Send 'em some love with a perfect polish at Ten20. Plop down in one of its comfy club chairs and zone out in front of the giant-screen TV (see photo; no QVC - think Grey's Anatomy and Sex and the City reruns) while one of the salon's 'curists smooths your scaly Colorado heels (it's not just us, is it?) then meticulously paints your piggies. Pick from about 50 Zoya colors (we went with Got the Blues for Red), which unlike conventional polishes contain no toluene, formaldehyde, or phthalates. There's also filtered water (served in compostable cups) and all-you-can-eat, free M&Ms - plain or peanut, no less - to cram into your kisser.

Wanna Try: 

Ten20, 2005 Pearl St., Boulder. Map It (720-565-1020). Pedicure, $38; mani-pedi, $64.

Cocktail Fact

Elwood Edwards, the voice of AOL's "You've got mail" notification, also did the voice of a doctor on The Simpsons, saying "You've got leprosy."

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 Denver Biters buy five bottles of eco nail polish instead of the regular stuff, we'll keep enough toxins to fill 250 martini glasses outta the environment.
