I've been making my lists and checking them twice already, but I haven't set foot in a store to make a dent in my shopping yet. Just the thought of dealing with thte crowds is overwhelming and stressful. Spas, like The Guerlain Spa at the Waldorf Astoria New York and its Guerlain Holiday Pop Up Shop, offer a much more pleasant option for ticking off friend and family gifts from the list. This festive storefront offers a full selection of Guerlain skincare, fragrance, and giftsets for purchase with added benefit of discounts in the spa upstairs as well as complimentary makeup touch ups and events. I was treated to a glam makeup application and skincare tips from spa experts, including spa director Angela Portella (pictured). Product engraving is available on Dec. 9 and for extra special gifts the Bottle Bling event on Dec. 17 allows guests to decorate fragrance bottles with Swarovski crystals—both are complimentary with any $100 purchase. With heavy foot traffic around the prestigious Park Avenue location, the pop up is bound to turn shoppers into spa-goers.
What is your spa introducing to entice new spa-goers?
