STRIP (AD)

Hey girls! It's been awhile since I’ve blogged about anything, but I thought I would share my thoughts and my experience on my recent trip to Strip! If you’re not sure what it is, they are one of the largest hair removal salon in Singapore and I was visting them to try their new limited edition waxes! 


I’ve only waxed once at another parlor previously before Strip, and I was pretty skeptical about their procedure because I wasn’t sure how painful it would be or what their techniques are.


Fortunately, when I arrived, I was given a Strip Brazilian guidebook that explains everything. From their hygiene precautions, techniques, mantra etc! I’ve taken photos of the pages to clear your doubts if you’re planning on visiting!

If you have any concerns, fret not! Feel free to clear your doubts with Strip’s customer relationship officers or therapists and they’ll tell you what you need to know!


At Strip, they believe that Hygiene, Speed and Quality matters the most!


Strip will never ever use the same pair of gloves on more than one customer. They also do not practice double-dippng. Hygiene, check!


Have a busy schedule? The Brazilian waxing treatment doesn’t exceed 30 mins! Speed, check!


Concerned about quality? Strip’s waxes are all specially formulated for your best pleasure. Quality, check!


If you’re having second doubts, feel free to ring their rescue hotline! Strip also provides bach flower essence, which they drip under your tongue to help calm your nerves, and when you’re calm, the procedure will hurt much less!! Because your muscles are relaxed!


If you’re still worried about the pain, Strip also has extremely cute squeezy toys for you to squeeze on!!


Also, at Strip, there is nothing to be shy or awkward about! You’re in hands of a professional, there’s no need to be worried about her judging you at all!


After a quick brief on what’s about to happen, they brought me into my private room to undress and prepare for the Brazilian waxing treatment. You’ll be given wet wipes to clean yourself up and a towel to cover yourself while waiting!

Here’s how the room looks like! Extremely cozy in my honest opinion!


Their mantras hung up on their walls to remind you to relax and not to worry!

I decided to try the bach flower essence to calm my nerves, even tho my tolerance for pain is extremely high, so I can review it for you guys! Hahaha, it actually tastes like… alcohol? With a very mild fruity taste!

And before I knew it, I was almost done with it already! It was really really fast, definitely less than 30mins and the pain was super bearable. I would rate the pain at about 5/10? Usually for me I feel like a 7 or even a 10 sometimes… especially if I accidentally go for waxing before my period. Because our bodies get weaker pre-period, and the pain sometimes is really… unbearable LOL.

I was genuinely surprised that Strip did it so quickly and professionally, it really didn’t even hurt as much as I remembered it to be!

They’re having an ongoing promotion now till 30th September 2015! For new Strip customers, you can enjoy a Brazilian wax at $35 (U.P. $62) or a Boyzilian wax at $45 (U.P. $85)!


If you spend above $50, you get a chance to play with their jackpot machine!!! And if you get the correct combination, you stand to win vouchers! I almost got a $50 voucher!!!


You can head over to their e-voucher site at www.StripSummer.com for more details and purchase a brazilian wax voucher for your next trip to Strip! Also... if you quote “EricaLim” at checkout, you can receive an additional 10% off!

Strip has 16 outlets in Singapore, it is super convenient!

Their outlet addresses and phone numbers are included on their website as well, making appointment booking much easier.

Have fun and good luck!!

MID WEEK ADVERTS!

hello guys! i know its been awhile since i've done advertorial. mainly because its the festive season and i've been packed with activities since 2013 started. i can't even catch a break! so now i'm drafting this post at 8:44AM! just so you guys can catch up on some good stuff you guys are missing!! (and also because i wanna hurry get this done and play sims3.. hehe)


so.. a few weeks back i paid a visit to all my sponsors! one of them being REVIVE WELLNESS, for my monthly princess brazilian wax! 



if you're not sure what it is, the princess brazilian wax includes a signature brazilian wax, followed by the cold hammer and a vitamin C moisturizing mask! 

and yes! i got the same room again!! the one that i like because its small and cozy :3


and this time they've even added a pillow for you to hug while being waxed! (+1 for providing comfort!) and i personally felt that it was really helpful, because i used it to rest my arms while using my phone!


me in their kimono!! hehehe. you wouldn't wanna lie on a bed completely naked infront of an unknown person riiiiight? so anyway, they also have a bathroom where you can wash yourself before waxing! so you won't have to feel so insecure about.. being dirty....


so in simpler terms, they waxed me and then used this machine and some kind of cooling gel to close up the pores after the wax and then a whitening + soothing mask! (yes, mask for ur vjj) which felt pretty nice after waxing. i love it!! :D i always have a pleasant experience going there!

so if you're interested in getting princess brazilian wax for yourself as well, you may call 6222 0061 to book an appointent now!

a few weeks back, i also visited SHUNJI MATSUO


this time i didn't do much! i just dropped by for some treatment and just a little trim! 


because as you can see in the picture above, my hair is really dry and hard to maintain! i can't even shower without wasting time using conditioner.. :( so.. Shunji Matsuo gave me this simple organic hair treatment!


and usually for me, my treatment goes away after one wash! but this time round, its different! i don't even have to use my conditioner anymore! i just wash my hair with hair dye shampoos and i'm done! and my hair is even smoother than compared to the days where i had to spam conditioner + hair moisturizer! but it's probably because i trimmed my hair too! but what a difference it made!


you obviously won't be able to see it, but maybe if you can come and try touching my hair. it feels so nice and smooth like virgin hair!

last but not least, one of the most important sponsors of mine. its something i use almost everyday and plays a big part in my appearance. can you guess what it is?

*DRUM ROLLS*

its... CONTACT LENSES!! yes, i look really noob without coloured lenses and this is so so important to me, i can't even emphasize how much it helps me to feel better about my looks! this time round, instead of picking something bright, i've decided to try something more natural!

ALL LENSES SPONSORED BY POLALID LENSES SINGAPORE


in the pictures above, i'm wearing SNOW in HAZEL! they're 14.5mm wide so yes, they'll make your pupils look bigger than usual! which will make your eyes look much bigger too! here's a close up on how the lenses look like.


without flash, you can see the black outer circle which helps to make your eyes appear bigger!


with flash! this colour is not very bright, which is good for people who prefer the more "asian" look! but i also like to step ang moh, and here are the other colours i picked! but of course not opened yet!


i'm also proud to say that these lenses are produced in Korea and of course imported from Korea as well. AND, these lenses are certified by KDFA! the certs can be viewed here: X

hence, these lenses may not be the cheapest but they're the safest! but it also depends on how you take care of your lenses and cases! eg. washing your lens case regularly, changing the solution regularly as well. 

Polalid Lenses takes in orders daily and uses speedpost! thus, less waiting time (1-2 weeks max)! SUPER EFFICIENT!!!

HURRY OVER TO THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE NOW AND PLACE YOUR ORDERS!! tons of lenses to choose from!! here were the other few i really liked!!

hi guys! i'm finally back and finally i've got the time to sit down on my computer chair and upload photots > select a few > edit the few > upload the few again > blog! its a long process okay! if u guys didn't know...

so yeap, i went for my second trip to my favourite sponsor..


so if you guys haven't forgotten, they were the ones who did my ombre hair previously! you can read that post here: x


but the top part of my hair faded and it became really light and the colour of it was really draining out my skin tone! so i went there, told my stylist that i wanted something darker but i still wanted to keep my blonde streaks because i loved it too much!! and like i said in my previous post, no questions asked. they just said "ok" and off to work they went! hahaha


look at all my roots coming out.. so ugly!!


embracing the last few minutes of my beautiful blonde hair~


bleaching the inner parts of my hair blonde since i said i wanted to keep it!


dyeing the top part of my hair a darker brown cus darker colours compliments my skin better! and after waiting patiently, i went to get my hair washed and did the organic treatment! its supposedly better for hair because this has less chemicals!!


my classic megamind head. bwahahah and below is the end result after dyeing and bleaching for 4 hours!! and i love it!!! because my hair was previously in an ombre theme, afvter they dyed the ombre parts brown, it turned out to have a very very nice gradient effect of dark brown to ash brown with blonde streaks!! 


look at how pretty it turned out!! i'm so glad i decided to try something else before i chopped off all my hair!! :D THANK YOU SO MUCH SHUNJI MATSUO!! you never fail to make me love my hair :) thank you to Selina specifically who did my hair this time round!

up till date, i've been enjoying ALL my treatments and i never fail to feel pampered and squeaky clean after walking out of their boutique! this time round, i got the same room as the previous one! because i think i DID state that i like the smaller room. heh


me in their kimono!! hehehe. you wouldn't wanna lie on a bed completely naked infront of an unknown person riiiiight? so anyway, i finally had a chance to snap a pic of their toilet at their clarke quay outlet!!


specially for you to wash your vjjs when you reach there!! so you wouldn't have to feel insecure about people touching your dirty thingy.. hahaha
