Just in time for Valentine's Day, The Spas at Equinox fitness clubs are introducing its newest spa service; the Strawberry Facial. Besides being something that might be found in the darker corners of the internet, this ultra-conditioning facial translates the antioxidant power of strawberries into a rich, vitamin-packed mask blended with milk protein, aloe, and wheat protein to improve circulation and strengthen cellular metabolism. The naturally occurring alpha hydroxyl acids help aid cell turnover, giving you a renewed, more youthful complexion. While the treatment is ideal for hyper-pigmented and aging skin, it’s suitable for all skin types—and of course, paraben-free.

To promote the new Strawberry Facial, The Spa at Equinox is running a few promotions on the Strawberry Facial as well as The Chocolate Facial (also no stranger in naughty corners of the internet). You can get a 3-pack of the 50 minute Chocolate or Strawberry Facial regularly priced at $465.00 at the special price for Valentine's Day of $390.00. If you wanted deep tissue massage with that it'll be on sale for $675.
