The Spa at Equinox has recently launched their newest treatment —The Diamond Facial, to add a little sparkle to that dull complexion. The new, luxurious 50-minute facial can replenish the skin by making it look supple, vibrant and youthful this spring.  “The Diamond Facial was designed to revitalize the skin by reducing the appearance of fine lines, signs of stress and fatigue,” says Nicole Vitale, senior director of The Spa @ Equinox.  “It’s the perfect service to add some ‘sparkle’ to dull skin that has suffered through a long and cold winter that is harsh and damaging to the skin.”

We tried the new treatment at the Gold Coast location on Michigan Avenue, and our skin has never looked better. We always love hearing about all of the amazing ingredients that comes with getting a facial. Our Esthetician Bella Marsico went through all of them with us along the way. This facial has Niacinamide with vitamin B3 (it will help strengthen the skin’s barrier) and is a great defense against wrinkles.  The Marine Collagen helps slow down the signs of aging from those annoying toxins, Sodium PCA is a strong hydrating agent, Aloe Barbadensis (aka Aloe Vera) helps heal the skin, Platinum powder helps to lock in moisture to the skin and Silver is an anti-bacterial agent that boosts blood circulation. “What I love most about this facial is the instant glow and radiance your skin gives off afterward, how super hydrated and smooth your skin feels, as well as, the firmness and uplifting feeling you get when you are finished,” says Bella Marsico, Spa @ Equinox Gold Coast Esthetician. We left with truly refreshed and beautiful skin. Members and non-members can enjoy this new treatment for $225. For more information, visit www.equinox.com to book your appointments.
