Beautylicious - Yorkville spas have never been so affordable!

Toronto spa lovers, if you didn't make it to Beautylicious last year, you have to get there this year, it's bigger and better than ever!
For those not familiar with what it is, many of the salons and spas in the Bloor-Yorkville area offer consumers set value-priced packages and services for a set period of time. There is a wide array of hair, spa, skin and health & wellness service packages available at four set prices - $25, $50, $75 and $125 in four categories: hair (hair/colour/cut/style); spa (includes massage and/or facial and/or mani/pedi); skin (non-invasive procedures including Botox, Restylane or chemical peel); and Health & Wellness (nutrition services, dental, chiropractic services)

There are too many packages for me to even begin to tell you about but you can find all the event info at www.bloor-yorkville.com with details of all the participating spas and salons as well as the packages available.  But I will share with you a few of the ones I have my eye on as well as a few that I have tried already and can recommend:

Skin Vitality - 11 Yorkville Avenue - 416-969-9669 is offering $125 Fraxel, a non-surgical skin resurfacing procedure which helps correct wrinkles, pigment, acne and surgical scars as well as improving tone and texture - you can read all about my fun with Fraxel here.

Jeanet Spa & Salon - 140 Yorkville Avenue, 2nd Floor - 416-921-2996 has a $75 Enviro-Recovery Vitamin Infused Facial that will relax the hell out of you! You can read about mine here.

Marc Anthony Salon - 38 Avenue Road - 416-413-1521 has an amazing $125 offering of an all-over colour, deep conditioning treatment, haircut and style (for new clients only).  You can read about my haircut there with Byron here.

Taz Hair Co. - 11 Yorkville Avenue - 416-922-6060 has a great $75 or $125 package involving colour and/or highlights - snag Susan if you can, she's great and they use the INOA colour there which has to be experienced to be believed!  You can read my review here.

Pure + Simple - 41 Avenue Road - 416-924-6555 - I can't say enough about the deluxe sea salt microdermabrasion so you will just have to go an experience it for yourself for $125!  You can read the review here.

and don't miss out on seeing Dr. Cory Torgerson - Facial Cosmetic Surgery - 70 Yorkville Avenue, Suite 31 - 647-343-0207 - who is offering special promotional prices on Restylane or Perlane injectable fillers as well as Botox.  If you aren't ready for that yet, he is also offering a complimentary consultation and 3D photo image session - check out what you could look like after a bit (or a lot) of work!  I did it and it was fun, you can check out the post here.

What I think sounds interesting :

Spa at the Windsor Arms Hotel - 18 St. Thomas Street - 416-934-6031 - for $50 you can get a Raw Earth Pedicure which involves something called a volcanic clay hydrating foot mask - I don't know how I could pass up the chance to stick my feet in a volcano!

Xtreme Lashes Inc. - 113 Yorkville Avenue - 416-410-8152 - is offering lash extensions for $75 which is a hell of a deal! I have had extensions before and it's worth doing at least once!

Grey May Hair Architects - 122 Cumberland Street, 2nd Floor - 416-920-8892 - for $125 you can get a haircut, blow-dry and PM shines with Greg May himself - after hearing people rave about him all the time, this is really something I should do!

Check it out at www.bloor-yorkville.com  and if you're going to book, do it soon, they book up fast and it only runs October 27-November 6!
