Citrus for the Skin

Next time you feel like exfoliating, you may want to drop by the Montage Laguna Beach for the resort spa's new California Citrus Polish. The treatment uses a body scrub, which is made from organic citrus fruits, and Vichy shower heads to rinse the scrub away. The polish ends with a hydrating lotion.

According to the Spa Montage, the fruits used in their citrus polish -- mainly, lemons, limes and oranges -- nourish the skin with antioxidants and provide many other benefits to the skin.

The California Citrus Polish is $130 for a 30-minute treatment.

While on the topic of citrus, Spa Montage also offers up its recipe for an at-home lemon/lime foot soak to soothe sore or tired feet.
You'll need:
● Half a small lemon and half a small lime, each cut into thin slices. Use three to four slices from each fruit.
● Half a cup of Dead Sea salts. Epsom salts also work.
● Three drops of eucalyptus oil.
Fill a large bowl or bathtub with warm to hot water (but not too hot) and add the listed ingredients. Soak feet for 10-12 minutes.

The Spa Montage is located at Montage Laguna Beach, 30801 South Coast Highway, Laguna Beach; 866-271-6953; montagelagunabeach.com.
