Faces turn red with embarrassment, eyes turn green with envy, and fingernail lunulae turn mauve with bemused panic. Obscure true feelings with today's Groupon to Elite Nails & Wellness Center, located in University Heights. Choose from the following beautifying options:

• For $35, you get a shellac mani-pedi (a $70 value).
• For $25, you get a deep-cleansing facial (a $50 value).
• For $25, you get a $50 gift card good for nail services, facials, massage, waxing, and eyelash enhancements.

The team of studied nail techs, aestheticians, and massage therapists at Elite administers a full array of beautifying and relaxing services. Enhance integrated backscratchers and carpet fingers with a shellac mani-pedi ($70), which graces digital keratin with the perpetually blinding chip-free shine of CND shellac polish. The shellac finish goes on smoothly and dries with a lamp, wearing for 14 days without chipping. To utilize Elite's beauty services for countenance clearing, opt instead for its deep-cleansing facial session ($50). Accrued oils, airborne contaminants, and temporary tattoo residues vanish with a thorough sweep engineered to tickle pores into warmly winsome submission.

The $50 gift card option is applicable toward Elite's entire menu of nail refining, facial washing, massage, waxing, and eyelash enhancements. Adorn nails with artful patterns with Minx nails ($35 for full set over natural nails), or soothe aches and unwind tense minds with a table massage ($60). Customers can also accentuate the face with services such as eyebrow, upper-lip, and chin waxing ($10 each) and eyelash extensions ($100).
