UK based Amarya is a spectacular eco spa that also shines as a stunning example of international organic beauty shops today. At Amarya they only sell organic and natural beauty products that are 100% free from chemicals and all have been certified the Soil Association, Ecocert and BDIH.
All Amarya’s organic product offerings are online, yet if you live in the UK, go check out their in store organic lines and book a session if you have the time. They offer an exotic array of treatments at their exclusive eco spa.

I freely admit to being one of those people who counts almost any form of responsible hedonism and self-indulgence in my top 10 life essentials; right up there alongside food, water, oxygen, friends and family. Some might call it shallow. I call it necessary. It’s with great excitement and interest then, that I recently learned of Phyto Universe in Manhattan, a spa with a twist. Phyto is the only spa primarily focused on the treatment and care of hair. The center features two diagnostic stations where PHYTO experts analyze the hair and scalp with a “PHYTOscope” - the scope magnifies the hair and scalp 200 times in order to properly diagnose its health and for technicians to offer targeted solutions - all within the serene walls of nine private cabins that have been separated by antique 14th century, French Chateau shutters, and a huge botanical wall bursting with plant life.
