For the Love of Facials!!!

It took me quite some time to decide to post this because I am really putting myself on the line....

I am about to show you just how hideous I look without make up AND with a facial care called Karuma that works well but not in a very glamourous procedure.

Just make sure you are reading this with the lights on, no children and no heart ailment. I am not liable to any fainting, trauma or mental torture that might occur as you read on.

After work, with all the make up, dust, sweat..whatever grime is on my face, I always look forward to washing it all off. When I am not so lazy, I sometimes put on a masque or a nose strip.

Last night, I tried Karuna and decided to document each step to show my male readers the hardship that we women go through to look pretty for them.

STEP ONE, wash your face.

A major revolution in the skin care industry is coming. Inspired by a combination of beauty rituals from East and West and the wisdom of compassion from within, Karuna introduces seven, high-performance, luxury facials that will effectively meet skin care needs of women worldwide.

STEP TWO, get your Karuna and pose for the camera.

Karuna, founded by Linda Wang in 2009, is a luxury skin care line targeting specific skin concerns. Wang was initially intrigued by the beauty regimen of Asian women and their secret to flawless skin and thought of creating a facial application that is serious in taking care of the skin. She then created a beauty culture that fuses East and West to come up with an innovative beauty solution inspired by the wisdom behind Karuna (compassion) and caring. Karuna facial masks are sure to deliver results that pamper, treat, and solve the most common skin care concerns in a fresh, modern way.

STEP THREE, open the packet and lay out the mask on your face.

For a complete facial skin care, Karuna offers six Treatment Masks to choose from, depending on your needs. The Karuna Treatment Masks contain Karuna Beauty Boost, propriety of Chines licorice, aloe vera, chamomile, vitamin B, and plant extracts that efficaciously heal, detox, and renew all skin types. Exfoliation Treatment Mask promises to revive and renew the facial skin while the Anti-Blemish Treatment Mask helps for calming and clarity. Fight signs of aging with Anti-Aging Treatment Mask for vitality and transformation. Look fresh everyday with Hydrating Treatment Mask which helps restore and retain skin’s beauty. Anti-Oxidant Treatment Mask helps protect and balance skin while the Brightening Treatment Mask reveals and enlightens skin.

STEP FOUR, make sure the whole face is covered. (OMG, I can't believe I am showing you this.)

STEP FIVE, peel off the plastic layer and leave the towelette on your face. Dispose plastic sheet.

Masks are made of all-natural fiber cloth which retains 50% more moisture than synthetic fiber cloths, helping pores fully dilate and drink in the paraben-free beneficial ingredients. Made from bio-degradable wood pulp, the cloth used is truly a green and luxurious alternative. Karuna’s special one-step, no-rinse formula lets skin continue to absorb benefits even if mask is removed.

STEP SIX, flatten out the fiber sheet on your face and rub all excess moisturizer on your neck. (I know, I look like a serial killer.)

STEP SEVEN, after 15 minutes, take out fiber sheet and wipe excess moisturizer on the face.

The Karuna Karma Kit is a premium collection of four of the best-selling Karuna masks including the hydrating mask, anti-oxidant mask, exfoliating mask and anti-aging mask which seeks to transform the skin and the way women care for it. Truly, the Karma Kit gives a positive karma your skin truly deserves!

After seeing my horrible photos above, I couldn't wait to layer on the make up to look human again. At least underneath all that make up, my skin is moisturized and fresh, thanks to Karuna.
