as a staff of a skincare company, i do get the perks - 30% off products, 40% off treatments. really, it's quite attractive, especially when the stuffs are really expensive. ever since Joyce Lim, i don't recall splurging that much on skincare. when i thought Joyce Lim was already a killer for my pocket, i took my virgin step out of the doctor's regime and tried on my own company's products. honestly, if i don't witness how good the products would be, i couldn't convince the thousands of potential customers out there.
so yup, i took my 1st step. i decided to drop Joyce Lim is because her products no longer works for me. yes, my face was alot better than it was 3 to 4 years ago. however, i couldn't continue using her products as my skin is slowly aging and she's not tweaking my regime. furthermore, my eczema tends to break out during hormonal changes and she's not intending to do anything about it. to her, it's a skin condition that "couldn't be cured". oh well...
i finally had my consultation and bought more than $600 worth of products. thank God for the 30% which the bill came down to $400+. Mei was with me, and she too, easily convinced to tweak her regime advised by the consultants. at least for her skin, she doesn't have much of a problem. i have some serious case of 'congestion', and i need more than the usual basic home care products to help. sigh.... yup, all for the sake of healthier looking skin. i guess i really had enough seeing other people's flawless skins and mine's like so problematic. yup, i'm somewhat anticipating the results in a few month's time!
as for work, the pace slowed down a great deal. that's coz' all PR and copywriting materials are done and the work is chucked at my designer's. now i'm only waiting for proof-reading, and also going through the intricate details of all the artwork produced. basically i'm going to work now just to handle some production stuff - cutting papers. hahahaha... as bizarre as that sounds, it's true! like they told me, enjoy it while i can, till the next tidal wave of work comes again.
