I bought a deal on Deal by Day for the Chocolate Treat-Mint Pedicure with White Chocolate Paraffin at $29 instead of $75. So glad that I did!
Luxe Beauty Lounge is girly and cute. I love how intimate and cozy the lounge is.
My pedicure was done by Bridget, the manager. She was really pleasant and extremely talented. I was particularly impressed that the tools she used came out of a Statim bag, meaning that they were sterile.
Now for the really good stuff...CHOCOLATE! There is lots of it in this pedicure. It starts with chocolate scrub that is very thorough. It feels great and smells even better. From there my feet and lower legs were painted in a chocolate mud. Next Bridget filled two bags with white chocolate paraffin. She was very careful to make sure that the paraffin was cooled to a temperature that was comfortable. My feet were slipped in the bags, were they stayed for several minutes. At this point the smell of chocolate is super intense. Eat before you go or your belly will GRUMBLE.
When the chocolate was part was done, she cleaned up my cuticles and finished with a perfect polish application. I was thrilled. The chocolate smell certainly lingers, it filled my apartment and resulted in me having to fight off my little dogs :)
Definitely something you should try! -

I just got back from a lovely pedicure thanks to a lovely friend and a daily coupon gifted to me for Christmas.
This is a really cute little boutique shop in Yaletown that definitely makes the most of its small space. First impression is that it is extremely clean and classy, from the awesome chandelier above the pedi sinks to the ivory/pearl coloured curtains covering the concrete wall to the comfy black bench covered in pink throw pillows to relax against while getting your toes prettied.
There are only three sinks which is really nice cause you know that it will never be super crowded (especially since I guess there are never more than two people working at a time). The manager of the shop, who did both our pedi's, was extremely friendly and professional - really knew her stuff.
I highly recommend getting the warm jelly pedicure, it feels awesome and is made even better by looking like you're sticking your feet into purple slurpee. So weird! That soak combined with a hot stone foot massage is ridiculous, so relaxing. Plus, my toes are so super pretty now with their OPI colour (for $5 you can take a mini bottle of your colour home with you for touch-ups!). I'll definitely go back for a little low-key pampering.Listed in: Do Stuff!

I love deals. And i love chocolate. So when I saw a deal for a chocolate back mask and a hot stone massage for $50, I was all in! I guess my back also deserves some chocolate...
Lanna, the girl who treated me was really professional and did a great job!
The spa is very small, but they are a mobile spa, which is awesome if you want to make a spa party at your own place:)
I would definitely recommend the place! -

Back in June, my sister and I got treated to free manis by Luxe Beauty Lounge, which wasn't even open yet at the time.
Luxe, the new beauty lounge nestled in the Yaletown Shops on Homer & Davie, already built some buzz on Sweetspot and at other events even before its doors were officially open. Now that's a way to build your clientele!
I normally get massages at spas, but since I got a $10 off card (with $50 or more purchase) from B&TB, I opted for the Citrus Body Glow for $65, which I figured would be like a full-body massage but with even more goodness for my skin.
I was 15 minutes late for my appointment (bad!) but Catherine, one of the partners who treated me, said it worked out since the client before me had run late too. I stripped down in the treatment room a few minutes later and then the scrubbing began!
First off, the scrub smelled really good, and was made of moor mud, citrus essential oils and some other good stuff. All natural -- a definite bonus in my book. It felt grainy, but that's what good exfoliation does.
After about 25 minutes of scrubbing, Catherine went to work wiping off the residue, but she didn't use a wet towel, because otherwise, the good ingredients of the scrub wouldn't have been absorbed by my skin. You'd think that would feel weird, being "dried" off like that, but actually it felt REALLY moisturized. After that, I got all lotioned up with some Papaya body lotion and then smelled extra good and had my skin feeling extra soft! On the website it says the treatment is 45 minutes, but it really seemed more like an hour.
For an extra $60, you can upgrade to include a Chocolate Wrapture, which is already a $100 value itself. Luxe has some great deals like this, especially if you are a VIP.
Luxe is a super cute lounge and they have a ton of other services, from massages to waxing, facials, mani/pedis, lashes, brows, makeup, hair, and even spray tans. It's quite impressive given how small the space is, but that also means you get great one-on-one service.
**Bonus for the busy women: they are MOBILE! With so few mobile spas left in the city this is such a good service - and the mobile services are the same or just a bit more than what they cost in the lounge. Great deal for the women on the go. Mobile Spa Hours are daily 9am-10pm. So flexible!
Come and check this place out for yourself and get the LUXE-ury treatment all women need and deserve!
