Pump You Up

Park Cities Skin Care Facials

Getting a gentle face massage, foaming wash, and moisturizer sure feels nice.

But paying $150 — and knowing that it’s basically what you do to yourself every day — doesn’t.

For a treatment that earns its keep, head to Park Cities Skin Care for one of Carrie Anderson’s pumped-up facials.

The simple process has no downtime (reapply that makeup, ladies) and starts by removing the top layer of dead skin and velus hair (those fuzzy blonde ones you won’t admit to). That’s followed by a light enzyme acid application (natural collagen, anyone?) and some dry ice, which will calm everything down to your chinny chin chin.

If your skin is still thirsty, Anderson will smooth on one of her specially formulated French vitamin cocktails. You’ll see and feel results.

Don’t try this at home, kids.
