  1. The combination of this FREEZING winter in NYC and dry office air has left my skin so dry that it’s raw and cracking! A treatment like this would be a lifesaver!

  2. Because this winter in NYC has been completely brutal on my skin! This sounds amazing!! (Also, I’m having trouble with the link to sign up for the newsletter, by the way–there’s no space to input your email address).

  3. This sounds heavenly right about now! It has been so cold, windy and dry here in Wisconsin that I was just saying the other day I wish I could be dunked in oil every night, but an Exhale Spa Shea Butter Massage sounds even better!

  4. I’m a freezing, starving grad student who must travel all the way from Brooklyn to the Upper East Side for school every day, and incidentally my school is right next to your Upper East Spa. Also my school is the IFA which is basically a school full of librarian fashionistas, so I am forced to look my best at all times. Help me!

  5. I have a birthday coming up and my plan is to use a vacation day to relax and unwind with a full day at the spa. This would be the icing on the cake to help heal this working mom’s back while treating my skin.

  7. I never had a problem with chronic dry skin until I moved to the dry and bitterly cold Northeast. I have tried all different remedies without really finding a solution. When I read about this giveaway, my skin sighed because of the relief it would feel for a full 60-minutes. So this is me pleasing for relaxation and my skin for relief! -xoxo, Erin

  10. I need this massage because I suffer from migraines and my doctor said massage really helps reduce them. It was also my birthday this week and it would truly be the icing on the cake.

  11. The Boston storms and below freezing temps have taken a toll on my skin! Plus I work to and from work every day where I do therapy with cancer patients. I could use a massage therapy session to help rejuvenate my skin and a little self-care! I am grateful for my health, ability to work and weather the storms. The massage treatment would be an awesome gift!!

  12. This 2015 NYC winter is killing my skin. Living in a place where the cold hurts you, takes a toll. With a busy life, going to and from, a relaxing massage will help this stressed, cold, and busy girl just relax for once.

  13. Oh, wow! This massage sounds heavenly! Would be a great treat before springtime 🙂

  14. DUDE. Californian in New York during winter is not a joke. A soothing, moisturizing massage would result in tears of joy and a possible reversal of seasonal affective disorder.

  15. Because all work (hunched over a desk) and no play = a very uncomfortable girl in need of a massage

    Jenna | 02.24.2015 | Reply
  16. Dreaming of this treatment from my bed, lathered in every lotion in my cabinet! This NY winter is a killer.

    Sarah | 02.24.2015 | Reply
  17. I have the driest skin EVER and I’ve never gotten a massage before so I feel this is the universe telling me I need this in my life! Plus my birthday is next week and this would make the best present ever 🙂

  18. This would be the BEST thing to happen to me all winter… I’ve been having dreams about bathing in a tub full of lotion…

  19. I’ve always wanted to try out this spa, but have never actually gone. This would be a great 1st experience!

  20. 2015 Boston Snowpocolypse. Need I say more! My skin is dying for some extra special TLC and exhale spa is AWESOME!

  21. I am a native southern Californian and this is my first East Coast winter, ever! The adjustment (and the seasonal affective disorder) have been rough! I love shea butter dearly (my love even got me shea butter soap for our first Valentine’s–swoon).

  22. My cold New York bones and hunched shoulders would be so very grateful for such a beautiful treat.

  23. This Dallas, Texas weather has been harsh on my skin! Super bipolar climate takes a definite toll on the bod. But I’m not entering for me… my mama deserves a good de-stressor.

  25. I would love to have a Shea butter massage, especially in this brutal NYC winter, my skin is super dry!

  26. I never thought I would have to deal with freezing temperatures and snow in Atlanta but it has been happening the past four years I have lived here. I was stuck inside for two days because of two inches of snow. My skin has never been drier and this would be the perfect remedy!

  27. It’s been a really rough winter both physically and emotionally. I need this so I can mentally be whisked away to paradise!
