Consumers tend to make straightforward New Year resolutions: Spend less, save more and pay down debt. This year, it appears retailers want to change just one thing...their bottom line. The tried-and-true methods aren't working anymore as consumers learn to resist the urge to buy, so merchants are starting their own trends. According to Bloomberg, consumer spending stalled in December, with a rise of just 0.1 percent, as Americans took advantage of last...

Through the ages, women have never had a lack of complaints about the inequalities between men and women. Particularly when it comes to romance, dating and age, there's always been a lot to complain about. I wish I could say that I am not about to contribute to that litany of gripes, but oh no, I'm about to jump right in. So, this whole "Cougar" thing. I wouldn't mind if that term got lost in the Bronx Zoo and was never heard from again. Or was shot...

    Organic Nail Spa: W!NK

    Brooklyn's greenest beauty spa makes eco-chic and wallet-friendly worth the trip.

    23 July 2009

    It’s summer, and we can’t trot around with tattered toes and dirty digits, but traditional nail salons give us a headache and leave our pure bodies feeling toxic! In early May, I discovered WINK Beauty Bar, the only eco-friendly beauty bar in North Brooklyn, and have been a convert ever since. From their  sustainable storefront to their green products, W!NK offers “eco chic beauty treatments” such as nail care, body treatments, massages, eye brow maintenance, make up application, detox treatments and more. WINK

    I’m a convert. Walking into W!NK is a complete different experience than any New York City beauty bar. A beauty experience at W!NK is relaxing, calming and void of gross fumes, dust particles and scary tools of most NYC salons more concerned with cutting costs than the health of their customers. Products at W!NK do not contain parabens, formaldehyde, phalates or toluene. All are organic, vegan, and authentically natural. Ahhhh…. Polishes you can surely find at W!NK are Zoya, O.P.I. and Spa Ritual.

    Better yet? Their sanitary services meet New York State health code requirements. (i.e. Their tools are disinfected place in a medical-grade autoclave; far superior to UV light boxes some salons use and better for your health than bleach and harsh chemicals.) Still better? A mani/pedi combo runs $40 and if you opt for their ECO Mani/Pedi, W!NK will trip, buff and shape your nails sans polish for just $28.
    W!NK’s signature green facial includes deep cleansing, detox mask, exfoliation, an  herbal steam and a massage. Oo la la.

    W!NK’s waxing services use a vegetable based wax, and they offer an extensive menu of body and detox services for both men and women at a price less than or comparable to For a complete list of W!NK’s services click here.

    Anna Wintour just asked designers for money for Obama's 2012 campaign. Do you think she is right using her influence, considering her power and reputation in the industry?
