Believe it or not, it’s rare these days that head Spa Girl Sunny actually has time to spend a day at the spa (crazy, huh?). So when she decided to go, she went big and chose Well & Being Spa as the place to waste away a few valuable hours just hanging at the spa. […]

Agave, The Arizona Spa at The Westin Kierland Resort and Spa
An enchanting visit to Agave Spa at Westin Kierland’s grand resort. Okay, I admit it, I love my job. The endless hours hunched over the computer, the backs of my legs stuck to the fake leather of my creaky desk chair, are all worth it on days like today. ‘Cause today, I went to the […]
Spa Avania at Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort and Spa at Gainey Ranch
Spa Avania at the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale is undeniably gorgeous in its architecture and decor, and the nurturing time-of-day philosophy is undoubtedly brilliant. But I’d have to peg the people — from the reception staff to the highly skilled therapists — as the primary reason for the Avania experience being so emotionally elevating and memorable. […]
Pure Vanity Spa
Pain FREE laser hair removal? Really? Yes, really! Read on! If I had $200 and only two hours to spend it, I can guarantee Pure Vanity Spa would be the place I’d go. For a business in the Grayhawk neighborhood of North Scottsdale, this day spa takes the cake for great prices and an even greater […]
Sleekskin Aesthetics
Bliss meets serious skincare therapy at Sleekskin! I visited Sleekskin Aestheics for a facial treatment with the owner Debbie Davis, who runs the uber successful, one-woman show in Scottsdale. With more than 15 years experience as a licensed aesthetician, Debbie might not openly admit it, but she is known as quite the miracle worker. Don’t believe […]
Glow Goddess
Known for her airbrush tanning, I visited the Glow Goddess (aka, Logan) for a serious skincare overhaul. A beauty junkie who actually does all of her treatments on herself, Logan is your girl if you want results but don’t have a ton of time. The chic, comfy studio is located right on the 5th Avenue strip […]
Centre for Well-Being at The Phoenician
Arizona Spa Girls review of the Centre for Well-Being at The Phoenician. The Centre for Well-Being at The Phoenician will always be a sentimental favorite among all the spas that I’ve been lucky enough to visit. One, because it was the first spa that I’ve ever been to and two, because it was the very […]
Bronzeology
Not all airbrush tans are created equal. Some might leave you feeling icky, like you’ve just rolled around in maple syrup and dirt. Others could make you look like a Jim Henson Muppet. But if they’re done right, like the custom airbrush tanning services from Bronzeology, you’ll leave looking and feeling like your skin has […]
One Love Boutique Spa
Spa Girls head to One Love Boutique Spa in Scottsdale to road test their signature “hot date” facial! To sum it up in one sentence, I was thrilled from head to toe with my experience at One Love Boutique Spa in Scottsdale. First I fell in love with its location at Scottsdale’s Salon Studios because […]
Maggie’s European Skin Care
There's just something about Maggie. It had been nearly 7 years since I last visited her at the resort spa where she still works a few days a week. I had fallen head over heels for her thorough yet oh-so relaxing facials, her warm and compassionate sensibility, and her sincere concern for the condition of […]
