$8 for Two Tickets to Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center
Before lovers co-opted the custom, mortal enemies would exchange bouquets of roses and lilies before duels to symbolize the blood and lilies that were about to be spilt. Find a flower that enflames your own passions with today’s Groupon: for $8, you get two admission tickets to Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center (up to a $16 value). Cofounded by the former first lady in 1982, Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center strives to increase sustainable use and conservation of native wildflowers, plants, and landscapes through education and preservation. Because plants are too proud to ask for help from lawyers, doctors, and talent agents, the Wildflower Center takes it upon itself to protect and propagate the native plants and flowers of Hill Country and the greater south and west in Texas. Stroll one of the wildflower center’s four trails among summer blooms such as the indian mallow, the demure coastal sand verbena, and the ornery-yet-soft prickly prairie acacia. Visit one of the center’s nature-art exhibits , including Vibrant Blooms and Aqueous Matter , or stroll over to the café , gift shop , or castle-like observation tower . With new knowledge and appreciation of each blossom’s aesthetic and ecological role, visitors might even be inspired to return their own gardens to their native splendor and finally evict all those invasive piranha plants blocking their warp pipes.

Spa and Salon Services at Smooth Lines Salon and Spa. Three Options Available.
Humans like to greet one another face-to-face, a procedure that grows difficult when the face is hidden by an opaque, featureless mask that absorbs all light. Make a nonterrifying first impression with today’s Groupon to Smooth Lines Salon and Spa , a Bumble and bumble network salon in the Strand Shopping Center. Choose from the following options: For $32, you get a one-hour pedicure-and-paraffin treatment (a $65 total value). For $40, you get a Glo Mineral makeup application and a Bumble and bumble blowout (a $91 total value). For $79, you get a lactic peel, microdermabrasion treatment, and lip, eye, and hand treatment (a $170 total value). The talented staff of Smooth Lines Salon and Spa style visitors from scalp to heel with services arrayed in a chic salon environment. Take an hour for your face with the lactic peel and microdermabrasion treatment, which separate dead skin and frown residue from their frontal post to help reveal a brighter, clearer complexion. After the microdermabrasion sloughs away dead skin cells, the GloLactic 15% peel and other Glo Therapeutic products are customized to each visage and painted onto mugs to further rejuvenate skin. If necessary, cleansing extractions are performed by microscopic hard-hatted miners. The peel and microdermabrasion include an eye, hand, and lip treatment, during which peepers, paws, and pouts are pampered with gently exfoliating scrubs and luxurious potions. Glo Makeup consists of antioxidant properties, including vitamins A, C, and E, along with green-tea extract cultivated from freshly squeezed teapots. For 30–45 minutes, a stylist applies the triple-milled, ultrafine prettifying powders for a flawless look that typically lasts all day. The makeup also contains an SPF of up to 30 for a sophisticated alternative to the nose-perched parasol. The half-hour blowout begins with Bumble & bumble shampoo before more of the line’s signature products step onto the scalp stage and put on a hairy show. The Bumble & bumble University–trained stylists then teach each client how to style their own strands at home. Toes receiving the one-hour pedicure dip into relaxing lavender, energizing green tea, invigorating espresso, or stylish toe hats. After the soak, tootsies are cleansed and nails are trimmed and shaped. A scrub exfoliates, followed by toasty towels that swaddle hooves before the foot and leg massage and hydrating paraffin finale. Sip infused water, tea, or coffee while waiting for any of the myriad services to commence or surf the salon’s WiFi with a cappuccino mug or wine glass held between soon-to-be manicured digits.
