Grand Opening Spa Terre – Riviera Resort & Spa

-The opening of the dramatic Spa Terre ( not to be confused with the the Spa Terra designed by David Bury & Company Architects ) at the Meritage Resort and Spa in Napa which I have yet to visit because the public relations firm tells me they are completely booked – brings to Palm Springs a world class spa. With a competitive edge this 18-room spa , (the former Mediterranean Ballroom where the Glitterati once danced and pranced nearly a half century ago- and that means the likes of Frank Sinatra, Marilyn and Elvis) this Asian influence spa dances once again with curving corridors, lighting that can only be described as magical and treatments reflecting Balinese and Thai spa culture.

The brochure says “ all of our spa services are designed to replace the with of the world with a feeling of utter relaxation” – how timely this is. And how innovative to cultivate a new spa generation with Youth Salon Services for those twelve years old and younger in your life such as a Tutti-Fruti Manicure and Pedicure and a Little Miss Muffet Conditioning Treatment. For the upper generation there are serious spa services in the Global Rituals such as Cleopatra’s Milk Ritual ( $120 minutes/$250) and the Volcanic Earth Clay Ritual ( 90 minutes/$200). And there are the Couples’ Rooms where you can select from a choice of massages from Sacred Stone to the Native Desert Sage.

All services are subject to a 20 per cent gratuity. The stunning 406-room Riviera Resort has just debuted after a $70 million renovation resplendent in the retro inspired “Hollywood Regency Style”.

Just a hint: chocolate piping on white bedspreads-the new Riviera resonates with the glam of the 1960’s spiced with the vibrational tones of orange from the lobby to the pillow accents. Add a swirl shaped swimming pool, expensive dining at their signature restaurant, Circa 59 all reflecting 21^st century hip. Guestrooms and ambiance are not exactly family friendly and I have a feeling while not putting up a sign, this is more of an adult destination. I can’t envision a baby stroller or kids darting around the lavish outdoor furnishings by the chic pool something of an every day occurrence.

Welcome to Body Deli’s new blog! It has been a crazy busy year at The Body Deli. We have been busy in our cosmetic kitchen blending up the freshest and yummiest skin treats around. Plus we have launched a new website and expanded our brand into exciting new markets. Such as our expansion into the UK with our brand new Superfood Facial at London’s hippest beauty hotspot, Hari’s Salon and Spa.

We have even started working with doctors who are realizing the benefits of feeding the skin with pure all natural ingredients. This has been the year for star power. Stars like Kate Hudson, Goldie Hawn, Robert Downey Jr, Alicia Silverston, Agyness Deyn and Cobie Smulders have been so supportive. Kate even went so far as to name Body Deli as one of her favorite “green” beauty brands in her interview with Elle Magazine. Our message has been spread through great features in top publications such as; Elle, Shape, InStyle, InTouch Weekly, Cosmo Girl and LA Confidential.

It is an exciting time to be in the beauty business, trends are changing and people more and more are realizing that their skin is the largest organ of their body and feeding it the same high quality nutrition that they do internally is just as important. We are even more committed and passionate about searching the world over for the finest Superfoods to deliver true health giving results. Because a healthy body is a sexy and beautiful body. Building Body Deli into the freshest and most exciting brand around has been my partner, Margaret and my greatest joy. What is next…there is so many exciting plans to come next year. I can’t reveal all of our upcoming adventures, but a few hints will be bringing the brand to the fresh, obsessed culture of Japan, and introducing the best of the best supplements and raw foods.

It has always been our vision to see Body Deli grow into the ultimate lifestyle brand for everything a living body needs to thrive inside and out. It is exciting to see it evolve and we can’t wait to share every step of the way with our amazing fans. I would just like to take a moment and thank all of our passionate and loyal customers who make our jobs so much fun!

Have a beautiful day,
Cosmetic Chef
David A. Parker.
