It's my favorite time of year again...pumpkin spice season. Even if you are not a fan of pumpkin spice, you can't deny the skin renewal benefits of pumpkin. I took a peek around and found four spas that are offering unique pumpkin treatments this fall. If you haven't already, consider adding a pumpkin skin or body treatment to your menu...spice optional.
The Great Pumpkin Facial
Spa at the Hotel Hershey
For all my Charlie Brown fans, check out The Great Pumpkin Facial (60 min, $180-205), where a puree of yams and pumpkins exfoliates skin, stimulates cell turnover and evens skin tone. Collagen production is increased and a fresh and more radiant complexion is revealed. www.chocolatespa.com
Fall Pumpkin Spice Renewal Day Spa
Ste. Anne's, A Haldimand Hills Spa
For fall spagoers that want to get some serious relaxation at the spa, Ste Anne's Fall Pumpkin Spice Renewal Day Spa is where it is at. The fall spa package includes the whole day at the spa, a signature robe, a Pumpkin Spice Foot Focus service (or $150 spa and wellness allowance), a three course lunch, afternoon tea, unlimited beverages at meals and use of the facilities such as the hydrotherapy pools, eucalyptus room, outdoor sauna and zen garden. Sounds like a dream come true! www.steannes.com
The Yam & Pumpkin Enzyme Peel Facial
Touch To Heal Spa
Why just go for pumpkin, when you can tap into the power of yam too! The Yam & Pumpkin Enzyme Peel Facial (60 min., $145) starts with a double cleanse and facial massage, followed by the Yam and Pumpkin Enzyme Peel for exfoliation. A Pumpkin Latte Hydration Mask is then applied while the esthetician performs a face, neck, head, hands and arm massage. The treatment is concluded with a custom serum and a sun-protective moisturizer. The treatment is said to renew skin and help counteract summer sun damage. https://touchtohealspa.com
Pumpkin Spice Body Treatment
The Pumpkin Spice Body Treatment (90 min., $270) at The W Spa is like a treat for your skin and senses. It begins with a whole body exfoliation to prepare the body for the wrap. The Hydrating Pumpkin Body Wrap follows to treat aging, loose or dry skin to hydrate, soften and elasticize. It rejuvenates tired, stressed skin and creates a healthy glow. https://www.thewspa.com
