$55/session for any facial is not ex..

[sunkisstiffy]

OrangeGina891 & theblacktofu: yep, $55/session is not expensive, the one i was introduced was expensive~ $2288 or somewhere there, for 10 or 12 sessions. but that's for IPL and facials.

i shall keep alook out for touche's normal facial package, my current one with another beautician is kinda expensive, around $70/session despite the fact i'm taking a package fo 10 sessions. but her massage on my face is really good and long duration.

i feel that as long as the facial is gd, & it improves our facial conditions, how much $ we pay is worth it.

I tried the sk2 facial recently with their $85 trial promotion and i truly enjoyed the experience. They did a really good job with my skin and i must say they are very professional. I am planning my next facial end of this month and i am interested to try their senzational facial. The price is indeed on the higher side but considering it is sk2, i guess it is to be expected. For me, for as long as i feel the result is there, i dont mind paying premium for quality. So far, I am impressed so will see if they keep up to the standard.

what are the facial steps/ process like in sk2?? any use of equipments / extractions? Do they hardsell?

i like Touche's massage... the lady state that the massage detox my body and face and after that facial. after that i have pimples on my shoulder( till the location they massage). quite amaze by that. but to spent $55 to enjoy their massage is a bit sinful..

$55 for a session is not consider expensive. I have bought even more expensive package and its so not worth it at all. Makes my blood boils whenever i think of it. The consultants just want to push us to sign up more package so that they can hit their target. I always have phobia stepping into facial parlour to treat my skin.

care to share which facial parlours are those? I'm sure all of us would wanna avoid them too

[theblacktofu]

but if the quality of service is good & you're happy with the therapist , its worth it isn't it?

the steps are quite typical except i find it more elaborate than other places i have tried. They do double cleansing and use some sort of machine with vibration to remove dirts. If i remember right, it has eyebrow trimming, extractions which is quite painless , face massage, mask with ultrasound... The bed is also very comfortable and no hard sell. I find it good as my skin feels better after a few sessions. They also have machines treatment for lifting. If you try, I highly recommend the eye treatment.

I've never try IPL, so cant compare...i had 3 sessions of I2PL, but cant tell any difference.
their normal facial should be around $58, it is all depends what type of facial. you can try the promo for 1st trial, not too sure how much, if i'm not wrong, should be $38 !

=( I just had my facial ytd @ Fresver (Hougang Bus Interchange branch). Got face rash today! The night before, I applied Neutrogena pimple cream. Then it got somewhat itchy ytd. Afte the facial, it got worst! It's so itchy now. Dont know whether it's the product they used. I guess my skin's sensitive.

Anyway, the staff were HARD SELLING. REALLY REALLY BADLY. At first, my newly signed package was only $138 for 6 sessions. I ended up spending $250++ for the 6 sessions plus 1-time ampoule and cold treatment(I like this). Dont ever go for extraction at Fresver. They squeeze the hell outta u using fingers tissue paper! ):

Any idea if ampoule or cold treatment can cause rashes? I'm extremely worried. It looks really bad.

[missixty]

frankly, i think rashes could be due to either allergy/ sensitive to the products used or simply due to certain hygiene of their sponges, towels, etc..
