Your Asian Skin Solution!

Advertorial

The largest and most visible organ on our body is our skin, which is why we need to take superb care of it!!

That's why I was happy when Asian Skin Solutions asked me if I would like to try out their O2 Peel Rejuvenation Facial Treatment!!

(Never too early to start to look good for my wedding teeheehee)



Ok this photo looks more artisitic:



Asian Skin Solutions is specially tailored to Asian females, and that's why before my facial treatment, all sorts of questions were asked so that they can better known my skin and give the best sort of treatment to me!

Questions such as the my lifestyle, environmental conditions etc. :D

After my analysis and consultation, I was led into their rooms... Located conveniently at Orchard Central (that's the mall next to 313), they have a spacious corrider at the back where all the treatment rooms are!





The comfy bed I fell asleep on later. -_-



And here I am before the treatment!!
I have no foundation on so you can see all my skin's flaws.



Ok lah here's a clearer view of my face!! I got shitloads of tiny zits on my forehead!



The first step is Double Cleansing!



It's shiok!!!

Anyway there are 8 steps in total.

Second step is the O2 Peel, then the X-lotion Steam!



Here's the bubbling water in the machine for the X-lotion Steam.

At this point I already felt that my skin was super refreshed and light!

Step 4 is Extraction, which is the most unpleasant part of any facials...

Using tools (like metal tools), the therapist will extract clogged white heads/black heads etc from your skin, and squeeze zits! Oh my poor forehead.

Luckily, this process wasn't that painful because the steam already softened my skin and loosened the pores.

It's necessary though coz in the long term clogged pores do bad things to your skin!



Next my therapist did step 5: O2 Spray!

It was very fun coz a jet of pure oxygen was sprayed on my skin!! Very cooling and nice after the extraction. The stream of oxygen was very intense and I imagined all my dead skin cells flying off. LOL!!

Step 6 was a Facial Massage and I could feel myself nodding off... It was so shiok.





And then for Step 7: Double Mask!!!

The therapist spread a super thick and cool paste on my face and zzzzz I have no idea what happened after that coz I fell asleep. Hahaha!



And done!! HAHAHA! My face!

Now for the last step which is my favourite: SHOULDER MASSAGE!!!

Enjoy maximum!!



And this is my AFTER!!

Skin is definitely more glowy and brightened. Totally feels silky smooth, baby-soft and QQ!! It is super hydrated and luminous. :D


After being a satisfied client, I still had presents!! Mad shiok!!

Asian Skin Solutions showed me some of their products, the DK1 line, which is only available with them and nowhere else.



I was given the Dual Revitalize Cleanser (tallest bottle at $98)...

What can I say? Awesome cleanser! Smells very, erm, I guess the only word to describe it is LUXURIOUS!!

After I use it I feel I should use an expensive body wash too. Hahaha!!

The texture is very viscous and smooth. Can be used as a make up remover too!



DK1 Skin Energizing Booster and H20 Lift

The booster is a great serum that will provide immediate lifting effect and help lock in moisture!

The H20 Lift is an excellent moisturizer with the ability to hold 50 times of water to its mass!! What the! Why so amazing one?



Vita Mineral Block 60! ($128)

Sunblock with SPF 60!! It simulates "collagen synthesis", which I have no idea is what but it sounds good.



The texture is very light - water based and not sticky!! If you are looking for the perfect sunblock, can give this a try!

A Berry Love Affair

Advertorial

Valentine's Day is coming up, and romance is in the air!! What's nicer than to take a long walk with your lover, sharing a chilled drink in the sunshine?

And that drink should be...



Magnolia Yoghurt Smoothie
Mixed Berries with Strawberry bits!!


A very long name for a lot of yums!



Magnolia's Yoghurt Smoothie series also has flavours in Strawberry (with Nata De coco), and Mango (with orange sacs), but the star today is the Mixed Berries!



And here is WHY!


COZ IT'S CONTEST TIME!!!


It's the "My Berry Special Moment" photo contest!!

Taking part is really simple.

All you have to do is to take a photo with your loved one(s) sharing a special moment - and send it in!!

Doesn't necessarily have to be with your lover either. It could be with friends or family too!!

Bonus berry points will be given to people who *ahem* pose with a Magnolia Yoghurt Smoothie Mixed Berries drink... So unless you are a complete idiot you should know what to do lah.


"How should I pose with you?"


Prizes are awfully attractive.

In fact, I think I stand a pretty good chance of winning and I am half undecided on whether I should write this advert. I mean the less of you participating the more chances I have of winning right? But sigh... See, I'm so nice!!

Winner and a partner gets to win a 3D2N stay at Fraser Resorts in Pattaya, with spa treatment for 2!!


Awesome!

And if you are not the winner, there are still 5 consolation prizes of Fujifilm Instax Mini 7s in PINK!!! That's a Polaroid camera by the way. IN PINK! Comes with a pack of film!! I WANT I WANT!!!


So I roped Mike in and snapped some pictures!!!


Here's 3, help me chose which one is the nicest!!!





LOL I guess the last one is the nicest.

Well enough of the posing (we weren't actually drinking in the photos hahaha), it's time for the taste test!!





Pouring the smoothie... For those of you who have not tried yoghurt drinks before because you don't like yoghurt that much (I don't), you have to try yoghurt drinks NOW!!

Coz the taste of it is very different from real yoghurt!! Much less sour, less thick, and so nice chilled. :D

I mean it is obviously still a YOGHURT drink so obviously it still does taste a bit like yoghurt lah.



Comes with real chunky strawberry bits inside. Oh love!!!


Why choose a yoghurt drink?

For one it has BioLive Cultures in it, whatever that means. Well it does give you a healthier digestive system!

For a drink that tasty, it is shockingly enough FAT-FREE! That's right, 0% fats!

And everyone knows yoghurt contains calcium for strong bones and teeth. :)



Now how nice is that?

Magnolia Yoghurt Smoothie Mixed Berries with Strawberry Bits is available at all supermarkets, 7 Eleven etc, so go get your own to try today, and remember to snap pictures to join the contest!!

You could be the lucky winner of a FREE HOLIDAY!!!

MY BERRY LOVE




GOOD LUCK!!!



Yummy whether shared or drank on your own. Slurps!

Fruity Fruity Lite!

Advertorial

Don't know about you guys, but I always have this problem at home. Whenever I eat meals at home, which is pretty often, I always feel like I want to have a drink to go with it.

Not plain water coz it's not as nice, but packet/can drinks always runs out so fast (not to mention damn heavy to lug home from stores), and they are real unhealthy!!

Since my meals are already usually healthy, I'm always on the lookout for a drink that is LIGHT, REFRESHING, and even better if it has health benefits too!

It really irks me sour drinks sold are mostly very strong tasting, like iced lemon tea (too sweet usually) or lime juice (too sour, not light enough).

AND I WAS SPONSORED FRUITY LITE!!! (link)

Since it's already a best seller in Watsons, I think some of you might have heard about it before.



Fruity Lite is a healthy, refreshing plum-like all natural digestive drink specially manufactured through advanced scientific methods from high grade hawthorn fruit.


Here's how it looks like


Never heard of it? Neither have I.

But this magical fruit can help digestion, reduce lipid levels in the body, reduce bad breath and improve blood circulation! It also exhibits potent antioxidant properties.




The box is resealable, and...



Comes in 12 light satchels for easy mixing!! Yums!!



Like this!

I really love this drink because it tastes awesome and is so easy to make!

Its flavour is kinda like plum but it is very mild and only very slightly sweet.

Really thirst-quenching too.

The best time to drink it is after an oily, heavy meal, because it really helps cleanse your palette and dispel the oily feeling! After drinking it I realised it makes me feel a lot less bloated.

Plus, it leaves your breath smelling nice!! :D Don't ask me how the hawthorn fruit does it, I don't know. Maybe it's just magical.


As for easy to make, here's how to do it:




Tear open satchel



And you'd find the dry mix inside. Ugly but it's good stuff!



Pour into glass



Add water! Warm, cold, room temperature. Up to you! (I'm using cold)



Done!



OMG it dissolves!



Stir till happy



Check it



Add some ice



And there you have it, yum yum yum!!



Drink it



Drink it some more



Finish it!

A great healthy alternative to soft drinks! Fruity Lite even helps relieve constipation!!!



CHINESE NEW YEAR IS COMING!!!



Treat your guests to Fruity Lite...

It's only $6.90 per box, and best of all...


When you buy a big box you
get a small box totally free!!



Awesome.

Get your Fruity Lite today at any Watsons and other supermarkets... It's so cheap, really a must-try!
