Just a short post since I finally got to try RF on my face…. and while it's not something that I'd use regularly (NOT being in the target age group, yet), OMG, visible results:
My face was quite visibly slimmer, though I wouldn't say tighter. No need for contouring, effects lasting at least 24 hours. I'm too excited to delay this post any longer since I first saw myself.
I think if I ever went to a big event, I'd like to try it again. It's no wonder brides like to use this as part of wedding prep.

Ped Egg
With all the fuss about Scholl's foot file thing on the Internet and in real life, I've found myself having a renewed appreciation for my old and neglected Ped Egg.

Asian Secrets Lulur... a second look
Something i've stocked on and off since college is Asian Secrets Lulur Scrub. Its cheap its effective and it smells so good.
Unlike what the instructions say, I put a generous amount on WET skin and scrub. This gives me just the right amount of exfoliation, seeing the dead skin sloughing off my legs, and I smell great afterwards.
The only down side I saw previously ... it tended to leave my shower floor a gritty mess. Thus, I tended to buy a jar and just use it for those really lazy days when I need a good bit of exfoliation and when I was too lazy to use lotion.
But something else haunts me now.

Shampoo Methodology
Shampoo has existed for a really long time and there are many different kinds available today, from mass produced, jumbo sized synthetic cheapo bottles to its exact opposite.
Regardless of its many varieties, I know but 4 standard methods of head cleaning.
1. Shampoo only - usually done by those with uber short hair, this is the quickest way to clean your head. I've used this method when my hair is short, I'm feeling too lazy to condition or I've done a deep conditioning mask a day before hand.
2. Shampoo then conditioner - the most common way a girl washes her hair, as inundated by a ton of beauty products and ads. Unfortunately, it also takes way too long to clean my hair sine I'd have to do do a rinse for both shampoo and conditioner. I reserve this method for deeper hair cleaning sessions and dirtier surroundings such as after extensive labor.
3. Conditioner then shampoo (Reverse 'Poo) - not quite as common as the ones above and below it, I prefer this method since it cuts my shower time by at least 20%.
4. Condioner only (No 'Poo) - gained in popularity a couple of years ago, but not too much in hot, humid and polluted surroundings like Manila. I've tried this method a couple of years ago when I was on break and had to give up on Day 5, even without a heavy workload. It just doesn't feel as good or clean as using something with shampoo.
Which way is best?
