no tricks this month, just treats. parade in the nude, get a sinful pucker and be a sex bomb. with these beauty picks, it's looking to be a wild october.

hair-brained idea.
we have humidity, we have wind and we have indoor heating. what we don't have is a strategy to protect against fly aways, static and breakage. good thing frederic fekkai does. thanks to the winter hair anti-static weightless mist, our tresses are insulated from environmental stress. we love smart hair care. available at sephora. 33 powell street. at market. 415.362.9360. www.sephora.com


bomb squad.
alert, alert. viktor & rolf are droppin' bombs and layin' claim to your sexy. flowerbomb body crème is here and it's making a statement. this sweet smelling treat is sure to get your vote and the vote of anyone within five feet of you. it's sugary sweet, but boasts fewer calories than a fun-size snickers. www.viktor-rolf.com


going coo-coo.
go coo coo this month at cocoon urban day spa, san fran's newest gem to grace the town. the SoMA just got a little more hip (as if we didn't see this coming). and you yoga gals need not trek north any longer. get a massage, a polish change and a new pair of skivvies with your downward dog. all in a day's work. who doesn't love one stop wellness? 330 first street. near folsom. 415.777.0100. www.cocoonurbandayspa.com


nude booty.
never heard of going nude? we suggest you try it. nude's hibiscus-infused pure coconut oil was just made for those afternoons when you're just jonesing for a little hydrating session. don't be afraid of showing off what you've got--super supple skin. available at barneys new york. 47 stockton st. at o' farrell. 415.268.3500. www.nudeskincare.com


being bobbi brown.
it's bobbi brown's prerogative. call it excessive if you like, but the handcrafted luxe brush collection (in honor of neiman's 100 years) is housed in a genuine leather box that's so charming you'll wish you could find boots just like it. once you use the brushes with their ebony handles and 24-carat gold accents, you'll have to finally ditch the drugstore ones. now if you could do something about your drugstore candy fix. available at neiman marcus. 150 stockton st. at geary. 415.362.4777. www.neimanmarcus.com


holy crusade.
what could be better than a lip session with a king? lipstick with a queen, of course. aussie lip guru poppy king is not talking matronly mauve or anything that involves glitter. write off sticky lips with her new sinners & saints collection. it's just the kind of saving grace your pucker needs, whether you're seeking sainthood or considering dancing with the devil. available at elizabeth charles. 2056 fillmore street. at california. 415.440.1200. www.lipstickqueen.com
