HeArd Of It??

ever heard of gua sha facial??
well, neither do i
i was surfing the net one fine nite and came across this in the forum
ppl were swearing by it, how good how good.......so i decided to give it a try
got the email and wrote in and viola, the girl replied but too bad, the timing weren't right for me.......so in the end told her i will book an appt with her again

and so few weeks long the road, my chance came. dear had a dinner appt with his "zi min"s and i need a facial badly on my "full of blackheads and pimple face" so i wrote in for an appt and VIOLA!! the timing and date was just perfect...........and so gua sha facial here i come.......... =P

at first i thought gua sha facial was from start to end gua sha. but i was wrong......very wrong.......it started with the normal facial procedure........"EXTRACTIONS" and i tell u, it was so so painful but i knew tt the pain was all worth it coz end of the session its pretty pretty face.......and after extraction came the 15 mins or so gua sha.......she took an instructment and gua gua gua. it was painful when she gua to the ear......but again i knew it was worth the pain coz of the blood circulation and all and sooner or later i will no longer have panda eyes and carrot will not always see me and say " hey!! today panda on leave huh?".........*rolled eyes*

after the session, my face feels so "clean"......but i need to say tt actually after each facial session my face does feel clean and light........so what diff huh? i also dun know........ but come to think of it, blood circulation leh, so must be good lah......

overall experience GOOD!! recommendable lah....... try once and u will know........its a bit out of the way for me though, coz its at AMK........dun worry, not shop lor, its at her place.......so if u want her to go to ur place also can but i think pay extra lor..........1st trial is $50 only....subsequent will be $70 or $90......cannot really remember........ =)) not trying to advertise lor, just want to share my gua sha experience........

and ya, i took mrt all the way back home lor, so i guess many ppl will be wondering why my face like this.......not red red lor. its not the gua sha......its the extractions........but who cares, at least today my face radiant lor.......... =p

so if u r wondering what gua sha facial is.........is like this lor.........

and btw, zhuang is also gg to attend a gua sha session organised by her co bah. think she will learns a few strokes, i dun mind to be her guniea pig if she needs one, provided she gua the correct strokes......... *wink*
