They sound good but are rather pricey.

I had a foot massage as a gift and it was heaven..then they painted my toenails too. It was something I never thought of having but I am now hooked and will have another one at the drop of a hat.

Oh, red balloon sponsored this, I never expected to see them sponsor a BH article but if the shoe fits and they want to advertise the beauty treatments they have on offer.

I don't like the idea of a chocolate facial. I've tried a face mask with cacao and it was such a mess that I couldn't wait to get it off.

At those prices I may just treat myself to a DIY this year!

I DIY mani/pedi + my own facials, so I wouldn't go for a couple of these packages, but I think I could do with a massage. I almost went for one + a facial whilst away last month but decided to save my pennies instead. The chocolate facial sounds dangerous! I'd probably want to eat everything!

Wow - maybe something for the Christmas list. In the meantime, I’ll probably just stick with oatmeal, yogurt and honey!

A foot massage sounds blissful - it has been a very hot and sweaty day where I live :P

Ha ha the chocolate face mask conjures up visions of the therapist coming back to the room to find a clean face - due to the mask being eaten off. Tasty gross!

OoooOOO I'd love the Facial, Microdermabrasion and Massage but not going all the way to Mosman for it! Pity there are not other locations.
