A: "Southern California beach luxury in Brentwood. I was greeted and shown côte's collection of five-free nail polishes, each color labeled with a number. (The shop's polishes are free of five major toxins found in regular polishes.) After picking out my colors, I was treated to a glass of rosé (which felt only right as the salon has a hint of French style to it) before I was seated to start the pampering. I received collagen wraps for both hands and feet, and a completely relaxing hot-stone massage for my feet and calves. No. 97 (a brassy-gold polish) is great for any party; No. 78 is a unique electric blue which would go great with your gold or silver party dress. To say I'm a fan of côte is an understatement—the staff is amazing, and the services really feel like luxurious treats for your hands and feet!"
