Rain rain go away....

~Rain rain go away

Come again another day

Little PoHpOh wants to play~

The rain just wouldn't stop

and there are only so many things I can do at home.

Finally decided to beat the rain and step out of the apartment to head to the gym.

My hair is still 'bleeding'.

Went facial with Fion today - at Maggie Beauty (http://www.maggiebeauty.com/)

Honestly, for HKD 250, the deep cleansing treatment is really not good - only the HK artiste who endorse it looks extremely good.

I felt like I could do a better job steaming my face, and applying mud mask on my face.

Their service was not fantastic in the first place, and the lady didn't let me know what she's putting on my face at each stage - unlike my therapists at Wellness Village Spa.

I think it's important to interact with the customer, since they're supposedly the pros - who can advise what/how I should take care of my skin. No thank-yous to comments like, 'Wah, your skin very dirty.' I know that already, that's why I'm spending $$ to pay your salary. BLEH.

So we went shopping for skincare products at Sogo CWB thereafter. Women have a tad too many beauty products to choose from - each brand claiming to do wonders to your skin and help preserve your youth.

Some good products Fion recommends:

1. Clinique Total Turnaround Visible Skin Renewer

2. Laneige Water Sleeping Pack Plus - gel-like mask to put overnight

3. Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil

Ah... if only Emperor Qin did find life's elixir.

We found good food though. XO Cai Tao Kuay. Papaya with Hashima and sago. Steamed egg white with Hashima and bird's nest. 'Tong Baig Laig'-Peanut glutinous balls.

And we did something very naughty after that.

We went to all the jewelry stores along causeway bay to look at engagement rings - and erm, pretended that our bfs are going to propose - so we're checking out the designs to make sure they don't buy something we don't like. =)

So we got free lessons on how to choose a good diamond.

The diamonds and the engagement rings all start to look the same by the time we got to the third shop. =_=

Some of these rings are crazily priced - S$25k! which Eric chin said...'Imagine wat 25k can do for your marriage ...things u can buy for your new house ...much much more practical than a lousy ring that u be too scared to wear out everyday'

Haha, that's true... but diamonds are forever, and a girl's best friend too! ;) Saw from one of the store's booklets that a 75 years anniversary is known as Diamond Anniversary.

You can wear it for 75 years! 25k divide by 75 is only 333 per year and less than S$1 a day! Quite a good investment to make the love of your life happy right? *wink*

Haha, siao liao.
