New Balance - 50% Discount for All

I was lepaking around Leisure Mall, Cheras just now. Pass by the New Balance shop (near to the cinema), noticed the crowd is extra-ordinary. But there's no sign-age of sales of whatever.

Due to the nature of curiosity, I went into the shop, and, asked the very very busy hard to locate sales assistant, "Ada promotion ke ?", then she said " ya, semua 50%!" .... woh, all 50% discount leh ..... no wonder ....

Well, she got no more time for my 2nd question of when it ends .... there I went to grab my 50% discount shoes .....

So, don't miss it if you are around that area .... all 50%, they are not only New Balance, but Nike, shirts, bags ....

Review - Facial with Melissa Chen

Product details:

Product	Size	Est. Price(RM)	Normal Size	Est. Normal Price(RM)
1 Facial Package for free

MelissaChen is giving away free trial facial for facebook fans, so I put my name, and then I got the confirmation. After providing the details via email. Not a week later, the beauty consultant called me. In the same weekend, I went over for my trial facial.

The Blemish Repair Serum - I like the smell

A very basic chat with the beauty consultant, after 'scanning' my face with a huge magnifying mirror, there I go in to the room prepare for a pampering session. They have lockers for the customer to safe keep their staff (which I like most as this is the first time I see a beauty saloon provide this service).

Some of the steps that I can still recall:

1. Cleansing
2. and Cleansing
3. Toning
4. Some product applied to prepare for extraction
5. Steaming and extraction
6. Mask
7. Moisture

Face feel clean and 'lighter', yeah I really feel that way …. and I was having some allergy reaction after misuse of some skin care product, where my whole face is full of small bumb (or white-head), the beautician carefully clean everyone of them … very patient and nice lady ...

Very basic and down to earth treatments, which actually I like it. No fancy stuff which just confusing me and not aware if that is effective or not but you already pay for it.

After that, we have a short session on after facial consultation, but I didn't sign-up for the packages that they offer as I still have some existing package with my existing facial saloon. Eventhough I didn't sign-up anything, but the beautician still give me samples to try on.

I like their service, they are very soft spoken, no hard selling, no pushy pushy threatening …

While for the sample that is for me to control my white-head to stop it from getting worse and become real breakout. However I have tried that for about 2 weeks, nothing much seems change, or maybe with the cream that's why it is now under control.

Review - Facial at De Beauty Gallery

Brand:

De Beauty Gallery @ Kepong

Date : July 2012

Link/Facebook: NIL

Product details:

Product	Size	Est. Price(RM)	Normal Size	Est. Normal Price(RM)
90% Off - RM38 for 2 PAX: 2 Hours of Pampering Facial Treatments + Cleansing + Peeling + Extraction + Neck & Shoulder Massage + Relaxing Face Massage + Hydrating Face & Neck Mask + FREE Miniature Set (Originally RM396)

This was my out of control online group deal buys …. I was once too into buying things from group buys and ended up with multiple facial treatment deals. Which I couldn't really can 'finish' them and until the beautician called me to remind me my expiry date after I keep-on postponing the appointment.

It was intended to bring along my mummy who never has the experience of going for a facial treatment together with me, both having a pampering moment. Waiting time took less than15 minutes from the appointment time. Surprising is they didn't really check my face (that's a bit surprise me though), and treatments starts ….

The room is not well sound proof, we can hear everyone's conversation, which I don't really like though. However, besides this, I think I don't have much things to complain about. What's been written in the deal is really delivered as promised. I can see the beautician never “discounted” her effort in carrying the service even though we bought the service at a discounted price.

So, within 2 hours, I got a good facial treatment. It is very basic treatment, but with good face massage (my very first time face massage), together with good shoulder massage. My mummy likes them very much :-). The service is very down-to-earth, no fancy long name products trying to dig a big hole on your pocket, but is plain service that I can tell.

They also offer very reasonable facial treatments packages with around RM60++ of basic treatments, you can have very good relaxing pampering moment. There are also body massage package available, which is also very tempting. Sales pushing is not much, very patient and very polite stuff, thumbs up.

Review - Talika Skin Retouch

Brand: Talika

Date : August 2012

Link/Facebook:http://www.facebook.com/TalikaMY?ref=ts

I got this sample from KLCC counter, the promoter taught me how to apply the product very briefly, but I managed to Google more information where it seems there need to have some technique on applying this cream.

Product details:

Product	Size	Est. Price(RM)	Normal Size	Est. Normal Price(RM)
Talika Skin Retouch			30	162

Additional Information :

It is cream type, and I read a few review on how to apply this cream. In the end, I found my own way and that plays good on my face. I like the after application feeling, it is very 'plastic' feel, but I feel smooth, dry, and oil shine free, for very long hours …. BTW, the secret of applying it is, no matter what you applied before it, make sure your face is 100% dried (or absorb), then only apply this cream, if not, it will be extremely messy, the cream will mix with the product applied earlier, and it won't dry up, worst case, you will see patches of white spot ...
