Masque Magazine

Oh yes!

Goldy is back, and I’ve decided to return with a self indulging post about 24k Gold Facials – yes ladies, your facial can be gilded and gleaming. UMO Salon, located in Tokyo, introduced its 24k Gold facial in 2007. It’s also being offered all over the world (including the United States). For those of us who live in NY, get UMO products for a Gold facial Mask at the NY Plaza Hotel.

Some of the benefits of the Gold Facial Treatment include:
Firmer skin
Improved Tone
Improved Texture
Reduce Wrinkles
Stimulate blood circulation

So treat yourself and your girlfriends to a 24K gold facial today. Midas would be proud!

Hosted by Signette, this block party is to showcase Aysha Saeed’s Spring/Summer Collection. To celebrate the occassion, she’ll be offering 75% off her retail prices! There will also be free makeovers from DuWop Cosmetics and free fitness consultations to get that sexy summer body on track. Taking place tomorrow, June 2nd, at Ulysses (58 Stone Street & Mill Lane), the event will also have menus with prices slashed down – we’re talking $9 martinis and $12 calamari here! Take a look at the flyer for more deets if interested.

Thanks Christine!

If you love… ahem… Sex andddd the City and the show too (haha), then you will love this bus tour.  Brought to you by Zerve.com, this bus tour brings together your four favorite city girls: Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte, and lets you in on all the show’s city secrets.  This tour is fun for native New-Yorkers and tourist alike (not to mention the tour guides give great suggestions for places to visit and tips on how to enjoy Manhattan after you leave the bus!).

I took my sister on this tour for her birthday, but this can be a cool bachelorette party starter.  Visit the place where Charlotte brought “The Rabbit”, sip cosmos just like the famous chicas and don’t forget to remember that you are FABULOUS!

Make sure to visit www.zerve.com if you are interested.  There are group rates available and other tours that are more guy – friendly.

The annual event, Curves & Cocktails, was nothing short of fabulous! The positive energy and women feeling good was a surefire success, and with all of the money made a good, healthy donation is being made to One in Three Women. Editor in Chief of Plus Model Magazine Madeline Figueroa-Jones, Model Mia Amber, Model Christina Mendez and Blissful Elegance CEO Denise Best were all honored with awards. The vendors included Booty Parlor, Sevy Bags, L’elephant Rose, and much more. 

Congratulations to Belle Noir Magazine for a job well done and we look forward to next year!

Just a reminder, the Curves & Cocktails event will be going on this Saturday, April 25. There will be raffles every hour, VIP stuffed goodie bags, complimentary cocktails from ToMa Vodka, and plenty of vendors. Hosted by Belle Noir Magazine, proceeds from the event will go to One in Three, a global campaign raising awareness about violence against women. Visit curvesandcocktails.com today to get your tickets before it’s too late. See you there!

It’s that time of year again (it only happens twice)…. Spring Spa Week!! It’s going on from April 13th – 19th, 2009.

Spa Week is a marketing tool for spas in major cities to obtain new clients, with hopes they will love the services enough to continue visiting and paying full price for treatments. It is also a way for new spa goers and frequent luxury-seekers to feel fabulous and relaxed without breaking the bank.

Choose from the list of spas located in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Westchester, Hudson Valley, Long Island and Staten Island… your options are endless. Whether the service you seek is for embarrassing hair removal, pilates sessions, a bird-poop facial (at  Shizuka New York Day Spa for those interested), or the ever-popular relaxing deep tissue massage,  there is a spa that will accommodate your need for only $50/treatment.

Another “extra” for this season’s spa week is that most spas arer EXTENDING their special $50 treatments throughout the month of April! What a treat!

Make your appointment soon, as this is a popular event and appointments go fast.
