We think summer is the look-your-best season. C'mon: We know you've been squeezing in some extra-long gym sessions, putting together some perfect outfits, and maybe going on a lil' cleanse. But just cuz your clothes are on-point and your waistline is under control doesn't mean you can let the rest of your bod go to seed. To keep you well pruned and primed, we've rounded up three beauty treatments that are guaranteed to put an extra spring in your step. So, whether your looking for a special facial, a luxurious mani/pedi (clean and safe, too!), or a pain-free waxing, these local spots definitely deliver. Plus, our sweet deals make it that much easier to stop making excuses and get you off your kiester. You'll thank us later.
