Holiday Memories and Those Pesky Resolutions

The holiday season has once again departed leaving only happy memories in its wake. And … one or two disaster stories that are transforming into anecdotes as we follow the ancient showbiz formula: Tragedy + Time = Comedy.

At the Deep we collect touching moments like merit badges on a Girl Scout’s sash. Our collective spirits soar when familiar faces return claiming: “This is where I always find the best gifts – even for the most challenging on my list.”

This year I assisted an adult daughter calling from Boston in setting up the gift of a makeup class for her 89-year-old mother. Mom had decided it was time, after a lifetime of going au naturel, to accept a little cosmetic assistance.

Apparently some other residents in her retirement community were ‘dolling it up’ and she didn’t want to miss the parade. Mother and daughter had done some DIY tutorials via their phones and Facetime, and Skin Deep was only too happy to provide the finishing touches.

With all that feel-good swirling through our system – it’s downright criminal how New Year’s resolutions shut down the party by demanding self-improvement. Surely the game is rigged, seeing as we’re asked to do this following a season abundant with sugarplums and intoxicants? The whole cycle feels suspect.

At the Deep we believe the best resolution you can make is: Be good to yourself.
That’s an arena we know a little something about. Because after all the hoopla and fanfare there’s nothing quite so rewarding as a little self-love.

A visit to the Deep’s luxurious salons – for a rejuvenating facial, relaxing massage, gorgeous manicure or pedicure, a new hairstyle or a chance to freshen up your makeup – will leave you feeling both beautiful and appreciated.

Because we truly appreciate your patronage and we’re standing by to say: Thank You!
