Stem Cell for Beauty

I think I don’t mind storing up my own stem cell if I can afford to do so one day. It is pretty costly, but if the cells can be used for future health therapies or cosmeceutical treatments, I might have to give it a try. Nonetheless, I will find out more about the successful rate of stem cells being used in cosmeceutical fields first before making up my mind. I’ve read C’elle Client Testimonial but it seems like the link to CNNmoney.com is not working on this topic, so I might want to search for more later on.

Frankly, all those expensive skincare products can make wonder to our skin, but if we yearn for faster and more significant results, I guess laser or cosmeceutical treatments might be a better option. Maybe I should go to YanHee hospital again and find out more about their treatments and try out those which are painless!

Got Free Skincare Products….Finally!

I’ve just come back from Robinson Future Park, Rangsit. I asked for an explanation with the brochure in hand, and the promoter was rather beh shiok that I found out about the free gifts. Of course, she explained about the free umbrellas but you tell me, who needs umbrellas when you can get skincare products? :P

So, she gave me 3 small pieces of Estee Lauder CyberWhite products, and they suit me well. I used to use them anyway, so I don’t mind taking them. Actually, she should have given me the 6 pieces gifts, but she was out of stock. But never mind, I didn’t return the umbrellas too, as they were left at home. LOL!

I told her that I will be staying in Bangkok for long term, so I wanted to join in the VIP club. I know that I can accumulate a lot of points later, so I better sign up for Estee Lauder membership. I can just walk to Central and get Estee Lauder there, but never mind, I give her a chance. LOL! She didn’t know how much I can buy in a year anyway mah, and she thought that I’m just a tourist.

In short, I got what I entitled to have, and that’s good enough. No play play leh…

Touching Up

When I was busy typing just now, I noticed that the office girl near my table was touching up her nose by looking at the computer screen. Everyone knows that you can easily see your own reflection, if it’s not turned on. But it amused me, will you touch up your look by looking at viewsonic monitor at workplace? LOL!

I prefer to do it in the lady’s room. I don’t know, I just don’t think it’s nice to do so in public. Pai seh la…

T*lan

I hate it when I didn’t get free gifts. Part of the reasons why I like to buy skincare products is getting other related products from the same brands and try them on. D*mn it. Can throw the PS2 at the promoter’s face if I find out that she cheated me.

Wait la, if I have sneak out of office later, I will go demand for an explanation. T*lan only.

Continue with Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv

I made up my mind to continue with products from Estee Lauder, after reading some recommendations and reviews. So, I bought these skincare products today…


Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv Revitalizing Comfort Creme


Estee Lauder Intensive Lifting Eye Creme

I wanted to get the Intensive Lifting face creme but the counter was out of stock. Besides that, I’m a bit t*lan that I don’t have free skincare samples but just 2 umbrellas. @#*@#%$@#& I saw the promotion details later on that there are free gift sets, but I really cannot read anything from there!!! Maybe I misinterpret the gift sets as free gifts? :P I better get a translator to tell me more about it…

Anyway, my admin jobs and mothering duties are quite stressful, so hopefully my skin will continue to benefit from Re-Nutriv.

Trendy Sunglasses

I stopped wearing eyeglasses for years because I don’t look good in them. It’s not easy for me to get a nice pair of sunglasses too as my nose is not tall enough and my face is rounded. Most of the trendy designs are not for me, so I can only try them on and amuse myself. LOL!

Those are the sunglasses I wish to have, but sadly, if I don’t look nice in it. Gee… *Sob sob*…

Makeup Tips from Roberto Cavalli’s Runway

I can’t possibly attend the fashion runway of Roberto Cavalli even if cheaper flight deals are available, but we can “steal” the makeup tips offered by makeup artist Pat McGrath. The look is great for someone like me, who prefers to look more natural with earthy tones and more appropriate for work.

I like the eye colors, but a little mistake will make it look messy and yucky. So, maybe it’s easier to create the look by using the cream eye color as Pat McGrath colored the eyes with

Laura Mercier Metallic Crème Eye Colour in Gold on the upper lid, Nars Cream Eyeshadow in Paper Tiger along the outer edge, and CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 1-Kit Eye Shadow in Tapestry Taupe along the lower lash line.

So, are you willing to give it a try?

Which Skincare to Buy?

My Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv Intensive Lifting Cream is almost finishing, and so does my La Mer The Eye Concentrate. So, I’m thinking if I should just continue with Re-Nutriv and which eye cream should I be trying next? I really like the Re-Nutriv Intensive Lifting Cream, even if it might be too rich to some women. The smell is so nice, you will always look forward to using it again.

As for La Mer The Eye Concentrate, I’m “immune” to its effect now, so I need to source for another eye cream. I guess I will have to make a trip to the shopping malls in Bangkok or try to find one frantically at Bangkok Airport while rushing for my flight later on huh?

Besides that, I need to get a good hand cream too. I’ve been washing the faucets, preparing meals, and doing the laundry here in Bangkok. My hands are not as healthy looking as before, thus I desperately need a good hand cream now!  My Multivitamin Hand and Nail Treatment by Dermalogica is finishing too, so I have to get a good hand cream fast! This hand cream from Dermalogica is too expensive, considering that I apply one many times a day. I think I can easily finish a tube in a week! So, any recommendation? Which hand cream is good?

Pretty Armpits for Summer

Most of us wear sleeveless tops or spaghetti straps in sunny hot weather, so maybe some women prefer to take extra care of their armpits. Take a look at this:

 Shizuka New York, the Japanese salon that brought bird-poop facials to midtown, has now introduced the “underarm overhaul,” just in time for summer. The treatment begins with a thorough steaming and cleansing to remove dirt and debris (apparently you can get clogged pores in your armpit), followed by hair removal with wax or the more high-tech intense pulsed light (which costs $100 extra). Finally, a plastic surgeon injects the sweat glands with Botox. The price of pristine pits? A mere $1,500.

Gosh, that price is too much to me. Let’s just stick to shaving, plucking, deodorant and not lifting up our arms. LOL!

Shopping!

Finally, I had time for shopping last night. We managed to spend some time at Future Park, Rangsit after a quick dinner. Hubby brought the kids to get some CD so I could do some shopping with SIL. I bought shoes and clothes, but not as much as I used to do back home. The shops close as early as 9pm, so it’s kind of hard to shop at night.

Nonetheless, I’m glad that I did some shopping finally, and it’s not food! LOL! I think I should make a shopping trip again soon. I saw some promotional products by Laneige which I might want to get. Mmm…let’s hope that I won’t be as busy as I am!
