Beauty treatments. What do you like?

And why do you hate?
Hate them shoving. Mask on and walking out for hours

Hate cigarette hands.
Love the Elemis thing where they wash your feet before. Massage

I always go to Clarins for a double appointment of facial and massage. They do a foot cleanse at the start as well as a pressure point thing and then you inhale and breathe in the oils they are using - devine!

Their rooms are always dead silent so you can't hear anyone talking/phones ringing as that drives me nuts. Even more so they don't leave the room which is my big pet hate of treatments - you pay for an hour's treatment so they shouldn't leave the room - or you should have the choice of:

I can leave you for 20 minutes while that mask works or

Woud you like a head massage or foot massage

I despise sniffing during a treatment as well as fag hands/breath and overpowering perfume or mints to tone down fag smells does not work.

Rant over..

Have just had a facial this morning and it was the first one I have ever had where she didn't leave the room. Had hand and arm massage while mask on and then she just sat there. Couldn't relax as knew I would snore if I fell asleep!

I did fall asleep earlier in facial when she was doing the eye treatment. Woke myself up snoring. Blush

Also like manicures and pedicures.

I like a foot massage while the mask is on. I hate the sort of massage where they ineffectually rub at you

Yes when you aren't sure where they are is good. No shoes on for eg

Aveda facials. It's a full facial orgasm!

Not keen on pedicures. Those rotary stone things that burn off the dead skin are agony.

Not keen on massages either, especially when they start grabbing your thighs. Yuck. That's DH's territory - no one else's - makes me go all tense which rather ruins the point of the massage.
