Tried It: Joanna Vargas Triple Crown Facial

After years of interviewing Joanna Vargas and hearing about her celebrity-coveted skincare studio, I finally had the chance to check it out for myself.  When asked what type of facial I wanted to try, the first one that came to my mind was her famous Triple Crown Facial, which uses microcurrent to help depuff and firm the skin.  It's known by celebs and the beauty industry as a workout for your face and most A-Listers like Julianne Moore, Naomi Watts, and Zac Posen to name a few, frequent the her services before big events.

Tried It: Heyday Facial

When we met at facial shop Heyday in NYC’s Flatiron District, co-founder and CEO Adam Ross proclaimed that “the spa industry is stuck in the ‘80s,”—and he knows how to fix it. Ross was inspired by how eyewear company Warby Parker shook up its own industry by offering high-quality glasses at affordable prices in an accessible, easy-to-navigate format. Now, Ross wants to do the same for facials with Heyday. After hearing that, you know we had to investigate how it works! Here’s everything you need to know about Ross’ vision for Heyday, plus what music he’ll never let play during a facial treatment.
