NOT even kidding, but I have seriously just experience my first facial with actual results, which was both instant and continuous.
KAYA Skin Clinic, located in the Town Center in Jumierah, is a no-messes, no-fusses skin clinic. I heard several women discussing their next facial (and botox! eeek! apparently everyone is doing it these days!) and there was a friendly atmosphere all round
I had little idea when I was in for, all I know was that I was having the Kaya Glow Facial. Sounded straight forward enough. I was expecting an hour of calming music and some facial rubbing action, but the facial-dude didnt even ask me to take off my shoes when I got into the treatment room, which I thought was a bit weird as I was all ready to undress and get into a towel and get all relaxed.
Skin-expert-dude was quick to explain that I was having some crystal-scratching action done, which was apparently going to be good for my wrinkles (which I was not aware I had, but I decided to go with it). It got rather clinical and he did a little skin test on my arm, which got me all excited (a real treatment that had potential dangers... cool!).
My arm was fine and the treatment got started. I lay down and enjoyed the sucking/scratching experience, which was tickling all over my neck but relaxing at the same time. After this, which took about 15mins, the skin-dude, who really was extremely knowledgeable, explained that he was going to put some kind of awesome mask on me. I don't know what happened after this, but it was akin to an The mask which was on for all of 15mins had me in and out of deep deep sleep. I woke up rather confused and feeling a bit weird.
Instructed not to put any makeup on my face, I left feeling relaxed and awesome. My skin was glowing! As if I'd put any make up on! My skin had never looked better, it was smooth and fresh looking; the effects still continue on a week later, and I will be booking in for another session this week for sure before I leave for NYC! Each session is only 350aed and it is suggested you have 4 sessions for full effect. It is sooo worth it!

lost in time,space, meaing...ok, well, just Indai
so, bored with my new obsession: the L Word, which I've been watchin when I get home from the factory, as its late, I know no one here, and my attempts to find a bar have been unsuccessful.... until this point, that ia.
Finishing up a little earlier yesterday after trying to find buttons (which proved a little harder then planned. The dude from the factory, who was lovely, clearly did
not enjoy showing strange-lady-with-weird-haircut round on his only day off. but he was so helpful and did his best to make sure i didnt get ripped off. with only 2 button shops where we in this awesome market, which I should have stayed at for longer on my own...but anyway, thats another issue, the button-shopping trip turned into buy gifts for mama, sister and mama's best friend, oh and did i mention me?? But I found some random shit, which you will see on the models that I hurl down the runway, ok not hurl.. but I'll have them doing something!
So, I finished up early, and got back to the hotel, and took a cab to some area where I knew I could get a massage, which I knew was near some bars (i am smarter then i look. well, thats how i was feeling.. then) ... I found a pub, and had a couple of cocktails to myself, and felt a little drunk, and finally like I was in a different country. When trying to ask someone for directions, he actually asked me if I "spoke English?"
"Erm..yeah, I'm speaking it" (I didnt go into the fact that I only speak English.
"Then how come I don't understand you?"
Well, thats one fuckin compliment! The only language, which I feel I have mastered pretty well, is completely useless to me! And dont get me started on my attemps to learn Hindi. I know I am not going to do well with those learning language CDs. Its not cos I am being hard on my self! I know I will learn nothin...cos I lost the freakin CD already! Dang.. thats what I could have been doing in my time off, learning Hindi, but oh know, I am speandin my time off from the factory watchin hot chicks get it on...hey, that doesnt sound so bad.
Anywayz, the collection is lookin cute.. I think there r a couple of pieces people might actually wear. which is pretty good out of 30pcs! but I dont want to give anything away at this point!
Oh so anyway, found a bar, and when ready to go home, I realized I had NO IDEA where the hotel was.. I called the one guy I know here, who pretty much said 'figure it out yourself' and hung up on me. He said he didnt know where the hotel was, even though I am pretty sure its right near his house. Ok, oh well, its India, getting lost is part of the experience (is that what people mean about "finding themselves"..once they get back to the hotel?)
But 2 lovely guys next to me helped me, I didnt even think it was suspicious that he wanted my full name and room number when he was trying to find my hotel. It only occurred to me when he called me that night to see if I was ok. So Mr. one-of-the-"lovely guys next to me" turned into "hi-you-ok-i'm-a-potential-murderer". and just like in Shaune of the Dead, i bolted the door and locked it (if you've seen it, you might know what am talking about, ..they way they film it? ya know??). and slept in preperation for him to come in and say "i just wanted to check you were ok??" but i am awake, and writing this down in case he does come, and you guys can tell the cops who it was.
got a button hunting day today, and actually feel better then i did last night, as I had hangover straight away from my mojito (who drinks that in India??? oh, that'll be me.)
I hope this has been somewhat amusing, or at least worth your time procrastinating..
