since friday is our halfday working

the peaceful of siLence

My lovely hubby bought me a slimming package with free 1 facial last week at Slimming Sactuary.(don't remember how its spell)
“You must call them to make appointment, they are very busy ,” he told me.
So today I started going to that place since we got a halfday on friday.
So the‘beautician’ explained my skin type and what she would do while scanning
my face with a eye-scope and displayed the images in the notebook screen.
Eeek! Lots of clogged pores, dirt (a lot of outdoors?), oil and blemishes.

The reception area appeared small but according to my beautician,
“There are 22 room here,” when I asked her.
The walls are in navy too so it’s quite dark but the rooms are in beidge or white - couldn’t really tell.

Each room has a bed, a sink with automated hot / cold water
(convenient for facial & massages), a mirror and hanger for your clothes.
Most of the customers would have a machine brought in for facial.
There is a loose garment to wear because there’s shoulder & neck massage.
Some of the products are applied there too.

The facial would take about 2hrs. For my pimples with oily skin, I was:

cleansed
2 masks
pimples, blackheads & whiteheads extraction
brief face & shoulder massage
It was very relaxing - I almost fell asleep. Except the extraction part.
2 cotton pads were put over my eyes to protect them from the light onto face.
And I suspect to absorb my tears. After the facial is finished,
I was brought to the same room as the screening again to check results.

Really, cleaner and fresher. There was less red marks from the pimples
retraction compared to Praise Beauty.

Then she introduced the facial package. RM2000 for 10 facial sessions and
50% discount on skincare products.
What?! It was too expensive for me. Seeing my reluctance,
she offered another package - RM1000 for 5 facial sessions and 3 products
in full size (cleanser, toner, moisturizer).

“Let me think first,” I told her.

“You must sign up today. The promotion is not valid on another day.”

Wah, shit. This is how SS capture you.

“You also get 3 free facial vouchers for your friends each month.”

My beautician also recommended Collagen drink to detoxify and have more energy -
there’s a promotion of Buy 2 Free 1 for April. 1 pack is RM180. I didn’t buy it.
She persuaded me to take it but I insisted not to.

The point is: (Akmal, sorry I pinjam your ayat kejap)

YOU CAN SAY NO and LEAVE.

By the time I reached home, the red spots were apparent!
I thought we shouldn’t get scars from facials! But after a day or two,
I noticed my skin was better and no more red spots.

Resolution:

Learn to say NO more often
Eat more Vit C & fruit
Drink more water
Shit more
Exercise and manage stress
