The Most Expensive (but Healthiest) Sleeping Bag Ever

It might look scary (like a body bag that was too short for the victim) but this tinfoil-like sleeping bag has a lot going on that you might want to try. It's part of the Oxygen Detox System from 02 Planet, which claims to relax you, increase energy, and slow the signs of aging by detoxing and oxygenating your body. The system provides a steam sauna, water jets for massage, oxygen misting therapy, and this infrared sauna blanket. Gotta have the incredible O2 Planet Oxygen Detox System? Lucky you, it's on sale right now for just $4,595.

10 of the Strangest Spa Treatments

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Services, Spas

Bird dropping facials and snake massages may sound like something straight out of an episode of Fear Factor, but they're really part of the growing list of strange options you might have at a luxury spa near you. An ancient Japanese secret often used by Geishas and available at Diamond Hawaii Resort and Spa in Maui is a facial that starts with Nightingale excrement, which is reportedly full of enzymes that help keep the skin smooth, clear, and white. Or maybe a Hakali massage is more your style at Apuane Spa at the Four Seasons Resort Punta Minta, Mexico, where spine-free cactus paddles are used to rub in an alcohol called 'pulque,' which comes from the agave plant and is in the tequila family.

Other strange spa experiences that might trip your detox trigger include snake massages (exactly what they sound like -- snakes slithering up and down your back!), getting yourself covered head-to-toe in caviar, soaking in a huge tub of dark beer, and "cupping" -- a process where several cups are placed strategically along your back and then lit on fire to create suction.

Fear Factor or not, some of these sound awesome! (Some, not all...)

Beau Monde, Luxury Rehab

Filed under: Journeys

In the wake of Mel Gibson's quick dash to rehab, let's take a look at one of the places where the rich and famous get clean. Beau Monde offers rehab programs that are more like luxury hotel visits. Cushy robes, Frette sheets, spa meals and gorgeous views are just part of the Beau Monde experience. The OC Register reports on the rehab chain which has locations in Laguna Beach, Newport Beach and the Hollywood Hills. The rehab facilities are located in private houses which take only a few people at a time. Ultra-private, ultra-personal and ultra-posh the programs offer those who can afford them a chance to get clean in style without a huge disruption to their lives. They are also one of the most expensive rehabs, a four-week stay at one of the Beau Monde Hollywood Hills houses on a private floor costs $96,000 a month.

Detox for your Skyn

by Anne Metz (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Celebrity Shopping, Cosmetics and Fragrance

It was on Lindsay Lohan's recommendation that I first heard about The 5-Day Detox Kit from skyn Iceland.

"Detox" has the ring of seriousness, doesn't it? Well, for some of us -- and yes, Lindsay and I fall into this category -- detox is exactly what we need when it comes to our skin. If you have chronic dryness, redness, irritation, flakiness, skyn's 4-step regimen is the only skincare line designed to address the tell-tale signs of stress on your skin. Inflused with a unique Biospheric Complex, the detox kit gives you everything you need to replenish the naturally occurring "glow" most of us have when we aren't under the influence of things like deadlines, caffeine, lack of sleep, hang-overs, sunburns, sugar, anxiety or -- in the case of La Lohan -- the paparazzi.
