NuE Shape
NuE Shape has been providing solutions for all skin, body and hair removal needs for over 10 years! Nestled among the hustle and bustle of the CBD, it’s the perfect spot for a quick stress-free getaway from the office. Mamas looking for a better alternative to waxing and shaving can try out their new painless hair removal technology, the iMAX Hair Removal system. Targeting areas all over the body (from small areas such as the upper lip, navel, fingers or toes to larger areas such as underarms, chest, back, arms, legs and bikini line), the system transmits pulsed light at specific wavelengths which disables the hair follicles by terminating the hair bulbs without damaging the surrounding skin tissue. The procedure is fast and painless with no downtime or side effects, and you can expect permanent hair reduction with enough sessions!

And as a bonus you pay a [surprisingly reasonable] lifetime fee that allows you to return if your hair should grow back.

Sugar(ed)
We’re sure you’ve heard us rave about Sugar(ed), the first and only dedicated professional body-sugaring studio in Singapore. The studio specialises in Brazilians for her and offers additional body sugaring options for both men and women. If you’ve never heard of sugaring, it’s an organic and all-natural hair removal method that dates back to Egyptian times. Using a warm, pliable paste of sugar, honey and lemon, it’s gently spread onto the skin, grabbing onto hair from the roots and flicked off in (not against) the same direction of hair growth to ensure little to no breakage, and lessening the formation of ingrown hairs. Facial sugaring takes just about 10 to 20 minutes per area, while Brazilian/Manzilian sessions can take as quick as only 20 minutes!
How much: $25 for ladies’ underarms ($30 for men) and $65 for first-time Brazilian ($90 for men), includes Complimentary Mud Treatment.
