Beauty Swellness: It’s Beautylicious time again in Bloor-Yorkville

Pure + Simple products

It’s that time of year again — Bloor-Yorkville’s Beautylicious is taking place October 23 until November 2, 2014. Not familiar with it? More than 60 spas, salons, skin, health and wellness businesses in  the Bloor-Yorkville hood take part and during the event, you can book treatments at prix fix prices (at $30, $50, $75 or $125).

I got to test out (again) one of my faves in advance of Beautylicious — the facial at Pure + Simple. I swear it is one of the most relaxing facials I’ve ever had — try to see Shari Hodgins if you go, she can work some magic with your skin (I left with a glowing complexion and even though my stress is at an all-time high, I was able to relax and let go of some of the anxiety I have about the Chicago Marathon I ran on Sunday). Above are the products she used on my skin (my masque was a combination of three masques to help prepare my skin to take on the colder weather here for the fall season), but the skin experts at Pure + Simple will customize according to your skin’s needs, obvi.

I’d get booking if I were you — I’m sure appointments for treatments such as the facial at Pure + Simple and mud facials, enzyme facial treatments, and haircuts and more in the hood’s top beauty spots are filling up fast.

Beautylicious runs Oct. 23 to Nov. 2. You can find more details on the business and services available during the event here.

It’s Beautylicious time again!

Yes, maam, it’s Bloor-Yorkville’s Beautylicious again! From October 25 until November 4, 2012, you can check out more than 60 treatments at spas, salons, skin or health and wellness clinics for a fraction of the price. It’s a great opp to try a new spa treatment or try out a new salon if you’ve been looking for new stylist. New look for the season maybe?

I got a sneak peek at trying a few of the treatments offered and tested out a stress-fix massage at SITAMAA Day Spa (which left me feeling very unstressed…that is until I went right to another event afterwards and I was unexpectedly photographed and recorded with my crazy post-massage hair and greasy face!) and a Beautylicious focused facial at the Stillwater Spa (so lovely, I wish I could’ve spent twice as long in my aesthetician’s care).

(My stylist’s salon, Greg May Hair Architects, is also part of Beautylicious — big ups to Greg May!).

Be sure to book your Beautylicious appointments ASAP if you haven’t already so you don’t miss out!
