Citrus for the Skin

Next time you feel like exfoliating, you may want to drop by the Montage Laguna Beach for the resort spa's new California Citrus Polish. The treatment uses a body scrub, which is made from organic citrus fruits, and Vichy shower heads to rinse the scrub away. The polish ends with a hydrating lotion.According to the Spa Montage, the fruits used in their citrus polish -- mainly, lemons, limes and oranges -- nourish the skin with antioxidants and provide many other benefits to the skin. The California Citrus Polish is $130 for a 30-minute treatment. While on the topic of citrus, Spa Montage also offers up its recipe for an at-home lemon/lime foot soak to soothe sore or tired feet.

Zen Water Experience

Zen Water Experience

When I think about pure relaxation, serenity and one-ness with the universe, I typically envision myself on a warm, well-cushioned massage table with numerous strong hands kneading out every single point of tension in my soon-to-be-knot-free body.Water normally doesn't play into my blissful relaxation fantasy. But maybe it will now.For my first blog entry, I decided to try something a little different. Not the usual deep tissue massage I so enjoy receiving. Not a facial.
