Clarins The New Extra-Firming Smoother Treatment + Mini Haul

Yes! I hauled again!

Last week, I went for my monthly facials at Clarins Skin Spa, Pavilion. I decided to try The New Extra-Firming Smoother Treatment that comes with new youth-enhancing features. It is an intensive 60-minute facial to smoothen wrinkles, targets firmness, tones, strengthens skins, structure and redefines facial contours with a youth boosting massage.

Like all other Clarins treatments, The Extra-Firming Smoother Treatment uses 100% manual hand movements and associates the best of science and nature to deliver exceptional results. There was no machine or extraction involved in the entire facial. Indeed, this was one of the best facials I have ever tried. I felt totally relaxed and pampered as I enter into the facial room. The soft music was playing in the background, the scent in the room was light and aromatic.

I had a skin consultation before my treatments and the outcome was explained thoroughly. I spent a full 60 minutes of pampering for my skin and the beautician applies each product through gentle massage, and my neck, shoulders and hands aren't neglected either but tended to in this total experience of well-being.

My New Toy "Olympus PEN E-PL2"

With the recent release of Panasonic Lumix GF-2 and Olympus PEN EPL-2, I keep asking myself "Should I upgrade to micro 4/3 camera system?” The micro 4/3 system is really a nice compromise between image quality and equipment size / weight. I did have a pretty hard time choosing the right camera as all of them have their strength and weaknesses. Of course I have done my research, consult an expert / friends and visits retail stores. 

Finally I ended up with Olympus PEN EPL-2 and it's going to take with me while I am travelling to Phuket tomorrow. Well, I think it is a good solid upgrade from my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS15. Yay! Mission completion!

I left my house at 6.20pm and there is a very serious traffic jam getting into Mid Valley Shopping Centre. It took me almost 30 minutes to reach the car park area.

My main intention to Mid Valley was to buy ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader’ movie tickets for Friday night's show and I end up shopping at Jusco Mid Valley. :(

Kanebo & Elianto also having stock clearance at Jusco Mid Valley and the discounts are 30% ~ 80% depends on the product. But the Kanebo sale is not really attractive as compare to the previous sale at the Centre Court, The Curve last week.

Kanebo : Price ranging from RM5.00 – RM35.00

Elianto : Price ranging from RM1.50 – RM19.50

Time 2240 : I am in a heavy traffic jam once again...

My Haul : Estee Lauder Beautiful Skin Solutions ~ Anti-Wrinkle

Hello ladies! Last weekend, while I am shopping at Sunway Piramid for some baby accessories, I stumbled upon the Estee Lauder counter with the great gift set offered - Time Zone Wrinkle Reduction Set at only RM 180.

This was a totally an unexpected haul. I just can't resist because Estee Lauder claims that Time Zone is so powerful, and promises to take ten years off our face (yes they guarantee it will happen in just four weeks.) More importantly, it has good sunscreen coverage for day to day use.

The Time Zone Wrinkle Reduction Set comes with some wonderful miniature! It consists of 9-piece collection:-

• Special introductory-size Time Zone Line and Wrinkle Reducing Creme SPF 15 for normal/combination skin (30ml)
• Time Zone Anti-Wrinkle Eye Creme (5ml)
• Perfectionist [CP+] Wrinkle Lifting Serum (15ml )
• Soft Clean Moisture Rich Foaming Cleanser (50ml)
• Soft Clean Silky Hydrating Lotion (50ml)
• Two makeup travel bags
• Two travel bottles

At the same time, I managed to acquire some samples too... ^^

Ladies, do yourself a big favor and get yourself this jar of joy! I personally have not tried this product, but I am definitely intrigued with the science behind it and their research study findings, because I know I want my skin to appear and behave younger! Don’t you?

The Estee Lauder Time Zone Line and Wrinkle Reducing Creme SPF 15 is available for Normal/Combination Skin and Dry Skin and retails at RM 250 (50ml). For more information, kindly visit http://www.esteelauder.my/ or the nearest Estee Lauder counters.

Will do a review on these product soon!
