4 of 11
Located midway down the Florida Keys on a tropical 60-acre island, Calm Waters specializes in island-inspired spa treatments.
The Treatment: Key Lime Mojito -- Signature Body Treatment, 80 min. $180
This body exfoliation begins in a tropical rain room where you feel the invigoration of the house brand of mojito sugar renew and revive your skin. As the gentle rain of the Vichy shower soothes the senses, experience their key lime infused shampoo and conditioning treatment for your hair. After, they submerge you in a warm moisture wrap that leaves your skin feeling soft and hydrated.
The DIY version: If you can't get to the Florida Keys, you can recreate the treatment at home by using a sugar scrub in the shower. (Try Bon Vital Mojito Sugar Scrub, $69.95.) Once your skin is wet, turn off the shower and, using your hands, apply the scrub to damp skin in a circular motion. Don't scrub too hard. Rinse off with cool water and, to really feel like you're on vacation, wash your hair with a key lime infused product like Key Lime Products Key Lime Shampoo, $9.99.

I would LOVE a trip to any one of these spas, but will have to settle on trying some of these DIY treatments this winter. Buffing away the Gray =)

I LOVE that the spa directors were willing to give us DIY instructions! I'm off for a cocoa soak and some aroma therapy....
