Elle Eco Salon & Spa Rolling Through Southern California
by Jasmin Malik Chua, Jersey City, USA on 04.17.08
To commemorate Elle's third annual "green" issue, which hit stands on Tuesday, the magazine has dispatched a biodiesel-fueled bus, outfitted as an eco-salon and spa, to various shopping areas and attractions in Southern California.
From now till Sunday, May 4, you can enjoy complimentary styling, mini-makeovers, and beauty treatments, as well as samples of eco-friendly beauty products from sponsors such as Juice Beauty, Paul Mitchell, and Physicians Formula. Each guest will be able to climb onboard the bus for 10-to-20-minute treatments at one of the three styling stations.
Click below the fold to see if Elle's green bus will be hitting your part of town.
Thanks to tipster Remy!

I went this weekend at the Irvine spectrum. You get a mini facial and a make over by Physician's Forumla's new organic make up line. You also get a goodie bag with a coupon and a full (as opposed to sample) bronzer. The organic wear is a pretty good price. They actually don't sell any of the stuff on the bus so there's 0 pressure to buy.
