"Few names evoke luxury quite like heritage skincare brand La Mer, so it’s only fitting that the line’s debut New York City spa be housed in a hotel with a similar reputation for extravagance: The Baccarat. Though the crystal-filled hotel is located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, just one step inside the decadent Spa de La Mer will send a wave of tranquility and relaxation over every visitor. Although the expansive checkered, marble-tiled pool is the most obvious source of water at this gorgeous spa, hydration remains the focal point of every treatment. The La Mer Miracle Broth Facial harnesses the power of the brand’s coveted Miracle Broth to optimize skin’s performance and bring it back to its healthiest state, and The La Mer Body Treatment combines shiatsu, acupressure, and Swedish massage techniques to enhance circulation, balance energies, and leave skin soft and smooth. The spa’s newest treatment, a 90-minute Red Carpet Facial, meanwhile, erases signs of aging with a revolutionary peptide complex that blocks muscle micro-contractions, resulting in a temporary, Botox-like effect." - Gabby Shacknai
