The women of the ancient Spanish Golden Age were so beauty-conscious they resorted to eating lumps of clay in order to maintain their flawless porcelain complexion. This treatment quickly fell out of favour when the women began to physically take on the properties of the compound, leaving them privy to squish-ups at the Play-Doh Fun Factory and persistent Celebrity Deathmatch challenges. Use today’s WagJag to ditch the home remedies and get molded in professional hands; $20 for a manicure, pedicure and Mini European facial at Annalee's Skinworks, regularly valued at $80.

The pore pampering estheticians at Annalee’s Skinworks work tired, sad skin into glowing, supple surfaces. The spa is known for its various types of facials and chemical peels, plus its broad background in other beauty treatments including waxing, laser hair removal and skin tightening. Your replenishing face-feet-and-hands package will give your appearance a boost to make you stand out against the wan wintery atmosphere. Show your mug’s membrane a bit of love with a Mini European Facial that will cleanse, tone and exfoliate your face amidst a soothing neck and shoulder massage. During your mani and pedi, each of your extremities will receive coddling to relieve them of all the daily walking and keyboard tapping they’re subjected to. Fingers and toes will be soaked and massaged, cuticles will be cared for, jagged edges will be sawed off and nails will be buffed, then spiffed up with the colour(s) of your choice.
