Me Time!

Beauty routine is so minimal I dare not tell people, and I have never had a facial. I'm nearly 50 but most people say I look much younger, so I've not felt the need to change.

Smiling as I'm reading this and chuckled to myself at the end of your sharing.

The only facial ice ever had in my life was one few days before wedding day. It was free. That was the first and the last. Never had a manicure or pedicure in my life, to which none of my friends actually believed. I am so low maintenance that my friends say I spoil market.

I've never had a manicure or pedicure either - can't be bothered, and too impatient. My husband appreciates it, but the downside is that my teenage girls are clueless about these things. I sometimes bring them around shops to show them so they won't be so ignorant. When I rented my wedding gown, the rental shop asked me to get my beautician/hairdresser to come to select accessories etc, and they were horrified when I said I was going to DIY. I think they nearly refused to let me have the gown!

Sephora sells them but they are more expensive. I believe you can buy directly from their website http://www.clarisonic.com/shop/sonic_skin_cleansing_systems/sonic_skin_cleansing_system_mia/ if you have Vpost. There are people who organise sprees. I bought it from a blogger who bought a few. Cheaper but no warranty. If you buy from Sephora despite the high price, at least it comes with a warranty. Btw, Clarisonic Mia is good enough, Mia 2 has 2 speeds but I use one single speed only anyway. Hope that helps. :boogie:

Thanks. If I'm not mistaken, Sephora is in JEM and Plaza Singapura. With warranty is better I feel. Will check it out. Might be worth the investment.

How much more expensive locally?

Now I'm tempted

I also stopped signing for my old Tuina massage (I have a slight spinal problem that caused migraine and other pains) and I bought a massage chair instead. Although it is the cheaper range in the Osim brand but works reasonably well. It is very well used. :boogie:

Which osim model did you buy? Need sit there for how long?
Effective for your back problem as in immediate relieve?

Mia 1 is $170 with one year warranty. Mia 2 is $215 with 2 years warranty

\"So if we are your age, we must've gotten married when we were just kids!\"


Hubs treated them to drinks and told them they could have seconds or thirds. Totally made his day... :rotflmao: Or rather made our day. :please:

27 uh? Sheesh.. http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys.php

Wow you have youthful genes.


My relatives are always confused between my brother and I, they thought my brother is 大哥. But we are only 2 years apart la.
Say if one day someone confused between my youngest brother and I, I will definitely 摆一桌 to :celebrate:
We are 11 years apart!

Can't bring myself to spend on masks.

Use barely for that long then gotta throw away. :moneyflies:

Not wasteful la, after putting on face, the mask is still wet, can put on neck, chest, upper back. Everywhere also need nourishment

How much per session? Need sign how many sessions?

normally signed a package of like 20 sessions. can negotiate also to like 10 sessions or so. our 3rd package is 10 sessions iirc.
