The Great Escape: Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa

Your teens are holding a car wash at the high school Saturday. The grandparents volunteered to take the younger children to a movie Sunday afternoon. Your tweens take a nap on Wednesday evening. It’s your time. Take it.

Each week, we’ll tell you about one great idea to give you a much deserved break, and make your life a little easier, maybe a whole lot easier.

If the winter weather has wrecked havoc on your skin, nails, face, etc. (pause for a quick check of those cuticles), then you're in luck. Today, we're featuring a region-wide special offered by Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa.

At the Red Door Spa, you can indulge in luxurious services like the Red Door Champagne & Rose Facial, $150, or something a little more low-key like the Red Door Signature Pedicure, $70.

And to sweeten the deal, if you invest in the Spa Series Savings Plan, you will save 10 percent on a series of six services, or you will receive one free service with the purchase of seven services, or two free services with the purchase of 10. In dollars and cents, you could get a year's worth of the spa's warm cream manicure for just $21 a pop!

The spa is also featuring special promotions through Valentine's Day.

There are several nearby locations, including:

In Gaithersburg, Kentlands Place, 62 Market St.

, Wildwood Shopping Center, 10213 Old Georgetown Rd.

Hope you enjoy! Be sure to let us know in the comments section if you personally love the Red Door Spas, or if there are other local spas that you prefer.
