We ate at KFC after that.
Snack plate as usual! Yum yum!
After my brother went for his Friday prayer, we went to Amcorp Mall because I have facial appointment with Assata.
The facial was brilliant. The beautician was friendly and nice. Instead of 2 hours, it became 3 hours. The facial was very thorough with strong massage. I was impressed. After finished, she introduced me to a range of Assata products that she suggested I should purchase to further improve my skin condition.
At first I didn't want to buy it but because the 1st treatment was so great I was like why not? So for RM1500, paid by installment for 12 months *sigh*, I bought some of their products and 3 x pore minimising treatments.
I used these products for 2 weeks day and night as recommended. It was hard labour for me hehehe using them day and night, coming from someone who usually cleanse her face in the morning only. Well, to be honest, I did not see that much of improvements.
My skin became drier and drier especially around the nose where it is heavily applied to remove clogged pores and reduce pore size. I did not see any improvements in my pore size or my skin condition other than drier skin.It irked me so much that the skin was so dry that I have to use a lot of moisturiser to reduce the dryness, which kinda defeats the purpose actually. If I used a lot of moisturiser, then my skin will get oilier but if I don't, then my skin will get flakey and dry, which I absolutely loath.
Even worse, I also had break outs, not acne, but this white pimple things which is absolutely disgusting. I can tahan/bear with it if it's normal acne/red pimple, but white pimples are absolutely gross on my face.
So I sort of half regret that I succumbed and bought these products when it's not working or not suitable for my skin TT___TT I could have saved a lot of money if I didn't buy these stuffs and could have bought other stuffs that I've been dreaming to like a new wardrobe and book shelves and treadmill...
I even regretted this after my 2nd trip to Assata. This time it's not the same beautician. My opinions: Her work is mediocre. Her massage wasn't powerful. I could not see any difference before and after the facial compared to my very 1st trip. Is it because I have paid for the RM1500 so now you can treat me half-arsed? Maybe because it's a different beautician... *sigh*
Now that I've learned my lesson, I'm just gonna go back to the normal RM30 per facial treatment per month. At least they don't try to sell me products. I mean I don't mind an expensive facial treatment or even super expensive products if it actually works. It pissed me off if they are expensive and it didn't work =___= Isn't there any skin care centre where I can just go and get my face pampered without saleswoman trying to make me buy their stuffs??? *sigh*

Around 730PM, we went to IKEA at Damansara Utama. Gosh what a heavy traffic it was that night. It's a given la kot because people got back from work etc since it was Friday after all.
We arrived around 8.30PM and straight went to the diner place where they sold the famous Swedish Meatballs. As we were hungry like hell, we bought a lot of foods other than the Swedish Meatballs.
I bought this but it didn't taste very nice. The taste was quite bland if I must say.
I only bought 5 meatballs. It really lives up to its review. Very tasty, nothing like I've eaten before. <3 Worth the money and it's not that bloody expensive either.
Then we went around IKEA because I wanna buy a new wardrobe and book shelves. I registered for IKEA credit card because I figured if I wanted to buy furniture from IKEA, I need to pay by installments. *broke* I know that a lot of people don't recommend buying furniture from IKEA, but oh well, the other furniture outlet is too expensive for my budget :( It's not like I suke2 mau beli from IKEA...
