Spa It Up!

Promotions like this can sometimes seem to good to be true. Hidden fees, lame attempts to force you into buying every possible product that was used. But this one is the real deal and it’s going on through this week only so you have to act fast! Spa Week LA is a promotion sponsored in part by Allure magazine and is a great opportunity to try a huge assortment of treatments at multiple spas around the city priced at $50. LAist tried one out at a day spa in Santa Monica where we received a 55-minute facial, deep conditioning treatment and blow-out all for fifty bucks! The retail of our services was $200 which is a great deal (please as with all promotions, tip on the full amount). You can do facials, spa pedicures, hot-stone massages and body scrubs.
