Enya's out--facials get funky
Have you ever been in the middle of receiving a facial, gliding along to the New Age music, and thought, "Man, I'd be a lot calmer if someone would put on 'SexyBack.'"
The Christopher Charles Anti-Aging Skincare Spa (980 N. Michigan Ave. 312-664-6404) thinks you should, now that it's offering the Sea Creations Choreographed Facial. For the low, low price of $240, you'll receive a 90-minute treatment using "anti-aging pearl proteins," as you unwind to music that aesthetician Renee Byrnes claims will "take you through an emotional journey inspired by triggering sensations in the body through choreographed movements." In other words, it seems, your face, neck, arms and feet will be massaged as they would be in any spa treatment, except this time Fergie, Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake are bumping in the background.

We haven't tried it, but "Metromix" on CLTV snagged a first-hand look at the facial. http://chicago.metromix.com/music/world_now_video/musical-facials/282987/content
