So… did you figure it out?   Here it is again:

sasa product

And here is what it is (source: http://web2.sasa.com/SasaWeb/eng/product/viewProductDetail.jspa?itemno=103563902002#):

description: Be Creation Body Double Roller is consisted of 2 rows of V-shaped rollers, which enables perfect contact with fat-prevailing areas like tummy, thighs, shank and hips.  It attacks fat by boosting metabolism for firm and slim figure.

how to use it:

  • For tummy: massage in “W” movement
  • For legs: massage and push in upward direction
  • For hip: massage and push in upward direction

And here’s what someone said about it:

looks good. look forward the effect
I have received the product today, fast deliver in good condition. I can’t wait to try it. It looks good. After use it, my body turn red and feel a little burning. Will continue to use and hope to see the result as soon as possible.

From the Cosmetics World of Asia to Beauty Junkies in the US

FINALLY.  SaSa is now here in the US!  I’m not sure how long ago this took place, but Sasa.com now not only caters and ships to the US market, but for orders over $75, shipping is free!  

For those who frequent the huge stores of anything-you-need-in-the-beauty-category in Asia, yay!  For those of you who are not familiar with who or what the heck Sasa is, just imagine, a Sephora store, but with hair, skin care, make up products and accessories (my favorite part!) from Europe, US, AND also Japan, Korea, HK etc.  I have always wondered, with the growing interest surrounding Asian culture, and the solid Asian-American consumer base, why there wasn’t a “Sephora Asia” or something here.   Well forget my idea of “Sephora Asia”…. cuz Sasa is here, and if they continue their huge success in Asia, they’re here to stay and spread.

My favorite part of Sasa.com are actually the unique and innovatibe beauty accessories that Korea and Japan comes up with.  For example, can you guess what this is and what its purpose is?

What is this?

What is this?

 

I’ll tell you in a few days. =)

Fave Beauty Tweets Of The Week

#41: Our Cleansing Clear Gel leaves no dirt or impurities behind, even around the eyes and mouth area. Wipe off with cotton or rinse away with water & voila.

#42: Apply a thin layer of  crème a-VC over face or target. Use a shower or steamer to stimulate perspiration for 10 minutes before rinsing = great mask.

#43: 44% of women are using 1-5 more skin care products than they did one year ago.

#44: When applying beauty products, finish by firmly pressing skin with the palms of your hands to promote absorption.

#45: Don’t want leathery skin? Lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by reducing exposure to the sun’s dangerous rays.

Fave Beauty Tweets Of The Week

#36: Treat your skin to a facial to rejuvenate it. The facial must include a massage to improve blood circulation and promote the growth of new cells.

#37: We’re adventurous but it IS better to understand ur skin type before trying products & recipes to avoid ending up with a blotchy, red face!

#38: One of the most important things is to start with a very clean base, use a good quality cleaner to remove any of your existing makeup.

#39: “Beauty isn’t worth thinking about; what’s important is your mind. You don’t want a $50 haircut on a 50-cent head.” Garrison Keillor

#40: For clear skin slice off the top of a strawberry, rub it on a just-clean face. Wait 10 minutes, then rinse.

Fave Beauty Tweets of the week

#28: Uneven skin-tone? Alpha-arbutin (as found in the crème a-vc)  is 10x more effective at brightening and maintaining an even skin tone.

#29: Did you know? Vitamin A and C are both anti-aging fighters… You can find them in our Vital Nanoemulsion a-vc

#30: Follow the goodness of “water therapy”. Drink a lot of water as it helps to get rid your body of toxins.

#31: The restoration clear gel is our best selling product for a reason: This gentle gel will exfoliate your skin, leaving you with less wrinkles and a healthy glow.

#32: If you sleep in a bedroom with central heating your skin will suffer and become dry because of lack of moisture in the room – the remedy is a bowl of water placed on your radiator which will increase the humidity in the room

#33: As you get older you need to use less make-up, not more! Too much, can be extremely aging and too much powder is the biggest culprit.

#34: Even if you don’t apply mascara, do curl your lashes to make your eyes look more open and awake.

#35: Doing a lot of traveling for work? Invest in our travel kit (You can refill them with our products once they’re empty!) Convenient and green!
