While magazines show us how celebrities are “just like us” by revealing that they do, in fact, go to Starbucks, walk their dogs and pay parking meters, what we’re really interested in is how we can live spa just like a celeb. Celebrities indulge in the finest luxuries to get red carpet-ready, and they also have their regular spa routines that involve frequent massages, waxes and facials. While they may want us to believe they are naturally fresh faced and glowing, we know it’s just because they’ve been getting the works at the spa. Now, YOU can spa like an A-lister on a regular-person budget.
We’re revealing our Spa Week spas’ celebrity clientele, and we even got the scoop on some of the spa treatments they get. Go take advantage of the celeb worthy $50 spa treatments you can spoil yourself with, listed below. Spa Weekers: They’re just like stars!

The Guinness Book of World Records seeks out the “officially amazing.” There’s a category for everything. One record that tickled our fancy: Australia’s spa-capital Daylesford rubbed its way to the world record for the Largest Simultaneous Massage. In 2010 at Lavandula Lavender, 263 qualified massage therapists and 263 lucky volunteers gathered for a stress-less record-breaking event. And there’s more where that came from.
This month, ELLE Magazine is taking its fashion, beauty and wellness lifestyle prowess one holistic step further; the monthly is opening up ELLE Spa at the Eden Roc Rennaissance in Miami Beach, Florida. This joint venture is the first for Elle and an unprecedented partnership between a media property and a luxury resort.
The spa, with a Mediterranean-style décor and floor to ceiling windows, will offer way more than massages and facials—it will be a full 22,000 square foot facility of editorially realized health and beauty: A 24-hour fitness center with oceanfront views, a group exercise studio with Pilates, yoga and stretching, a Scrub & Polish Bar with Mixologist, and a full service hair and nail salon. Separate mens and ladies spa wet lounges with keyless lockers, whirlpools, cold plunges, steam rooms, saunas and hyrdo-experience showers will lead to a sleek Oceanfront Relaxation Lounge with wet bar.
