Massage, the message
Maybe I was inspired by the first of its kind 'healing hands' massage I enjoyed recently at Yakson Singapore.
Or maybe I'm moved to finally do something after being mindlessly bombarded by hoards of anti-aging advertisements popping up everywhere every time I switch on my phone or computer. Or maybe, just maybe... it's the fact that I'm officially 40-something.
I feel now more so than ever the nagging need to hold on to my youthful good looks.
But how?
Massage, seems to be the message I'm getting. I find the idea of manually manipulating the muscles to promote circulation and improve overall health simply fascinating!
Plus it's au naturel!
Not only does massage facilitate the efficient elimination of wastes through our lymph, it also aids in the absorption of nutrients.
Just imagine how a quick three-minute facial massage, allows for the goodness of geranium essential oil combined with sweet almond oil, jojoba oil and vitamin E to enter your bloodstream directly through your skin.
While browsing the myriad massage oil concoctions, geranium was instinctively and intuitively chosen for its cytophylactic properties - which means it prevents muscles and skin from sagging by actively promoting the regeneration of new cells, optimising cell metabolism.
I learnt that only later, retrospectively, after I looked up "health benefits of geranium essential oil" on my home computer and it blew my mind!
Sometimes, we can't explain why we choose what we choose, we just have to trust that we made the best decision. And apparently, I did! LOL!
Anyway, coming back to the topic at hand, massage is the message and I intend to keep at it for as long as I can.
Will I be able to eventually look younger for longer... only time will tell, winks!
Love,

Yakson Singapore
![]() |
| With Yakson's founder Mr Lee Byung-Chul |
I'll be emceeing at the Grand Opening of Yakson Singapore in a week's time. To make sure that I'm well able to accurately describe the Golki Therapy to the beauty bloggers and guests of the K-beauty house, I'm lying here on one of their beds, waiting for Jessica, my personal professional therapist, to apply her "healing hands" on me... I can't wait!
I mean, who doesn't want a slimmer, smaller face right?
With no downtime, no surgery, no painful injections nor artificial inserts, Jessica will (with her bare hands) attempt to stretch my facial skin, muscles, sinews, tissues, veins, and bones! Yes, bones!
Gulp! (But still, you know I'm always game to try to new things...winks!)
When she noticed that I had dry skin, she intuitively gave me the most invigorating and energising facial massage ever! I actually felt years younger after that...
Then the real massage began...
The Original Golki Therapy massage from Korea is nothing like I've ever experienced in my entire existence! The therapist was very skilled, and extremely experienced! A native Korean who'd spent many months - before coming over - rigorously perfecting the art of manually stimulating living bones. It was only her fourth day in Singapore but she spoke enough English to carry a very decent and pleasant conversation with me.
I can't even begin to describe how the session went (you have to try it to know!)

All I can say is...after about 90mins, when Jessica suggested that I cradle my face with my palms...
Omigosh!!! My face really did feel different! I swear!
How do I know? Am I sure?
You see, I have an almost perfect heart-shaped face with super wide cheekbones. I don't even have to touch them to know they're there! LOL! They restrict and obstruct my expensive eyewear ever so often, especially so when I smile... so yup! Surely, I could tell the difference...
My face was rounder somewhat and I didn't look as fierce as I did before. It was like the rough edges were all smoothened out, if that makes sense.
I looked kinder, definitely!
A quick chat with the manager Nicole afterwards revealed that new customers would have to wait up to two months before they can start on their package! They are wildly popular! She also recommended at least one to two sessions per week to see lasting results - a smaller face is guaranteed after just 20 sessions!
So if you do decide to take that bold step and try this out, remember to have a small bite before heading over cuz it's best you don't eat anything two hours after - same principle as with not eating anything right after a rigorous exercise regime for fear of gaining too much weight too fast.

Mrs Singapore Universe 2016
Right before I was crowned Mrs Singapore Universe 2016 on 7 May, I was asked…
What are the best morals and values a parent could share with their children and why?
My answer was:- Honour, Integrity and Resilience
Honour, because I think it’s important to accord basic human dignity to every individual no matter the background.
Integrity, because I think every person should be congruent – he must be the same person on stage and off, he must treat his parents the same way he does his friends and colleagues.
Resilience, because in this life you will have trouble. That’s why it’s so important to get back up again each time you fall. A good person can fall seven times and get back up again. And to me, a successful person is just simply one who never, ever… ever gives up!
Thank you!
