Flawless Day! A Journal on my Experience and A Review


VISIT: August 12, 2012
FLAWLESS BRANCH: SM City San Lazaro


A week before my birthday, we all agreed to use the Flawless GCs I won from Ms. Martha.


It was a Sunday and I was a bit worried as we didn't set an appointment. Good thing, they accept walk-in patients and although the wait was kinda long, it was, truly a wonderful experience.


We redeemed our GC in Flawless SM San Lazaro, the nearest mall in our area. I shared it with my sister-in-law and my brother-in-law's girlfriend.


The clinic was pretty chic. The interiors were dimly lit, just like the usual spas. I also love the touch of pink in their clinic. After all, it is the color of Flawless! =D


The staff was accommodating; a lot of people come in and out of their posh clinic to inquire and set appointments but they stay nice and cool. =)

While waiting for our turn, I took some photos of us... =D

I wore my Firmoo glasses on that day. I knew that when I go out of Flawless, it would be obvious that I had a facial. Teehee!!! Anyway, for my review on the Firmoo glasses, click here. =)




My sisters-in-law. Oh! I was also wearing the same blouse that day. I told you, my sister-in-law and I buy the same kind of clothes sometimes. =D

On that day, she decided to wear her blouse just for fun. We looked like twins that day! Hahaha!!!

 My favorite selca... this is officially my FOTD that day. =D

 Look at my little sister-in-law... She's so cute! We were cracking up while she sits and "reads" the magazine. As if she could actually read what she sees from the magazine! Hahaha!!!

 Oh! Look at that cute pout!!! =D

 Hihihi... Cute... She imitates her elder sister!

 The little one wanders around reception of the clinic and the staff doesn't mind! They actually found her cute, especially with her pink blouse. She could pass as a little representative of Flawless! Hahaha!!!


One of their staff members asked us about the kind of facial that we'll have. Since it was our first time at Flawless, we asked her about what kind of treatment should we get. She assisted us nicely and advised my sister-in-law to have an Oil-Control Facial, while me and my brother-in-law's girlfriend was advised to have an Acne Control Facial, which, I was really planning to have since my skin had been very prone to acne lately.


Long wait is over. My name was called and I was asked to come inside. A very nice Attendant named Arianne accommodated me. I was wearing minimal makeup that day and on that day, I wore the Martha-inspired look on that day for the second time. I am so loving that look because it makes you look polished without having to pile tons of product on the face. I've been to church before heading to Flawless -  the reason why I was wearing makeup. =D


Ms. Arriane was very nice. In fact, she was very careful and her hands work like magic. She would prompt me about the things she'll do to my face, unlike other attendants, they would just go about their business of pricking your face.


I told her that I still have makeup on and I asked where can I wash off my makeup. She smiled her sweetest smile and told me to lie down and she'll do it for me. =)


Just like what I said earlier, it's so good that she tells me what she's about to do to me. =)


I wasn't able to take snapshots of the first few steps of the facial treatment as my hands were covered in a warm and relaxing wrap.

Here I am, face all red and swollen after extracting out a lot of blackheads and whiteheads. Eeeek!!! >__<
Tiis ganda mode! Hahaha!!!

Mask time!!! ^__^

I love their mask. It feels cool and refreshing.



I think the session lasted us about an hour and a half. For me, it was worth the time lying down the facial bed. It was sure relaxing and I love the fact that I was finally able to get my face cleaned thoroughly after some time. ^__^


Now, let me share my thoughts about my Flawless experience... =)



What I love about it...
  • I love that the attendants and staff are friendly and accommodating. They are so nice and cool to customers although there are some customers that are impatient. 
  • The line up goes first come first served. When we came to the clinic, I was nervous about being rejected as we didn't set an appointment. It was a spur of the moment treat! Surprisingly, they smiled at me and assured us that it's okay, however, we had to wait for our turn, which, is just fine with me. =D
  • My attendant was so nice. She was not pushy about me getting a more advanced facial. =)
  • All of the attendants showed professionalism. They worked well even though there were a lot of patrons that day.
  • I love that the receptionist was able to assist us in helping pick the best facial treatment based on our needs.
  • The ambiance is truly chic and relaxing! =)
  • The treatment itself is affordable! All of their treatments are actually affordable!!! I thought that treatments and procedures cost expensive at Flawless, since it is well-known plus they have really popular endorsers like Judy Ann Santos, Lorna Tolentino, Richard Guitierrez and my favorite, Mother Divine Lee. =D


What I don't love about it...
  •  None!!! I love everything FLAWLESSly!!! =D

Whom would I recommend this to?
I definitely recommend the services offered by the Flawless Clinic. As for the Acne Control Treatment that I tried, I give it a two thumbs up! It's best for gals and gents that has acne problems. Do check out Flawless for their awesome services! ^__^ 


Rating:



5 out of 5
FLAWLESS! =D


Tips:
  • It is best to go to the clinic makeup free.  It would save you and your attendant the hassle of removing it. =)
  • It's ALWAYS best to set an appointment. It saves time and you won't have to wait for a long time, especially during weekends. =)
  • Be sure to share the delight of R&R with a loved one! =D


I went home happily although my face was a bit swollen. It was because the gunk (blackheads and whiteheads) were deeply seated underneath my skin. Despite of that, I felt my skin was clean and purified. Hehehe. I wondered, how on Earth I got those dirt? I just stay home, rarely puts on makeup and go out once in a while. The answer? It's my imbalanced hormones! I really should care more for my skin since I became acne prone (due to PCOS). 


Here are my photos before bedtime, with the eye makeup removed (using baby wipes), of course! 



Some of the redness and swollenness has subsided already.

I noticed that most of the stuff sprout on my left cheek. I wonder why...





And we also got sold by the affordable skin care kit they offered us. I'll post a review on these soon! =)

Just a thought... I noticed that my sister-in-law's attendant offered her the RG skin care kit. I wonder why... RG stands for their "Real Gentleman" services, obviously offered to male clients.



Oh well! The next post will be a review on Flawless' RG Skin Care Kit.


If I had only known that they offer affordable services, I should've went there for my pre-wedding facial last year. Imagine, relaxing, professional service which includes the mask and hand and back massage all for only P490! That's super affordable and "sulit" as compared to the facial center that I used to patronize. I must say, I am now a Flawless convert! =D

Im going to visit to visit sm san lzaro later,i too have pcos and i hate hormonal acne nagpaki ka na ba sakanila?inextract kasi ni dr estoque cystic acne ko 4 pa yun shet sakit....saka niya ininject scaar ang iniiwasan ko kaya ako nag ki feeling ko magscar siya

Angel said...

Hi sis! Yeah, I read your blog post about your hormonal acne.

I haven't tried KI yet... I was planning to, pero di naman sinuggest nung attendant ko. I did some research on it, and I found out na yung iba, nagkaka-dent sa skin, sa area ng ininjection. Others would experience that it returns to normal after some time, pero yung iba, need nila magpa-filler para bumalik yung normal state ng skin.

I guess I have to go back to using pills to avoid these painful acne.

Thanks for visiting! ^__^
