Best Beauty Spots Around NYC

Whether in a rush, in need of some extra pampering or just a fun girls’ activity, New York City has some of the best beauty experts in the world to help do just that. Today, I’m sharing my favorite beauty spots around the city that I rely on to help me look and feel my absolute best!

BLOWOUTS
Dry Bar: A blowout is such a treat and always the perfect pick me up. I know I can always rely on Dry Bar for a relaxing hour of blown out locks, a chick flick and a glass of champagne after a long day.

STYLING
Dream Dry: For those times you’re looking for a fun braid or hairstyle, I love to head to Dream Dry. They create the perfect crown braid, which is ideal for hot summer city days.

SHORT ON TIME
GLAMSQUAD: One of the best things about living in NYC is almost everything can be delivered to you, and that even means a blowout. With the GLAMSQUAD app, you can have a hair stylist, makeup artist or nail artist come to your apartment and get you ready for whatever event you may have that night.

MAKEUP
Blushington: If you’re looking to get pampered and prepped for a big night, Blushington is the place to go to for a flawless face. Their makeup artists will give you

NAILS
Valley Nails: When it comes to nails, I usually paint my own during the week but for a fun mani, I trust the pros. At Valley, they can do any nail art you can imagine – from marble, to silver stars to painted designs – and it’s the perfect pop of fun for a special event.

BROWS AND WAXING
Benefit: Benefit has been my go-to ever since college and their techs are still the only people I trust with my brows. Another reason I love going to their pink stores is I can always quickly book an appointment at one of their many locations so I’m looking my best before a date or busy weekend.

FACIALS AND MASSAGE
Mario Badescu: I like to clean up my skin with a facial every two months, and Mario Badescu has been my go-to since I moved to NYC almost three years ago. After deep cleaning my pores, they also add any additional treatments my skin may need then like a moisturizing mask or Vitamin-C mask. The best part is it’s always under $100 so glowing skin can be a steal too!

Bliss: With working out and living in NYC, my body always seems to have new aches and pains. I usually stop by my neighborhood nail salon for a quick 15 minute massage during the week, but when I need a deep tissue massage, I head to Bliss. A hour massage of getting out the kinks and knots is one of my favorite things to do on the weekend and one at Bliss is always such a treat.
