A Ten Handed Massage

Imagine having five people massage you at once?  Seems like a dream full of guilty pleasures, but it can be your reality if you visit the Qua Baths and Spa at Caesars in Atlantic City, NJ.  I first heard about this fifty-fingered massage on Urban Daddy, but thought it was too good to be true so I had to investigate for myself.  

The treatment, called the Deici Mani, is much more than what Urban Daddy makes it out to be.  (Those dirty boys!)  For three and a half hours four massage therapists and one esthetician are on hand to perform a series of spa treatments including a massage, vichy shower and facial.

The massage does occupy most of the time... so I had to ask... can you request five men?  The answer: Almost.  You can have four male massage therapists, but most of their esthetician are woman so there would have to be a women involved.  I guess we can't be too greedy!

As part of the package, you also receive a $1,000 credit towards any of the stores in the Caesar's Pier Shops including Burberry, Gucci and Louis Vuitton, personalized robe and slippers and basket of fine products.

The treatment costs a whopping $5,000, but that three and a half hours of pleasure and pampering may be well worth it.  If you hit it big on the craps table, maybe you'll consider treating yourself.  Appointments need to be made 24 hours in advance, but if you're requesting four guys, give them a little more time to rally up the troops!

Hollywood's Secret to Flawless Skin

After experiencing LA for the first time last week, I have to say I've never seen so many beautiful people, both men and women, in one area at the same time before.   Maybe that's because I was gallivanting on Rodeo Drive to take in "the scene," but as soon as I got home, I had to do some investigative work on how they keep up their stunning looks.  One of the answers: Face to Face Los Angeles in Studio City.

Hef's leading ladies from "The Girls Next Door" have gotten facials at the salon before and Kendra regularly visits the salon for the Iderm facial, which rejuvenate the skin from the inside out.  With her new hubby and reality show, she has to keep her skin in prime condition!  She even hosted her pre-bachelorette party there.

Fortunately for those of us who don't live in Cali, Face to Face Los Angeles has a product line available online so we can all have glowing skin like the rare breed of people I spotted on Rodeo Drive!  

Sperm... Good for Your Skin

Yes, you read it right.  Sperm is good for your skin, well spermine that is.  I was sitting at the Townhouse Spa with President, Jamie Ahn and almost spit out my tea when she told me about this new facial the spa was offering cleverly called the "Babyface Facial."  

I came to find that spermine is a natural antioxidant that protects against free radicals and is found in places like the liver, and of course, in seminal fluid. Back in 2001, a bio-tech company called Bioforskning in Norway obtained the patent on spermine after it's benefits on the skin were discovered by Norwegian scientists at the University of Tromso. (I wonder how this discovery came about... hmmm...)

Like anyone, I wasn't so sure having spermine on my face would be very pleasurable, but Jamie convinced me otherwise.  It turns out spermine is 30 times stronger than Vitamin E, delays aging of the cells by 25%, protects the skin against UV damage, renders free radicals and stimulates the production of collagen.  I'm in!

Exclusive in the US to the Townhouse Spa and Acqua Beauty Bar in NYC, "The Babyface Facial" lasts 75 minutes and costs $250.
