Elements Spa- Banyan Tree

Hello All!! adre I didnt post for a long time its because Im really busy + I go to the same salons and do mostly things I've preveously posted about

 but today was a little different :D

Thanks to AO, who gave me spa voucher at Elmenrs spa- banyan tree for my birthday and I booked my appointment yesterday, for today!!




Banyan tree is on the 1st floor in Royale Hayatt hospital- Jabriya



I got there with no parking problems, mako za7ma at all .. ofcourse Im going to compare Baynan Tree with Spa time Avenues





I chose the massage I wanted to get done (lomi lomi)and was introduced to my therapist "PANDA" whos from Thailand


Elments spa is not only for massages theres also a gym and many other things that I saw on my way to my room



they also have a double massage bed room with bath tubs..



Then I got into my own room and I had my OWN/PRIVATE  bathroom/ closet which I loved because last time I went to Spa time I forgot my acessories in their locker and I had to go back to the avenues, blza7ma for them!!

 I put everything in their place and  took pics (aham shay! even though they're not that good haha)



I want my bathroom at home to look something like this!!yabeila make over!! hotel style! theres a shower and everything just like an ordinary bathroom where im standing to take pics from



anyway I wore my robe and Panda gave me a foot scrub as I chose what scent- 3ood bu5oor I wanted to smell while I get my massage done



Panda recommended Night queen she said its the most popular  but I went with Rose-

Rose- Uplifting and romantic scent, soothes the nerves

there was about 8 scents to choose from including lavendar, champaka, Bergamot, sandalwood.. 



The massage was very relaxing I wanted to sleep- she was reeeaaally good and the hour passed by so quickly.. then She did some streches on me i felt like I was about to fall off of the massage bed! :x


b3dain after the 1 hour massage she brought this bell o rang it 3 times I asked her why? tgol tradition when they're done they must do that! :P

she then brougt me a wet towel to remove access oil off of my skin from the massage oil she used

then I was served refreshments- Ginger tea and fruits 



o bas :D r7t abadil o kl my jewellry ib mokana o my own dressing room- reallly love this part!!



as I was getting dressed Panda told me theres one more thing AO left for me at the reception!!
 @@ as if the massage wasn't enough!!

she left me these gorgeous china glaze nail polish




now let me quickly compare what I liked about Banyan Tree and What I prefered at Spa Time

Banyan Tree:
  • no parking problems
  • own dressing room/bathroom- no need for lockers o ohma eyebon your things to you!! here, You have your own place!
  • Since its my own place, I CAN ALSO HAVE MY MOBILE WOHOO :D
  • loved the scent
  • I think I liked the massage here more but Im not sure cuz when I went to spa time I went with my friend and we didnt really relax.. we were joking around most of the time haha
  • your relaxed and you go immediatly to the basement to your car, not in the middle of a mall o iz3aj!



Spa Time:
  • I prefered the atmosphere
  • they put heat pads under your shoulders on the massage bed 
  • o after the massage they put the heat thingie around your neck while you drink your tea

price? .. hmm Spa time massages are half the price of banyan trees!!

Which one did I prefer out of the two? both are different.. but both are good!

once again thank you AO :** Wallah you made my day!! :*

* I just remembered! Banyan tree staff told me in rmthan they make an offer get 1 massage and another free! great for when you go with a friend of something (2 for the price of 1 :D)

My Bday Wish List :D

Today is june 1st!! can you beleive it??
This year is passing by sooo quickly!!
 And after 7 days ( June 8) ill be a year older!! Im turning 19!! or 20???? :P 





I finally decided what I want for my birthday and Im going to share my wish list ..
I got this posts idea from the dear blogger zabo0o6a and I have to agree with her on the part where she said;


"It's not important for the gift to be big to make me happy, a thoughtful sms on my B.day would mean alot to me or a piece of candy that you picked up at the local co-op just because you knew I like it , so C'mon who doesn't like gifts and surprises !"


SO here goes MY  list!! ;
 
awal shay a7b surprises like a call from a place telling me I got a gift and should go pick it up
 aw going out with my friends o they surprise me with a cake
or see flowers and balloons on my car..
you know all these sweet stuff..
 
other than that..
 
I love getting flowers! I actually like 1-3 roses more than a large bouquet
 
 
 
 
2- any of your favourite products (nothing specific but has to be your favourite!! TRIED AND TESTED) like ;
 

  • nail polishes;
 
 
 
 

  • Spa vouchers!! your favourite spa/salon ;
 
 


  •   Make up- I dont really like getting make up because I have soo much that most has never even been opened!!
But I like getting products that maybe Ive never discovered?
Im also keeping my eye out for Bassam Fattouhs cosmetic line!


  • hair creams/ tool/ acessories ;

 
 
 

  • acessories (anything other than swarovski!) something you find and like eg from F21, topshop, juicy etc..
 
 

  • body/face products;
 
 
 
 
OR even better, take all the things mentioned above and put them all together,
 wrap them up nicely and place them in a basket!! with a teddy and some cupcakes
 
 
 
 
Then to the specific part .....
 
I want a Chanel bubble gum pink quilted bag!



Or one of these LV dome shaped bags, this seasons colors were light pale pink, red and maroon..
 I think I'd like the maroon :P



or some diamonds? something from cartier? or a watch from cartier or chopard? :P




ok thats it, thanks! :P


and BTW I hate it when I feel some one got me a gift just because they had to!!
A nice SMS with happy birthday wishes is better than those gifts!!

Get everything mentioned for HIM

but A bigger teddy, a bigger bouquet :P

In addition, you might get a necklace shaped 3la heart aw key
(as in key to my heart) <---- for the guys to get it

Heres what I found in stores:



These necklaces are by Juicy, they're KD23 each.. They're pretty but the flowers look cheap so I suggest replacing those flowers with real roses ;P

B3dain I remembered tiffany have those key necklaces, bs 7safa they're all sold out


They did however have a veryyyy nice ring with ruby and diamonds 3laih 20% discount, it becomes KD1,500 ..7daa 3jeeb i forgot to take a pic. I loved it very very muchh ;x

I found a pic! *takes a deep breath* isn't it gorgeous?????!! You have to see it in person!


ok lets move on... alot of stores are celebrating valentines,one of them is burberrys



Bags, wallets, belts,notebooks (shda3wa notebook KD100+), shirts.. I thought they all looked C h e a p.

and if shes into computers or is in uni, you might want to get her a heart USB from swarovski



anyway end it your way, do something creative, draw her a picture, write her a love letter, think of something! we girls love these sweet stuff

Valentines gift .. For him

Starting off with guys because they are easy to impress :P

I think that all you should get is a teddy



some chocolate (if your good at cooking maybe you can make a cake?)




and flowers.




REMEMBER.. ITS JUST VALENTINES!


well maybe you can add a music CD

Heres one of my fav. love songs by Beyonce


something simple I guess... just make sure its creative and personal, theres 2 weeks left! you still have time to come up with something


Put some effort in it.. handmade stuff mean more than things you buy

So guys, do you agree? o what was ur fav. v-day gift??
