Tomato Face-d

The tomato face-d girl has arrived in town!! 0.0
Bwahaha. So funny. Actually its the opposite of that. The reason for being tomato-face-d was because yesterday my mum took my sis and i for some facial appointment... well actually it was Steff who wanted it so my mum booked me in too. Well, i wouldnt say i looked forward to it because i'd been through it before and i knew what was awaiting me and NO facial treatment doesnt mean u just sit back and relax. At least, it was mostly trauma for me.

Ok, ok maybe not ALL that traumatic. Steff nvr went through it before so she was planning to sleep during the facial. i was hesitant all the way while in the car. Hey she wasnt the one going for major extracting! At least that was what the lady called it, extracting.

The procedure was actually pretty relaxing, as i might put it... u know, after the hot steam dan lain-lain... but then came the extracting. One word ti describe it: OUCH. Man did it HURT LIKE CRAZY!! They had to squeeze out all the whiteheads and blackheads and being a typical teenager i cant help having lots of pimples can i??!! Then the lady came in and said that my skin was "extremely congested" and tht i had to bear with a "little bit" of pain. My foot la, a little bit of pain. Her fingers were all over my forehead and then scaled down to the side hairlines where she spent ages and then to my cheeks which hurt the most. When she was done she said that i had to have this follow-up extraction becos my skin was too congested and they couldnt remove all of it and tht some pimples were extremely stubborn.ZZZzzz.

Me. Right after the facial thingy. Face as red as a tomato. =.=

After a whole lot of pain and suffering, they showed me a mirror to let me see all the damage they'd done. Haha. i say DAMAGE becos i had a heart attack seeing this red swollen face with scarlet patches everywhere. Heck did i look a horror. i had to re-wire my brain in order to tell myself tht it was me in the mirror.


It wasnt as red when i was done. You didnt see the beginning.

But then after that everything went fine. They gave this massage and scrub and mask to somewhat "relax" the skin after all the extraction it must've been stressful. Although how much my skin could take i wasnt too sure.

This mirror was fun. i could fix it at any angle and take pics of diffrent ppl. Or objects. :D


This lady was the one who kept yapping. She yapped and yapped and yet her mouth could nvr dry out. Trust businesswomen. She was trying to get my mum to but all these products for my skin and my sis's. She was the same lady who yapped at me for being active and perspiring too much and therefore triggering so much pimples.

i tell you! What does she take us for? Do u hv any idea how much it all cost???

Thank goodness my mum has common sense. We ended up just purchasing the usual cleanser and moisturizer. .. and after all the talk the same lady started yapping abt my dehydrated skin that was so dry and my sis' oily skin and so on... hey we cant help loving swimming ok?? And i nvr get sunburnt. And i still put on cream and moisturizer... but if its dry then i suppose i cant help it.

And so tht is the story of how i was tomato-face-d. I was too lazy to blog on Friday and i'm still debating whether to hv this follow-up treatment. Fortunately, thanks the other treatments now my face is no longer a tomato.Though if i end up with permanent scars i'll sue them grrr. Period. i'm not too ecstatic abt having to be tomato-face-d again in 2 weeks time, nor anytime soon.
