September refresh
T he ninth month is famous for ushering in the new year of style and beauty — fresh collections come out, trends are visually announced, and sartorial changes are made. In our case, it’s the perfect time to start making changes of our own; whether it’s a new choice of shoe or an entire new makeup regimen. Style and beauty resolutions are great because they can be superficial, lowcommitment but yield major results. (This is totally why most of us get haircuts when we’re going through something weird in our lives. That chop-chop feeling is so cathartic.) So if you’re in need of some change, why not start here? Here we present: the solutions to your September resolutions. Resolution No. 1: Getting pampered shouldn’t take time — I want a one-stop place to look good. We’ve always loved how our moms and
titas have their suki places to get their beauty maintenance done — there’s always that one place for their hair, nails and regular dose of chikahan. With our beauty regimens expanding more than ever before, it’s impossible to have the same faves all in one place. In the beauty and wellness section of Robinson’s Galleria, you won’t need to go far to keep your hair, nails and brows in check. Might we suggest this little scavenger hunt: get your haircut and hair treatments and Vivere Salon, which is right across from Hey Sugar, a waxing place that can do either cold wax or hot wax treatments. (We recommend hot waxing.) A few steps takes you to Ooh La Lash, where you can either get eyelash extensions, brow threading, or even an eyelash perm. (The perm takes awhile, so we suggest you prepare your earphones and a long playlist.) Finish it all off with a luxurious mani-pedi at Nailaholics, which we guarantee will put you to sleep, in the best possible way.
