Jurlique Greenbelt 5 – A Mini Tour

Sometimes, new, high-end shops can be quite intimidating to explore. Jurlique is an exception in my opinion because of the homey, simple design and structure of the store. Even back then when they first opened, I didn’t get any qualms about going inside the shop. The interiors are very relaxing and the sales attendants aren’t pushy. They also don’t hover. Don’t you just hate hovering SA’s that keep asking you what you’re looking for? With Jurlique, they give you space but the SA’s maintain a safe distance in case you have some questions about their products.

Here’s the Refresh and Recover stations. It’s on your left when you enter the store. Here, you can see all the varieties of cleansers and toning mists. I want the lavender mist! Teresa recommends the Citrus mist for oily, acne-prone skin.

Special Care section where the moisturizers and gels are:

I think I’m going to buy the ones Teresa used on my face.

The Hair and Body Care section is on the right. I love the hand creams and will be buying one after I finish my hand creams. I still have 3. Hoo boy.. I guess another Project Pan is due…

Sitting area for your companions (or boyfriend). MB didn’t wait inside the boutique. He went all over Greenbelt instead while waiting for me. That’s the poster advertising the Free Anti-Stress Facial.

Finally, behind that door is the treatment area. I don’t really know what video they’re playing on the TV but I guess it’s something about how their products are made. Senior people from Jurlique were talking on the TV when I arrived.

Soft music is always playing on the background and that helps one to relax while having the facial. If you meditate or know some breathing exercises, I recommend you practice them during the 10-minute alone time. You will feel refreshed and invigorated after the treatment.

I love the lighting and garden setting of this boutique. FYI, the plants are real. The leaves are so shiny that I kept touching them!

Jurlique may be inside Greenbelt 5 where it can be quite busy especially on a Saturday night but once you’re inside, you are transported to a place of peace and tranquility. And of course, beauty.

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

The Pleasure of Leaving It Behind

I really liked this dress. Enough that I stood there looking at it for far longer than necessary, having that familiar little debate with myself. It was black. Simple. Very me. I could already imagine how I would wear it. There was only one problem. The fabric was thick. And perhaps in another climate, or another version of my life, that wouldn’t matter very much. But I live in the Philippines. We’re going through El Niño. Heat and I are already not particularly good friends, and my histamine sensitivity has made me even less willing to wear something that might leave me uncomfortable simply because it looks good. Still, I stood there. Because sometimes walking away from something we like is strangely difficult, even when we already know it isn’t right for us. We start negotiating. Maybe I’ll only wear it indoors. Maybe the fabric isn’t that thick. Maybe I’ll regret leaving it behind. Then I realized I was trying awfully hard to convince myself to buy something my body had alrea...
