Essence, Prestige Cosmetics and Random Appreciation

May 31, 2010 by Sheila | A B & Me 6 Comments

I was in the mall today to check out what they have in Essence. Nothing much has changed since my last visit but Len, the sales assistant in charge was very accommodating. She even offered to give me a make over!! (I’ll make a separate post for that)

I found out that Essence is being distributed here in Dubai via Multiplex LLC/Exquisite Trading LLC (retail arm). They also carry other brands like Prestige Cosmetics, T-Zone and Bioskin Care. 

It’s nice to know that there are still people who’d go out of their way for potential clients. Customer service here in this place has always been questionable. In fact, I sent out inquiries to companies distributing OPI, Nubar and Orly nail polishes. Surprise, surprise!! No response.

Anyway, I just want to say that today I felt that I am a valued customer. Thank you, Len.

 

This was taken earlier in Dubai Festival City. The kiosks for Essence and Prestige Cosmetics are in Hyper Panda. Check it out!

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO” mindset. It sounds fun — and sometimes it IS harmless. But when we let it guide our decisions without pause… it can turn into a habit of acting first, thinking later. 

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)

You’re really a hard habit to break.
