Moroccan Rose Oil Pedicure, $80

WHEN it comes to nails, most of us tend to stick to the basics - the tried and tested manicure and pedicure.

But every now and again, it is also nice to treat your hands and feet to a little something special and what better way to do so than with a gift of roses, or in this case, a rose oil beauty treat.

Which is why we like the Moroccan Rose Oil Pedicure at Wen Luxe Spa which is perfect for soothing those tired feet.

The treatment starts with a regenerative and hydrating foot soak in Damask Rose Water that releases an intoxicating fragrance before the rose-inspired 'facial for the feet' begins.

First, a hydrating rose cream is applied to soothe the chapped skin on your feet followed by a three-step exfoliation process using olive grain scrub, sea salt and alpha hydroxy acid. Finally, a paraffin wax is used to leave feet feeling refreshed and smooth. This is topped off with a pampering foot and calf massage before the nail colour is applied.

On top of the pedicure, Wen Luxe Spa also offers other rose-inspired treatments including a Hydrating Rose Wrap ($120) and the Rose Petal Luxury Manicure ($70) so there are quickie rose fixes for all purposes.
