This Week’s Top Story

First thing’s first: A new treatment at Ruby Room (1743–45 W. Division St., rubyroom.com) features cannabis, but it won’t get you high. Yes, the Wicker Park spa can now add a touch of CBD oil — which is derived from the plant — to any massage or facial. But the compound has no THC (the psychoactive cannabinoid that gets you stoned), and it has storied therapeutic benefits. It’s said to combat everything from chronic pain to inflammation and anxiety, which aren’t bad side effects for a spa service.

We recently popped by the spa to test out the CBD-infused massage, and were at first a bit leery of the orange, CBD-infused beverage that was offered in the cozy lounge area. A staffer assured us, though, that the only thing we’d feel from the drink is “relaxed” — and the same can be said of the massage.

Or, as Ruby Room owner Kate Leydon says: “[the services] will work away your stress, aches, pains, and leave you feeling like a well-cooked noodle.”

The spa is one of the first in Chicago to offer CBD oil and cream as an add-on to any service, and its shop is also newly stocked with CBD products. Look for capsules, gummies, tinctures, creams, and even honey filled with CBD. In addition to the benefits listed above, the products are said to help relieve sleep disorders.

Who likes zits? Yeah, exactly. Zit Stick is a brand new product from Glossier, which just opened a pop-up shop at 114 North Aberdeen Street (check out Chicago’s photos of the beautiful space here). Now available at the pop-up, the $14 product is billed as a “breakout eraser.” With pen packaging, a stainless-steel tip, and a clear finish, the product can go under or over makeup and be easily stashed in a pocket or bag.
