Green Cream Program at AquaTerre Spa at Parkside

Exclusively at AquaTerre Spa at Parkside

Do something that is good for you ... and the environment! Bring in your spent B.Kamins product bottles and you will receive $5 off the refill of that product.

We will also recycle the old product container for you! This is one new year's resolution that's easy to keep.

Feel good about contributing to our Green Cream Program.

Name That Treatment Contest

Suggest a new name for the treatment below to WIN it!

"Back Facial" – 1 hour, $85 – This treatment begins with a cleanse of the back, including a granular and enzymatic exfoliant.

The enzymatic exfoliant is massaged into the skin and extractions are made only if necessary. If none are required, it means more massage time for you! (Between 10 and 20 minutes).

A clay mask is then applied to the back and you are left to sleep with it on for approximately 10 minutes.

The treatment ends with an application of soothing moisturizer.

Please submit your entry by email to aquaterre@parksidevictoria.com with the word "Contest" in the subject line. Good luck!

Contest ends January 31, 2010.
