Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Hair & Body Collection the Beauty Solutions from Nature by Guardian

Guardian, the largest pharmacy, health and beauty retail chain in Malaysia has introduced the new Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Hair & Body Collection for eco-conscious consumers who prefer effective beauty solutions with ingredients harvested from nature. The collection was launched at Core Gallery recently with an exhibition and gallery tour of the exotic ingredients and production process, that showcased the range as a work of art.

The Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Hair & Body range gets its name from the combination of three 100% eco-certified exotic oils that are the next wave in moisturising hair and skin care - Babassu Oil from Latin America, Baobab Oil from Africa and Chufa Oil from France. The Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Collection is believed to be among the first hair and body care ranges to harness the power of these exotic oils. Given the long hours spent in dry and humid environment, skin care in the tropics needs the added boost of moisturisers, which is why every variant in the Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Collection is further enriched with two additional moisturisers for five times the moisturising benefits.

All three variants for both Body Wash and hair care range of Hair Shampoo, Hair Conditioner and one amazing Hair Elixir are formulated with botanical ingredients, enriched with Trio Oil. Made with eco-certified ingredients and dermatologicallytested and proven, Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Collection is gentle and effective to suit consumers who want spa or salon results at home, without the harshness of harmful chemicals namely Parabens, Silicone, Soap, Colorant, Lanoline and DEA. The Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Collection is free from harmful ingredients such as parabens, artificial colorants and silicone giving consumers who are health-conscious and environmentally-friendly, peace of mind.

Babassu oil is ideal for hair moisturisation. It contains five fatty acids as well as Vitamin E and phytosterols which act as anti oxidant agents. Baobab oil is an ancient beauty secret of Africa. This centuries old therapy  is laden with Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids that promote healthy skin and hair. Baobab oil leaves the hair soft and silky while protecting it from damage caused by the sun and free radicals. Baobab oil is also an excellent skin moisturiser, which absorbs quickly into the skin.

Chufa oil is a mainstay of Mediterranean beauty.By containing Omega 6 and 9 as well as Vitamin E, chufa oil is rich in antioxidants that fight free radicals to preserve a more youthful appearance. The Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Bath Collection consists of three variants to suit different targeted and intensive needs, namely Whitening, Moisturising and Gentle Cleansing. Consider the Whitening variant if uneven skin tone or dark patches are a problem, as it is enriched with apricot kernels and licorice extracts, to gently exfoliate skin while evening out skin tone. Opt for the Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Moisturising variant if long hours in dry environments such as air-conditioned workplaces leave skin dry. It has added olive oil and Vitamin E to boost the moisturising effects of Trio Oil, improve skin elasticity as well as provide satin care for dry skin. The Gentle Cleansing variant with cherry blossom extract is ideal as it helps in skin softening and prevents skin dryness. 

Three variants are also available for the Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Hair Shampoo and Conditioner Collection that provides salon quality results, minus the harshness of paraben, artificial colorants  and silicone on hair and scalp. The collection provides effective solutions to common hair problems such as frizzy, damaged, and weak hair that is prone tofalling due to breakage. It is silicone-free for relaxing shampoo and conditioning experience.

To tame coarse and frizzy hair opt for the Smooth & Silky Shampoo and Conditioner variant that adds calendula extract to the moisturising power of Trio Oil to condition hair for a smoother and more manageable texture.

The Repair & Strengthen Shampoo and Conditioner variant is perfect for damaged hair as the magnolia extract adds conditioning to the moisturising and smoothing properties of Trio Oil.

Enriched with sunflower oil, the Hair Fall Control Shampoo and Conditioner of the Botaneco Garden Trio Oil Collection is enriched with sunflower oil to strengthen hair and reduce hair fall due to breakage.

In addition to three exotic oils, the Hair Elixir is enriched with Chamomile extract to deliver ten types of hair benefits.

Philips Launched KeraShine Haircare Range

Hey, ladies! Honestly, it's no secret that your inner diva dreams of walking out the door every morning with perfectly coiffed tresses, but then frequent styling can really hurt your hair. What if there were hair tools out there that combined hair styling with hair care? Philips has developed the new Philips KeraShine range and I'm happy to be invited to join the media launching last week. With the launch of the KeraShine range, now you can style your tresses without worrying about damaging your hair! 

Bringing hair care and hair styling together, the Philips KeraShine range offers the best of both worlds and creates professional-looking hairstyles for that salon-perfect look everyday. Be it silky straight for today, sexy curls for tomorrow's date or even wavy girlfriend's date, you can have a different style everyday!

Keratin is the magical component that keeps your hair looking sleek and sexy. Found in horns, hooves, claws and the baleen plates of whales, as well as our own nails, keratin is one of the strongest proteins. Made of long bendy peptide chains, keratin exists in hair strands -giving hair its supple, flexible texture and healthy sheen. It is also able to tolerate large temperatures fluctuations, protecting your hair from the biting cold or scorching sun.

Our hair's naturally positive charge makes the strands repel each other, giving it a frizzy look. Philips KeraShine styling tools feature a protective ceramic coating infused with Keratin for better care for your hair. The coating counters heat damage by feeding the hair with keratin even during styling, so you will always maintain a healthy level of keratin in your hair. Paired with the ionic care technology, it will help to give you smooth, glossy hair.

Philips KeraShine range of hair styling tools are infused with Keratin and Ions - the goodness hair needs.

Bare It All Confidently with CLEAR

Yours truly with CLEAR's Malaysia Agents of Confidence, Shaheizy Sam.

DANDRUFF!!! Have you ever felt insecure to wear black because of dandruff? Stop the embarrassment now with CLEAR! Let's bid farewell to aggravating white flakes hiding in between hair or at the tip of the shoulders as CLEAR launches one of the most advanced systems yet in treating and preventing recurring dandruff, as well as nourishing hair and scalp for continuous protection. With new packaging for CLEAR Women and CLEAR Men - currently the No.1 Men's hair Shampoo in the world. 

Unilever scientists have discovered scientific evidence that dandruff negatively impacts one's confidence in social situations in ways that can be noticed by others. Dandruff returning is a condition that plagues 9 out of 10 consumers, both men and women. Those affected with this condition will find various ways to conceal the problem, be it opting for light coloured attire, wearing hats or caps or extreme self-conscious with their appearance and many other ways to avoid people around them from noticing their dandruff issues. 

CLEAR Unveils New Technology for Improved Scalp Condition 

The scalp's defensive barrier can be compromised by everyday environmental and physiological pressures, allowing a prevalent fungus called Malassezia to populate its surface, breach its shields and cause skin cells to shed abnormally. The result is dandruff. Current anti-dandruff shampoos in the market are formulated and focused on combating Malassezia as the answer to consumers dandruff issues. The new CLEAR does more than that, as it also helps to nourish consumers hair and scalp for continuous protection. 

With 15 years of research & development at its scalp research institute in Paris, CLEAR is a comprehensive hair care range of shampoos that contain a clinically proven, breakthrough formula that activates the scalp's natural protection layer, to prevent dandruff from returning. With the understanding that both men and women's hair needs and situations are different, CLEAR has formulated different solutions for both men and women that specifically address their hair challenges. Formulated with Nutrium 10, a unique and powerful blend of deeply nourishing nutrients, CLEAR's proprietary technology system significantly improves scalp condition, helps restore its defensive barrier and delivers effective 'dandruff-proofing' proficiency. Clinically proven to help restore lipids, a vital structural component of cell membranes. 

CLEAR Women is the next generation of Anti-Dandruff treatments, no longer focused on merely eliminating Malessezia, but on helping to restore the scalp's integrity and fortify its natural protection to help prevent flakes from returning. Men's scalp, on the other hand are more prone to dandruff due to the differences in their lifestyle and environmental factors. It is physiologically disposed to higher sebum levels and tends to lose more protein than women. With that in mind, Unilever's CLEAR Scalp Experts have engineered a customised male-specific formulation to offer gender targeted solutions. It contains Bio Nutrium 10 that harnesses the power of patent-pending Climbazole that not only stops dandruff at its source, but is known to increase the production of protein, an essential building block for stronger skin cells, to help optimise the scalp's ability to protect itself.

CLEAR also on a mission to restore confidence and boldly advocate that people should have nothing to hide when it comes to their hair. CLEAR has started a global initiative to recruit 2 million consumers who are willing to take the pledge to confidence by adopting the healthy habit of using CLEAR shampoo on a daily basis. The campaign has also trickled down to Malaysia, where CLEAR is challenging local consumers to take a similar pledge. From 12 May to 12 July, consumers can log on to CLEAR Bare It All, upload the best-looking image of themselves on an existing template and submit the entry as pledge for the movement and kickstart their daily anti-dandruff shampoo usage regime.
