Visit The Savon Spa
With vegan pedicures, organic scrubs and skin treatments using everything from chamomile to sea-buckthorn berry, Savon isn’t your run-of-the-mill spa. An experience here starts with admiring the glass chandeliers and dainty white furniture dotting the space. Even the pedicure room shines with a wall sconce from Possini featuring cascading crystals that look like glittering rainfall. Besides offering facials, manicures, pedicures, massages and waxing, Savon is also part medical spa. They offer everything from laser hair removal to lash-plumping Latisse.

Financial Tip Of The Day
Cancel Unused Club Memberships
Are you paying dues at a club that you never use? Like, for instance, a gym membership or a country club membership? Cancel these club memberships, even if you think you might use them again someday – you can always renew the membership at a later date if it turns out that you actually do miss it.
