‘Tis the season for holiday parties, but recently we’ve been stuck in seasonal affective mode (think SAD pale, dry skin, split ends and more).
Rather than depress our fellow party goers, we booked ourselves an appointment at Lush & Lavish Salon Spa for some necessary beauty S.O.S. The latest addition to the Ossington strip offers featured organic and professional-grade products—all guaranteed to get us party prepped in no time.
First up was a much-needed organic Yam and Pumpkin Enzyme Peel ($80) from European skin care line Eminence, which left us positively luminous (you could even say we glowed). A new ’do (cuts & styles from $30) had us tressed to impress, and makeup lessons ($75) with Face Atelier cosmetics (the Canadian line Madonna used on her Confessions Tour) let us brush up our brush skills and our look.
And we can’t forget the SpaRitual mani/pedis ($65), which feature vegan, DBP, formaldehyde and toluene-free nail lacquers in all our favourite colours. Especially not the deluxe pedicure lounge (complete with built-in massage chairs, a massive screen and collection of all our favourite chick flicks).
Paired up with some sweet finds from our Holiday Glam Guide, and our nightmare before Christmas is now all a dream.
