Treat yourself to some me-time around Manila
Despite being stuck at home for the past few months, an entire day dedicated to self-care and ‘me-time’ is still very much needed. Now that Manila is under General Community Quarantine (GCQ), many establishments, including beauty and pampering studios, have reopened with new safety and health protocols in place to ensure the safety of both their employees and customers.
If you’re looking to indulge in some self-care activities after cocooning yourself at home for 6 months, here are a couple of activities you can enjoy just around Manila.
Glass Skin Facial by Belo
Give your skin the TLC it needs and book a slot for a Glass Skin Facial at none other by the country’s best, Belo. The Glass Skin Facial will bring you closer to the Korean glass skin that you’ve always dreamt of (after watching all of those Korean dramas over quarantine).

The procedure itself involves a multi-step deep cleansing wash, completed by an ultrasound treatment using Hyaluronic Acid gel that reduces wrinkles. This is perfect for those with dull and dry skin, uneven skin tones, and those struggling with large pores or fine lines and wrinkles.
The Glass Skin Facial by Belo is originally priced at Php 8000, but if you book on Klook, you can avail of this service for just Php 6,400.
