So you gave up your beloved chocolate for Lent. How virtuous.

If only your friends thought so. Five days without a fix, and you’ve sprouted a full-on Mr. Hyde alter ego. (You actually growled today.)

Perhaps your prickly habit-kicking ways can be softened with a little treat. Drop the Mars bar, buddy, and head for Treats for the Face, a new day spa where you can transform your sweet cravings into a glowing complexion and relaxed body. For those mourning the passage of Thanksgiving, the pumpkin facial is a must. For caffeine junkies, the green tea mask will pump your skin full of beta carotene and antioxidants.

And for you? The chocolate oils (in mint, raspberry cherry, or chocolate cake) can be used in a massage, combined with salts in an exfoliant, or added into a mud wrap. You’ll emerge feeling sated and soothed, and your skin will thank you for weeks to come.

As will your friends.

Treats for the Face, 13569 Ventura Boulevard, between Fulton and Woodman Avenues, Sherman Oaks (818-783-1113 or treatsfortheface.com).
