In case you are looking for someone to do home service waxing, call Cris. I am helping her also get more clients. Cris is the daughter of Ana who we used to call. But Ana has gone blind 🙁 and so it is Cris who we call now

After our lunch at 2nd’s ( Previous entry: 2nd’s June 8, 2011 ) and after talking about all our “finds,” we rushed to Lush which is a short walk from 2nd’s at Bonifacio High street. We are all Rustan’s loyalists even if we do not work there anymore. Only Luzanne is left still working in Rustan’s. But we always still shop at Rustan’s and LOVE RUSTAN’s!:-)
I was happy to know about the products at Lush because sometimes I just enter because of the smell and everything looks nice, but I just don’t know what to buy. Now my girlfriends showed us their favorites which are tried and tested:-)
Sultana seemed to be a favorite of many. Lucille said that you can even use it as a car or drawer freshener. Lush has all these really nice smelling scents. We even tried washing our hands with this soap and the after smell was so good
Karma is also a recommended body soap by Des and Luzanne
This is the hair wash Luzanne recommended. Very effective for temporary hair loss
Det said to make sure to buy the tin can to put the soap so that it will last for 100 washes!
Det said that any of these massage bars are good!
Lush made a killing that day from our shopping! 🙂 Love the paper bag! Til our next shopping adventure!

I am trying to help my friend, Winny, meet more clients because I think that he is very talented. Winny trained in Rever Academy in Hong Kong and was awarded Outstanding in Men’s cut and Ladies cut and double exposure. He used to work in Sensei Salon in Manila Hilton and among his clients were Melanie Marquez, Maria Resa and Korina Sanchez. He then tried to have his own parlor with a partner but it did not work out so now he only does home service. He can do hair and make up. I have not tried the make up yet but he has been cutting my hair for the past 2 years already. And Winny is a very very kind and soft spoke person, I really like him.
He charges only P 500.00 for home service but of course will appreciate additional tips if you like his service. What I do is I try to gather as many people like my sons or my Mom so his trip is more worth it.
If you want to try Winny Kitalig, give him a call +63-929-622-8479. He will be so happy. I told him to expect calls from my friends 🙂
I treated Mom to a haircut by Winny and she is of course a better model than me 🙂 And Mom is happy, this is her second cut already by Winny since I introduced them to each other

An inspired blend of artistry and advanced biotechnology empowers La Prairie’s White Caviar Illuminating Système, which combines peerless lightening and lifting benefits in the most luxurious formulations known to your skin. Truly the Age of Enlightenment in skincare.
This complementary three-part system is comprised of a gloriously silken cream and two highly concentrated serums. Each is scientifically formulated to effectively treat your skin’s age-related problems of uneven pigmentation and age spots; loss of firmness, accompanied by fine lines and wrinkles; and general dryness and reduced clarity. In addition – an important plus! – it possesses amazingly proactive powers to stave off future signs of aging.
Caviar-Class Firming And Lifting
Precious Golden Imperial Caviar Extracts, derived from carefully regulated, farmed sources that respect the environment, is the regal “signature” of the White Caviar Illuminating Système, as well as the heart of its exalted lifting and moisturizing qualities.
Rich in Omega-3 fatty acids and an important source of marine DNA, these rare Caviar Extracts firm and nourish the skin with vitamins, nucleic acids, phospholipids and proteins, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and promoting a more youthful appearance. They also help boost the skin’s antioxidant level of defense, improve its moisture barrier and play a key role in the firming process.
Additional contributors to the superb lifting and firming action is an Anti-Wrinkle Peptide, which reduces wrinkles caused by facial contractions; Indian Frankincense, which helps inhibit the elastin-degrading elastase enzyme; and a unique Caged Peptide, exclusive to La Prairie, which increases collagen synthesis.
Brilliant Brightening Action
Powerful lightening agents lie at the heart of White Caviar Illuminating Système. Prominent among these is La Prairie’s Clarifying Whitening Complex, whose multi-faceted formula contains strongly antioxidant Larch Tree Extract and a tetrapeptide complex, which together have a mighty whitening/brightening effect on your skin.
This action is enhanced by detoxifying Swiss Garden Cress Sprout Extract, which protects the skin from environmental stress factors, helps diminish pigmentation by stimulating the skin’s antoxidant defense system and reduces the accumulation of cellular debris, which is important in maintaining an even skin tone. In addition, encapsulated Tragranate Licorice Extract helps prevent brown spots from developing and naturally antioxidant Vitamin C reduces melanin formation and helps promote even-toned skin.
White Bouquet Of Protective, Hydrating Agents
Enhancing the skin-rejuvenating action of these latest additions to La Prairie’s legendary Caviar Collection are multi-level hydrators, which provide an instant burst of moisture and ensure its retention by strengthening the moisture barrier.
These include Supportive Moisturizing System, a Resveratrol-rich plant extract, rare White Honey, White Truffles, strongly antioxidant White Wine Extract and White Tea Complex, and White Flower Complex, which improve moisture retention, energize skin cells and protect the skin against aging factors.
A Deep Moisturizing Complex and La Prairie’s exclusive Cellular Complex – highly moisturizing and nourishing, profoundly rejuvenating – round out these sophisticated formulas.
White Caviar Illuminating Cream: Luxurious Luminescence
Going to the core of discoloration and age spots – among the most frequent and troubling signs of maturing skin – White Caviar Illuminating Cream treats both the source of the problem and alleviates its visible signs. It also anticipates this common phenomenon by slowing down irregular pigment formation to prevent age spots from appearing.
Sublimely Lightweight, Intensely Moisturizing
This luxuriously lightweight, intensely moisturizing cream is a water-in-oil powder emulsion with its active ingredients suspended in water, to be released when the cream is applied, together with emollients that protect and hydrate the skin. It also has an immediate beautifying effect, producing a layer of powder that creates a smooth, even appearance. The micro-sized spheres of the powder act as reflective mirrors to camouflage surface imperfections and give your skin a silken luminosity.
White Caviar Illuminating Serum: Potent Infusion Of Light
The skin-brightening ingredients of this potent serum, the most concentrated formula in the White Caviar Illuminating Système, act at all stages of pigment formation and accumulation to infuse the skin with light and energy and ensure a clearer, more even tone.
The ideal preamble to White Caviar Illuminating Cream, White Caviar Illuminating Serum prevents the development of age spots and discoloration by decreasing melanin production and lowering the transfer of melanin to the skin cells. Pearlescent pigments and liquid crystals endow the skin with a luminescence that seems to come from within.
Multi-Faceted Action Plan Targets Uneven Pigmentation
A highly effective anti-pigmentation package, composed of Diolic Acid, Vitamin C and Oligopeptide-34, targets the full range of pigmentation problems, including age spots, melasma and darkened patches of skin. Likewise, an elevated level of Golden Caviar Extract, with its high concentration of Omega-3 fatty acids, produces stellar firming action, in addition to nourishing the skin with vitamins, nucleic acids, phospholipids and proteins.
White Caviar Illuminating Eye Serum Lifts And Lightens
The fragile skin surrounding the eyes, where excess pigmentation can be the most pronounced in the form of under-eye darkness and circles, stands to benefit handsomely from White Caviar Illuminating Eye Serum, which lightens and firms in one brilliantly executed formula.
It employs advanced technologies and active ingredients to zero in on a specific challenge: darkness in the eye area caused by a combination of excess pigmentation and deficient circulation. It also provides instant brightening, while smoothing out the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, diminishing the sensation of puffiness, improving elasticity and firmness and refining the skin’s surface. Long-term benefits are equally impressive as potent antioxidants protect and maintain the delicate skin tissue.
Synergistic Action Of Carefully Calibrated Complexes
It’s the unique synergistic action of brightening and firming complexes and natural extracts that enable White Caviar Illuminating Eye Serum to produce its remarkable results. You cannot only expect immediately visible improvement; the results of the serum’s firming and lifting action are both long-term and progressive.
Here’s how it works: La Prairie’s Clarifying Whitening Complex and detoxifying Swiss Garden Cress Sprout Extract, together with Tragranate Licorice Extract, reduce excess under-eye pigmentation, stimulate circulation, and help prevent brown spots from forming. Golden Caviar Extracts and Anti-Wrinkle Peptides firm and nourish the skin. An eye zone-specific Crow’s Feet Plumper targets the radiating lines that form in the outer corner of the eyes by reducing the wrinkle network and increasing skin density and caffeine helps reduce the feeling of puffiness.
With La Prairie’s White Caviar Illuminating Système, your skin is in for a clearly enlightening experience.
La Prairie is exclusively distributed by Rustan’s Commercial Corporation.
