A face can both hide and reveal a person's age, just as a hand can both hide and reveal a child's nose after an uncle has mysteriously removed it. Reveal the beauty lurking just beneath your expressive switchboard with today's Groupon: for $89, you get a one-hour apple-blossom facial (a $95 value) and either a 30-minute Elemental Nature massage (a $63 value) or a 30-minute fusion stone massage (a $76 value) at The Spa at Digby Pines, located in Digby Pines Golf Resort and Spa (up to a $196.65 total value, including HST).

The aestheticians at The Spa at Digby Pines use Annapolis Valley apples and Aveda techniques to paint a relaxed glow onto patrons' faces. A one-hour apple-blossom facial harnesses the exfoliative alpha-hydroxy acids hiding in apples to whisk away dead skin cells, leaving skin as glowing, toned, and smooth as a health-conscious firefly. The fruitful facial, which is recommended for dry skin, lures toxins from their subepidermal lairs by boosting circulation. Once complexions have been soothed, spa-goers can treat stressed-out shoulders to a 30-minute massage. The Elemental Nature massage employs Aveda aromas and massage techniques tailored to suit personal olfactory inclinations and target an individual’s unique internal-tension bull's eyes. Alternatively, unknot looped latissimi with an invigorating stone fusion massage, during which warm and cool stones combat back cricks as an aromatic bouquet of sage, cedar, and sweetgrass tickles noses like a feather from a freshly washed angel wing. For an additional cost, massage time can be upgraded to a one-hour session ($32 plus tax for the Elemental Nature massage; $29 plus tax for the fusion stone massage) or a 90-minute session ($63 plus tax for the Elemental Nature massage; $57 plus tax for the fusion stone massage).

Today’s deal grants unwinders full access to the resort facilities on the day of their treatment, including the outdoor heated swimming pool and the fitness centre but excluding the golf course and the haunted bouncy castle. Groupon holders also receive 10% off any product purchases on the day of Groupon redemption.
