Maggie, for some reason, your video and your demo with Lanshin really made me tear up! I love learning how the Pro Tool has become such an important ritual in your beauty routine. It's beautiful how a beauty routine can change, but there's always one that stays the same. We have talked about this a little while back but I'm always in awe of hearing your testimonies about your Gua Sha routine and how your mum made use of the massager :') it's a sweet story and I hope her massager still keeps her well. I also want to ask - What's the difference between the newer version and the updated version of the Pro Lanshin Tool? (I'm sorry if you already explained in the video and I somehow missed it!)

And thank you for sharing all these awesome movies and videos! Omg, I just watched Kako and Ako Sisters! They made me smile the whole way but my belly feels so full already from watching it - they are amazing! I just love all the way until the very end that their expression is the same as before they eat!

Asti, I hope they were happy tears! I'm sending you an e-hug! I've loved all our conversations about facial gua sha, and I'm pleased to report it's stayed the same and even evolved! It's such an essential part of my routine. My Mom still has it and uses it too. She just watched my video and loved seeing that she had the same massager, haha!

I did talk briefly about the difference between the previous and current versions of the Pro Tool. (It's between the Unboxing and Skin Prep portions!) I think the main difference is the angles and feel of edges. The new one hugs contours of the face better, and the comb edge is less angular, which makes it feel more gentle and organic when using it! It's also ever so slightly lighter and thinner in feel, so it's more comfortable to hold without losing that luxurious weightiness!

I'm so glad you're enjoying the different sections of the newsletter. Yes, Kako and Ako make me smile too! And I share entirely the same feeling of a full belly when I watch them eat. It's amazing!

Thanks again, Asti, for always watching my videos and reading these newsletters. It means so much to me. Honored to be a part of your week!

They're sentimental tears - the way you connect with your beauty ritual is beautiful and also the fact that you are always so generous with sharing the ritual with others and crafted it to perfection.

Oh, you did compare them! I'm sorry I missed that - I just went back to that part now where you were comparing the shapes of the previous and the updated version. Thank you for the reference and the comparison- that's very helpful to know.

Of course, Maggie!!! Hope you had a great weekend yesterday! ^_^
