SKIN Dermatology & Laser Center’s Refirme Treatment

 

The Spa Wellness is one of my top three favorite spots to go to when I need a lush comfortable almost foolproof massage.  Last Saturday, I head to their Fort branch but instead of a relaxing massage, I visited their SKIN clinic.  With its award-winning pampering excellence and rejuvenation at its belt, The Spa Wellness has evolved its services with the opening of SKIN Dermatology & Laser Center.

 

Upon entering SKIN, you’ll feel instantly welcomed by its calming interiors and genuinely smiling receptionists.  I was 15 minutes early for my 12nn appointment, thank goodness for easy parking during weekends.  I was ushered to one of the rooms where I changed into the robe and relaxed my back on the reclining chair, sipping on The Spa’s signature ginger tea.

SKIN Dermatology & Laser Center offers several skin and body services that use state-of-the-art technology, under the care of certified dermatologists in a luxuriously relaxing spa setting.  While I wanted to try their Signature Skin Facial for deep cleansing, mild peel and facial massage to nourish my skin, I veered towards something more forward.  Refirme.  Suitable for my age if I’m trying to keep the concept of “30s as the new 20s.”

Banana / Banane Taipei, Swagger Your Tote! Plus a contest.

 

As you can see from this photo, I love shoes and bags among other things. 

By other things, I generally mean traveling and eating… okay, MOSTLY EATING (get off my case now will ya?  Hahaha).  That is the reason why my 2010 Christmas wish list reflects my affection for all things beautiful and cutesy in shoes and bags.  I am quite blessed to have scratched most (90%) of the items on my wish list last year.  And unexpectedly, just coupla weeks back, I’m scratching another item from the list.  Sometimes they say, when you wish hard enough, the universe conspires to grant your good heart’s desire.

 

Thanks Richard for this photo! 🙂

One of the bags I have been eye-loving for a while back is an ORIGINAL Banana Taipei bag.  Tote bags are so useful and what I particularly adore about Banana / Banane Taipei bags is that it has the most coveted bag strikingly printed on the canvass like you’re using an actual Birkin.  The aesthetic illusion of a Birkin in a lightweight, eco-friendly material is just the chicest tote to carry around.  My Canon 60D DLSR fits inside, which is perfect since I don’t need to carry a bulky camera bag around.
