Please ease me. Find your bliss with these ultra relaxing
treatments: Orange Splash Pedicure, Sweet Lily Nail Spa &
Boutique. I know orange juice. I've drunk it. I've spilled
it. It's not something that called out to me as a relaxing
foot soak, but I was wrong. And I knew I was wrong about five
minutes after I dipped a toe into a tub of the stuff - the
main ingredient in Sweet Lily's Seasonal Pedicure ($55)- because
that's when the tingle started. That was the natural alpha
hydroxides doing their business. OJ is packed with 'em, and
the warm, aromatic bath of fresh squeezed juice, sliced fruit,
mint sprigs and essential oil of oranges not only energized
my senses it also helped slough off the rough patches on my
winter worn tootsies. My technician Wendy's gentle buff and
file ministrations only added to the ahhh factor, and when
she massaged my legs with an exfoliant of jojoba, orange and
peppermint oils mixed with sugar, and followed up with a citrus-
lotion rubdown, I would have plotzed - if I hadn't already
been so relaxed. |
