Relaxation @ Espace Nomad

Last week was a lovely week. All my midterms were done so I finally had time to go to Espace Nomad for a spa with a friend, just in time before our Tuango coupon expires! After several experiences, my friend and I decided that manicures, massages, facials, briefly all the spas that we purchase from Groupon and all these discount websites are bad! So even before getting there, we had 0 expectation and we even discussed about how much tips we would give if the experience would be too poor.

And then... SURPRISE! Our experience at Spa Espace Nomad totally exceeded our expectation. We enjoyed so much and are planning of going back! =)

Our spa includes a facial and a back or feet exfoliation (worth 128$). Very sadly, we had to take a bus to get there, and there was huge traffic! We ended up being (very) late so the aesthetician told me that I could have the feet exfoliation while enjoying the second mask. I was a little disappointed because my friend and I were really looking forward for a back exfoliation. Apparently, our back has the thickest skin so an exfoliation from time to time is highly recommended. And in the same time, it just feels so good to have someone "massage" our back a little d=
Back to my story, the lady understood that we really wanted a back exfoliation, so she suggested that we could cut a part of the facial so that we could enjoy the exfoliation we wanted =) I do simple facial mask at home sometimes, so cutting in our facial was fine to me. After all, the facial treatment at Espace Nomad includes 2 masks, so skipping the second one, we still benefit from a mask.

The treatment started with washing and exfoliating the face. The aesthetician pressed on my face with the most appropriate force. It followed with a vegetarian clay mask that enormously nourishes our skin. In the same time, she also gave me a arm, decollete and shoulder massage. It was heavenly amazing (except that the massage was too short, as always). I totally did not expect a massage, especially a good one. It was not even said in our Tuango deal. They did not cut in their service because we did not pay the regular price. Isn't it marvellous? Up to here, I knew I would come back!

The waited-for-so-long back exfoliation did not upset us. I was glad that I ended up enjoy it. It was just like a mini massage, in the same time, I felt cleaner d= After both treatments, my skin was amazingly soft. Even those areas where I used to have a lot of blackheads/whiteheads were very smooth. I really loved it and felt that the facial treatment truly improved my skin.

This was the room. It was a small room. I should say that the spa itself is not very big. They have 2 floors but it is not a very big spa. It is not tiny, just the right size =)

This is outside the room.
Espace Nomad has a tiny lounge where you are welcome to rest after your spa before you get ready to pay. You can have a cup of tea, water, etc. My friend and I tried a coconut chocolate tea. It was special.
This is the princess chair where I relaxed =)
My friend and I already decided that we would go back. Next time, we will not be late heheheh We loved it so much that right after our relaxing tea, we bought their facial scrub d= It is worth mentioning that their products are mainly natural and biologic. Very good for our skin =)

I highly highly recommend Espace Nomad. They have some promotions right now. Take a look at their website =)

  1. I have never bought anything from groupon or tuango but it seemed like a really good deal since you seemed to love it so much! Miss K, I went on your website and it seems like they have a deal going on now...it says get 3 gift certificates for the price of 2 : P Maybe I should try it (Although i'm sure cheap hoho) but it looks really fun!
