Chocolate Pedicure
I created this myself and if it is like anyone else's then you have my apologies
because it is purely coincidental. I guess great minds think alike
Foot soak:
Add to your foot spa the normal amount of hot water that you would put in.
To this add an ounce of dried whole milk powder and an ounce of cocoa. Make
sure that you stir this well and always seal your powders in airtight containers
away from heat and light when not in use.
Foot Scrub:
Combine one ounce of sugar of your choice (I use cane sugar because its got
more of an exfoliating texture than regular old table sugar) with a teaspoon
of cinnamon and a few drops of Benzoin or Balsam of Peru. Add enough carrier
oil to make a gritty paste. I like to use grapeseed.
Masque:
To a couple of tablespoons of Dead Sea Mud (or whatever your chosen masque
base is) add a tablespoon of cocoa, a tablespoon of honey, some Frankincense
essential oil and either Benzoin or Balsam of Peru.
Massage Oil:
100% pure cocoa butter. I buy tubs of this from Aura Cacia. It is hard as a
rock at room temperature so you will want to scrape out about a tablespoon
or two to warm up prior to giving a pedicure so that you aren't rubbing this
hard lump of butter on someone. Its worth the extra trouble because this stuff
works wonders on chapped, dry heels. My clients love the fact that they smell
like chocolate when I'm done.

lovely answer!
If you don't want to make such a mess, you can start with getting some chocolate flavouring from a soapmaking shop and fragrance your products with that.

Do you charge more for this choco pedicure than for the usual pedicure?
