I bought a groupon voucher for this insanely priced pampering package…… it included a one hour revitalizing facial, a hair treatment, a foot scrub, classic manicure and pedicure plus a 1-hour body scrub. Now, remember, all this is included, and cost AED179 – That’s just a skosh under fifty bucks. Really!
The facial was truly soothing, light massaging, a gentle cleanse, then some exfoliation followed by a really yummy cucumber mask. Heaven. The facial person was one of the most stunningly lovely women I’ve seen, she was from Kenya. Gorgeous skin.
Next up was the body scrub – not for the faint of heart or the ultra-modest. This was a pretty intense full body scrub. But it was done in a discreet and professional manner…. and I promise you that my skin felt as smooth as a baby’s after that scrub.
Then came the foot scrub and the mani-pedi – nothing unusual or really outrageous about it, the foot scrub felt great, though.
Didn’t have time to do the hair treatment, but the cut and color that I had done in addition to this package was wonderful. My only complaint was that it was freezing in there – maybe not for the staff, but if you’re the passive customer, it’s COLD! But the salon was clean, bright and well-cared-for. If you’re looking for a really nice pampering package at an affordable price, definitely look at this one!

that sounds fun. I could use one of those, not real sure about the full body scrub. but the other stuff sounds awesome.
You know, I wasn’t sure about the full body scrub either, but in this climate, having all that dead dry skin scrubbed off me was exquisite. I thought I might feel shy, shoot no – the room had dimmed lighting and a comfy bed thing to lie on, and they had a heater in there thank goodness. But my skin *still* feels amazingly smooth – I don’t know if you can even *find* a full body scrub in the US…. anyone reading ever hear of one?? Thanks for following along, Mad Dog – today, I get to go play with the penguins!!
