GREENSBORO, Ga.— From my late teenage years, I’ve been fanatical about my skin and have always kept it cleansed, toned and moisturized — as all good Southern ladies are supposed to do, given the harsh sun, heat and humidity that smother the South like a wet wool blanket.
So then when I had the high-powered vitamin C brightening facial at Ritz Carlton Reynolds Lake Oconee, near Greensboro in Georgia’s lake country, I just thought I had clean skin (heavy emphasis on the word “thought”).
When my superbly skilled skin therapist finished with the facial, I’m certain that my face and pores had never been as clean or my complexion as vibrant as they were at that moment.
