My Glowing Moment with Facial Care Centre

The thing I love about summer is I get to have all the reasons to polish my look. Call me vain, but with the white beaches beckoning me, I need to have my skin glowing! Flawless as others may say. Problem with me, I've always had sensitive skin (boo!!). I need to do regular facials to let go of old skin and let the new ones shine. (YEY!) Read on as I experienced the much loved Repechage treatments at Facial Care Centre Eastwood branch!

Team Facial Care Centre Philippines' lovely and glowing hosts: Nj ,Aivee and Bea

The pretty team of Facial Care Centre knows how to take care of their friends and clients. I went in with an open mind and an even more "unmade" skin. Aivee ushered me in for a skin consultation. Having known her from before, I was pleased she remembered me and my "skin situation". She automatically recommended the Soothing Indulgence, a luxurious 4-layer Repechage treatment that soothes, rejuvenates and stabilizes oil glands. Yes, sadly at this age, I still have over functioning oil glands. :(

Without a doubt, I needed the Soothing Indulgence Package

I'm one for details. I appreciate the personal touch someone puts on his/her work. It reminds me of when back in High School, it wouldn't be enough to just send in your work. It had to merit the teacher's second look! Check out how the ladies of Facial Care Centre took note of the details (with correct spelling and sizes). Pretty and soft to the touch!!

Feels Like Home at FCC

Getting ready for the 2 hour treatment, I braved myself for a bit of extraction (and surely a lot of time was spent taking out the oil mines i have hidden by the T-Zone area!) The skin was then prepped for cleansing before the facial masks (seaweed and mineral) to be placed on the skin. I had an initial panic alert as I'm a bit claustrophobic ( but Denise, my therapist was very nice and reassuring. She stayed with me and explained every step of the way. You'll feel a bit of heaviness on the face but it will last for about another 15 minutes from the seaweed mask (10mins). And look at the glowing Phantom-moment I had. Doesn't the mineral mask show how happy I am to have done this treatment?! A Diamond Peel caps off this Soothing Indulgence. Expect a bit of sting which is natural with the extractions.

Meet My lovely Smiley Mask

After a week: Just like the Gerbera Daisies and other summer blooms adorning the Eastwood Center, I felt the glow. Albeit not instantly, it takes a while for my skin to recoup. Sandy to the touch but glowing and smooth after 4 days, I couldn't have asked for more! Mental check: I need to do this regularly and more often when summer is coming up!!

Summer Blooms brighten up My Day

Interiors: The Facial Care Centre Eastwood is newly opened. It's been years since they've opened a new branch and what perfect location than at the Libis Area at the MDC building (beside Eastwood). Clean, spartan and with a good view of the city, I like that the rooms are all well-lit. It gives you a condo-ish feel and not a hospital-feel vibe. There are a lot of rooms available so you're sure to have privacy and silence while undergoing some treatments. I call it a haven of tranquility. That for me is a winner!

Clean and Functional Private Rooms are love

A Summer Tip: The Laser Hair Removal is something they do quite well. Depending on the areas you need to work on, I suggest you go for these early in the year to make sure more areas are targeted in time for summer! I've tried it on the legs and it makes the legs smooth!! Summer Love indeed.

The Facial Care Centre Eastwood may be visited at the 30th Floor MDC Building Libis, Quezon City. Call (2) 892-SKIN to schedule consultations.
