I was recently introduced to a new facial place located in the heart of Orchard Road, at Cuppage Plaza. It is about 3 minutes away from Somerset MRT.

FaceWork Aesthetic is managed by Ms Eileen Seah a beauty professional with over 20 years of experience. At FaceWork Aesthetic, you can expect top grade materials and top notch services.

Other than facials, FaceWork Aesthetic also has eyebrow embroidery, lash extension, slimming, waxing and nail services.

The beauty salon is so huge, looking a little dark from the outside with a lovely hanging chandelier. It was a real pity that I was not given a proper tour of the place. I wasn't even aware that they have so many services hidden under one roof. I feel that every new customer should be given a proper tour of the place.



Look at the wall of accolades and you know you are in good hands.



You are required to fill up a facial consultation form which states your health issues and skin concerns before being led into the consultation room to get your face checked.


Caring Tip: Do point out to the consultant if you have any facial concerns or if you have sensitive/eczema skin as not all facials are suitable for all skin types.

About FaceWork Aesthetic Minute Skin Booster Therapy:
♛Minute Skin Booster Therapy is derived from Microneedle Therapy System (MTS) to achieve optimal skin hydration. 

♛This is administered with a high technology device designed to infuse 100% pure hyaluronic acid into the epidermis. 

♛Hyaluronic acid is the most powerful hydrating and moisturizing ingredient in the market today as it can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water.




My personal experience:
During the process of administering the hyaluronic acid, what I experienced was rather pleasant and not painful at all. The beautician constantly checks with me if I had any discomfort and explained that the forehead areas will be a little bumpy as it is more bony compared to the other parts of my face.



You can also be rest assured as a new set of microneedles are used for every individual customer so there are no hygiene issues.

The beautician is very professional, friendly and chatty. She is also knowledgeable and generous in sharing beauty tips with me like how I should clean my make-up applicators regularly and avoid taking certain foods after a pimple extraction.

She would also explain to me about what she would be doing to my face as we go along and I felt really at ease leaving my face in her good hands.

Facial Review & Ratings:



Ambience Rating: ★★★☆☆
The facial rooms were spacious but seems a little cramp with equipment placed at one side. The experience was was comfortable regardless.
 
Service: ★★★★☆
Professional beautician, very knowledgeable, friendly with plenty of experience to share. Skillful with every move, detailed and thoughtful.

Facial Effectiveness: ★★☆☆☆
The skin booster feels comfortable when administered and my face was glowing and brightened immediately after the facial. However, few hours after my facial, my skin starts to turn red, peeled and my skin became dry and flaky. This could be due to my eczema flaring up after the sudden moisture boost. Every skin is different so be very careful about what is done on your face.

*Eileen was very thoughtful about what happened and offered me a soothing mask after she learns of my face condition, unfortunately i had taken ill so i would be postponing my session. My face is now slowly recovering with my regular spamming of moisturizers, so you guys.. don't worry so much okay?

Location: ★★★★☆
Within 3 minutes walking distance from the Somerset MRT Station.


***
As we grow older, our skin moisture decrease significantly, the skin loses its elasticity and expose the signs of aging on the skin. Hyaluronic acid plays a critical role in skin health with its unique ability to hold in moisture (1000 ml of water per gram of hyaluronic acid). It can adjust its moisture absorption rate based on the humidity which is relative to the season and the climate."
