Spring's most en vogue shade makes its way onto everything from eyelids to
accessories to one of the season's hottest beauty treatments.

styna's European Spa (Beverly Hills; 248-540-0600; krystynaseuro
peanspa.com) has dreamt up the most glamorous body-beautiful treats in
town, proving the power of gold with their golden facials, golden manis and
pedis and the most coveted picks on the spa menu: the Golden Body Wrap.
A mix between health and beauty treatments, the hands-on gilded ser-
vices are rich in minerals (magnesium and calcium) to energize and laden
with flower oils (artemisia, passion and camellia) to boost well-being. Their
satin-like specs of pearlescent gold not only re-mineralize skin, they regen-
erate body and mind. Not to mention the dreamy fragrance melts away ten-
sion at first sniff. Sound pricey? No "gilt" trip needed — the spa offers take-
home products starting at $45; in-house services run upwards of $120.
Rather don a "gilty" pleasure to show all? Just follow this rule of thumb:
Choose just one golden piece at a time to add some chic and sophisticated
sparkle without going overboard.
