Anyone who has been following the Real Housewives of New York City would probably agree that this season’s cast was one for the books, ensuring that there never was a dull moment.

Last Monday’s reunion was just as drama-filled, if not more so, than the turbulent season itself. Our five favorite moments:

1. Carole calling out LuAnn for overusing her Countess title.

2. Andy addressing Heather’s “holla” declaration during the show intro.

3. Aviva admitting she flew off the hinge in St. Barths.

4. The cast discussing their various definitions of “white trash.”

5. Heather and Ramona apologizing (sort of) and moving forward.

Looks like Bravo has even more drama in store this coming Monday with part 2 of the reunion. That’s when LuAnn will finally be confronted about her after-hours tryst with the Johnny Depp look-a-like. We can’t even wait!

Aside from the low-blows and call-outs, one thing is for certain: these housewives are looking more fierce and fabulous than ever! In true New York fashion, they are brutally honest and admit that cosmetic procedures help them to stay looking youthful.

Whether you’re a fan of the RHONYC or just want in on their anti-aging secrets, you can get “The Real Housewife” Illuma-Glow HydraFacial (only $50 during Spa Week) at Advanced Laser and Medical Spa of Rye. We think Andy Cohen deserves a treatment after that exhausting reunion!

Emmy Awards 2012: Celeb Beauty Tricks

September 21, 2012 | By

Okay, we’ll admit it – we love a good televised award show! And we’re dying to see TV’s biggest stars turn it out at the Emmy Awards this weekend. From fabulous dresses to sparkly jewels, it’s always exciting to see who will land on the best dressed list… and who will be roasted by Joan.

One thing is for certain: No celeb would be able to nail a red carpet ensemble without a little (er, a lot) of preparation. And we’re not just talking about endless hours at the gym.

Hollywood’s elite have access to the priciest primping treatments, and they’re indulging from head to toe before every event — trust us. After all, HD cameras are not forgiving. Here are a few Hollywood staple beauty treatments that you can get during Spa Week for a LOT cheaper:

Hollywood Hair Splurge: Kerastase Treatments, Blowouts

Newly engaged Jennifer Aniston has a lot to celebrate this year, and we hope to finally get a glimpse of her and fiancé Justin Theroux on the red carpet together. At least we know for sure that her gorgeous hair will be in attendance! To mimic the look try a blowout and Kerastase treatment, which will leave your strands silky smooth and full of shine.

Spa Week Steal: Ardan MedSpa + Salon: $50 for a Wash, Cut, Kerastase Hair Treatment and Blowout

Hollywood Slimming Splurge: Sudatonic Treatments, Body Wraps

TV’s funniest girl, Tina Fey, once told The Today Show that just like everyone else, she wears shapewear to smooth things out. But many stars go even further by hitting the spa for slimming wraps and Sudatonic treatments.

Spa Week Steal: Adara Spa: $50 for a 60 min Sudatonic Slimming Wrap

Hollywood Hand Splurge: A Flawless Mani/Pedi

This Gossip Girl is THE topic of conversation following her surprise marriage to Ryan Reynolds. One thing is for sure, everyone is angling for a look at the ring, so we know her manicure will be flawless! After all, you can’t show up at the Emmy Awards with a chipped manicure, giant engagement ring or not.

Spa Week Steal: Angel’s Touch Skincare & Wellness: $50 for a 60 min Champagne Rose Manicure and Pedicure

Hollywood Glow Splurge: A Spray Tan

We’re so envious of Mila’s glowing complexion — she always looks fresh and sunkissed! We would never risk damaging our skin in a dangerous tanning bed, but we’re all for the spray tan treatments so many stars rely on to stay bronzed.

Spa Week Steal: Facelogic – Morristown: $50 for a Serious of Three Airbrush Spray Tans

Hollywood Hairless Splurge: A Full Leg Wax

Heidi Klum is known for donning short dresses at award shows, and who could blame her? Her ridiculously long legs are always perfectly smooth in a way only capable through regular waxing.

Spa Week Steal:  Bangz Salon & Wellness Spa: $50 for a 50 min Full Leg Wax

Hollywood Smile Splurge: Lip Injections

Christina Hendricks is always voluptuous and her lips are no exception. Many stars who weren’t born so lucky rely on lip injections for smiles big enough for the Big Screen and Small Screen alike.

Spa Week Steal: CosMedica: $50 for Pelleve Rejuvenating Lip Treatment

Hollywood Anti-Aging Splurge: Botox

Despite her recent divorce, Katie Holmes has never looked better – does she ever age?! For those of you that weren’t blessed with Katie’s magical genetics, you can freeze those lines with Botox injections  like many of Katie’s Hollywood counterparts.

Spa Week Steal: Gotham Beauty Lounge: $50 for 10 Units of Botox

Celebrity Spa Arrest: Lady Gaga’s Turquoise Body Hair

June 21, 2011 | By

Celebrity Suspect: Lady Gaga

Case: What has the Haus of Gaga done now? At Toronto’s Much Music Awards, Gagaloo sang “Hair” while rocking some outrageous turquoise body fuzz. We call this new trend the “Private Waterfall” look, with the emphasis on private. We love the wig, the pits are a bit unsettling, but acceptable only because it’s Gaga, but the turquoise merkin down below? Hold please.

Spa Treatment Sentencing: We hope these hair pieces are temporary and removable, however… there is a possibility that Gaga has gone, as the French say: au natural. In any case, we sentence her to multiple laser hair removal treatments for underarm and bikini line. Since we know Gaga has been rapid-fire switching up her look these days (long and grey, Cruella DeVille, body modifications), we (the judge and jury) recommend she take full advantage of TheRightDeal that launches tomorrow morning at 9 am. OH yes we’re spilling it early… 6 (SIX!) Laser Hair Removal Treatments at Randee Elaine Spa and Laser Center in NYC (reg. $450-$1500) for just $199. She could save up to $1,300 and use that money to buy more sunglasses and hair bows (aka trends we the jury approve of).

Celebrity Spa Arrest: Serena Williams

March 3, 2011 | By


Celebrity Suspect: Serena Williams

Case: This week America’s tennis darling reminded us once again how important it is to be aware of our health. If you frequent celebrity blogs then you’ve seen pictures of Serena wobbling around with her foot in a cast due to an earlier injury. Just last Sunday the world champion tennis pro mingled amongst the Hollywood elite at Vanity Fair’s Post Oscar party and everything appeared to be fine. Out of the blue Serena suffered a pulmonary embolism proving that even athletes can suffer traumatic health scares. Today she released a statement to People Magazine about her condition.

“Thank you everyone for all of your prayers, concerns, and support,” the star, 29, tells PEOPLE in a statement. “This has been extremely hard, scary, and disappointing. I am doing better, I’m at home now and working with my doctors to keep everything under control.”

Spa Treatment Sentencing: A pulmonary embolism is caused by blood clots that travel to your lungs from another part of your body — most commonly, your legs. We’re sentencing Serena to Cariño Massage in West Hollywood to get Three 60 Minute Sessions Carino Massages available for $160 in our spa deals this month. Getting regular massages is one of the best ways to maintain healthy blood circulation.

Celebrity Spa Arrest: Carmelo Anthony

February 22, 2011 | By


Celebrity Suspect:

Carmelo Anthony

Case: If there is one thing to be said about Knick fans–they are truly die hard and unwavering believers of the potential of their team. Even when things were down they managed to keep the faith. Recently they have begun to see brighter days by acquiring Amar’e Stoudemire and well, last night was also a good time to be a Knick. After a tri-team tug-of-war, New York was able to bring the West Coast All Star, Carmelo Anthony back home to his roots. Before his decision was publicly announced he had to dodge the tough badgering from Conan who just wouldn’t let up on his decision.


Spa Treatment Sentencing: For keeping his cool under an immense amount of pressure Carmelo definitely deserves some spa time. To get New York’s new star player loose and ready for the court, we’re sending him to Aveda Red Bell Spa in Hicksville, New York for a 60 Min Four-Hands Chakra Balancing Massage $139.95, normally $240 as part of our spa deals.
