Harmonia Healing Arts Spa
The exotic ingredients in the Moisturizing Body Treatment at this holistic spa will invigorate and revive skin—think algae and sea-salt exfoliation, followed by a massage scented with coriander, African geranium, and patchouli. 411–13 E. Lancaster Ave., Wayne, 610-688-1007; harmoniaspa.com
Louis Christian Wayne Robert Salon and Spa
For the ultimate soft skin, try a paraffin facial. It begins like a signature facial, but it is topped off by a serum and paraffin wax mask for a youthful complexion. Bonus: Your hands will receive a dip in the wax, too. 1990 Rte. 70 E., Cherry Hill, NJ, 856-751-2233; lcwrsalonandspa.com
Pileggi on the Square
The nourishing Elemis Exotic Frangipani Body Nourish Wrap incorporates intoxicating ingredients, including Tahitian coconut and frangipani blossoms that infuse skin with moisture and softness. 717 Walnut St., 215-627-0565; pileggisalon.com
Oggi Salon & Spa
For severely dry skin, stop by Oggi for the Comfort Mini- Facial, a treatment free of steam and extractions (which can irritate sensitive skin) that includes a warm paraffin mask. Esthetician Brenda Troutman recommends adding a slather of the cell-restoring Guinot’s Age Nutritive Face cream afterward. 1700 Locust St., 215-735-0707; oggisalonandspa.com
Jay Michael Salon and Spa
Give Jay Michael’s new Rise skincare line a try with the JM Signature Facial. Products like the Orange Blossom Cleansing Milk, Hydrating Milk and Honey Masque, and Botanical Bio- Peptide Cream make for a superior experience. 1600 Arch St., 215-814-8000; jaymichael.com
Terme Di Aroma
Ocean water is excellent for skin, but a Marine Body Wrap is a fine substitute during the off-season. Mineral-rich marine clay is applied to skin, while a hydrating mini facial keeps your face looking fresh. 32 N. Third St., 215-829-9769; termediaroma.com
Bluemercury
Prepare skin for the cooler months ahead with the Brightening Facial: Dead cells are removed and pores unclogged, after which your new, healthy skin is given a boost of moisture and antioxidants with a dose of vitamin C. 100 E. Lancaster Ave., Wayne, 610-225-0111; bluemercury.com
Rescue Rittenhouse Spa
Esthetician and owner Danuta Mieloch is revered across the area for her expert facials.

Richel D’Ambra Spa and Salon
Swing by the spa at The Ritz- Carlton for one of D’Ambra’s specialized facials. The customized treatments promise to revive and rejuvenate skin of any age. D’Ambra, the Philly native for whom the spa is named, trains each of her estheticians to perform facials, as well as waxing, massage, and body treatments. 10 Avenue of the Arts, 215-523- 8035; richeldambra.com
