  • Posh Nail Spa: Chocolate Pedicure Spa & Gelish Pedicure Session

    10.02.2011

    Posh! Nail Spa, TTDI

    variety of nail polish brands O.P.I, Orly, Chanel, etc

    I had a pedicure and manicure session booked today at Posh! Nail Spa, TTDI. It's been some time since I last visited this area (ever since I moved to Mont Kiara). I do love TTDI area and with the opening of a chic and cozy nail spa, TTDI would not be the same again. Envy those living just right next to Posh! Nail Spa at Jalan Sulaiman area. Imagine you could just wake up, get a cup of coffee and enjoy your monthly mani/pedi few blocks away. Convenience is a luxury not everyone can afford.

    1st Trial Promo @ RM79, inclusive of soak-off service (NP RM109)

    Today I am trying the Gelish Manicure Session (inclusive of soak off service) from Posh! Nail Spa. It's also my first time trying the infamous gel nail polish trend that's hitting USA & UK. They say gel nail polish last longer, are better for the nail, odorless, quick to dry, easy to apply and won't smudge after and has a really awesome shine/glow. The only fiasco about it is the gossip about how hard it is to remove the polish, how it can ruin your nails and that it's pricier than normal polish manicure.

    Gossip Busted?

    1. Hard To Remove
    Only if you try to removed it by yourself (by peeling/etc improper way). Go back to the place you did it and have it professional removed. The latest gel nail polishes can be soak off within minutes.

    2. Ruined Your Nails
    Any kind of polish will weaken your nails (take for example a band aid covering your skin - lack of circulation, no sun). Just give a breather in between sessions so your nails can rest. Let the professionals remove your gel nail polish. Do not attempt to removed them yourselves as you might damage your nails.

    3. It's expensive
    When it was first introduce the price was *omg* however now the prices are becoming more affordable to the general public. With more demand and supply, the prices would be more competitive/stabilized.

    introductory combo rates

    My feet is also screaming for some love so I decided to go for the Essential Pedicure RM49 and add on RM30 for the callus treatment. The facebook combo promotion is much better as an introductory rate but I needed only pedicure. And what luck! today the "lou pan" told me it's their arrival of the chocolate pedicure spa and offer to let me try it.

    what the heck is callus?
    callus (or callosity) is an especially toughened area of skin which has become relatively thick and hard in response to repeated friction, pressure, or other irritation. Rubbing that is too frequent or forceful will cause blisters rather than allow calluses to form. Since repeated contact is required, calluses are most often found on feet because of frequent walking. Calluses are generally not harmful, but may sometimes lead to other problems, such as skin ulceration or infection - Wikipedia.

    Chocolate Pedicure Spa Coming Soon!

    Posh! Nail Spa will be launching their Signature Chocolate Spa Pedicure soon! Do inquire within if you are interested (price is not set yet). I think this will be a big hit for chocolate lovers! The pedicure session smelled like chocolate (makes me want to eat chocolate after this). The Chocolate lotion absorbs so fast on my legs, totally divine when couple with the light foot massage. Heavenly, will try this again for my next session. I wonder will they have vanilla spa soon too? (I love Vanilla).

    The session includes the following:

    -Trimming and Shaping of nails
    -Cuticle Cleaning
    -Callus Removal
    -Chocolate Scrub with aloe vera & candy fruit flavor
    -Chocolate Marina Mud Pedicure Mask
    -Warm Sensation Lotion with aloe vera and avocado oil
    -Light Foot Massage
    -Polish of your choice with OPI, ORLY, ZOYA or CHANEL
    -Complimentary chocolate drink (choice of hot/ cold)

    Which Nail Polish Color?

    of course I am going to go Chocolate all the way!

    Elise attended to me on my session. I must say that she has strong firm hands because I absolutely loved the way she massage my legs with the Chocolate Lotion (close my eyes and enjoyed it). She's fast and skillful as well in gel nail application however she might be too fast with cuticle cleaning so do let her know to slow down if you're a pedicure virgin (pain tolerance).

    super shiny and glossy! (top up RM20 for French Nails)

    I bought the monthly package promotion from Posh! Nail Spa. I figure I will be moving back to TTDI soon so this place is really convenient for me to chill out and have my monthly sessions of callus treatment. Absolutely loved the gel nail polish manicure (especially since it's odorless!) Highly recommend trying out their combo promotion for first trials and top up for the chocolate spa this month. Will do my soak off session after 2 weeks and update a review on how it goes? Stay Tune.
