You really take care if yourself. :salute:TheAnswer:
Recommend your face and eye mask?
I use numerous brands. Mostly MY Beauty Diary. More affordable since heavy usage, one piece alternate day. I like it's variety, many choices for different needs. I also like face shop foam mask, squeeze out and apply on face. Hada Lobo hydrating mask is good too. Eye mask I'm using Hisamitsu and MBD
Can't bring myself to pay for SKII masks :yikes:
Healthy budget you have too.
Can't bring myself to spend on masks.
Use barely for that long then gotta throw away. :moneyflies: -

The gadget? Ya, I considered for almost a year! Haha. But I guess it is still cheaper than monthly facials in the long run.
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: -

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.
We had some guys do up some stuff in our home and hubs Γ nd I were taking turns to carry our lil dragon_boi now abt 15mths old. The elder brother was sleeping inside the room. The two girls not back from school. We chatted abit with the workers. Share our conversation with you.
\"You marry quite early arh sis/bro..\"
\"Where got early?\"
\"Early la, you two abt same age as us already got one son this big.\" (Referring to our dragon_boi)
\"Same age? How old are you all?\"
\"Btwn 25 to 27yrs old.\"
\"Bro, thanks for your compliment... but we are definitely not the same age. Can you believe that baby, he said we are abt the same age as them!\" :lol:
\"You're not?\"
DING DONG!
\"Hi mom, hi dad! We're home!\"
\"You got 3?\"
Chubs came walking out of the room a lil dazed.
\"Nope. We have 4!\"
\"So if we are your age, we must've gotten married when we were just kids!\" :lol:
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 -
Buds: Being low maintenance is really good and I believe DHs will appreciate their wives not having to spend too much and yet look good naturally.
I am schizophrenic when it comes to self maintenance. Some days I am thrifty on myself and then I blow a sum on say, an expensive bag. I then feel guilty about it and then be thrifty for a while. Vicious cycle, this one. :censored: I think I was the lowest maintenance when I was still working because had no energy to shop even though my workplace was in town. -

I'm with you ladies on the order of the ideal spa treatment. :please: Now, now, canvas... you're really tempting me with that \"shade lighter bum\" confession there. That must've been some SCCCCRRRRUB! :please:Funz:
Whenever I go for a massage, I will start with a full body scrub, followed by acupressure massage on all the problem and finish with a aroma oil rub down. For the acupressure massage, I need someone who has the strength to really work on those knotted muscles. Don't give me one who ngiao ngiao here a bit and ngiao ngiao there a bit.
Wa, I love a good scrub! Many years ago, there was a Elements Spa near ROM and I had the best scrub. I know because after the scrub needed to take a shower before massage and I noticed my bum feeling smoother and looking a shade lighter! Wahahaha! :oops: :rotflmao:
Too bad I cannot find a comparable spa since then. Please recommend me one if you find it good. :boogie:
Funz, I too need a really notti, I meant knotty someone to un-knot my knots. Don't like someone princessy do this job and don't like un-systematic kneading.. you know like how you can darn feel when they miss a spot... or knot? :rant: -

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.
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: -

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!slmkhoo:
