  we can't help you lose weight, spend less or get that promotion. but recharge your 2008 beauty resolutions with these january picks:

mr. clean.
beloved by A-listers from NY to LA, the newly launched perricone deep cleansing facial ($225) gently draws out facial impurities with a deliciously warm anti-oxidant wrap. it's followed by a soothing, calming mask tailored just for your skincare needs. we feel more relaxed just thinking about it. 791 madison avenue. at east 67th. 212.734.2537. www.nvperriconemd.com


go green.
comprised of natural bristles and cotton, the acca kappa bioceta toothbrush ($5.50) is biodegradable, meaning it will take a mere six months to decompose once tossed. compare that to 1,000 years for the average drugstore brand. do your part for the planet and don't forget to replace yours every three months. www.shopaccakappa.com


peppy love.
infused with a potent peptide and pitera cocktail, SK-II's signs eye cream ($95) targets the oh-so-fragile eye area with a light, yet intensive treatment that moisturizes, firms and brightens. we're feeling (and def looking) younger already. available at saks fifth avenue. 611 fifth avenue. at 49th. www.saksfifthavenue.com


new year, zen you.
you may have missed the new year's detox but don't let that keep you from a fresh start for 2008. sign up for the yogaworks restore your mind, body and spirit ($45) with a special workshop on january 26. it's chock full of guided meditation, breathing exercises, gentle stretches and restorative poses with lots of one-on-one attention from the studio's experienced yogis. 138 fifth avenue. at 19th. 212.647.9642. www.yogaworks.com


forever young.
kiehl's abyssine cream + spf 23 ($45) is fortified with corallina extract, a fresh antioxidant ingredient in skin care that thickens the outer layer of skin and reinforces the skin's natural moisture barrier. blustery winter winds, the sun's rays and father time have got nothing on you. 109 third avenue. between 13th & 14th. 212.677.3171. www.kiehls.com


minty fresh.
keep pesky scalp oils at bay with the new biolage scalpthérapie cooling mint shampoo ($14-$16). it leaves scalp and strands squeaky clean and refreshed, with nary a drop of oil to be found. available at the carlos lobo salon. 32 west 46th street. between 5th and 6th. 212.764.2426. www.matrix.com
