Discover some of the avocado-based treatments offered at spas today.
The Avocado Stone Facial ($75, 45 minutes) at The Retreat at Serendipity Province (Valparaiso, IN), utilizes heated stones to allow the skin to absorb the benefits of avocado. First, an avocado mask is applied and massaged into the skin with warm stones. Then, cool facial stones are used to seal in the rich moisturizer of the avocado. The facial also includes a rejuvenating lip treatment.
The Avocado and Silk Wrap ($135, 50 minutes) at Lavender Beauty Spa at Spa Castle Texas (Carrollton), works to moisturize the skin. The wrap optimizes levels of fat and moisture in the skin and smoothes dry and flaky patches. It also conditions the skin to feel soft and supple, reduces lines and wrinkles, and protects the skin from premature aging.
The Spa at Esperanza at Esperanza, Auberge Resorts Collection (Cabo San Lucas, Mexico) offers an Amanu Avocado Butter Pedicure ($400, 90 minutes), a collaboration with Amanu, a high-end custom sandal brand, where guests receive custom-built sandals at the end of the treatment. Clients can choose their design and materials before getting measured and fitted for their one-of-a-kind pair of sandals. The pedicure starts with a rejuvenating soak and exfoliation, followed by an application of rich avocado butter to hydrate and nourish the feet. Guests then try on their sandals for a final fitting and leave with their footwear and a beautiful polish.
