Body Contours - near City Hall

Back to Facial time :) This time is the poke poke,pain pain one :p Although looking at the name above, it feels as though this is a slimming centre...

This one had called me for some 'free trial' (as usual) Wonder how they always manage to get my contact!

Anyway i went to try and they were persuading me to try this treatment and Pay Extra for my eyes, i often wonder why EYE and FACE treatment dont come together when it's like all on 1 face! not as though the eyes is way far away from the face.

Anyway i did, because i have got pretty bad dark eye circles (probably going to tan myself will be a better idea so that it's not so obvious) So i decided that if it's not very expensive, i should just allow myself to go ahead even though i already have treatment somewhere else. :)
It was pretty ok, but yea, PAIN because it's the poking and squeezing process, face will be redder from normal. And it's really TEARING process for me because i really think that my skin is so THIN la! So every poke is like WAHHHHH... And i feel that although there's no scarring up till now, but my skin has got those dots with darker colours on my face.

Service was good and price wise, it's consider much more affordable than my other facial. And is also much easier to make appointment compared to the other one as well...
For here, i also have a fixed lady who does the facial for me and so it's easier for you to relate and for them to notice any difference in your skin compared to previous session.

For me, i only go there about 3times a year just for a 'clean-up' or when i feel that it's time to go...

They also do have massage, Chiro services as well if i didnt remember wrongly.
And the tea they serve quite nice! I enjoy a small cup whenever i'm done with facial, it's really quite good.

My only complain is the walk there from the station, for myself, i would really prefer a location whereby once i exit from the train station i can easily see it. probably like right across the road.

St Regis (SG) Staycation

This hotel is under SPG(Starwood Preferred Guest) Cat 6. So yup, you can tell that it's a 5star hotel at least ;p
So if you are going there, probably you can sign up for SPG member since it's Free and you can accummulate your spendings into points (note: counted in USD, so SGD will be converted accordingly)

Was there for my birthday last year 2012, so my comments are as of last year ;)

ROOM:
Room was really good. I took the Lady Astor room, and it was Wonderful choice. They did up the room as per request, though abit simple but it's the thought that counts.
They also have a butler attached so i saw 3butlers in total at different timings, Russian, Japanese and 1more i cant quite remember. ;p
The room is big and spacious, 2beds ok! They also serve unlimited tea as long as you want them.





I also had my bubble bath after my friends left, so Happy.... And it was also done by the butler who came up at an agreed timing so that my water wouldnt turn cold. :) Yes, even at midnight, they also will come up and prepare the bath for you... HA.. so feel free to call them since they are round the clock...SERVICE FULL MARKS!!!!!
 


Was given a birthday cake by them :) It's a nice surprise and so sweet of them right?
And it was sent up to me by the Russian butler! I like him! Cake was good, i had to bring home because i had a cake already, so this one i left in the fridge and ate them the next day.
It's very nice ;p



They also have a pool whereby it's not very interesting for me. Kinda limited with not much view, but for a relax swim, it's kinda nice... :)
Breakfast wise, i was there at the so call 'wrong time' because their breakfast restaurant was under reno, so we were placed in a ballroom to eat. For the price we paid, the breakfast isnt worth it on that day, not too sure if its the same at the restaurant and the ballroom but unless your room comes with breakfast, if not, suggest dine out since it's near Orchard Road, just take a walk out and probably nicer food is out there waiting for you ;)

Hair Inn -AMK

Maybe because I choose to do on a not so busy day to dye my hair.there are 2people helping me do so that time is saved. Tea is served, think nowadays most hair salon does serve drinks.

I started around 7.25pm so let's see what time I can end.
This is the first time I am colouring my hair at a dresser, highlight I have done few times at salon and done colour several times DIY so this is the first time I am getting others to do for me.

My length of hair falls under the price of $81, for dye & cut.
I chose INOA think it's spelt something like that which is not smelly at all (because I simply don't like ammonia smell) but no smell meant additional $50.which I guess was worthwhile because now I can happily type as they do my hair without the Choking smell.
Staff wise, bit rough,pull me here there everywhere but hopefully with all the pulling and pain the colour will be even and thorough.

After which 1of them helped to cut my hair and she gave me alot of advice of my hair type so that I do not make my hair disaster especially after I specially dyed my hair. So i didnt managed to change my hairstyle alot, only cut my fringe and bit of the length.

I ended my session at around 9, so i am still quite impressed :)

Love of Food - The Green Bar (Millenia Walk)

TBG got 2 outlets, 1 at Raffles Place, the other one at Millenia Walk but only the latter serves Brunch on weekends whereas the R.P one only serves Salads :) I got to eat the salads most of the time and so I used the weekends to try the brunch they serve on Sundays normally.
Brought my friend over together to try out together. I took the pancakes because i want to see the mini-cup of whip cream and my friend chose the BIG BOSS something like that to eat.
It's Superb, it's really nice. It's also very filling.
My friend enjoyed it alot and mentions that the BACON really got Meat because most of the time the bacon that we have always is the oily bacon that is cripsy but this is really soft.

Price wise, it is consider quite affordable given the portions that they serve, crowd wise, it can be quite quiet so people, if you guys want to get together for a chat, this is a nice place.
But waiting time wise, i guess, you gotta be bit more patient as they cook upon ordering so please be prepared :) Staff there are friendly too!
Definitely worth a try! Do pop by when you have a chance :)
