Neogence Ace Revitalizing and Brightening Series

We all know that dry skin is one the many factors that can cause premature aging and oily skin. And I've always believe that hydrating skin and revitalizing skin works hand in hand to help prevent or delay aging.

Well, believe it or not i use to have a ridiculous night skincare ritual that consist of products that helps with anti aging, hydrating and repairing of the skin. But i wasn't disciple enough to continue that routine when work started to get really buzy. So i turned to only applying a hydrating serum every night before i hit the sack and the hydrating serum is the only "comfort" my skin could get at night as during the day, as my new work station is right under a strong air conditioner that is causing me dry skin.

You may think that my skin is peeling and flaking as i've said that i have dry skin but that was not the case. The dryness actually caused my skin to produce more oil causing my skin to look really oily. And the only thing i could though of is to hydrate my skin at night and apply products helps with shine control in the day as  some hydrating products can be seriously sticky and i do not like that "i have too much product on my face" feeling during the day.

But that did not stop the problem, at the end of the day, my skin feels irritated due to the tightness and itchness, and my face looked really dull and oily. However my skin condition started to change after using the Neogance Ace Revitalizing and Brightening series.

 
The Neogence Ace Series targeting at people with oily and combination skin. Clinical studies done by Neogence has showed that oily skin has poor absorption issues due to it's slow metabolism the causes irregular and disorganized in the epidermal cell which then leads to excess sebum causing old and dead cells to remind on the skin surface. 

The Ace Series is formulated with "patent Liposome Conduction technology" which allows 300% increase in absorption through the use of the structure of a special double Phospholipid Liposome and Vitamin A that works on the deep, underlayers of the skin to renew, restructure and metabolize old skin cells to improve absorption.


Targeting at Restructure and Renewing of the skin, Neogence's Ace Series helps with moisturizing, whitening, anti aging, moisture retaining of the skin. An All round formula that is totally the life savior of the lazy warrior in the quest for perfect skin.

First, a little about the brand, Neogence.

Neogence is a brand backed by it's pool of professionals in dermatology, medicine and bio medical, dedicating and sharing each of their expertise in developing skincare products that are suitable and special for Asia's climate and Asian skin. 

The brand beliefs in developing products that are "High Concentrate", "High Purity", " Easy Absorbability", "High Effect" and "Low Sensitivity".

It also beliefs in environment conservation and expresses their beliefs by using recyclable materials and non animal experiments. 


The Ace Revitalizing series consist of 6 products. Starting from the Lotion, Eye serum, Whitening serum, Hydrating fluid, Gel base and Mask.


Let's go through each product:

1st, The Ace Intensive Whitening Lotion.


The first step in the Ace series regime is the Neogence Ace Intensive Whitening Lotion. It helps to renew, brighten and prevent aging with Vitamin A, C and E. And uses Ellagicacid and chamomile to control melanin processes and brightening skin tone. The lotion also helps to hydrate and condition skin for more effective absorption of active ingredients.

2nd step, Neogence's Ace Revitalizing Eye Serum

Formulated with the high concentrate of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Matrixyl 300 (wrinkle smoothing factor) and Biophytex ( Brightening factor). The Ace Revitalizing Eye Serum increase the elasticity and increase firmness of skin around eye area, reduce wrinkles, lighten dark eye circles and refreshes the skin around the eyes.


3rd, Neogence Ace Liposome Renewal Whitening Serum.


Similar to the Eye serum, Ace Liposome Renewal is formulated with Vitamin A, C and E to help with rejuvenating skill cell, refine pores, increase skin elasticity, brightening and firms skin. Liposome coated conduct technology is also used in this product to allow maximum ingredient penetration.

4th step, Neogence's Ace Revitalizing Hydrating Fluid


Replacing the usual moisturizer with a lighter, more refreshing fluid texture, the Neogence Ace Revitalizing Hydrating fluid targets at restoring skin's balance in oil and water by retaining water and skin repairing.

Last but not least, Neogence's Ace Pore Concealing and Revitalizing Base Gel


Like all the products in the Ace series, the Base Gel is formulated with anti aging, whitening and hydrating, it is also infused with Trehalose Tomare Control Sebum Secretion that keep skin fresh and make up last longer.

Special care, Neogence Ace Renewal and Repairing Mask


Infused with Vitamin A,C and E micro emulsion, this renewal and repairing mask is a 15 min intensive repairing mask. The super conducting fiber material applies seamlessly on skin allowing complete absorption of essences.

I know it may sound contradicting as i mentioned that i've got dry skin but the Ace series is formulated for oily and combination skin. So, how can it help with my dry skin?

This is where all of us do not realize that dry or dehydrated skin is the root to many many skin problems and one of them is oily skin. And, the only real way to stop that oily skin is to keep our skin hydrated. So if you are wondering why that sebum control skincare of yours isn't working, try adding one or two hydrating products (please choose products wisely as some hydrating product maybe too rich and can cause break outs) to your routine and you maybe able see results.

I would say that the Ace series is one series that i have no complains about. Yes! No complains on any of the products, no stickiness, no breakouts, no i have too much product feeling and most important no medicated scent from the products.

The Ace series actually helped me with my dry skin issue as it has an extremely light consistency that allows fast absorption and keeping my face feeling refresh all day.  Its super hydrating formula actually helped balanced the water and sebum level of my skin. Now, i dun get super shining face and irritated skin at the end of the day and that allowed my makeup to last through out the day with out having to touch up.

Neogance Ace series is now available exclusively at Sasa. Prices ranging from $22.90 to $ 67.90.

*** Do keep your eyes peeled to the Sasa Singapore facebook page on the 17th and 24th of Feb as Sasa will be holding Neogance Ace Mask Giveaways and exclusive promotions to all their facebook fans.

Review: Ossion Mild Touch Detox Bubble Mask!

We all know that the current Korea trend has been on going for a few years, influencing the young and old in music, fashion and of course, beauty.

Today, i'll be reviewing an innovative mask flown in all the way from korea!

The Ossion Mild Touch Detox Bubble Mask!


As usual, a little about the brand before we start, Ossion, one of the many brands under the Hankook Cosmetic Umbella which is one of korea's leading cosmetic company.Having set up their own R&D centre, Hankook Cosmetics has not only been successful in working with international companies in product formulation, Hankook Cosmetics has also formulated many innovative and award winning in house brands. And one of them is Ossion. 



Like many brands The Ossion range of products is infused with it's own goodness, Merdel Complex.



Working with the goodness of the sea, Hankook Cosmetics has develop Ossion and it's different lines of products targeting at different skincare needs but focusing on restoring healthy skin and suitability for humid weathers. 

The different line of products under Ossion are:

The Mendel Line: 
Infused with the highest level of Mendel complex under the Ossion Brand, the Mendel line is the moisturizing range, targeting to help soften skin, maintain skin's moisture level without irritation.


The Time Curator Line:
Tageting at Anti Aging, the VCCE content in the products of this line helps to increase the elasticity, smoothen and hydrate skin.


And, The Mild Touch Line which focuses on cleansing.
With a whole line of cleansing product, ranging from cleansing oil, cleansing milk, cleansing form, cleansing wipes, etc. There is should one or a few for all you clean freaks out there.

And of course, the Ossion Mild Touch Detox Bubble Mask comes from this line. 


 So, let's start.

The Ossion Mild Touch Detox Bubble Mask is said to be Ossion's No.1 Selling product as it is a multi fuctional product that helps with not only cleansing and preventin/ reducing pore problems, it has a slimming effect that helps with firming and enhancing the V line of the face. 


For me, The Bubble Mask is indeed any interesting, innovative and effectless product to use.

By interesting, innovative and effectless, i mean:
1. How many products can you find in the market that changes from gel to bubble
2. The Bubbly sensation i get when the product disappear.
3. The product do not drip all over when applied

Here's how it work:

With clean hands and dry face (no cleansing of face is needed before appling mask), Spread gel all over face.


Bubble Mask before turning in to foam

Then, wait and be amuzed.

Notice that the Gel will within seconds turn in to a thick foam before it transform into bubbles and disappear.


To finish, wash with water.

What i like about the product:
As mention, i'm pretty amazed by the foaming and bubbling. As the mask has a gel consistency before i spread it on my face, it allows an easy/ hassle free application and use, therefore i'm able to move around and get things done while having the mask on. Also, unlike most cleansing mask, long waiting and painless peeling is not required. The bubble mask, turns from gel to foam with in seconds and from foam to bubbles within 5 mins. But leave it on for another 5 mins or till the bubbles start to disappear before washing the mask off.

I'm not sure about the slimming effect cause i'm only using it once a week when the recommended no. of use is 2 to 3 times a week. But it does help with cleansing one whole day of oil and a little bit of my white heads problem as it is said to be. Also, it leaves the skin super smooth, not smile and crack face after the mask.

What i dislike about product:
This will sound rather ridiculous but i seriously cannot stand bubbles in my nose!! ok, to be exact, around my nostrils area. It cause me to have problem with my breathing cause i do not want bubbles in my nose!

Anyway, that just me, so small issue.

Next, the reason i only use the bubble mask once a week is because the deep cleansing is too hash for my skin. I use to have combination skin but thanks to the super sonic air condition at my office my skin has became very dry. The dry ness of my skin then caused my face to be very oily after mid day. So, the bubble mask is good to help deep cleanse my face but if it is used for more than twice a week, after washing the mask off my skin will feel smooth, soft AND ITCHY! After a few tries, i found that once a week is the best. So, once a week it is!

Hankook Cosmetics is currently running a promotion on their website and it's 20% off for all items.

Till my next post, stay cheerful always =)

How do i clean my Make up brushes?

Beauty brushes or many call them make up brushes are the tool for beautification. Some have many, some have less and some even have none. For some, beauty brushes are in dispensable but for some their fingers are the ones that does the magic. I begin my make up journey with nothing more than my mum's make up, sponge applicator and blush brush *to be exact, travel size make up and blush brush*.

I got my brush set only after i started professional make up and my instructor expects everyone in class to have clean brushes every time she sees us.

So how do i clean my brushes?


I was asked many many times by friends, colleagues and clients, where do i get my brushes, what are they made of and why are they so soft. This question may not seem relevant to how i clean my brushes. However, the secret hide nice soft brushes is not solely on the brand and material. It's also the way we treat the brushes.

A little about my brushes, i would say that my brush collection is a decent one, no fancy brushes just enough for me to work with. Most of them are from Makeup Forever's S line and the bristles of the brushes are made of goat's or sable's hair. 2 of them from Make up forever's N line and they are with nylon bristles. A few other brushes from Sigma makeup which have synthetic bristles.

Many maybe wondering, where are the MACs!! but sorry i'm not really a MAC person, although i do go crazy at their sales but IMO they are alittle to over priced and even worse they "kinda" make you "addicted" to a super pretty shade of watever and then they discontinues it *irritated*.

Anyway, as many review goes, MUFE's brushes isn't the softest brushes around. So how comes soft brushes? Simple, care of your brushes like you care for your hair minus the chemical treatments, dye and wat not.

There is seriously no secret formula used in the cleansing of my brushes. In fact no special solution for brush cleansing is used,  all i have is cheap shampoo and conditioner.

Natural bristles are animal hair and like the human hair, animal hair can become very dry then split ends happens and your brush becomes very prickly.

And if you are going to use that prickly brush on your face, beautifying yourself will be a real pain.

So, Let's start.

Just like how we wash our hair, i:

Step 1: Wet bristles under running water, making sure that all the bristles are wet.

Step 2: pour a little amount of shampoo on my palm and whirl the bristles on the shampoo till the shampoo turns foamy. By now i'll be able to see the left over make up on my brushes come off turning the foamy colorful. i usually "shampoo" my blush and powder brushes individually as they are bigger and i dun wan they to get the colors from my eye brushes. Smaller eye brushes are held together while whirling them through my shampoo.

Step 3: wash out the shampoo on all brushes and lay all nylon/ synthetic brushes to dry on a piece of cloth as conditioning maybe not be of any good use.

Step 4: Apply conditioner on the bristles but try to avoid the silvery metal that hold them together. i'm not sure if the conditioner will loosen the grip or even stain the metal as till date none of these has happened but prevent is better than cure.  leave the conditioner on for 15 mins.

Step 5: wash conditioner off and lay them flat on a piece of cloth to dry.

Step 6 *opinion: once in awhile, i treat my natural hair brushes to a hair mask.

Now we are done with the brushes, what about our beauty puffs and sponge???

How do i clean them without having to to purchase a sponge cleanse?

Simple, the secret to clean and brand new looking sponge and puff, BAR SOAP!! yes, no need to spend on expensive sponge cleanses. Just bar soap, the cheaper the better!

Simply, wet the sponge or powder puff and rub the soap against them.


 Next, gentle rub them with your hands till you no longer see any make up on the puff and sponge.

Then, leave to dry. And, you can now re use your beauty puff and sponge.


Cleansing of make up tools frequently is as important as having to wash your face as dirt and reminding makeup may irritate your face causing acnes, redness and other skin problems. Plus there is no necessary to purchase expensive cleansing solutions so why not save that money for something else better.

So, till my next post. Stay cheerful always.

Blogger's Launch: Introducing L'oreal Professionnel

Was invited to L'oreal Professionnel's first bloggers' launch.

L'oreal Professionnel may not be a familiar brand to many as the products are not sold off shelf.


However, if u are a regular visitor of the many salons in singapore, then you should be no stranger to the brand, Loreal Professionnel.

For the benefit of those who do not know, Loreal Professionnel is a brand of the professional products division of the Loreal group. The strong belief in Creativity, Innovation and partnership are the reason why the brand and its product are preferred by hair professionals all over the world.

Offering a wide range of professional hair color, treatment, hair styling and home hair care products. The products by Loreal Professionnel can be divided into in salon and home hair care.

During the launch, we were introduced to 7 of the brand's new product.

Let's now go through each product.

1st up, Mythic Oil.

We all know that since many many ancient years ago, people have been using and believe in the goodness of oil, whether is it for their aromatic or medicinal properties. In the past, oil extracted from plants are used to sooth and calm skin as people know and believe strongly in oil's rich, powerful and protective goodness.

 

Formulated with this strong belief in "oil goodness" that dates many many ancients back, the Mythic oil has been reinvented to suit the lifestyle of many. It is a versatile hair oil that is suitable for all hair types and it helps to control and smoothens hair. The Mythic oil, due to its light weightness and intensely nourishing power, it can be used as "all fix in one" hair oil.

Infused with the goodness of Avocado oil and Grapeseed oil, the Mythic oil is rich in Vitamin A, B1, B2 and D that helps to smooth and nourish hair fibre. It also contain a high concentrate of linoleic acid, one of the most powerful antioxidants in the world which is able to penetrate hair quickly and nourish it deeply.

As mentioned, the mythic oil is a "all fix in one" hair oil:-

- Use it as Pre Shampoo oil, and it will help retain moisture and hair will feel softer and stronger after wash. Simply apply on dry hair before shampoo.

- Use it as a Blow dry Protective oil, the mythic oil not only protects hair from the heat, it's moisturizing texture facilitates the blow dry, leaving hair instantly detangled, smooth, supple, soft and intensely shiny.  

- Use it as an finishing oil, the mythic oil seals the blow dried and styled look, provide shine and prevent split and dry ends, delivering frizz control.

-Use it as a mid day restoration oil, it helps with the reconditioning your hair need during the day, giving it a quick nourishing fix which allows your hair to feel soft, silky and supple immediately.
Impressed? Wait till you hear the results.

Combining the goodness and richness of the two natural oils, Avocado and Grape seed oil, the Mythic oil has not only the ability to Deeply nourish, provide intense shine, long lasting anti frizz protection and suppleness of the hair, its light weightness and anti humidity allows hair to stay styled and look as if you have just step out of the house.

My thought on the Mythic Oil:
Although, i'm been gave the Mythic oil for about a month, to be honest, it didn't gave me a really good impression as it's light weightness did not really help to tame my bleached ends. However, it was till one week away when i went to Salon Vim to get rid of my bleached ends. Therefore, i no longer need anything super oily *grin*.

As i have a constant habit of wanting to change how my hair look, hair coloring became a habit. This led to flat, dry and dull hair, and caused me to want to color my hair even more, creating more havoc for myself. However, after using the Mythic oil of a week, my hair had became shiner, smoother and looking more healthy. The lightness of the oil did not weigh my hair down making it look even flat and most importantly, it did not cause me super oil hair.

The Mythic Oil is used after my shower. i simply just remove excess water from my hair and when my hair is still wet, i take 3 pumps of the mythic oil and apply it even at the ends of my hair no higher than my ear. Then leave my hair to dry naturally while i do my makeup so after about 15 mins, i simply comb my hair through and blow dry.

No tangles no breakage no frizz hair.

2nd product of this post, actually 4 products in total, They are the 

Riche Macadamia and Couleur Botanique from Serie nature.


And, Serie Nature is where Science meets Nature.

Serie Nature was created by Loreal professionnel in 2007 to respond to a growing demand for hair care in the natural care market. This was in respond to woman who are concerned about their environment but at the same time not ready to compromise the effectiveness of the products.


Series Nature believes in combining the best of Loreal professionnel's hair car know hows with the touch of nature. Aiming to maintain the quality of a professional shampoo, while enriching their formulas with nature ingredients.

Making the difference by not only formulating formulas that are paraben free and silicon free,the packaging found on the products of Serie Nature are produced with vegetable inks and responsibly sourced papers which are recyclable.


As important as our environment, the quality of the haircare in serie nature are also of top priority. Loreal professionnel has/will gradually introduce more respectful formulas with unique textures and fragrances and delivers hair with luxurious results.

And here are the two new products from the Serie Nature.

1st, Riche Macadamia.

Infused with macadamia nut oil, the riche macadamia is a thirst quenching shampoo and treatment for dry hair. The Riche Macadamia range targets dry hair to restore softness, nourishment without weighing hair down.


As mentioned before in my previous post, Sulfate is a cleansing agent found in many shampoo. The Sulfate is replaced by a gentle cleansing agents of plant origin. These cleansing agent creates a rich form, more gentle and more tolerant.

2nd, Couleur Botanique.

Like the riche macadamia, the Couleur Botanique is infused with active linseed oil that actively helps with protecting and preserving color treated hair. 


Linseed oil is used for its polymer properties on its own or to resins and solvents when mixed with other oils. Rich in Omega 3, linseed oil also has many medical benefits. Linseed oil forms an aqua-protective film around the hair fibre that helps preserve radiance and color.

Both the Riche Macadamia and Couleur Botanique comes with an Exclusive In Salon Service each.


Apart from Riche Macadamia and Couleur Botanique, Serie Nature has get a full range of other products targeted at different haircare problems.


My thought on the Riche Macadamia and Couleur Botanique products:
As mentioned for a gazillion times, i have got dry, bleached and very damaged hair. Therefore, Riche Macadamia is my first choice of shampoo as its designed and formulated for dry hair. After using the Riche Macadamia shampoo and hair mask, my hair did felt soft and smooth. However, i realized that my hair get very oily, shiny and flat at the end of the day. Although my ends are nice and soft but the shampoo is too rich for my roots.


I was told by Gary after visiting his salon at shampoos that lock in color, also lock in moisture. So i changed my Shampoo to the Couleur Botanique shampoo. Although it sounded like i'm defeating the purpose of the Couleur Botanique shampoo, but true enough it did helped with my oily roots issue and did not cause my hair to be dry and frizz. And for my ends, I'm still using the Riche Macadamia mask as a daily rinse off hair treatment after i shampoo my hair. So my Flat hair and dry ends issues are solved by putting 2 products from different ranges together.

And now, the last two products of this post, The  Super Style Heroes by Tecni.art


Ever wondered how models in those editorial shoots have super big hair?? That's because they have the whole "kitchen sink" in that fluffiness.

So what can used to shape your hair at home, as neat as those big hair and as cool as those stylish looking model?


Meet the Super Dust and Bad Mud.

Super Dust is a powder form styling product that allows volume with a matte effect.Simply dust some of the Super dust  directly on hair or on hand and spread it over the mid lengths or ends, take big sections and gently back comb hair with finger and run hair to create volume.

Model after Super Dust.

Bad Mud, is in the other hand a creamy textured clay that help mold hair to construct you desired style.
All we need is a nut sized amount of Bad Mud, warm it between hands and spread on dry or damp hair to create desired look.

Model after Bad Mud
In today's industrialized market, hair products can be easily purchased off the shelves of super markets and drugstore. But like the saying goes, The hair is the richest ornament of a person. It is important to find the correct haircare and styling product to allow your hair to look its best. Although professional product maybe a little more expensive and a little hard to access as they are only available in salons but with the advise of professional hair stylist, the chance of purchasing a product that does not suit your current hair issue is slimming. Giving your hair that everyone will die for look, i'm sure it's worth the money and time.

Till next time, Stay beautiful!

Salon Vim by Chez Vous: The Experience

Before i start this post, i'll have to say that i become very anal when it comes to me stepping into a salon. Whether issit the washing/ cutting/ dye/ blow dry/ trim even the attitude of my stylist can drive me nuts if something goes wrong.

That's the reason why i only visit the salon once a year.

So like my normal routine hair cut every year, i went down to Salon Vim for a hair cut.

I knew about Salon Vim and my hair stylist, Gary whose the director of Salon Vim after attending the Bloggers' launch by Loreal professionnel introduction their Mythic Oil and Stylist products. And of course, as Director of Salon Vim by Chez Vous, one the salons designated by Loreal Professional as their flagship store, Gary was one of the speakers at the launch.

During the launch, the blogger were sitting around "complaining" about our hair issues to gary and of course i did a ton of questioning about my FLAT!!! hair. My questions were answered BUT my problem is not solved. My hair is still flat and i got more and more fustrated by it each day.

So straight after the Lunar new year holidays, i made an appointment at Salon Vim to see gary.

Pic taken from Salon Vim fb page

Although, Salon Vim is located in the heart of orchard road, the interior deco of the salon was surprising simple. And by simple i DUN mean run down. Simple earthy colors, clear cut lines and cool natural light made the salon less sophisticated and more edgy with its natural simplicity. I remember reading somewhere that a salon shouldnt be fulled with fancy colors, decos and lighting as only the simplest environment can show the true color, texture and style of ones hair.

I understand that there words in some of the local forums that Salon Vim is very overhyped and all advertorials. I have my own doubts after making the appointment, doubts about their service and most importantly if they are going to hard sell me products!! *HATE IT THE MOST!!* But, i still went for my appointment and even brought my personal barber (boyfie) with me.

Upon arrival, we were shown to our seats and were served drinks and even biscuits. I didn't have to wait too long for Gary to come over and say "Hey, i remember you from the product launch". I told him i wanted a hair cut cause i needed a change in style and i've had enough of my flat hair. Gary asked if there is a particular style i wanted and how much length can he take off. And my answer to him was, i dunno and please dun take off too much length.

Before picture taken from instagram on me complaining about my hair

i was than sent to the basin for hair wash. Remember i said that i become super anal when it comes to my hair? Hair wash is one of the service that i seriously hate, it's either the water is too cold or the person's nails are too long or water splashing all over my face or rubbing of my ears for no reason. However, the hair wash at Salon Vim was a rather enjoyable one.

Not too much pressure was used, no wash splashing all over the place, the lady that helped me with the hair wash also checked the water temperature with me and the head massage was a rather relaxing one plus she took her time during the head massage no rush and no sudden pressure. *feelingzen* After hair wash, my hair was blown dry.

Next, Its Gary's action time *sounds like some kind of action hero act, but Gary is seriously very friendly*, he did his little consultation and told me it's extremely important as he need to know what his clients really want before he figures something for them against their problems/ requirements. As i do not have a particular style that i wanted, i told gary it were be up to him BUT he have to help me with 3 problems under 1 condition.

Problem no. 1: I have got really flat hair
Problem no 2: My hair parting has been since forever and i'm afraid my hairline is starting to move up
Problem no 3: The ends of my hair tends curl toward my right if they are over cut.
And,the condition: he is only able to take away 1 inch of my hair length

My boyfie was sitting beside me looking rather irritated about me being a pain in gary's ass but no problem, my hair is in good hands!

Gary gave me full body hair at the ends, he did explain his cut and i remembered hearing him mention triangle scut?? or something along the line. Cannot really remember as he was talking and telling me alot of stuff about himself, his path to success and his passion for hair modifications! *super word to use* I mentioned he was really friendly remember? Anyway, problem 3 solved as full body hair can weigh down my hair and prevent them from going haywire.

He then move to the top, did some snaps and instantly volume appear, he also helped me change my hair parting and teach me how to maintain it. So again problem 1 and 2 solved.

Gary also took the pain to style my hair and made mi look so good, everyone on my facebook page went crazy. BUT the truth is i did not perm my hair!! i know the curl looks super gorgeous and i look super feminine with them but it only lasted awhile *sadface*

Finally...

After!! pretty much!? i want those curls!!

Anyway, i dun feel that the praises and advertorial are too much for Salon Vim. They provide good service, project professionalism and a whole load of friendliness. What can anyone ask for??

I do admit that the price tag may be a wee bit high but we humans need to pamper ourselves once in a blue moon when our pocket allows us too... 

Gary... =)
