Christine Chin Spa
“No matter how much makeup you put on, if your skin is not doing good, it’s not good,” said Christine Chin, owner of Christine Chin Spa, which offers facials, microdermabrasion, body waxing and manicure/pedicures. Chin’s services are some of the most sought after in the fashion and beauty industry. Celebs like Kate Moss and Kimora Lee Simons have been known to stop by, in addition to New York City women in search of glowing looks and skin. But Chin’s real claim to fame is her flawless eyebrow wax. Priced at $35, it’s a bit steeper than other spas, but can you really put a price on looks? Chin began her career as a makeup artist over 20 years ago, and recently released her own product line. Masques, toners, moisturizers and more can be purchased at the salon or online.

East Village Dress Code
For the ultimate mix of old and new, and a little something all its own, head to the East Village. Vintage toys, magazines and clothes of all kinds can be found at Love Saves The Day. If you are missing your School House Rock lunchbox, smurf miniatures, or an awesome 80’s era leather jacket, you can probably find it here in Leslie Herson’s home for all things nostalgic.
Lin Sister Herb Shop
Chinatown is full of ancient secrets. The wonders of the East are evident as you walk down the streets and see the exotic foods, smell the mysterious scents, and browse the many unique shops.
MOMIX
For more than 20 years, the dancer-illusionists of MOMIX have been creating living art pieces under the guidance of Moses Pendleton. Five dramatically different shows use props, humor, music, and the human body to create surrealistic images of the everyday world around us, as well as the spiritual one which inspires us.
