On one of the alleys off of Des Voeux Road in Central, there is a shoe store called Vicki that will custom-make your shoes for you.

THe address is 25 Li Yuen Street East, and their phone # is 2525 6402.

You can get most of their shoes that are on display in any fabric or leather you want, just ask for the book of fabric and leather swatches. I got some killer snakeskin mules made there last year. In fact, I'm picking up some black leather pumps from them tomorrow afternoon! I love them because I have a size 6 1/2 foot length but a size 7 width (which is slightly different than a 6 1/2 wide). The amazing thing is, they don't charge extra for custom-making your shoes (unless you choose a more expensive fabric, then you pay a little extra surcharge). Most of their shoes are around HK$300.

As you can tell, I love this place.

Let's not forget PURE SPA - they got 1st place in the HK Mag recently for BEST SPA in HK! with full confidence - I use their sevices too! I only have Pure Fitness's no. Kinwick center 29703366, or 2IFC 81298000 they can transfer you to the Spa counter.

For waxing, I use the services of Essence Spa in Central, 31060303. I have yet to use their facial services, though. Anyone here who had experienced it, and what's your feedback?
