Spa treatments are a vacation luxury that leaves you relaxed, rejuvenated and ready for days of adventure and exploration. An increasing number of Hilton hotel spa services are now giving massages, manicures, pedicures and other treatments a fun foodie twist by incorporating food-inspired products into the service.
While a food theme adds variety to a spa experience, food-based products may have health benefits as well, adding vitamins and nutrients into your skin, serving as a natural exfoliator and even helping skin retain moisture. And at the very least, telling your family you got a caviar pedicure sure serves as a fun conversation topic.
