SBA2011: 7 Heaven Chakra Body Massage

Posted on by
Add A Comment

My last treatment with Adonis is a body treatment which is the 7 Heaven Chakra Body Massage. This is a massage for relaxation and will aid you to have a good night’s sleep. Using only pure essential oils in the treatment, it put one at ease and enable us to benefit from the goodness of the oils.

Theses are all the oils used in the treatments and there are 7 types of essential oils used for the 7 different parts of our body starting from the womb area to the head.

These essential oils are meant to be used for the face massage. However due to my face condition, I have to skip the facial massage as it will only aggravate my acne.

The different oils for various area. Before starting the massage proper, I have to breathe in the scent of the oils first following the steps shown by my beautician. This step actually help to put me at ease and by inhaling the scent of the oils, it will aid the absorption of the oil better when it’s used during the massage.

I do not have anymore pictures for the treatment as it’s quite an intimate process due to the fact that it’s a full body massage. Hence, below will be my description of the process of the treatment. I must say the back massage is really nice as I often experience backaches and stuff so it’s just what I needed.

Then I turned around and my beautician massaged the front part of my legs first before moving on to the abdomen area. It’s quite weird being massage in the abdomen area but I got used to it quickly. After that, it’s a shoulder massage followed by a head massage.

This massage is actually more gentle then other massages as it’s meant mainly for relaxation and  also to allow the body to absorb the essential oils. Each of the essential oils used have benefits for our body and I must say that the oils smell really nice.

I nearly fell asleep during the treatment but I did not as I think I’m not used to a body massage as it’s my first time and do not know what to expect.. However, I’m sure that I will be able to fall asleep without worries if there’s a next time. :P

Indeed, I did have a good night sleep after the massage and I felt that it got rid of the fatigue that I have due to late sleeping hours.

I strongly recommend this massage to those who’s under stress, lack of sleep etc as it does really help you to have a good night sleep and also put you at ease, while relaxing those tight muscles.

SBA2011: Nano 139 Facial with Adonis

Posted on by
Add A Comment

I’m here to share with you all on my second facial experience with Adonis last Monday.

In fact, I was scheduled to have the Chakra Body Treatment but the consultant recommend to go through this detox facial after checking up on my skin condition. She said that since I just did the Sparkle Peel Facial awhile ago, my skin condition is most suitable to go through this detox facial which is named the Nano 139 facial to repair and replenish the moist in my skin.

Brighten up your skin with this cocktail of 139 different minerals and enzymes. This special concoction is designed to help repair, activate, and provide energy to skin cells, leaving your skin with a healthy, natural glow.

- Taken from Adonis Beauty‘s Website

 

Standard procedures of Adonis~ I was served tea while waiting to start my facial.

And of course a foot bath before heading in the facial room for my treatment.

At the start of the facial, the beautician cleanse my face and apply a Soft Peeling Gel which is different from that which was used during the Sparkle Peel treatment. The one used in the Sparkle Peel was water soluble whereas the one used in this treatment, we can feel the dead skin being rubbed out. After that, she applied Comedone on my face which will help in the removal of blackheads. I was put under the Cool Mist while letting the Comedone work on my skin.

After that, my beautician push in this machine. First, she used the “Scrabber” which is a blade to “scrap” through my skin to remove the impurities in my clogged pores. After this step, she showed me the water used and it’s cloudy and has the impurities that was removed from my skin.

Next, she asked me to hold on to this metal ion rod which has two ends. The other end she use it to roll and massage my face. Of course, she applied a serum before using the metal ion rod to massage the serum into my face. This is to allow the serum to be fully absorbed into the skin cells through the usage of ion energy.

The serum smells like vinegar to me and this is because the serum consists of organic enzymes. I find it ok as it’s better for them to use something natural that don’t really smell good rather then something that smell good as they added extra things that are not needed in the concoction.

After the serum was worked into my skin, the beautician applied a clay mask on my face and left me to rest for 20 minutes while the mask hardens. She then removes the mask and applied toner and moisturizer on my face.

Here’s a pic of me right after the facial. My skin feels more supple and I definitely felt more refreshed.

I was told that similar to the Sparkle Peel, I would experience slight purging of blackheads and acne as the way this facial works is to purge the impurities from within the skin.

This facial is recommended for people with blemished skin as it works from deep within the skin to clear out the impurities. Even people with normal complexion can do this facial to detox the skin.

SBA2011: Sparkle Peel Facial With Adonis

Posted on by
Add A Comment

I went for my first treatment with Adonis last Thursday and I was really excited as it’s my very first facial! The facial that I experience was the Sparkle Peel also known as the Flora Peel previously. I would say that I am very happy with the whole experience and really enjoyed the whole process!

Let me bring you through my first facial experience! XD

So I decided to take a photo of my bare face before I head to the facial. >< Look at all the redness, bumps etc. Haiz…… The skin is a bit tired due to late nights too. >< Oh well…

I was asked to soak my feet in warm water with essential oils added in while they prepare the room for the facial. It’s really nice and relaxing. XD

I was lead into the facial room, where the lights are dim, aromas of the essential oils and light relaxing music. The whole atmosphere just put one at ease.

At the start of the facial, the beautician cleanse my face first before proceeding to apply a peel which actually exfoliates and remove dead skin from the face. Next, she pull in a machine to “steam” my face. It’s not really steam as it’s actually cold. It’s meant to close up our pores. XD

After the “steaming”, I was given a trim for my eyebrows followed by a facial massage that focus on the acupoints of the face. The beautician then push in the Symphony machine as seen in the above photo. It’s actually like a massage using electro-waves from a electronic massager but on the face. I have a massage machine at home which includes those gel pads to be used on different points on our body. This is similar except that it’s for the face. There is a choice of Symphony Beats for different effects. The beautician will adjust it accordingly to your needs. In a course, the beats are not constant or rather the “pattern” of the beats will change after 1 or 2 minutes. This is actually good as it targets all the acupoints on the face.

I was given a Hot Eye Mask while doing the Symphony beats  too. The mask will heat up as time passes but the feeling is super refreshing in a way. It kind of awaken my tired eyes. :P

I was given a shoulder massage and it was good. My shoulders were very tight so I asked the beautician to go on strong and it’s really good. My shoulders feels so much more relaxed after the massage.

After that, the beautician applied the flora essence peel to my face in two layers. She applied the first layer and fan it dry before applying the 2nd layer. When she was applying the peel, I can smell the distinctive herbal smell but it’s expected since the peel consists of 100% flora essence. It stings a little when the peel is being applied but the feeling subsided when it’s fan dried.

Here’s a photo taken right after the facial. I actually have the peel on my face as I have to leave it on for 8 hours for it to take on its full effect.

This Sparkle Peel facial involves no extraction at all. Instead, the peel will cause some breakouts which is normal as it’s purging the acne and all out from beneath the skin. My face started to peel mildly, 2 days after the facial. Now it’s around 6 days since the facial and there’s still some slight peeling but the skin feels relatively smooth. XD

Here’s the instruction given to me from the beautician. I was also given a balancing cream to apply. Was also advice to apply sunblock both day and night as the skin is quite vulnerable while it’s peeling.

I received a follow up call from Adonis on Monday where they asked about the condition of the skin and also reminding me to put on sunblock and to mask and moisturize more to smoothen the process of the peeling.

Here’s another photo of my bare skin. My skin appears “whiter” cause of the lighting. But you can definitely see that my skin ain’t that dull and tired anymore. Also the redness is not that clustered up anymore. I just need to wait for the bumps that are purged out to clear away. XD

Can’t wait for my next treatment with Adonis! XD

Singapore Blog Awards 2011 – Adonis Best Beauty Blog Finalist

Posted on by
Add A Comment

Hi everyone!

Here’s some good news to share with all of you! I’m one of the finalists in Singapore Blog Awards 2011 in the ADONIS Best Beauty Blog category along with 9 other beautiful ladies!

I was super excited when SBA2011 have included a beauty blog category this time round and super happy to know that I actually am one of the finalists! To me it’s a very big deal as being able to make it into the top 10 is a big recognition for my blog! My beauty blog to me is like my child, I put in loads of effort and time in it and is very proud of it. Hence, I’m really happy that the team behind SBA deem my blog worthy to be one of the top 10.

Ok, so we had a briefing over at ADONIS at Vivocity recently on what we are to expect during the period of the competition.

The briefing was held at the ADONIS @Vivocity outlet.

Do you know that the name ADONIS was originated from a male Greek God which represents beauty and youth?

 

The kind people of ADONIS provided us with refreshments, different types of tea that are good for our health plus some pastries! XD

 

How can a post goes without my face! LOL!

 

So we went through the briefing and did an interview with the OMY.SG crew, after that we also did some analyses to check on our skin condition and also our inner health. Over at ADONIS, they not only care for your beauty on the outer, but also your inner health. Beauty come from within, and ADONIS aims to help all women with that.

I actually did brought my camera along but was too engrossed with all the tests and such that I forgot to take photos! So there won’t be visuals to accompany my thoughts on the tests.

Skin Analysis

I did my skin analysis first and as expected, inflammation, redness and very clustered up nose with loads of blackheads! But luckily, no other problems showed up other then those that I know I have. :P

Irislogy Test

This is an interesting test. The consultant will take a photo of your iris with a device and it will be magnified to about 30X bigger so that they can look at the patterns of the iris and from there, they will be able to know about your inner health.

Just when the consultant was taking a photo of my iris, she comment that I must have sleeping problems. Apparently the pupil of our eyes should only be like 1/3 the size of the outer ring but mine was like half the size. The consultant also mentioned that I have bowel problems and some slight liver problems too. She also said that my body is currently full of toxic that other problems could not be spotted. Hence she recommended me to start with detoxification first as it’s the biggest problem I have.

Live Blood Analysis

For this live blood analysis, the consultant will prick your pinky with a device to obtain a small drop of blood which she will observe under the microscope with the image being projected on a LCD screen.

For my case, I have too much protein in my system and apparently too much protein will become acidic and it’s not good for the joints. I’m also lacking in calcium which might lead to osteoporosis if I do not start to have a regular intake of diary products for calcium. The consultant also observe that my white blood cells are smaller then my red blood cells and it means that my immunity is lower then normal. This is because a healthy white blood cell should be bigger then the red blood cells. Also my red blood cells are clustered together and its not good too as the blood cells should be singular. Surprisingly, the fatty acids in my blood is only a little bit! I expect it to be clustered as I have quite an unhealthy diet. ><

To sum up, I have a lot of toxic in my body and I am sadly very unhealthy. >< Both consultant advice that I should first detox my body so that my body is able to absorb other nutrients.

 

This is the Aloe Pine Pollen that ADONIS carries which is meant for detox. According to the box, I should take 2 capsules every time before I sleep. However, the consultant who did the blood analysis for me recommend that I start with 3 instead as 2 might not be enough. I guess my body is really filled with toxic. ><

 

Other then the Aloe Pine Pollen, they have other products to cater for other needs too! For example the Nano Calcium to replenish calcium in our body and Nano Collagen to supply our body with ample collagen. They also have a product for partial slimming!

 

Over at ADONIS, they not only provide facial services, but also body treatments to manicure etc. Also, they used only 100% natural ingredients in the essences and serums that they used in their procedures.

To be honest, I have never done any facials before and I do not know what to expect for my first treatment with ADONIS. However, I am put at ease knowing that they only use natural ingredients in their procedures and also the atmosphere at ADONIS really is quite soothing.

I am very excited to be part of this and will be going through 3 treatments with ADONIS in the weeks to come. I can’t wait to share my experiences with ADONIS with all of you!

 

Currently leading in top 3 for votes but it’s only at the moment, so do vote for me so I can keep my face there! LOL! XD
