Last Wednesday, I went to a fun event organized by Les Zurbaines in collaboration with Vic Park (also called spa Victoria Park), a zen-like, upscale gym and spa located in Westmount, Quebec. I got the pleasures to chat with my fellow bloggers and journalists in the lifestyle and fashion market.
They set up sessions for us to try the spa and salon services. They went for a make-up and a manicure. I love both. As you can see from my picture, the make up was a success. And I learned a few makeup tricks to enhance the features of my face. It was the first time I dare to go for a dark grey nail polish. I know that it has been the crave for a while but I never seem to find the time to get a manicure.
They served two signature martinis, smoothies and wine. No girl event would be completed without a Cosmopolitan. I did not taste it but I heard that the green tea martini was delicious according to my friend Line Atallah. It contains green tea, ginger, vodka, gin, green olives.
Our goodies bag include products and a 10-day trial at the gym for two. The gym is beautiful. I like the vibes of the place. I will tell you more about the gym once I experienced it.
I had so much fun mingling and participating in the activities that I forgot to take my own pictures, except for a few of the gym. This is what happen when you take the habit of bringing your own photographer at events. I selected pictures from Line Attalah and from Carrie MacPherson of Zurbaines.com to give you a peak at the night.
