Best Mid-Winter Facial

A dreamy new treatment at The Mandarin Oriental

The only thing that has taken more of a beating than my Sorel boots this blustery winter is my face. Freezing winds outside and arid air inside will leave anyone’s skin dull, parched, and decidedly not Fashion Week-ready. The solution: the new BioRadiance Facial at The Spa at the Mandarin Oriental New York, which uses products from the all-natural German skin care line Amala to impart an ultra-dewy complexion. My favorite part: The gentle, ultraslow face massage. Good luck staying conscious—I was awoken by my own snoring—but, thankfully, the results are dreamy, too.
