Be Relax

After three days of hardcore meetings (and eatings) on a work trip I was exhausted by the time I got back to the airport, and in dire need of a pick-​me-​up. I walked straight past this place initially, as I’ve always sort of rolled my eyes at overpriced airport mini spas. But ten steps later I thought what the hell, and turned back to have a look.
If only I’d discovered it sooner — it’s actually towards the end of the shops and next to the gate security check. As it was, I’d spent too much time in duty free, spraying stuff on myself and lingering for free whisky. So with half an hour left to kill, the cute lady said she could do me a shellac manicure in 20 mins for 15 euros — more than you’d pay elsewhere, but my inner monologue swiftly justified it with how great the euro exchange rate is atm!
They made me feel like a million dollars in there (cue lots of compliments on what very elegant hands I have which I’ll take as genuine ;). I went for a nude colour in the gel and was really happy with how it turned out. I’ve never been the kind of girl who gets her nails done regularly (and have only had shellac once before in HK out of curiosity and because it was super cheap!) but I think I may have developed a new habit…
They also have plenty of massage chairs and other mani pedi services available if you have a bit longer than I did. I would have given them 5 stars just for how lovely they were, but I’ve already lost one of the gel nails in less than 2wks when she said it’d last 3 (though I probably do a lot more with my hands). It made me feel very jet-​set anyway and was the perfect bit of TLC I needed to give myself — and hey, you can’t put a price on that :)
