I’ve told you about Nuxe on this blog before and you know it’s a range of products I really feel affection for. They really do good for my skin, they are my moisturizing source.

So you can imagine that when Nuxe offered me the chance to try out their new treatment « L’escapade Nirvanesque » (which could be translated to « an escape to Nirvana ») in one of their parisian spas, I immediately said yeeeees !

If you don’t know the Nuxe spa on rue Montorgueil yet, picture yourself in the center of Paris, the roaring heart of the city, close that door behind you and enter heaven. That’s what struck me most when I arrived into the spa, to go from the bustle of this neighbourhood to the ultimate peace and quiet.

You are welcomed in a first room to fill out a little card to go along with you and state your allergies information, which is always useful when you use essential oils.

Then you go down a few steps and they set you up in one of the little vaulted spaces, an absolute cocoon.

Good to know : for this treatment you’ll be massaged from head to toe with oils, including your hair, so you might want to plan some time and equipment to do your hair again when you’re done with the massage. Even if Nuxe provides shampoo and a hairdryer, I personally would have appreciated to have my hair straightener and some basic make-up kit with me.

After getting fully undressed, you get settled on a comfortable warm massage table and then just let yourself go with the flow.

I have to admit I then lost control and almost blacked-out… My baby did make my night very short and I was exhausted.

They woke me up just once to turn me over, I remember they removed my make-up and massaged my entire head, I just let go.

Entranced by the perfumes of the Nuxe products, not a square centimeter of my skin escaped from the masseuse’s delicate hands. Nirvana is real, I’ve been there !

The treatment lasts 1h30 which gives you plenty of time in a bubble out of time. It makes such a nice gift, either to give or to receive, and it costs 140€.

At the end of the treatment, you skin is soft and moisturized and your body is completely relaxed. You can choose whether to shower or not after the treatment : the skin is oily but not sticky ; however, unless you have a hat, you’ll have to wash your hair.

This « escapade » is well-named, I was able to really let myself go, it’s a global treatment, a fabulous experience I intent to have again before Christmas.
