Panasonic Beauty Event with Bryan Gan Lao Shi

[Event]

I was up and Early on a Saturday morning(which is VERY UNCOMMON!) to attend a Panasonic x OMY.sg beauty Event with Special Guest Mr Bryan Gan (also known as Bryan Lao Shi to his fans). Thank to my SDD Rosental for inviting me. I've known bryan on facebook ever since I add friend him like at least afew months back, But I've never gotten to know him more or attend any of his talks, so I was really looking forward!

First Look, Where got look like a man in his Fourties? Oops! He shared some of his youth retaining tips with us along with the usage of Panasonic's Home Beauty Products! Make me want to buy la! Then I can start locking my youth from now! Hahaha! So If I 40 years old, people might say I look like my 20s. Wah shiok!

Here is the Panasonic Facial Roller(Model: EH-SP32-S421), It come with dual head, the one in the picture is the Diamond shaped Roller which is Great for firming the face but also good for relieving muscle strain on your necks. PLUS! Bryan Lao Shi Personal Tip, To roll on your calfs, especially for ladies who wear high heels alot! Haha, but remember to wipe the Roller with antiseptic or baby wipes first before you roll to clean the device.

The Panasonic Facial Roller has another Attachment head, a flatter one. This one Bryan advise to use it to promote circulation on the face and also tummy to reduce swelling or some pigmentation. Do already can become more pretty and healthier! Yay! Best of all, the price is below $200 ley! Very Wu Hua(Worth it)!

Next is the Panasonic Eye Warming Massager (Model: Eh-SW50). This one is very suitable for usage before sleep because it has slight warming effects and it creates a little bit of steam to moisture the eyes area, accompanied with slight pulsing vibrations that helps you to relax and fall asleep. Sibei good for those with dark eye circle problems, dry eyes problems or even people with problems falling asleep, I believe this can help ley!

Bryan got very excited when it came to this Panasonic Compact Facial Steamer (Model: EH-SA31) because he said that he has been emphasizing the importance of Facial Steaming on his blog since 2005! It was his first post on the blog and he wish everybody could just take 5 minutes off from their routine to do a simple facial steaming at least 1-2 time a week! 

And as Bryan is a certified Aromatherapist, he came up with a way to infuse essential oils to your facial steaming routine which can help you to relax and also do some calming effects to your skin. As you can see in the photo, he stick the facial cotton which has a drop of essential oil on to the facial steamer. So when the steam comes up, the essence will also travel up together with the steam to your face.

Tips for Facial Steaming from Bryan Lao Shi: 

1-2 Time a week

5-6 Minutes MAX!

Face your face 20cm away from the water so you don't scald your face

Splash with cold water after the steaming session to maximize effect.

Here's me trying out the Panasonic Eye Warmer Massager. At first I was a little worried because my face very big then cannot use, but ok ley! Hahaha! Just nice fit! And the colour very nice also la, Pink and white. Very Girly! But you can also ask your husband or boyfriend to do la, so both of you can become more pretty and handsome! hehe.

This thing here(I know what you are thinking, me too), is the Panasonic Facial Cool Putter(Model: EH-SQ10) which you can use after you use the facial steamer to achieve maximum effects! Or alternatively you can splash abit of cold water on your face after steaming la, cheaper but also effective. Haha.

Bryan's Class is very interactive and it did make me feel great on a saturday morning. I've learnt alot of things from him in the short 2 hours time and bryan is very genuine and generous in his teaching. He shared with us a few tips to better health, I shall share with you here.

Cornsilk Tea

Take a small bunch of corn silk(as pictured below) and boil in water for about 10 minutes, cool and drink. This is good for Bloatedness and water retention.

White Chrysanthemum Tea

Put 6 flowers in a cup of hot water, infuse for 10 minutes, then drink.

This is good for our eyes.

Yellow Chrysanthemum is for Headaches

Baby Bud Chrysanthemum is for overall health Detox

Wild Chrysanthemum is for Detox, But cannot everyday drink, too Liang for the body.

Dried Longan with Shell / Dry Black Sticky ones

Boil 3-4 Longans in the evening and drink it.

This is good for Insomia and Skin Radiance

Thai Longan is more for desserts like cheng teng la. 

And Bryan ended the session with some simple exercises. It was definitely a fruitful day!

Thank you to OMY and Panasonic for the wonderful invite although it made me wake up early on Saturday morning! Hahaha! And if you are interested, check out Rosental's blog post for Discount!

Know Your Flow Girl!

Today's Post is Totally for the Ladies Out There, Yea you mah girllllll! It's gonna be about your monthly problem called - PERIOD/MENSUS/ BIG AUNT/ TIME OF THE MONTH etc. So If you are a man, and you wish to read on, you are a welcome to understand more about our monthly woes.

What I would like to share today is that:

Heavy periods are anything but Rare or Normal

For most women, menstruation is just part of life, Cramps, Bleeding from time to time down there throughout the day, till the day it all ends. But for women suffering from Heavy Menstrual Bleeding(HMB), it is much more than that and can severely affect their quality of life.

I went for a event the other day where we got to learn more about HMB and I'm going to share some fun facts with you all! We even had the La Senza experts coming in to teach us on proper ways to make our breast comfortable during the time of the month. Yes.

I believe that each of us girls have experienced Pre-menstrual Syndrome(PMS) and sometimes we really wonder if those damn hormones are really playing with us or is it just in our head.. 

But It's TRUE!! PMS is only 1 of the few symptoms we girls face every month. Period can affect our quality of life quite drastically actually. It affects our attendance at work or school, our choice of clothes, our daily activities and also our Sex Life! In conclusion hor, I believe that having period will bring DOWN our self esteem and bring UP our self - consciousness lor! And It is just worst when you have HMB Every Single Month!

So how do you determine if you have HMB?

You Period may be abnormal if you have like most of the Experiences stated below at the "Amount" Row! *Changing of pads means that every 2 hours, your pad is fully soaked kind ah, not like the normal hygiene change, different hor!

Growth of lumps in your uterus might also be causes of HMB, If you have constant Bad cramps that affect your daily life activities, please go seek a doctor's opinion!

And What can we do to ease the pain(literally) of the month:

♥ Keep Track of your menstrual cycle

♥ Exercise Regularly

(Not only when you are having your period then you exercise)

♥ Have a Hot Water Bottle or Maybe Just your favourite Cushion/Pillow

(To hug on to when the cramps gets real bad)

♥ A Massage session to relieve the stress

(A little massage doesn't hurt, and its good for stress relieve too!)

If not, Just Indulge in food, In my opinion, Food always helps!

We were treated to a 4 Course Dinner at OTTO Ristorante, Yum yums!

I had a very fun night with the girls and I learnt so much more about our period! 

Stay Beautiful! ♥

With Love, M♥

Pomi-T Launch @ Au Petit Salut

I was invited to the Pomi-T Launch held at Au Petit Salut in Dempsey and I must say I'm really impressed(with the product and also the place!). Many people like you and me, we do not have the time to prepare healthy food for our daily consumption, and sometimes cooking will result in loss of nutritional value in our food, therefore we look for alternatives such as health supplements.

Of course, with so many health supplements in the market, which one is the best? Or should I say the most beneficial and most natural one? Pomi-T is completely natural containing no colours, preservatives, flavourings, bulking or chelating agents. It just contains:

Broccoli (Brassica Oleracea) florets and stacks – 150mg per capsule

Turmeric (Curcuma Longa) root – 150mg per capsulePomegranate (Punica Granatum L) seed and whole fruit – 150mg
 per capsuleGreen Tea (Camellia Sinesis) leaf 5:1 – 30mg equivalent to 150mg 
per capsuleGelatine capsule

That's It, No additional preservatives, colour or flavouring.

It's combination of natural ingredients has been carefully researched in a study backed by United Kingdom’s National Cancer Research Network and formulated by 
Professor Robert Thomas, a leading British oncologist.

Why these 4 ingredients you ask?

Fruit

Pomegranate has natural antioxidant properties that inhibit the uncontrolled growth of cells by suppressing the enzymes in the intestine and liver that convert pro-carcinogens into cancer-causing agents, and causes cells to self-terminate. It also helps to reduce the migration of abnormal cells and aids the regeneration of healthy ones instead.

Vegetable

Broccoli slows the growth of malignant cells. Regular broccoli intake regulates genes linked to abnormal cell growth and promotes genes associated with the suppression of abnormal cells.

Spice

Curcumin, which gives turmeric its yellow colour, has anti-inflammatory properties that inhibit the growth of abnormal stem cells, consequentially reducing the growth of abnormal cells and prevents the spread of damaged cells without harming healthy cells.

Leaf

Extensive research into green tea has shown that it helps the self-termination process of unhealthy cells. It inhibits the spread of damaged cells, retains good cells, and suppresses the formation of blood vessels that supply abnormal cells with nourishment.

We were treated with a Pomi-T ingredients focused dinner menu by Au Petit Salut.

Potato, Broccoli and Tumeric Souffle
