Why Diamond Peel is good for you

I'm scared of facials. In my twenty-seven kikay years, I have not had a facial in my life...not even once.  I'm  scared of the pricking and stuff that comes with it.  Although I have a lot of friends who has super smooth face because of facials.

With spa centers sprouting everywhere, facials and diamond peel have become super affordable these days.        I've been eyeing "diamond peel" for two years now but never got the chance to try it until I attended the Bioessence's launch in Abreeza a few weeks ago.

I was with Olan, Phillip, and Mark (yes, I'm the unica hija in the bunch--go figure ^.^).  All three guys opted for facials... I asked only for the diamond peel instead.

The correct regimen should have been, a facial and then a diamond peel.  The girl said that diamond peel closes the pores the facial treatment has opened.  I just asked for the diamond peel in the fear that some holes may not close hehe!

For the Spa/Facial Fanatics, they know that Diamond Peel is from that age-old treatment called, dermabrasion.  Except that Diamond Peel is a modern system that uses a gentler approach.  What diamond peel does is that it exfoliates your skin using an applicator head that delivers a steady stream of diamond shaped fine crystals to your skin.  Effect is removal of your old skin leaving your face, smooth and rejuvenated.

Naturally our skin rejuvenates every ten days...but cell renewal is dependent on our lifestyle.  The more unhealthy it is, the slower cell renewal becomes.  Because its slower, imperfections, like skin pigmentations and roughness can be experienced.  Diamond Peel evens that out by exfoliating old and dead skin cells on your face.

Diamond Peel is used to treat the following.

• Aging and sun-damaged skin.
• Some types of acne scarring and acne.
• Altered pigmentation.
• Stretch marks.
• Fine lines.
• Enlarged and clogged pores

Diamond peel can give you a glowing skin, refined skin pores, fewer acne breakouts, younger appearance, a more youthful neck, renewed elasticity, and a good even skin tone.

Best to get diamond peel twice a week if it is for treament.  But for those who already has a clear skin but wishes to maintain it, can avail of the treatment once a week or once every two weeks.

In Bioessence, If you go for a facial, you are automatically treated with Diamond Peel for better results.  It would cost around 1,800 but a special package of Php10,000 is available for 10 facial sessions (from 1,800 to a 1,000/per treatment)

Brazilian blowout @ ENVY ME

Brazilian Blowout is now available in Davao! Yey! Hollywood is currently crazy over this protein-base hair treatment and finally, Envy Me Salon is offering it.For those who are hearing this the first time, Brazilian Blowout a hair smoothening treatment.  

It will do four things to your mane. 

1. It will take the frizz out
2. Because it is protein based, it will strengthen your hair.
3. It will make your hair shiny and manageable
4. restores it back to health.

Unlike its predecessors, Brazilian blow-out is chemical free.  Meaning, it doesn't use the famous formaldehyde solution before, during, or after your hair treatment.  The solution used in your hair is formulated with KeraSafe Bonding Sytem that includes plant extracts of Camu camu and Annato seeds, ingredients that can be found in Brazil.

The treatment's goal is to deposit and seal animo acids in your hair.  This is the key to having a smooth and frizz free mane.

Treatment Duration: about 90 minutes

Procedure: Your stylist will wash your hair, put the solution, iron it, wash it again, deeply conditions it for 1min, and blow dry it.

The treatment will last for 12 weeks.

I did not say anything to my stylist so he thought I wanted it straight, next time,

I'm gonna have it wavy...like J.LO ^.^

Previously treated hair, like rebonded and colored hair, should avail of this treatment because this treatment will strengthen your hair.  Notice how colored hair will will shine in luster.  It will not erase the color as well, but rather, it will make hures .  Damaged hair gets restored in less than two hours with this treatment as well.

After the treatment, you can immediately take a bath, if you like.  BI left the salon and immediately went to eat at the restaurant without having to worry that people will flee because i smelled as if I just repacked one truck of cough syrup. 

Why do I like it? it's summer! I need all the protection I can for my hair and still have it smooth and shiny regardless of how many beach escapades I go to.  It's my solution to having fab hair even at the beach!  I means, I can get up from the bed, brush my teeth and jump in the water without having to worry that I might look like a hag after it's dried.  You can also clip your hair or tie it without having to worry that it will leave marks
