My final stop in the city was Bliss 49, located inside the ultra-luxe W Hotel, for my Triple Oxygen Treatment facial.
Upon arrival we were checked in and escorted to the locker room for changing into our robes. Once we changed, we lounged in the relaxation area and were too excited to see the tray of brownie bites and the variety of refreshments we'd read about over the years. After completing the consultation forms, we were escorted back to the treatment rooms by our estheticians.
The Triple Oxygen Treatment facial includes an intensive cleansing, exfoliating fruit acid wash, pre-extraction oxygen wrap, extractions, calming oxygen milk mask, hydrating enzyme pack and the vitaminized oxygen spray. The only part of the facial I opted out of were the extractions, which I leave to my regular esthetician. In it's place I was upgraded to the hydrating seaweed mask. The esthetician's effleurage movement was very smooth and very relaxing, and the neck, decollete, arm, hand and foot massages were fabulous. I felt so relaxed that I caught myself dozing off to sleep!
Being the beauty professional that I am, I did notice that my skin analysis was rushed, my lip gloss wasn't removed until mid-way through the service and I did notice that my mascara wasn't completely removed when I looked at my skin after the facial. I was surprised that my esthetician didn't suggest products for home use to maintain all the hard work she'd done.
I left with the Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing Mask and the Sleeping Peel Serum and I can't wait to start using them. My skin was glowing after the facial and still is- and I actually received compliments from those who would not have noticed otherwise! The facial was beyond amazing. I'll say that again- it was beyond amazing! I've had lots of facials and this was by far the best.
If you haven't experienced this, then you definitely should, because it's worth it!
Has anyone been to any of the Bliss spas? Any thoughts?

awww great recommendations for whenever i make it to ny! thanks!
I have been to the Bliss Spa-specifically that location. I used to work down the block. The chocolate pedicure is to die for. Hugs, M
I would highly recommend this spa. It is worth the trip and price. I have to say I did have the extractions although I was nervous. I did come out looking a little swollen but the next day my skin glowed and my pores were so small. To anyone who has been thinking about going definitely go. Bliss rocks!!
Glad you enjoyed it! I also was dozing off during that same facial I had at the Bliss in LA. Although the aesthecian I had thoroughly removed my makeup, and also asked me about products I used at home to adjust my facial accodingly!! She was awesome.
I would highly recommend the hair treatment as well!
To "Yummy411": I highly recommend it- it will not disappoint!
To "Dominican Enigma": I'm definitely going to make it a point to try a pedicure and the Ginger Rub the next time I visit. Thanks so much for the suggestion!
To Shalon: Thanks for sharing your experience- I totally agree!
To "Fuzkittie": Thanks so much for sharing your experience! And I will definitely try the hair treatment the next time!
