A hint
of witch hazel
to reduce the swelling
from an allergic reaction
it soothes
*
Mud mask
for acneic skin
refines and reduces
breakouts now under control
clears up
*
Sugar
wax like honey
or azulene instead
old fashioned yet effectively
waxed off
*
Eyelash
tint, extension
opening up the eyes
brightens the features of the face
full view
*
color
on the lips and cheeks
brightens the circumference
reflects contours and silhouettes
enhance
*
mani
and pedicure
a romance meant to last
decades and still remain entwined
in love
*
wedding
bells are ringing
spa time for sprucing up
dolled up from head to toes to
enhance
*
theme song
theme partying
team up for spa specials
bring the whole family for fun
repeat
*
Calloused
feet and tired
from standing still so long
or walking west to east, no rest
relaxed
*
the pair
of you reflect
a mirrored imagery
indicating you’re more than just
two thumbs
*
French tips
trendy art form
perfected with polish
a steady and skillful hand makes
French tips
*
Excess
superfluous
growing out of control
coming at me from all angles
hair growth
*
Intent
to epilate
and to eradicate
this undesirable case of
hair growth
