Discover the Power of 24K Gold Senses Facial Treatment at Blue Water Day Spa

Oh my! Just when you thought a facial couldn’t be any more of a luxury, Blue water Day Spa has launched the 24K Gold Senses Facial Treatment to usher in the Prosperous Chinese New Year!

So when I was invited to sample a 24k gold facial at the Blue Water Day Spa, I went out on a whim and tried it.

BlueWater Day Spa is a haven for beauty and wellness in the Philippines. They offer a wide array of world-class pampering services ranging from Body Massages, Facial Treatments, Face & Body Machine Treatments, Hand and Foot Services and Waxing Treatments. There, you can step into a world of pure relaxation. I was in awe when I saw their spa theater. I can stay there for weeks, or maybe months or even years. :)

The spa theater is the place where movies, massage and manicures meet.

We were watching Real Steel while having a relaxing foot massage. Just thinking of how comfy and relaxing that lazy boy leather-seat sofa was, makes me want to come back already. It's also a great place for sparties(spa parties), baby showers, bridal showers, and a lot more.

When we say “gold,” we usually think of gold jewelry as the only way to glitter and make heads turn. The good news is, you can now improve your skin and bring out your beauty with the help of the 24K Facial Treatment from BlueWater Day Spa!

Yesterday, I discovered Cleopatra's secret to beautiful skin and unveiled the power of GOLD! Historians believed that something so rare and beautiful must possess healing properties, which is why gold was taken both internally and externally.

This anti-aging benefits of gold dates back 5000 years to the time of Cleopatra who was believed to maintain her youthful beauty by sleeping in a gold face mask each night to keep her skin youthful, looking firmed, toned, supple with a healthy glow.

The benefits of this treatment are as follows: delays the natural signs of aging - such as minimizing fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin; minimizing pores; rejuvenates the surface layer of skin by accelerating cell renewal; reverse oxidation damage; enhances skin’s elasticity; increases blood circulation giving your skin luminous radiance; facilitates the removal of toxins and waste and assists in lymphatic drainage; and slows down melanin production for prevention of dark spots on skin.

My prep time 

The 24K Gold facial started off with deep cleansing of my face to prep the skin. After that, it is followed by the usual facial treatment which includes facial massage, exfoliation, a quick steam, pricking, the works.

Now meet Margie, the therapist. She applied a thick layer of 24K Active Gold Powder Mask to my face. It was thick but as light as a feather.

NO! I wasn NOT smiling.. AT ALL! weh?! I tried though! :) Thanks Manette for this pic.

But it is important that you keep still so your mask won't create lines and small bumps in between.

:)

So yeah, bawal ngumiti ha, and that moment of stillness put me into a deep state of relaxation and utter bliss.

The feeling was so good during and after the application because the mask was real cold and comforting all throughout. It's like the cucumber treatment I put on my eyes to lighten up my eyebags.

They said I was shining and glowing, looking luminous... literally! Very Cleopatra lang ang peg. :)

The mask stayed on my face for 20 minutes, until the mask turned from gold to matte. See? O.O

Finally, when it was all set and completely dry already, Margie took the mask from my face and it was a perfect mold that I even asked if I can take it home with me. For sangla purposes maybe? LOL

The facial concluded with the application of toner for deep moisturizing and protection. I even had a few flakes of gold sparkling and glittering around my face and hairline after having my face delicately garnished in 24k gold.

Freshness lang! No makeup look!

After the 24k gold facial treatment, I felt so bling bling. I'm not a big fan of gold, but after this treatment, I had a newfound respect for gold. Seriously, it's all a girl ever needs!

The 24k Gold facial treatment usually takes almost an hour and you can have this treatment twice a month.

Also, please note these usual post-facial Dont's and No-nos:

Do not expose your face directly to the sun for the next 3 days after treatment. Stay out of the freakin sun! Unless it's summer of course.. I love summer. LOL
Do not wash your face using hot water. Cold and lukewarm water will do.
Do not visit the steam room or sauna. More intense heat is just going to strip off your just paid-for golden glow.
Do not wash your face after facial or better yet, don't freaking touch your face. You can do that after 12 hours or so.
Do not use retinoids after application. Retinoids or products with Retin A is a recipe for redness and your face will just look like a really red tomato if you apply after treatment.
Do not apply makeup. Okay, fine you can apply face powder but why not go Au naturel. Au stands for gold right? Remember, ladies, you can be beautiful even without makeup. Natural beauty it is! Oh and wearing makeup everyday is not cute! Alamoyan.

Actually, I have inadvertently done some of the Don'ts here because I tend to forget A LOT! So if ever I miss something, let me know. Remember, ignorance is not spa bliss.

And if you ask me if it is worth the price? Uhmm.. absolutely yes! They also have 50% discount this month and THAT is a golden opportunity YOU shouldn't miss! The original price for the 24k gold facial is PhP2000 and now with their 50% discount, they slashed it off to 1 freaking thousand! Loved it! :D For the chin and neck area, it's PhP1500 per area. They said if there's a part of a face that is first honorable mention and best in sagging, that would be the chin, and the neck a close second. Believe it or not, they are the first to show the signs of aging because they have fewer oil glands than the rest of your body, yet most of us ignore them. So would I try it again? Heck yeah, I would!

Here's my friend Manette, trying out the chin-neck 24k gold treatment. What a sweet treat for the birthday girl! :)
Happy Birthday!!!
