Bluemercury Apothecary Spa

You laugh in the face of One Size Fits All. (That mitten? This hand? Ha!)

Still, you allow your friendly neighborhood facialist to force her limited line of beauty products upon your skin.

Meet your match at Bluemercury. The recently opened emporium of pretty from Georgetown is now taking appointments for spa services for Friday and beyond. And when it comes to tweaking a treatment or recommending a new regimen, their aestheticians and cosmetic experts have the run of the heavenly high-end apothecary.

So whether you go in for a Fusion Facial (glycolic peel plus vitamin oxygen blast) or a body polish, you can feel safe knowing that they have the likes of Dermalogica, SkinCeuticals, and MD Skincare medi-solutions; nature-loving Fresh, REN, and Red Flower beauty lines; and Laura Mercier and Trish McEvoy makeup at their fingertips.

They’ll be sure to make it fit like a glove.

Bluemercury Apothecary Spa, 10250 Santa Monica Boulevard, between Avenue of the Stars and Century Park West, Century City (310-553-4440 or bluemercury.com).
