The contour stick, which can also be applied to the waterline, is available in the new color “Classic Brown” No. 12.

The High Shine Lip Gloss in Cinnamon Rose No. 36 with subtle raspberry fragrance makes the lips look fuller thanks to its wet look effect. Its pleasantly creamy and light texture is easy to apply and the fully nylon hairs on the brush ensure maximum color distribution and an even result.

The new Art of Glow Stick in Golden Touch No. 07 gives a soft shimmer with a touch of color.

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

Celebrating with Wellness

An afternoon of wellness and friendship at the Clarins Skin Spa @rustansph @rustansthebeautysourceIt’s my way of treating my co parents, for those who have done so much for our kids, for making an effort whether big or small to make me part of the family. They work so hard to make the kids have a memorable last year in high school so they deserve to relax  and be pampered. Though we were enjoying so much we were so noisy Marilyn said she could hear us and couldn’t relax haha!!  One thing for sure – We all have one thing in common – We love our kids  🙂 #rustans #h2hrustans#rustansthebeautysource #h2hspa#clarinsskinspa #h2hism #h2hcelebrations
