Going in hand with my post yesterday, I bring you my favorite thing for day #2, Spa Finder!!! Today’s random commenter will get a $50 gift card to Spa Finder.
In typical Corey style, my first ever massage appointment with my awesome friend Jill didn’t go as planned. I had never gone before and Jill planned a girl spa day for a group of us before we went to a concert that evening. I was ridiculously excited but due to a screw up on the spa’s end, I didn’t get a massage. I did end up being able to be squeezed in for a facial, which was amazing, but not what I had looked forward to for so long. Eventually though, ironically the day of my wedding, I did have a full body massage and I have to admit, it was pretty darn relaxing. Since then, I’ve been back a few times but my favorite treatment has always remained to be facials. I know it sounds weird, but I absolutely love when they massage your sinuses! I think that I have just not found the right body massage for me yet… but I’m willing to keep trying! There are a lot of great local places so I go whenever I remember to make appointments. I also admit that I’m quite obsessed with the cucumber water they serve. YUM! I seem to prefer the places that have the total spa package rather than a table tossed in a salon. Ahhh, I can feel my body melting just typing this all out.
Today’s commenter question… have you ever got a massage or spa treatment? If so, what kind is your favorite? Either way… if you win, what would be the service you’d choose to have done?
Congratulations Katie!!!!!

i got a facial once from a not that fancy salon and i thought it was meh… i much prefer mani & pedis!!
I highly recommend you give a facial at a fancy salon a whirl!
I’ve had a facial once, mani’s and pedi’s and a full body massage on our honeymoon in Jamaica (AMAZING) and then a massage once here at Mario’s (which was TERRIBLE!). I want to try the hot stone therapy, it just sounds wonderful. Mani’s are my favorite though!
So far I’ve not been a fan of Mario’s…
Nope, me either. I’ve had gift certificates to that place for years and the only I am willing to got done there is an eye brow wax. Very disappointing.
I fell in LOVE with getting a facial. The salon I was at was running behind and asked if I wanted one while I waited for my hair stylist. It was heaven and I agree with you! It’s awesome the way it makes your sinuses feel. Then, to top it off, my skin was glowing after I was done. I felt like a beam of sunshine and so relaxed that my girl could have shaved my head and I wouldn’t have cared because I felt great! Ha, ha!
SO glad I’m not the only one that loves facials!! Ahhhh sooooooo relaxing!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE massages! Full body is great, but I would rather have my back worked on for a full hour. I have only had 1 facial and 2 massages so I don’t know how to choose!
I know what you mean, whenever I get the full body I’m always like “screw the ankles, get back to my shoulders!”
My feet are really ticklish so pedicures are always hard – but I love the results!!
p.s Pick me!! : )
My one and only full spa package was on my 22nd birthday and I came home with a rash from the whirlpool water 🙁 Since then, I have been scared to go back to one, but I would assume a massage would be heavenly right about now.
Ack!!!!! How sad, you need one that relaxes you!
I’ve never had any sort of spa treatment. 🙁 Ever. I’d probably have a massage and a facial or mani/pedi.
Oh no! Hopefully you win and it gets rectified! 😉
I have gotten a spa treatment and it was for a facial. I loved every second of it!
Woot!!
