My friend cum beautician had told me about this new promotional package of hers that includes light therapy, body massage, and a simple facial for RM128 since last year end. But I didn’t have the time to try it out until today when my PC was infected with virus and was sent to the repair shop. See, blogging is a big part of my life. LOL! No lah… I called her up days ago as I was supposed to be in Bali right now, but the trip was postponed to August. However, I was dying to have a body massage. My last one was 2 years ago!
My friend’s salon
Oh ya, if you are wondering why I went for light therapy, here’s why….
Independent research demonstrates that certain cells in the skin can be encouraged to produce collagen, elastin and certain enzymes that are imperative to the skin’s supportive structure through a process that combines specific ingredients delivered through topically applied skincare products with light waves of precisely 633 nanometers.
This process results in the vascular walls of the skin’s small blood vessels being strengthened, and result in improved oxygenation and detoxification of the skin. Hydration is increased and the ability of the skin to retain moisture improves. Increased cellular activity, improved natural repair, and creation of healthy skin conditions more conducive to cell regeneration also follows.
Use of a special targeted delivery system enables results obvious to the naked eye that may include improved skin clarity, tone and texture, and minimization of fine lines and wrinkles while reversing the effects of sun damage and chronological aging.
This session started with a body massage with green tea essential oil she bought from Bali. Then, she lid up the aroma oil and switched off the lights, so it’s quite relaxing.
Aromatherapy and essential oil
This table lamp is nice!
After the body massage, she gave me a face massage, and almost put me to sleep! Then, she applied oxygen mask on my face, and slimming cream on my tummy, before I proceed to light therapy.
The sauna with light therapy
Here’s how it looks like …with Air Supply CD playing inside.
I was in the sauna for about 28 minutes, and the temperature raised from 28 deg to 40 deg throughout the duration. It’s really hot, and I was sweating like rain. It’s best to be in there naked, so that every part of your skin will get the light evenly. Don’t worry, there are curtains to close the view.
After that, I changed into a clean and dry robe and proceeded to my simple facial. I requested an eye treatment facial too as my dark circles were really bad. So, after the facial and eye treatment facial, voila! I was all ready to head for party! No lah…ready to go home gorgeously…
