Brazilian beauty Gisele Bündchen turns 30 today, and we hope husband Tom Brady is doling out all the pampering touches—including, say, booking her a relaxing treatment at her favorite nail spa, MiniLuxe. The mod wood and white Lucite-appointed beauty lounge has three storefronts in Boston, but the Back Bay location is conveniently close to the Brady townhouse, making it a popular hangout for the leggy supermodel, according to our sources. While the menu includes plenty of decadent “mini luxuries” in the form of a whipped orange and vanilla foot scrub and a pedicure mask infused with algae extract and spearmint oil, we hear that Gisele prefers the basic mani/pedi service. The 45-minute, to-the-point treatment involves the usual filing of nails and caring for cuticles, followed by an application of a simple but refreshing lemon-infused exfoliating scrub and cream that’s massaged into hands and feet to soften and smooth the skin. As for the polish on top? Sources say Mrs. Brady is partial to OPI Bubble Bath, a soft, creamy pink that she prefers to wear on both hands and toes. A bottle would make a thoughtful little gift (Tom, are you listening?). If not that, the spa also sells Havaianas (though given that the model touts her own line of Gisele for Ipanema flip-flops, those might not go down too well).
