There is countless
definition on BEAUTY. To me, BEAUTY is
not just about the external appearance. Do you think by altering your physical
appearance will makes you look more attractive and beautiful in the end? I doubt
that, if a person really knows what the meaning of BEAUTY is. Undeniable, women
love to dress up with hair and makeup done to look good, that is true when you
are heading somewhere or having a date out. But, does that makes you beautiful,
literally?
Being brought up in a
family where mom doesn’t really fancy about makeup, it actually affected me as
a daughter in a way where I am not so into makeup as well. Ok, I know it sounds
so wrong if I would to say I don’t use makeup at all. My makeup is pretty
simple where I just put on fake lashes (I don’t fancy mascara) and apply a good
foundation. That’s it! I always try not to put on too heavy makeup as it will
makes my skin look worse than ever, imagine a person who put on makeup every
single day, what if she goes without any makeup one day, guess what she looks
like? You don’t want to end up showing people your pale looking face as if
you’ve gotten ill, nay?
Mom educated me about
practicing a good skin care regime since I was at the age of 12. It’s been more
than 10years for now since I practiced a good skin care regime. My definition
on beauty is pretty simple. It is all about self-confidence, being healthy and
possessing a good personality. Having a good looking healthy skin is my best
booster for self-confidence!
People around always
said that I have smooth rosy skin but I always disagree with them as I don’t
like to looked like a tomato face. But anyway, thanks for all the compliments.
Secret to a young healthy looking skin is to drink more water and of course use
suitable skin care products to maintain it. I’ve tried a lots of different skin
care brand, changing every now and then as when age is growing, your skin
condition will change too. Therefore, you must know how to search and look for
the suitable ones for your skin.
On a fine weekend, I had
the privilege being invited to a facial pampering session with bloggers. It’s RODIAL. It sounds so familiar but I could
not recall for a moment until I was informed that they have outlets at
Robinson, The Gardens.
Rodial has been in
Malaysia for about 2.5years, I’m not sure if you’ve heard of that but please
bear with me here, I’m falling in love
with it so I’m sharing my experience with Rodial to you readers.
Greeted by these
products on display and I was stoned with the names: Dragon Blood & Skin
Bleach? I hope they don’t bleach my skin and pour on red potion filled with
dragon blood. *LOL*

When I was struggling
to find out and understand what those names all about are, a friendly gentleman
sat down next to me and start explaining. He was the medical advisor for
Rodial, Dr.Iqbal Farim Rizal Wong. He shared and explained almost each of the
products in detail. Even with my question repeated, he still managed to provide
me a good answer. As I am a very particular person when it comes to skin care
products, I asked all kind of questions even some sound silly. It was a great
sharing session from Dr.Iqbal before I start my facial using Rodial products. I
feel much comfortable after all the explanation, and enjoyed the facial session
hoping to see some promising results.

Voila! This is my
after-facial look, I felt awesome as it was amazing to know that after facial,
my skin looked as if I’ve put on makeup (as I always encounter redness/greasy
looking skin after facial) ! What makes my skin looked so good? Credit to the
final step of facial, the beautician applied BB Venom Skin Tint. It gives me a flawless looking, achieving a smoothilicious skin!
BB Venom Skin Tint: One of the latest innovation from Rodial, this ultimate product gives you flawless looking skin.

4. Glamtox 5 minute facial: Glamtox = "Glamorous alternative to Botox". This is a clay mask that helps to reverse signs

absorbs impurities and reduces pore size.
Contains LaraCare which firms, lifts and reduces appearance of fine
lines and wrinkles; while Argirline
reduces stress in skin and relax contracted muscles. The therapist applied this
mask to my skin and I start to feel some cooling menthol effect but I was
wrong, it was actually sting feeling as it contains some botox ingredients
where it helps firming and lifting. After 5 minutes, therapist gently remove
the peel by rubbing the skin with fingertips, finish by wiping off residue with
facial sponge.

5. Dragon’s Blood Sculpting Gel: The most wanted
liquid facelift! It helps define facial contours and plump away saggy skin with
Collageneer and Volufiline. Dragon’s blood works by forming a unique second
skin-like film on the face which effectively protects, reduces redness and
firms for smoother, youthful looking complexion. Read here for Angelina Jolie's secret in having glowing complexion. And Lady Gaga's favorite too!
6. Dragon’s Blood Eye Gel: Instantly
reduce under-eye puffiness and dark circles. The cooling gel refreshes and
hydrates puffy eyes with magical concoction of rose water, arnica, hyaluronic
acid and dragon’s blood. Dark circles formed by complex physiological mechanism
such as weak capillaries. The small blood vessel will web the skin around the
eyes when capillaries are weak, thus red blood cells leak out causing bruised panda looking eyes.
7. Glamoxy Snake Serum (Best Seller):
Botox has been booming around and not all women can afford for it nor some
people could not bear the pain of being injected. When Rodial’s Glamoxy Snake
Serum entered the cosmetic spotlight, it was then an essential wrinkle-plumper.
It is a revolutionary oxygenated, viper-inspired serum contains syn-ake; an
advanced neuropeptide that mimics the effects of Temple Viper’s venom, give a
mild freeze-like effect supporting the reduction of visible facial contractions. Best for smokers as they tend to have bad
looking skin as a result from smoking. This serum will helps providing oxygen
to the skin and relax the muscle.
