STAR
TREATMENT
SOAP
OPERA
WEEKLY
 They're
two women who seemingly have it all - fame, fortune, Emmys…but time to
kick back, relax, take it easy? Forget it! One Life to Live's Hillary
B. Smith (Nora) and Susan Haskell (Marty) share more in life than just
a dressing room: Each of these talented actresses devotes so much of her
time to her career and her loved ones that there's barely a minute left
to spend on herself. Something about this didn't seem quite right to SOU.
And since they are two of our favorite people, we decided to treat this
twosome to some much-deserved pampering. On a rare day off, we took Susan
and Hillary to the Miano/Viél Salon and Spa, a fantastic oasis of
beauty and nurturing set smack in the middle of New York City. No, this
was no mirage!
The actresses thought they
were dreaming - they couldn't get over all the personal attention, how
soothing the treatments were, how dynamite they looked and felt in the
end. Their only lament: Do we have to go home now? |

Fresh Face
|
 Susan
admits she does try to squeeze in a facial about once a month because "I
have to wear so much make-up every day." Here, Alla Katkov gives her a
1- hour facial, including a deep pore cleansing by steaming the face, massage
of face, 
neck and shoulders, and purifying and toning mask to achieve a fresh, glowing
complexion.The salon reports this special facial helps control excess oil
and rebalances the skin. Susan says she was so relaxed she almost fell
asleep! |

No-Nonsense
Nails
"My sister loves manicures
and pedicures, so sometimes she drags me along with her," Susan reveals.
Here, Frida Pankevich shapes the actress' nails into a pretty but practical
length. |
Tender Lovin' Care
For Hair 
Angel Torres gives Susan
a Kiva massage, a procedure which uses massage and stimulation of the pressure
points in the head, neck and scalp, combined with the Native American Anasazi
tribe's hair and scalp treatments to result in a healing, soothing experience
- not to mention healthy, gorgeous tresses! Torres gave Susan an "herbal
melody treatment," which "makes the hair much stronger and adds shine,"
he reports. Since Susan's hair was already in great shape, he finished
by just trimming the ends a bit.
