Sponsored Post: DRx O2 Treatment

I went to try out DRx's O2 Treatment! It was pretty damn amazing.

Anyway, before I get into it, the special thing about my facial treatment this time round is....I did it together with Rachell in a couple room! :D
Don't you find it really fun to do facial with your friend?! Like some rich taitai time HAHA.


Rachell brought me some of her homemade caramel macaroons and they are SO DANG GOOD OMG *drooling* I need one now.


So, what is DRx O2 Treatment about?
We were told that this is a really popular treatment among celebrities! They will usually get this done before some big events or photoshoot for that radiant skin. 


O2 Treatment gives IMMEDIATE results - You can see and feel the change in just one treatment!!! 
If you want to look brighter and more radiant, feel nourished and rejuvenated, this is the treatment you should go for. 

On top of that, O2 Treatment gives an overall firmer and smoother skin and also reduces appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

How does it work?
It works through Topical Hyperbaric (THO) Therapy, whereby oxygen is directed to the vital fluids at the surface. 
This is used to promote new cell growth to speed healing and aid absorption of the serums used.



There are two different types for O2 Treatment - O2 Rejuvenate and O2 Whitening.
They did O2 Rejuvenate on me to produce a firmer and smoother look.


That's Rachell camwhoring at the back! Very hardworking - werking it well for our posts HAHA.
And if you're wondering who took this picture, I DID HAHAHA. 

The treatment takes 45 mins to an hour and is completely painless (YIPPEEEE)!

Firstly, your therapist will cleanse your face and prep your skin for the next step.
After that is microdermabrasion. This involves the removal of superficial layers of the skin with a special machine. The result? Clearer looking skin! If repeated over a period of time, microdermabrasion gives skin a smoother texture and reduce fine lines! 
It feels like a tiny but strong vacuum cleaner haha, sucking up all the bad asses from your skin! This is also done in Essential Facial Plus (the facial I did with DRx previously).

Next step is O2 Rejuvenating Treatment, where the goodness will be pumped into your skin with a professional tool. This helps to rehydrate your skin and gives your face a beautiful radiance! O2 Rejuvenating Treatment feels like a small pump, blowing small yet strong wind on your face so the serum will be fulling absorbing and penetrate into your skin.


This is my face after all the goodness! My skin looks a whole lot better the next day! *_*


In the couple room! You can get your friend to go along with you for any treatments! It's always fun to have a friend with you!



If you remember the popular Essential Facial Plus (no down time at all, means you can look pretty right after facial) that I did two months back, quite a lot of my readers have been asking me for the price of that facial.

Essential Facial Plus is $215 and DRx O2 Treatment is $250!

BUT HOLD UP!!!
These treatments are too good to be missed so DRx came up with an offer for Rachell & my readers!! :D

QUOTE "KOAS120" (kay-oh-aye-ass-120) when you call for an appointment with DRx, you'll get to enjoy these treatments (BOTH ESSENTIAL FACIAL PLUS + O2 TREATMENT) for only $120!!!!! :O

$215 + $250 = $465 (U.P) 
That means you save $345!!!  :D

Two treatments will be done seperately so your skin will can get maximum benefits from these treatments:)

If you don't know what KOAS is, it means Kitty On A Spaceship = Rachell & Peishi because Pxdkitty and Speiship HAHAHA. 

Hope you will enjoy your treatments as much as Rachell and I did!

The King Louis

Brought my family to The King Louis for a scrumptious meal the other day! 


I'm sure you've seen The King Louis before!
It's located at Vivo City, right next to Daiso on the third floor.

Courtesy to The King Louis, they hosted a meal for my family and I. 


Just as the slogan states, FEAST LIKE KINGS. 
Kings feast in huge quantity, but also at the finest quality.

I was told the portion will be large but I wasn't told it's gonna be THAT large.


Signature Mushroom Soup - $8.90 


Pumpkin Soup - $7.90

The bowl of soup was so huge, I need to share with someone else.
I was told that the soups are freshly made - grinded and blended from the main ingredient (Mushroom/pumpkin). 


Teriyaki Chicken Salad - $13.80

Fresh garden salad topped with grilled chicken breast meat topped in teriyaki sauce and parmesan cheese.
Definitely the BEST salad I've ever tried and I'll go back just to have this!!! 
Super good, especially the savoury sauce.


Platter C - $21.90

Includes castle drumlets, banana bacon bites, golden calamari, prawn twisters, crispy wedges and also salad.
I LOVE THE BANANA BACON BITE. Sweet and salty. I LOVE BACONS.


The Queen Victoria (serves 4-5pax/ Meat & Seafood) - $166.50

The King Louis serves amazing huge platters like the above so I'll recommend you to bring a huge group of friends along. 
They serve smaller portions as well but I'm sure you'll want to feast like kings instead hahaha. It's quite fascinating to see this huge platter.


Includes Roasted beef with black pepper sauce, Premium BBQ baby back ribs, Pan sneared snapper with wasabi mayo sauce, Oven baked king prawns with melted Australian cheese, Sautéed scallop with garlic and wine sauce.

My favourite in the platter has got to be the scallop and baby ribs!

And what's a good meal without DESSERTS?!?!


Chocolate Macadamia with Ice Cream - $7.90


Hazelnut Dacquoise with Ice Cream - $7.90

Though I was already really full from the meal, there are still enough space for some yummy desserts haha. I really like the Hazelnut Dacquoise because it reminds me of Nutella lol. AND who doesn't like Nutella?? If you loveeeee hazelnut, that's the cake you should go for.


The King Louis is the perfect place to dine-in with your friends and family. It's known as a family restaurant too! Don't you love the design of The King Louis? I always stop and stare at this restaurant 'cause it resembles a castle.

Anyway, Father's day is coming this weekend and The King Louis came up with a promotion for your daddy!


Bring your daddy over for a wonderful Father's Day Banquet this weekend!
You'll get to enjoy an awesome view and music from The King Louis while dining as well! :D

Salon Vim: Privy Treatment

Felt the urge to do something to my hair the other day so I visited Salon Vim...


I've heard so much about their latest treatment - Privy treatment - and I couldn't wait to try it out!


This is BEFORE.
I think I'm not very good at maintaining my hair lol. Look at the frizz! And I need to touch up my black hair roots!
I doubt you can see it from the picture above but I have almost everything we don't want. Split ends. Damaged hair. Frizziness. T _ T


So, I went ahead to try out their new Privy treatment, and I have to admit, I am so satisfied with the end result!

There are three simple steps for the treatment.

1) GENTLE WASH PRO
To cleanse our scalp and hair and prep it for the next step.

2) ENRICH SERUM
Repairs and nourishes our damaged hair and makes it a lot smoother and easier to manage.

3) HOLD CREAM
Holds up the goodness from the previous step so our smooth and manageable hair will last.

AND THAT'S IT! :D
Super smooth hair in less than 40 mins.

I AM SO IMPRESSED because this is honestly the best treatment I've done on my hair and it did what it should do - TREAT our hair!



Usually after treatments, they will apply this magic oil to tame my frizzy hair.


It's called L'Oreal Mythic Oil - and I swear this is amazing. Salon Vim gave me a bottle of this about 3 months ago and I've been using it so much that half a bottle is gone.

If you think your hair's getting difficult to manage, or you're looking for ways to fix frizzy hair, you should head down to Salon Vim Bugis to try out their latest PRIVY TREATMENT....


...and they are having 30% off hair treatments (Redken cocktail treatment and Privy) !!!!!!

This is exclusively for readers and members so remember to quote my name to receive this special discount!

Call Salon Vim Bugis (6837 0045) to book an appointment now! My stylist is Steve so if you like my hair, you can find Steve. :D

DRx: Essential Facial (Plus)

Few days ago, I made a visit to DRx Medispa for a quick facial session! :D
I know it's hard to believe but....ahem, it's my very first facial so I was quite scared of how it will turn out.


Before you read on, I don't have any pretty pictures of myself in this post so please don't panic and run away after you see my no makeup pictures lol. 

DRx Medispa has a different ambience compared to DRx Clinic (you can read my previous post on DRx Clinic HERE).

At DRx Medispa, they have warm lighting and soothing music so it is definitely a very comfortable and relaxing place for your facial.



After using a month of products from Derma-X range, they prepared a facial session for me to quicken the process to having the flawless face I wanted!

For this facial session, they did Essential Facial (Plus) on me!


Just as the name stated, this facial treatment is essential for the maintenance of a good complexion!
It consists of 4 steps.


1) Ultrasonic Cleansing 

Here, they use an ultrasound device to eliminate dead cells from skin's surface and loosen impurities, oil, blackheads and whiteheads within the pores.
After this, it will be easier for them to remove the impurities from your face, without damaging the surrounding skin.

2) Microdermabrasion (Only for Essential Facial Plus)

This involves the removal of superficial layers of the skin with a special machine.
This procedure results in clearer looking skin and if repeated over a period of time, gives skin a smoother texture and reduce fine lines!
DRx Microdermabrasion was awarded a 4-star "Must-try" rating by Female magazine.

3) Extraction

Many of my friends told me facial is so painful because of extraction! I was so scared of extraction so when the therapist told me "I will be doing manual extraction now." I was like "*o* noooooo."
BUT!
I didn't turn out as bad as what my friends said even though I have to admit it's still very painful, plus this is my first facial, so I guess there are really a lot of clogged pores and impurities they need to get rid of.

4) Ultrasonic Nutrient Delivery 

From here, they use an ultrasound device to deliver the goodness such as PG vitamins and essential compounds into your skin!
They used Vitamin C on me for a firmer, younger skin. It is also known to produce an overal skin lightening effect and a more even skin tone!
And YES we can see the difference right after the treatment.


They ended off the facial treatment with a Therapeutic Mask.
MY FAVOURITE PART haha because after the extraction, you will feel like you really need something to cool your face down.
They applied this really thick and cold mask on my face and let me rest for a while. :D

This is how my face looks like, right after the facial.


There is no downtime after the facial - which means you can go out without looking like a complete clown right after haha.
However, your face will still be slightly swollen and have some slight red marks caused by extraction.

BUT!
Within a day, they will all be gone!!! :D


I did the facial a day before filming and it was so smooth and flawless the next day it looks like I have no pores at all lol.

I am still using Derma-X products!
The biggest problem on my face will be my horrible forehead and as you can see from the picture above, it's pretty cleared up already, leaving just a few acne scars which will, hopefully, be gone very very soon!

If you're interested to consult the doctors and is new to DRx,
your consultation fee will be waived off when your mention "Peishi" while making an appointment!

DRx Clinic/ Drx Medispa is located at Tong Building (between lucky plaza and paragon in Orchard), 16th floor. :D

Thank you DRx for the very nice skin and I'll keep you updated regarding my skin. :D

Sponsored post: My first visit to DRx Clinic

Like I mentioned in the previous post, I've made a visit to the dermatologist for my skin.
I've been raging on twitter about my skin recently...

First big problem with my skin is, I REALLY DISLIKE MY FRECKLES!









Most of my friends have been bugging me, telling me how pretty my freckles are, and freckles usually grow on angmohs so that makes me angmoh...

NO.
It's an unavoidable fact that FRECKLES ARE FLAWS to the face. :(
I hate it when people come up to me and tell me "Hey peishi your face got something." then they start rubbing the thing away and I'll be like "Eh it's my freckles.".

I tried many ways to conceal them, even went to most of the expensive cosmetics counters to ask for the best way to conceal my freckles - It can lighten them, but not cover them completely.

You can see them in most of the pictures and no, it's not possible for me to embrace the beauty of freckles. To me, they are flaws.

Another big problem with my skin is the PIMPLES.
Pimples like to grow and start up a huge community on my forehead. I'm lucky to have fringe to cover them so most of you don't get to see them (though my fringe is one of the problems why I get so many pimples on my forehead).
And because of the pimples, I get a lot of pimple scars.

There are also occasional pimples under my lower lip. And then it turns black and I will look weird with that black mark under my lip. :(

Other than that, on normal days, my skin is pretty much alright - Smooth and happy - easy for me to apply makeup and all that. I'm happy with that (other than my freckles + pimples on forehead).

BUT ON CERTAIN DAYS, there will be so many bumps on my face it's impossible for me to apply makeup! *flips table*






:'(

I know my skin isn't THAT bad but it annoys me sometimes, and I know there is definitely a way to solve these problems.
I mean, if I can solve all these problems and get the perfect skin I want, WHY NOT??

So I asked about the price for a visit at the dermatologist on twitter, wanting to visit one as soon as possible.

AND!!!

DRx Clinic approached me so taadang! Now, they are solving my skin problems and I'm on cloud nine hoho.


The other day, I made my first visit to DRx clinic for consultation.

Apparently, we will have to go down to visit the doctor for a consultation and they will prescribe what is needed for our skin!
After that, we'll use the products prescribed to us for a month and see how it goes.
If there are still problems after a month, they will recommend some treatments to be done to our skin - in order to achieve the flawless skin we want.

I've heard many good reviews about DRx clinic so I was more than elated to give them a try.


First, I waited at the waiting area for my consultation.

The doctor that I've consulted is Dr Angela Hwee.


She leaned quite close to me while checking my skin so I managed to look at her skin pretty clearly. HER SKIN IS SO NICE. T _ T

After the consultation, they brought me to the teaching room where there will be a professional to teach us how to use the prescribed products step by step.


After that, we can get our products!! :D


I'm still four days into using the products the doctor has prescribed to me - So far, there are no changes, but it takes about a month so I'll talk about this a month later and hopefully show you the pretty changes!

They told me my skin isn't that bad so they didn't want to provide me with anything too harsh.


Looks pretty scary huh.
If you watched my previous skin care routine video, I only put three things on my face at night. A big change for me but I've heard from people that most Asian ladies put up to 12 products on their face, day and night!! O_O

All their products has abbreviations on them for easy references!


They also provided me with a piece of brochure on the steps of the skin care regime.


Made everything super easy! I don't need the brochure to refer now because I kind of got used to the steps already! :D

After the visit to DRx clinic, they brought me to DRx Medispa too!



The ambience is a lot more different compared to DRx clinic.
The light is orange/yellow so it brings more warmth to the customers.
Glad I learned quite a bit of things while walking around DRx.

I'll come back and tell you how it went after a month in using their products! I'm so excited to see the changes. :D

BYE, thanks for reading! xx
