I don’t even try to exfoliate once a week (or ever) so I can only imagine the tut tutting I’d receive from anyone giving me a facial.

Having admitted that, I think everyone deserves an occasional day of indulgence at a spa. But do I do it?

No way. I am far too self-conscious and worried I’ll get naked when I’m not supposed to or stay in my clothes when I should be nuded up.

I have been to the spa a couple of times for OTHER PEOPLE’s big events (bachelorette party, turning 40-holy-crap party) and every time?

I feel like a total outsider. Like everyone knows I don’t exfoliate.

So as far as I’m concerned? You handled your day like a rock star.

Carry on.

Well, actually you probably do. Because then you’ll be THRILLED with yourself compared to me!

I’d go weekly if I could spare the cash. The facials, though, dayum, they try to sell me crap. That’s their job 😉

I’ve had only 3 massages and 2 pedicures in my whole life…one of those massages was last week. I love them…but I feel selfish spending our hard-earned money on things like that. It seems like such a luxury item. If I could figure out how to crap money…I would totally do them once or twice a month. BUt until then, looks like I’m on the once every 4 or 5 year plan 🙁

I love how they professionally rip your hygiene down and tell you that the only way to remedy it is to “buy” a bazillion products. Sigh…

Though even with the great equalizer look I would think I look too young to possibly have the kind of money required for frequent spa visits!

Although, my masseuse actually printed out a page of exercises for me to do at home to untighten my shoulders, so maybe there are special basket cases like us who get more advice.

And get some face cream w/Vitamin A–works better than exfoliating.
