Spa Chez Toi

The checklist is almost complete
And we savvy moms are beat
No need to brood,
We’ve got the mood
To re-capture the seasonal beat.
A spa at home
Will give you some om,
To get back on your feet.

Forget fighting traffic, hiring a sitter or scheduling an appointment during office hours—Luxe Mobile Spa (sister company to Luxe Beauty Lounge in Yaletown) will bring the gift of relaxation to your home, on your time. (They operate 7 days a week from 9 am until 10 pm.)

From organic facials to full-body massages, scrubs and wraps, manis and pedis, they will have you feeling revitalized in no time. And as a bonus, if you need some help getting ready for a big night out, Luxe Mobile Spa also offers eyelash extensions, organic spray tanning, waxing, hair styling and make-up. 

A minimum purchase of $150 is required for each trip to your home, so book multiple treatments at once and enjoy some much-deserved time for you (or you and a friend or two). They travel anywhere in the Lower Mainland, but for locations outside a 30-minute radius, there is a small travel fee.

While you’re at it, buy a gift card for your beloved, who probably doesn’t dare set foot in a spa, but would enjoy a full-body massage and a medi-pedi (a special, polish-free medical pedicure is sure to give his well-worn feet some much needed TLC) in the comforts of home.

And to ensure your skin stays beautiful throughout the festivities, or for those who like to DIY, there is Principessa Beauty. Locally owned, Principessa Beauty makes paraben, petroleum, and phthalate-free natural beauty products to make your skin feel holiday ready.

Their DIY home spa products are reasonably priced, too. For a little foot love, pick up some Pretty Piede foot cream ($18 for 125ml or $9 for 30ml). For your girlfriends, nanny or mother, consider some Perfetto Pedicure Travel Kits ($25). Principessa products are available online or at Beauty Mark in Yaletown, Kiss & Make-up in West Vancouver and Beauty Bar in Kitsilano. 

Now that you’re rejuvenated
And your holiday spirit is elevated,
Spread the gift of pampered bliss
To others on your list.
