A popular choice for bridal and birthday fêtes, this midtown hub offers beauty on the go: from a Secrets From the Chair makeup lesson ($90) to the Grrrls Night stagette party ($75 per person). Natalie Gee and her mother, Miriam, a long-time beauty editor (Flare, Chatelaine), concentrate on the face—skin, brows, lashes, eyelids, lips—with manicures thrown into the mix. The shop opened in 2005 in a Miami-white cabana of a room with black accents, designed by former Club Monaco image shapers Christine Ralphs and Michelle Lloyd. Men seem to like it: they compose a significant portion of the clientele, lured by a detoxifying skin-reviving facial called the Sean Connery ($90). The house also carries its own silken makeup line, lotions and high-quality brushes. For the time-pressed, facials can be custom de­­signed to be just 15 minutes long.
