Birthday Treat to Self

By | Celebrations, Spas | No Comments

I was not able to do any treatment during our afternoon of wellness

Previous entry:  Celebrating with Wellness April 26, 2017

So I planned it on the day of my bday so I could relax.  What a great idea Rica!!! 🙂

This year I am making a conscious effort to take care of myself.  I have been so busy all my life and I have failed to take care of myself, meaning my health, my own personal well being, my skin, my body, and just everything for myself.  Thank you to Rustan’s for showing me the best products and the best things I can do to help me achieve this goal of mine.

 So for my birthday, I scheduled a treatment in the Clarins Skin Spa in Rustan’s Makati.  It was the best way to celebrate and treat myself.Celebrating with Wellness (6)

 My therapist was Tess who has been with Rustan’s for 17 years and with Clarins specifically for 12 years.  She used to do treatments for me in the past and I am glad she is still there.  She took care of me.  The products and the techniques they use in Clarins are really good.  I have tried many spas all over the world and I have to say that Clarins is one of the best. You will have to try it to understand what I mean.

Tess Clarins spa Rustans Makati In the Clarins spa, the products placed on the body are heated in this machine so when they are placed in the body it is not cold and uncomfortableClarins skin spa heat rustans When you choose a body scrub you have to take a shower after and you can use the Clarins body products 🙂  By the way the scrub is amazing 🙂  It is a simple scrub but the product is amazing – your skin feels so good and smooth afterClarins Bath products Rustans makati I did not have a facial treatment since I wanted to concentrate on my body for scrub and slimming/firming ( haha!! ) but I requested for a mask while they were doing my body and she gave me the PAMPER MASKClarins skin spa rustans philippines mask After my treatment I sat here to fix my hair and groom a bit before leaving the spaClarins Skin Spa Rustans Makati 1 And they gave me TWG tea – wow 🙂  All these little details mean a lotClarins skin spa twg tea rustans philippines

Sometimes we spend so much on our face and daily to take care of our body thinking nobody will see it haha!!!  It is not too late to start in your 40’s like me so I am going to start now.  Trying out these first

New Lasema Spa

By | Spas | No Comments

A few weeks ago i visited this new place – New Lasema. Thank you to Gloria @its.gloriadiaz for the tip. It’s an 11 year old spa but it transferred from Malugay to a new location, new building (3 floors) and now with newer additions to its offering. It’s owned by a Korean who is there Which is maybe why the staff are attentive.  Mean in the reception is also very nice and strict.   I had no cash and couldnt pay using credit card – it’s a good thing my driver had cash !  Check it out while it’s still new. New Lasema Spa (4) New Lasema Spa (5)New Lasema Spa (2)On the ground floor is a nice bakery and cafe, salon and nail spa, laundry, bank. 2nd floor is the reception, lockers and wet spa – pools.New Lasema Spa (6) New Lasema Spa (7) New Lasema Spa (8) New Lasema Spa (52)  Patricia in the ladies locker was very helpful – i like her.New Lasema Spa (53) Entrance to the wet area/spa and pools.  Just like in Japan you have to be naked so I hope i don’t bump into any of you while I am there haha!!New Lasema Spa (54)New Lasema Spa (55) Shower before using the pools is etiquette.  They also have enclosed showers in case you are shy like me:-)  Though I have gotten used to it after doing this always in onsens in JapanNew Lasema Spa (56)  Interesting 🙂  I have never done this before but there is a spa for your private part 😉 New Lasema Spa (11)New Lasema Spa (9)New Lasema Spa (10)New Lasema Spa (12)New Lasema Spa (13)3rd floor is the Jjimjilbang – dry spa – sauna and ice room.New Lasema Spa (91)New Lasema Spa (23)New Lasema Spa (58)Steps on how to enjoy at a Jjimjilbang – Korean Sauna and Spa #jjijilbang#lasemaspa #newlasemaspa #h2hspa#h2honsen
New Lasema Spa (22) New Lasema Spa (24) New Lasema Spa (25)They have sleeping caves for single or families. I think maybe some people use it like a hotel since its open 24 hours and you can check in anytime. It’s cheaper than a hotel and you can use the Jjimjilbang

They have no website or instagram – just facebook. Weekdays are cheaper than weekends and ofcourse is more peaceful ( though i find it busy already even during weekdays). I did a full package for P 841.50 ( P990) for full package since they had an opening promo of less 15% til jan 31. That was good for 12 hours – use of jiljimbang, massage and wet sauna. #newlasemaspa #lasemaspa#h2hspa #h2honsenNew Lasema Spa (89)New Lasema Spa (82)New Lasema Spa (83) New Lasema Spa (84) New Lasema Spa (85) New Lasema Spa (86) New Lasema Spa (87)

This is a unisex area so everyone is given a tshirt and shorts to wear in this area and in all other common areas. New Lasema Spa (3) These are the mats for sleeping which are provided  – I don’t find them to clean so I suggest you bring your own mat ( i do not know if this is allowed ) or you bring bedsheets to cover them if you plan to use one of the cavesNew Lasema Spa (80) These are for sitting I guess in the rooms and in the dining areaNew Lasema Spa (81)At the New Lasema Spa ( mkti) #lasemaspa #newlasemaspa #h2hspa #h2hhealth This is the hottest room at 85 degrees.  I did not enter here anymoreNew Lasema Spa (28) New Lasema Spa (29)New Lasema Spa (31) New Lasema Spa (32)Yellow Soil with Amethyst roomNew Lasema Spa (69)

Biologique Recherche

By | Beauty, Spas | No Comments

I have very sensitive skin and a few weeks ago discovered Biologique Recherché which did wonders for skin!!!

Even skincare can be personalized / bespoke. Biologique Research a 35 year old family owned company from Paris, available in 72 countries and now in the Philippines exclusively at the Chi Spa Edsa Shangrila Hotel

Using a specific physiological, behavioral and tactile approach, each person’s “Skin Instant” is assessed so that the most appropriated tailored beauty treatment can be recommended.

biologique Recherche chi spa edsa shang
Doctor Philippe Allouche second generation family owner.

And Ruby Coyiuto talking about P50 which is BRs award winning product among the Top 50 in the world.  It’s a miracle potion that will correct whatever your skin needs!! 

A brand that takes a profound approach to beauty – from a research and development laboratory 35 years ago, Biologique Recherche now celebrates a long-standing reputation of creating products with astounding effectiveness, using only the purest and most concentrated ingredients  under highly scientific, meticulous clinical protocols.

    At the very core of Biologique Recherche’s approach in crafting its skin care products and services is a unique way to look at the skin. Dr. Philippe Allouche-one of the brand’s pioneers-coined the term Skin Instant, referring to the change in each individual’s skin condition throughout the course of the day and as it goes through life. Skin Instants differ per person, and the Biologique Recherche way is to treat each individual’s skin based on its specific Skin Instant. That said, the methodology behind Biologique Recherche products comes in seven stages of treatment, where the Skin Instant is analysed and a customized formulation is applied.

Biologique Recherche (4)

The Assessment Stage 

1.Assessment of the Epidermis. Biologique Recherche believes that the state of the epidermis 9the skin’s “roof,” as it were) is telling of the skin’s internal state. That said, a personalized assessment of the epidermis and the Skin Instant is done, to determine the feel of treatment the client is supposed to receive.

The initialization Stage

2.Relaxation. Cleansing milk is used to remove make-up and to massage the skin.

3.Preparation. Lotion P50 is applied to remove impurities while keeping the skin’s pH level.

4. Mask application is done to condition and stimulate the skin.

The Treatment Stage    

5.Remodeling Face. Four currents are used to improve skin volume and radiance. 

6.Quintessential Serums are customized by the beautician.

7.Finishing creams and serums are applied to prolong and optimize the treatment.

No less than the Chi Spa at the EDSA Shangri-la Hotel houses Biologique Recherche’s Philippine headquarters which offers this in-depth and highly specialized approach to skin care. As a fitting celebration, members of the media and bloggers will experience Biologique Recherche first hand in a launch event on July 7 (Tuesday) at Chi Spa, where they could avail of several Biologique Recherche treatments.

Biologique Recherche is exclusively distributed by Eiskin Laboratories, Inc.

Present during the event were the brand’s pioneers, straight from Biologique Recherche’s beauty institute in Paris: Dr. Philippe Delapalme and Mademoiselle Monique Terol, Biologique Recherche Paris’ International Trainor. Dr. Allouche & Mr. Delapalme took the stage together to give light on the products’ vision and formulation. Ms Rubby Coyiuto, Eiskin Laboratories’ CEO was responsible for bringing Biologique Recherche to the Philippines. It took her three years to find a home in the country.

The experience was relaxing as it was holistically gratifying a trio of activities aimed to rejuvenate the skin from within and urge the guests to celebrate their beauty. The seven-step methodology that Biologique Recherche is known for involves a personal skin consultation at the very onset, to determine the individual’s personal skin state and concerns. This same process of skin analysis was done during the event, with Mademoiselle Terol and Dr. Allouche examining each of the guests.

After consultation, the Biologique Recherche treatment was waiting for guests to experience: a deep skin treatment done by the Chi The Spa Biologique Recherche therapists, who were personally trained by Mademoiselle Terol. Treatments are personalized and modified for each guest’s specific skin concern, which is the same kind of treatment clients could expect if they avail of products or services from Chi The Spa.
