Went for facial yesterday. Haven’t done in months as I was too busy and kept cancelling my appointment. I think the beautician got panic and thought I’d stop seeing her, and so she called and asked me to go. She’d wait even if I’m late. In fact, I was quite late…
After not seeing me for some time, the first thing she commented was:

Beautician: Wah, you’ve been under the sun lately?
Shoppingmum: Ya loh, have to drive a long way to kindy and rush back at 3 something to pick up kids from school.

Beautician: Your face looks darker. Your completion got worse, have lots of freckles and uneven patches. I think your melanin is getting worse.
Shoppingmum: What to do, under the sun mah…

Beautician: Why don’t u buy my serum? It’s really effective.
Shoppingmum: I have already (which I use sparingly because it’s extremely expensive), not finish yet.

Beautician: I know u have, u from xxxxx brand mah. But mine is better, can see results faster.
Shoppingmum: Better than SK11?

Beautician: Hai yo, I got 2 customer last time used SK11, now change to mine already. U better try out.
Shoppingmum: Ok, how much ah? Got smaller size or not (thought small size cheaper)

Beautician: Got, 15ml for RM180, better get the whole set, only RM399.
Shoppingmum: …..(No money leh, shoppingdad didn’t give…)

Beautician: You just give birth right? Breastfeed right? Want to firm your breasts or not? I have this new machine and firming mask which is very effective from Spain, only RM500 and can use for 4 times.
Shoppingmum: So expensive ah?

Beautician: Where got! I only charge the mask, not service. Lots of my customers like it. There’s one who lose more than 10kg after 2 months leh…
Shoppingmum: No need lah…

Beautician: If not, you try your friend’s package, only RM500 for 10 session, but only on thigh, buttock or tummy. She’s doing it, you didn’t know meh?
Shoppingmum: I know…(but didn’t see much difference leh, and she also breastfeed like me to lose weight)

Beautician: Come next week, I’ll let you try…
Shoppingmum:….

After a facial session, I left feeling lousy with my face and body. I look so chan meh??? Or she’s only doing business?

This morning I woke up half dead because Justin was not sleeping well last night. But I looked at myself into the mirror and saw how bad my dark circles are, how dull my completion is, and how pale my lips. Then I turned and saw Justin’s playing with daddy on bed. My ugly look is nothing for the time being.
Psss…Have to ask shoppingdad to work harder. 20 years later I’ll buy expensive products and paste on my face to rescue it! LOL!
