Desert dwellers prize the camel for having the endurance to conquer the sands and the eyelashes to conquer their hearts. Stock your beauty reserves with today’s Groupon: for $89, you get VaVa Voom! eyelash extensions at Spa at the Madison in Burnaby (a $199 value).

Spa at the Madison’s licensed practitioners deliver a full menu of aesthetic services including eyelash extensions. Applied in 90 to 120 minutes by a NovaLash-certified technician, VaVa Voom! extensions fluff ocular fringe to a vibrant, dramatic look so full of expression that many wearers give up speaking. Each tapered, synthetic lash adheres onto a natural lash thanks to a formaldehyde-free Platinum Bond glue, and placement just one millimetre from the eyelid allows extensions to move to like natural lashes. The nonirritating filaments typically last the life of the natural lash provided clients abstain from waterproof or flaming mascara. Spa at the Madison recommends touch-ups about every three weeks on average, refilling up to 20 lashes for $40 or up to 40 lashes for $60 (not included with today’s deal).

Live concerts are meticulously coordinated events, with dedicated staff ensuring each instrument is tuned, each mic is working, and each band member is set in the upright and locked position. Keep their hard work from going to waste with today’s GrouponLive deal: for $17, you get one general-admission package to see The Fugitives, C.R. Avery, and Wil at The Vogue Theatre on Wednesday, November 2, at 9 p.m. (up to a $34.50 value). Doors open at 8 p.m. Packages include:

• One general-admission ticket (a $27 value online, including all ticketing fees)
• One drink at the bar (up to a $7.50 value)

The Vogue Theatre presents listeners with an evening of poetic lyrics, high-octane guitar playing, and euphonic melodies from three talented acts. Hailing from Vancouver’s east side, The Fugitives combine intricate songwriting with folksy musical accompaniment to craft hypnotizing live performances that tickle ears and help uptight pocket watches unwind. C.R. Avery dazzles audiences with deftly flowing spoken-word poetry, percussive beatboxing, and ear-tickling harmonica riffs, and guitar-picking mastermind Wil shreds six-stringed music makers with moody, intense songs of love and loss. In addition to individual acts, a group performance will combine all three acts into an intoxicating musical melange that, like a pig with pterodactyl wings, is greater than the sum of its parts.

The Vogue Theatre houses tunes in an elegant yet modern art-deco interior, ensconcing guests in comfort and acclimating time-travelling flappers to the 21st century.

Without flight, professional baseball teams are forced to travel by river ferry and bat to opposing locker rooms with precision-aimed cannons. Revel in modern movement with today’s Groupon to Canadian Flight Centre at Boundary Bay Airport in Delta. Choose from the following options:

• For $175, you get an introductory aerobatic flight lesson (a $350 value).
• For $225, you get an introductory aerobatic flight lesson with video coverage (a $450 value).
• For $249, you get an advanced aerobatic flight lesson (a $499 value).
• For $325, you get an advanced aerobatic flight lesson with video coverage (a $649 value).

Canadian Flight Centre’s accredited Transport Canada instructors guide prospective pilots and seasoned aeronauts through two-hour training courses in aerobatic flight. In a 72-minute ground lesson, an experienced aviator will help recruits get acquainted with the movements and procedures in the plane, as well as the proper way to pet the dashboard for good behaviour. After a tour of the aircraft and maintenance facilities, recent gravity naysayers slide into the driver’s seat to chariot of a Citabria for introductory forays. Those opting for advanced lessons somersault into the purpose-built Super Decathlon, a plane used in air shows.

In 45-minute in-air sessions, new pilots learn to make the plane an extension of their bodies, with wings flapping like carefree arms over the lush local scenery. Intro students execute basic loops and rolls, and advanced fliers soar through an air-show-style program, which incorporates more complex flourishes and inverted flight. Video-covered sessions bestow new pilots with more than an hour of raw film footage of their session, recorded by multiple in-flight cameras to capture any mid-flight bubble-gum-blowing attempts. Both advanced sessions are intended for licensed pilots and serious flight enthusiasts.

Licensed pilots can log their video-covered flight as aerobatic training, which grants two free club sodas when mentioned at airport bars. Aerobatic flight lessons also make a great holiday gift for aspiring aviators.
