I always thought if I do my own skincare regime properly, I do not need any facials or treatments. But seriously I was dead wrong. As much as I assume that I know a lot about my skin, actually I don’t.
Asian Skin Solutions is the only skin salon in Singapore that specializes in Asian skin types. Asian Skin Solutions, specializes in Asian Skin, and targets common skin problems faced by Asians, such as acne, pigmentation and large pores. They can effectively solve any Asian skin problem for both males and females!
They actually run a few tests in depth to analyse the condition of various aspects of your skin! I always assume I have oily skin type. But with the magic wand from Asian Skin Solutions, I found out that I actually have Combination Skin, which is the most common skin type of Asians. Partly due to the humid weather conditions in Singapore, many of us suffer from dry skin actually without knowing it because combination skin tends to secrete excess oil and sebum at our T-zones, giving the illusion that our skin is oily.
The purpose of the oil secreted is an attempt by your skin to ‘moisturize’ your dry skin condition!
After running the test with my beauty specialist, she explained to me a lot of things that is beneficial to my “face knowledge”! She gave me so many tips to take care of my skin. Like things I always forget to do, or things I should take extra care. Which is really really awesome because such exclusive information on your type of skin is something you can’t just simple google from the Internet!
For example, did you know that although your skin may feel oily most of the time, you may actually be suffering from dehydrated skin?!
So its really important to know what is going on with your skin!
One of my biggest concerns of my skin is that it will lose its elasticity… My beauty specialist introduced me a customised skin diffusion treatment to kick start my “entry level” facial that allows my skin to be back to the normal state, as throughout the years I massively neglected it.
It’s time to get my skin healthy all over again! How exciting!
My customized skin diffusion Treatment is the Collagen+ Skin Treatment
(1) Double-cleanse + Scrub: to remove make-up, dirt and sebum on skin surface.
After removing all the BB cream and all that I have on my face, I felt naked yet comfortable as the aroma of the cleanser and scrub made me so calm and relaxed.
(2) Moisture Mask with Softening Essence Treatment:
A relaxing essence mask treatment is to soften stubborn dirt and to prep your skin for better absorption an penetration for following treatments. A gentle formula that soothes sensitive skin as well.
At this point, I felt really good with the fantastic skilful facial massage given by my beauty specialist.
(3) Gentle extraction (if needed): gentle extraction is done only when needed to remove dirt trapped in pores.
I was looking forward to this part of the facial as they will be extracting my white and black heads, and remove stubborn pimples! It wasn’t painful at all! Unbelievable!!!
(4) Collagen Essence Treatment with Repairing device
Collagen extract was applied to assist in repairing of skin cells for a healthier structure. Benefits: firms the skin and gives a lifted effect!
The effect of the collagen essence is further penetrated directly into my skin with the assistance of the repairing device which accelerates the circulation and boost collagen production.
At this stage of the facial… I was ecstatic! My beauty specialist only applied half of my face with the Collagen Essence, and she want to see the difference, as she said the result is INSTANT!
To my amazement, it was! Half of my face was significantly smaller and the skin feels so so so much tighter! I am in love!
(5) Relaxing Facial Pressure Point Massage
To better help in improving facial and eye for detox purposes.
(6) i-Revival Eye-brightening Treatment: a special treatment for your delicate eyes
It helps to boost circulation around the eye areas to relief them for beautiful, brighter eyes! Highly recommended for those who spend long hours in front of the computer or for those who strain their eyes very often.
After 5th and 6th step of the facial, I felt that my eyes were less tired, less puffy and more alert after this part of the facial! Totally enjoyable!
(7) Collagen+ Double Action Treatment Mask
Packed with collagen goodness, this indulgent mask helps to hydrate and replenish your skin’s moisture levels for a soft and supple skin texture.
An intensive hydration mask as the base layer, and the collagen mask on top, to seal in the goodness. This treatment step ensures that the skin absorbs the most of the nutrients, acting like an intensive repairing treatment to not just visibly lift and brighten your skin. It also builds and repairs the foundation of your skin for healthy regrowth and immunity. Skin is immediately more supple and firm!
Overall Review:
After the facial, I tried to apply some BB cream on my face. The BB cream blends in so well into my face, as compared to before the facial! Normally I have some trouble trying to cover up the uneven skin tone. But after the facial, my skin seems to be so much smoother!
My face remains super hydrated for the next week. I noticed that my T-zone was much much less oily. My eyes and cheeks are less puffy and water retention effect was less obvious too!
For the next 7 to 9 days, my skin was definitely much much tighter and firmed up as compared to the skin before the facial! If you were to ask if I will go back to this super awesome Asian Skin solutions customised facial again, the answer is... OF COURSE!
I have two products from Asian Skin Solutions! One is the Pore Refining Lotion and the other is the Light Texture Moisturiser!
Refining Lotion
Asian Skin Solution’s pore refining lotion contains natural Vitamin B5 and Green Tea extracts to minimise and refine enlarged pores without traumatizing or stripping your skin of its moisture.
This lotion is absorbed quickly by your skin and leaving a slight tinge of refreshing smell to let you feel invigorated! This light weight lotion is best for day time usage!! Make my pores visually smaller, always make my face camera ready, for camwhore!
Light Texture Moisturiser
This lightweight moisturiser is so refreshing and finely textured. It absorbs quickly into the skin for maximum hydration at all times! Specially formulated for dull and sensitive skin, add some natural radiance and vitality back to your skin!
One thing I learnt during this trip to Asian Skin Solutions is that moisturising is crazily important! It makes your face less oily! And I am totally hooked on to this moisturizer! It’s so gentle and effective!
