Take a look at a few affordable solutions that our favorite celebrities enjoy as well as some insight from the International Spa Association.   For instance, according to the ISPA 2010 U.S. Spa Industry Study, skin care products are sold in 97 percent of all spas and many average $43 retail.  Chances are that your favorite spa has some of these.  Over the next few days I’ll be including more ideas so stay in touch and remember to be mindful and enjoy every moment of your experience.

Let’s begin with the two ‘must have’ items from Skin Authority.  The Wrinkle Reversing Serum ($125) instantly plumps and the Dramatic Eye Lift ($120) will get you camera ready as well.  Stars including Samantha Brown, Ellen K and Kevin Sorbo love the line.

Eminence Organics fans like Alicia Silverstone and Katherine Heigl may consider the Cinnamon Kiss Plumper ($26 retail) and you’ll like the tingle of the natural ingredient of cinnamon, which plumps your lips.  Then there’s the Lime Stimulating Masque ($64 retail) to revitalize your complexion while improving blemish prone areas due to phytohormones and vitamins found in the lime.

Just like Jessica Simpson, I’m also a fan of Jurlique’s Rosewater Balancing Mist ($21 retail). 
Marshmallow, rose and grapefruit work together to help balance your skin and the scent is so fragrant.

And Murad – they sent A-list stars nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe this year like Natalie Portman, Annette Bening and Nicole Kidman their Award-Season Survival Kit.   It includes the Renewing Cleansing Cream ($35) to exfoliate, the Hyro-Dynamic Ultimate Moisture ($65) to keep your skin glowing all night and the Sleep Reform Dietary Supplements ($49.50) to help encourage sleep while improving the cellular renewal process.
