  thursday might be the first day of spring, but things are already balmy in SoBe. pucker up, find the sign of the times and love it or leaf it with this list of beauty picks:

sign of the times.
your love life's out of whack and your nerves are jangled. blame it on mercury in retrograde. the ritz-carlton south beach astro balance massage ($200) is a solution for your virgo type-A tendencies, or your gemini-freakiness. it's all designed to strengthen your astrological sign's positive elements. 1 lincoln road. at collins. 786.276.1144. www.ritzcarlton.com


scentsation.
do you smell that fresh spring scent coming from across the big pond? it's the molton brown exclusive intoxicating davana blossom eau de parfum ($70), avail exclusively at neiman marcus. with whiffs of egyptian orange flower, jasmine sambac, indian davana blossom and south american resinoide tolu, keep the red coats coming. 390 san lorenzo avenue. at 42nd. 786.999.1000. www.neimanmarcus.com


love it or leaf it.
caesar, niçoise or cobb? have it all with the new equinox salad facial ($125). get tossing with anti-oxidant-rich veggies and fruits such as avocados, limes, cucumbers and carrots. and the dressing? a foot exfoliation and massage. available at equinox south beach. 520 collins avenue. at 5th. 305.673.1172. www.equinoxfitness.com


out to sea.

C level.
yeah, we know there's lots of organic prods out there, but here's one that actually uses ocean water as its staple source. c'watre haeru activating ageless serum ($25) harnesses the ocean's molecularly stimulated water, packing 78 nutrients. think of it like spray-on gatorade, without the calories. available at www.cwatre.com


short fuze.
