181: Crystal Tomato Launch in Malaysia - Crystal Tomato Plus & Crystal Clear Skin Clarity Cream

 

About a month ago, I took note of an invitation for the launching of a beauty supplement or rather, more of a beauty solution I would say. This Crystal Tomato Plus was a total alien to me. Not knowing anything about it, I watched a video on their facebook page and got a rough idea of it being a product which can enhance a person's skin beauty.

178: Horien - Beauty Secret, Eye Secret!

 

 source: 1

Horien Optic (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, a Malaysia based company has finally launched contact lenses and lens care product under the brand name Eye Secret. The products are manufactured by Yun Sheng Optical Co., Ltd, an advanced contact lens and lens care product manufacturer in Taiwan.

source: 1

Yumi Wong, a renowned artist in Taiwan was signed as the ambassador of Horien Eye Secret contact lense product. According to Yumi, the contact lenses were soft and very comfortable to wear. The colour lenses also allows her to have trendy beautiful eyes.

Horien's products consist of the following;

Eye Secret 55% Soft Contact Lenses

Using top focusing technology, the aspheric design and HD technology is used to ensure visual acuity, especially in dark environment.I has s smooth surface leading to less protein deposit which promotes clear vision and perfect comfort! Besides that, it also has a UV protection function, defending eyes from harmful UV lights.

Eye Secret 38% Soft Contact Lenses 

Apparently, high water content lens actually absorb our tear and disrupt the normal tear circulation causing a higher chance of having dry eyes. Instead of releasing water, it will absorb our tears to compensate for loss water.

With the perfect formula of 28% water content, Sodium Hyaluronate (which can form water locking experience), and trehalose (can remain moisture during complete dry condition to increase comfort in dry condition), it is said to give a super moist experience!

Monthly Color Lens

Daily Color Lens 

Horien Colour Lenses are made using advanced "BMW Technology" which immerges paint into the lenses. the colours have no direct contact with the eyes, making it safe to use for long hours.

Three factors of this technology is as below;

• colors are wrapped with HEMA which prevents color from leeching out
• sophisticated printing ensure that colour will not block the eye sights, promoting a high level of sharpness and visual accuracy.
• lenses are made using a filling and thermal process creating a flat surface lens which will not crack easily.

Eye Secret Multi-Purpose Solution

 

Eye Secret Fresh Solution

Provides long term moisture. Antibacteria. Effectively deproteinize.

Eye Secret Lubricating and Rewetting Drops

I was given a few pairs of contact lenses for trial;

Eye Secret 38% Soft Contact Lenses - I have used the contact lense for 2 days. when I first unpackage the lens, I felt quite surprise to feel a thin and soft contact lens. in comparison to other monthy lenses. Speaking from the perspective of some one who has dry eyes problem like me, I am happy to say that I did not experience any dry eyes condition; dry lenses will lead to slightly blurry vision. 

As an icing on the cake, the lenses are actually easy to remove by the end of the day! I guess this is due to the technology which locks moisture even in dry condition.

Daily Color Lens - was given a black ring colour contact lens. As can be seen, the iris looks larger, giving a brighter look. Can't deny that it gives a better impression during work or social.

The lens condition and level of comfort is similar to the Eye Secret 38% Soft Contact Lenses.

Monthly Colour Lens - comfortable level is similar to above. Very comfortable and no experience of dry eyes condition. Got to stress again that this has got to be the most comfortable lenses I have worn so far. Pretty impressed with the comfortable level. The colour lens colour sent to me is of outer black ring with inner navy blue ring.

As can see, the colours is not obvious unless observing in a close distance, you might realise the existence of the blue colour. :) The right choice for those who likes colour lenses but not something that shouts out in obvious.

Want beautiful eyes? Horien is the key to beauty secret, eye secret. May I add on, comfortableness too!

177: Detoxing with CuppaTeaUK!

Few weeks ago, I was approached to try on a Teatox product by CuppaTea UK. At first I thought, I don't need any teatox for weight loss or burning fats! I'm already thin enough. I'm sure many would agree. Girls would kill me if I tell them I have unwanted fats..

...but then, CuppaTea also promotes detox / toxic cleanse! That's something I could use and that marks the beginning of my teatox journey with CuppaTea.

176: BiO-LiFE® Astaxanthin 4mg - The King of Antioxidants!

I have just received my month's dosage of Astaxanthin 4mg from BiO-LiFE last Thursday and I'm really excited about this! It's time to religiously intake a pill each everyday and let's see what it does after a month's consumption!

But wait a minute! What's Astaxanthin and why am I so excited about this supplement?

 

Here's an excerpt I found from BiO-LiFE Astaxanthis packing;

"Astaxanthin is a naturally accuring carotenoid found in nature primarily in marine organisms such as microalgae, salmon and krill. It is the pigment that provides salmon with their pink-red colour. The microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis is considered the richest source of astaxanthin. 

The astaxanthin used is BiO-LiFE Astaxanthin 4mg capsule is cultured and extracted under a unique and controlled technology."

I know most of you would rather not go deep into the technicality of this supplement. All you want to know is what it will do to your body and why you need to take this supplement! So let's get started!

We have heard about free radicals and how they are our enemy. Actually, our body produces free radicals as well but at an amount which our body antioxidants will be able to handle. That's why when we talk about free radicals, it is always those produced by toxic in environments surrounding us such as pollution, the sun's UV light, tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption. The disability to neutralize these free radical leads to a damaging condition called "oxidative stress".

Oxidative stress is the primary reason for our aging body and the most powerful oxidant and anti-infalmmatory known to science right now to neutralize these external free radical is Astaxanthin.

This supplement is made with AstaReal® Natural Astaxanthin, a registered threadmark of Fuji Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. who are commited to ensure the supply of superior, natural Astaxanthin products through it's subsidary AstaREAL AB Sweeden.

The positive health effects of AstaReal® Natural Astaxanthin is proven to work and amazingly diverse as well;

Improve Gastric Health;

• Lowers gastric inflammation
• Decreases infection of Helicobacter pylori
• Reduces clinical symptoms in dyspepsia patients

In a summary;

"BiO-LiFE® Astaxanthin 4mg is a powerful anti-oxidant which studies have revealed to greatly improve skin through the reduction of wrinkles, age spots and moisture loss, while also promoting better skin elasticity. A dose of Astaxanthin a day promotes improvements to skin health and also reduces skin damage caused by sunlight or other sources of ultraviolet light."

Honestly speaking, this is probably the supplement which impressed me the most to date and I can't wait to see the result!

174: BloomThis Surprise at My Doorstep + Giveaway!

 

This is a confession post.

*takes a deep breath*

Here it goes... one of the reason I like flowers in a bouquet is because I'm bad at flower arrangements! Now the whole world knows. ugh... >.<

But thennnn!!! There's a new surprise going around town and I don't want to miss it!

Why? Because it has something to do with floral! So... must... subscribe!

First surprise arrived last Thursday and it got me so excited! Usually, I wouldn't bother to check who rang the doorbell but that day, I was all ears for the doorbell! You can imagine how excited I was~

Finally, the surprise arrived in a long flat box package. It was late noon and the sight of the package got me wondering if the flowers suffocated after a long journey, if the flowers would have folding lines or if they were crammed inside the box.  

I open up the package to a lovely message with a personal greeting. Nothing feels more personal than have a message directed to myself. The surprises were carefully protected with a layer of soft wrapping and elegantly hold together with a perfectly tied ribbon. Have to admit that I have a soft spot for beautiful perfectly tied ribbons. *melts*

I unfold to a variety stalk of delicate flowers, most of which I would not expect to receive at all.  Besides a personal greeting card, another reads the type of flowers in this surprise box; Eustoma / Peacock / Agapanthus / Rose / Matthiola. 

I suppose most of you, like me, would not know which is which according to the names. I was impressed with the extra effort in providing some flower knowledge.

Eustoma refers to the Rose like purple flower while Peacock is the one which look like little white daisies. As for the white Rose, I guess everyone knows which it is. ^^

The big stalk with many spread out purple petals is called Agapanthus while the soft looking petals which comes in pink and purple colour is called Matthiola. I was pretty attracted to Matthiola  by it's name together with it's delicate form and colour.

As can be seen, the flowers came in looking extremely fresh, with almost unnoticeable folding and browning. Another strong selling point coming from BloomThis is that they deliver the freshest flower I have ever received so far. 

Their secret lies in these little water capsules which keeps the flowers fresh the whole delivery journey. Promotes much hassle free when removing the stalks from their flower source, don't you agree?

As mentioned, I have totally zero knowledge about flower arrangement but I just have to go the extra mile because these flowers are too pretty to go to waste~ You know what's worse? I found out there's not flower vase in the house.. *inserts swt face emoticon* BUT.. I manage to come out with something!

Tadaa! the final outcome! I think they look pretty awesome. What do you think?

I made use of the wrapping and ribbon which came with the flowers and a glass bottle for the vase. <3

Super in love with this addition in the house. Swear it brightens up the dull space and compound a whole lot! Every morning I wake up, I thought about the flowers and they just makes me smile. Don't ask me why girls like flowers.. I guess it's because they are so pretty~

From the day I received the flowers, some bloom into more beautiful flowers and all of them manage to stay perfectly fresh till up to 4-5 days later. It's exciting to see some bloom from the buds.

Just as you were wondering what else is there on the cards; tips for beautiful arrangements and ways to lengthen the lifespan of these beautiful flowers were shared. According to the tips, changing the water everyday and trimming the bottom of the flower stem in at a slant every few days will keep the flowers looking fresh longer. Very useful information indeed.

Just yesterday (Yes! It's Thursday again!), I received another lovely surprise package from BloomThis! It arrived just as I was going out for lunch. I had a peak and I message my boy;  

The flowers are in! Guess what flower?  
Roses.  
Guess what Colour?  
Yellow.

Omg! How can he be so telepathic! Haha..

Indeed, it was yellow roses! With additional of some in soft peach colours (which I only found out when I unwrap)! Never thought I would like those in peach colours. They actually look very soft and feminine. Just got me admiring them for a moment there.

Love the colour choices this time! Promotes a very relaxing vibe, just in time for the long holiday.

Flowers in the package this time are yellow and peach Roses together with white Phlox (top left) and Peacock (bottom right). The white Phlox is a new encounter for me.

Here's my simple arrangement with an addition of pink ribbon from the package. ^^
