BBE1117 should mean best before year November 2017.



The shampoo is yellowish clear gel with smell of rosemary, cypress and citrus.  I find it really refreshing since I do love smell of rosemary.  It does lathered but not much considering that this doesn't contain sodium laureth sulfate which is harmful.  It has soft foam since it is made of natural ingredients and rest assure since a lot of foam doesn't mean it actually clean the scalp better.

I find it cleanses the hair well and doesn't leave residue on the hair.  It makes my hair fluffy without the use of conditioner as well.  I think this natural shampoo products are really great even for the whole family.  My family members love it very much.  It is also easy to carry just this one bottle of shampoo for the whole family during travelling =) .

REVIEW ON LINDEN LEAVES ABSOLUTE DREAMS BODY OIL

Linden Leaves is very famous for their body oil with real ingredients in it. One of their most famous one would be the Memories body oil which has a stalk of rose inside the bottle.  Of course it is more unique to receive a bottle with flowers that will not wilt.

What I have here for today is the Absolute Dreams body oil which contains lavender flowers in it.  Of course it is not as romantic as receiving a stalk of rose but I prefer lavender for the relaxing properties and you can use it as a bath oil or as massage oil.

Absolute dreams body oil comes in gold yellowish liquid and it is quite thick but the application is easy and absorb well into the skin leaving no trace of stickiness.  The smell is absolutely soothing. I love the lavender scent that is not overpowering.  My skin is still lightly scented with lavender even after few hours.

Since it contains vitamin E, it will help with dry skin and also help to prevent stretch marks. I think it would make a useful gift during special occasions such as anniversary, birthdays, Valentines or Christmas exchange.

REVIEW ON MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE


Hi beauties,Some time ago, I put up news about Melvita Nectar bright brightening concentrate Here .

I think it is an Asian thing where we really dislike 'tanning' and 'burning' our skin for darker tone because we prefer lighter skin even if we have olive skin.  Of course, I do not mean bleaching our skin to be as white as sheet.

Asian loves fair skin tone and healthy porcelain skin.  So, it is common that many people here like brightening products to even the skin tone and correct those dark spots.  Regardless of age, dark spots can form in any type of skin so it is best to use brightening products to help with it.

What I have here the famous French brand, Melvita Nectar Bright Brightening Concentrate for review today.

MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE
Melvita Nectar Bright Brightening Concentrate



Brightening Concentrate – Targeted corrective action


The Melvita Brightening Concentrate brings together a complex of 5 white flowers* with illuminating properties and a brown alga extract with brightening properties, for complete corrective action on uneven skin tone.


Usage Instructions: Every morning and evening, after applying essence and before your moisturizer,put on a few drops of Brightening Concentrate using the dropper applicator. Focus on areas of uneven skin tone. 

Tested under dermatological supervision.Non-comedogenic.For adult use only.

99% of the total ingredients are from natural origin.

53% of the total ingredients are from Organic Farming.

The box is white and has really nice printing.  It is best that one keep the products inside the box to avoid the UV light's ray changing the content.

Ingredients for MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE

The bottle is opaque white and it is made from glass so be extra careful not to drop it to the floor from a very high position.  Other than that, it is quite sturdy.

There is also the silver coloured dropper for easy application.




What I could say is this concentrate is closer to ampoule than essence or serum because of the texture and performance from this pure white bottle.  The concentrate smell super amazing with floral scent that soothing and calming to the senses.  One only need about two drops for each application to see results. The clear concentrate texture is thicker than water and absorb well into the skin and is not sticky at all.
MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE
MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE

One can use this as a spot treatment for part of the face that needs more brightening up and to lighten the dark spots on the face.  I use it on my stubborn dark spots I have been having it for years and it is lightening up gradually.  The results probably look more obvious on the photos because of lighting and because my dark spots are not that dark.  Red acne scars and lighter colour will fade faster.  Results might varies with your type of skin too.

**Words of caution is do not apply it on skin that is still erupting with acne or pimples. Brightening products is not meant to treat acne so choose the right products for your skin.
** Not for those allergic to lemon


Overall, if you are looking for brightening, gentle, organic fragrance, organic and natural products with Ecocert, then do try Melvita Nectar brightening concentrate.





Melvita Nectar Bright Brightening Concentrate retails at RM230 for 30ml.

NEWS:MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE LAUNCH IN MAY 2015

CORRECT AND PREVENT THE APPEARANCE OF DARK SPOTS WITH MELVITA’S NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE


High-altitude meadows, wild moors, secluded woodlands…After years of exploring untouched natural areas and seeking out plants with remarkable benefits, leading French organic skincare brand, Melvitahas put together a unique bouquet composed of five white flowers. Each one holds a secret to maintaining its radiance. Some of the flowers only bloom when sheltered from the sun’s rays. Others close their petals the minute they feel the patter of raindrops. Together, these five white flowers form a complex with brightening properties.


:MELVITA NECTAR BRIGHT BRIGHTENING CONCENTRATE




Melvita has placed this illuminating complex at the heart of its Nectar Bright range. Over the past two years, as many as five Nectar Bright products had been introduced in the market. 
This May, Melvita is proud to launch another new product - Nectar Bright Brightening Concentrate, a targeted action serum that combines the properties of 5 white flowers complex, together with a brown algae AscophyllumNodosumextract, to CORRECT existing dark spots, PREVENT future appearance of dark spots and PROTECT the skin against endogenous and exogenous stress.



WHY DO DARK SPOTS APPEAR ON THE SKIN?

Over-exposure to UV radiation, as well as the passing years, can disrupt the process responsible fornatural skin colouration, known as melanogenesis. This complex cellular process is stimulated bylight: the more the skin is exposed to the sun, the more melanocytes produce melanin to protectit (causing the skin to tan). However, with age, the production of melanocytes can becomedisorganized and some keratinocytes end up containing too much melanin. This, combinedwith a slower rate of cell renewal, leads to the appearance of dark spots in certain areas.


INTELLIGENT FIVE WHITE FLOWERS HAVE THE CAPACITY TO HIDE FROM THE SUN TO PRESERVE THEIR RADIANCE

On top of the 5 white flowers complex with brightening properties, the new Brightening Concentrate formula contains a new extract in order to truly target dark spots. 

This extract is obtained from the brown alga Ascophyllum Nodosumand it acts at 4 levels of skin pigmentation, for whitening and brightening effect: 



AFTER ONE MONTH OF USE,
The complexion looks more even for
8 out of 10 women.***


AFTER TWO MONTHS OF USE,
Pigmentation irregularities appear evened out and the skin looks more beautiful.




USAGE &EFFICACY TESTS***

After 8 weeks of use

Dark spots number (on the entire face): -19%

Dark spots colour intensity: -17%

Skin brightness: +31%



Usage Test Results

The jar is made from glass. It is quite sturdy and heavy.  The vintage design has a nice warm feeling to it.


Aloe Vera is an ingredient known to heal skin and it is used since ancient Egypt. However, do check if you have allergic to aloe vera. I can’t use fresh aloe vera from the plant itself so I prefer the one already processed.


PHB Skin Restore Gel has a nice calming citrus smell to it. The texture of the gel feels more like pudding which is very light with a cooling effect even without refrigerating it. The gel dries down really fast without any stick feeling!

One can use the PHB Skin Restore Gel to calm sunburn or redness on the skin which is especially effective.  Just apply it thick on the face as face mask to reduce the redness on the face. After all it is organic and one jar can last quite a few months.  I think it is something that every house should have for emergency incase of burn or even sunburn.

NEWS:MELVITA BEE FARM VISIT &APICOSMA ORGANIC SOOTHING CREAM PRESS LAUNCH


April is Earth Month, and is the perfect occasion to reflect on how to protect our planet. Melvita recently celebrated their third locally-based green initiative event organizing a fun-filled media visit to the bee farm, to raise awareness on the importance of bees in maintaining the balance of the earth’s ecology and of course, to promote beekeeping. 


MELVITA BEE FARM VISIT &APISCOSMA SOOTHING CREAM PRESS LAUNCH


MELVITA BEE FARM VISIT &APISCOSMA SOOTHING CREAM PRESS LAUNCH




Leading French organic skincare brand Melvita was founded in 1983 by French biologist and beekeeper, Bernard Chevilliat. Besides being one of the pioneers in the world to gain the French ECOCERT and BIO certificates for organic products, it has been leading the world in setting trends of organic beauty care, with its unique formulas developed using more than 900 types of quality natural organic ingredients.

The name Melvita came from two latin words “mel” meaning honey and vita “life” . It refers to the extraordinary work of bees, which represent a coming-together of the plant and animal kingdoms.


It is known to be the organic beauty care brand with the largest range of organically certified product series in the world. Melvita’s organic products include skincare, men’s skincare, hair care, body care, mum & baby, and beehive products. Its 3 signature products include Floral Waters, Plant Oils and Honey series. All Melvita’s products are certified by ECOCERT France, and fulfill the standards of COSMEBIO France (Professional Association for Ecological and Organic Cosmetics). Melvita’s organic products have a high ratio of organic ingredients.



We believe that using organic products is a crucial approach to maintain the earth’s future ecosystem, and insist on:

NO paraffin, silicone, PEG (polyethylene glycol) or PPG (polypropylene glycol), ethoxylated products, parabens or phenoxyethanol, formaldehyde or chlorine derivatives, synthetic fragrances or colourings. Protesting against any tests on animals.Using recyclable packaging to the best we can.



In recent years, reports have shown that bee population all over the world has dropped dramatically. Ecological experts have also warned the ecology of bees will have a great impact on the future of plants or humans. Due to the close relationship between Melvita and bees and its pro-active approach in promoting the awareness of bee ecology, Melvita Foundation has been established to help local beekeepers, bee ecology research, and organic farming from different countries, to further increase the awareness of the public towards bee conservation, organic farming and environmental protection. Care for nature, professionalism in the organic industry, and environmental preservation are the THREE main philosophies of Melvita.



So the visit to the Happy Bee Farm at Genting Highlands is one of the efforts to promote awareness in the importance to make the Earth a better place for the bees.



One of the global initiative by the Melvita foundation is a project lead by Friends of the Earth in London, United Kingdom. The campaign is called “The Bee Cause” with the objectives to encourage bees to live in the city with creating a haven for the bees but as providing more food and encourage locals to plant more wild flowers.

Just in two years, the objective was already achieved. About 70 bee worlds were created with 3,276m² for bees and other pollinating insects.



What is ECOCERT? What is BIO?

ECOCERT is an organic certification organization founded in France in 1991. Its Ecological and Organic Charter is considered as the standards of the organic industry. Its certification standards are extremely stringent, completely prohibiting disputable ingredients and most synthetic preservatives in products. Detailed analysis is also carried out. This is to ensure the ingredients, place of origins, production methods; refining methods, quality preservation and other aspects fulfil relevant eco-friendly organic standards before being approved for certification. BIO is the certification dedicated to beauty care products, to certify there is at least 95% of the total ingredients are from natural origin, and at least 95% of the total plant-based ingredients are organic, while at least 10% of the total ingredients are from organic farming.*Generally, beauty care products contain 50% – 80% water. Water cannot be listed as certified-organic ingredients.


 
APISCOSMA SOOTHING CREAM PRESS LAUNCH



To create this pollinator-friendly garden, Melvita has thoughtfully selected Lavender, Mint, Roses and Hibiscus plants. These bee-friendly plants are amongst the signature ingredients of Melvita, which can be found in:


Lavender Floral Water, Lavender Shea Butter, Gentle Purifying Shampoo, Extra-soft Foot Cream, Fresh Breath Toothpaste, Organic Rose Beauty Mist, Rose Floral Water, Rose Cranberry Cream Soap, Rose Extraordinary Water, Wild Rose Soap Bar, Nectar Pur range of products, Rose Nectar range of products, Pulpe de Rose range of products and Floral Bouquet range of products.

Majority of the products from Melvita are made from honey.  Besides that the Apicosma Soothing Cream smells really good and has a soft silky texture.
The nice fragrance is made from organic ingredients that will cause any allergic.  For the first time, Melvita blended a concoction of fresh notes from organic plant ingredients and came up with this pleasant scent.

REVIEW ON ANTIPODES WORSHIP SERUM-ORGANIC ANTI AGEING SERUM



Do you care about looking older than you really are?


Yes, I do. I admit I am vain. While I won’t go for drastic measure like surgery, “have a emotionless face forever” or those Bathory blood bath*terrifying* just to make sure that I keep those wrinkles at bay, I very much willing to use skincare products to just make sure I look younger.

Now that I am going 30 years old *OMG*, serum has been a staple in my beauty skincare besides my other essential beauty care products. It is a MUST and not longer an option unless you are willing to spend on much more expensive procedure later.

So, I was so excited to be among few to try this awesome new serum from Antipodes and am really glad that I do!


Before going moving into this Antipodes Worship serum, let us get to know the brand HERE.
In Malaysia, TNS Skin Lab introduced Antipodes, New Zealand certified organic skincare brand to Malaysia market in 2011 and has quickly has a strong consumer acceptance and support in Malaysia.
Antipodes will launch its first major new product for 2015 – “Worship” in New Zealand and hopefully in Malaysia too, on April 1, 2015.

ANTIPODES WORSHIP SERUM-ORGANIC ANTI AGEING SERUM
ANTIPODES WORSHIP SERUM-ORGANIC ANTI AGEING SERUM




Just like the best-selling “Hosanna” and “Apostle” serums, 

“Worship” is a water based serum with a very high concentration of plant-active ingredients to deliver potent results to the deeper layers of our skin. “Worship” is infused with a powerful cocktail of super antioxidant fruit extracts including raspberry, boysenberry, blackcurrant, acai berry, coffee berry, kiwi fruit and Antipodes’ trademark Vinanza grape seed extract.

 Totally oil free and fully absorbed in seconds, this powerful fruit cocktail provides the most effective daily antioxidant protection for your skin against UV and environmental free radical damage (“oxidative stress”) that cause “premature” skin aging. 

 Independent in-vitro investigation by Trinity Bioactives in New Zealand has established that “Worship” can inhibit oxidative stress in human skin cell by up to 90% for up to 15 hours. This is a remarkable result by any means!




Vinanza Grape.

Its many beauty benefits include assisting your skin with hydrating, smoothing and firming, as well as preventing moisture loss. For your skin it is also anti-wrinkle, healing and hydrating, smoothing and firming, antibacterial and astringent. * Independent Study by New Zealand Extracts

DAILY RITUAL: Worship your face, neck and decolletage by dispensing on your fingertips and gently rubbing into the skin before moisturising

Suited To All Skin Conditions

It comes inside a box and it vegetarian approved. Keep the bottle inside the box to avoid the UVB and UVA light from the sunlight. Recommended to keep below 25 Celsius as to preserve the efficiency inside the bottle. After all, antioxidant from fruits can be easily destroyed by sunlight and heat.


The ingredients in this bottle of serum are mostly berries which is just like applying a bottle of vitamin goodies on your skin.

Please ignore the glow on my forehead.  It is not oil.  The serum is a bit brownish and it is water based.

ANTIPODES WORSHIP SERUM-ORGANIC ANTI AGEING SERUM

Worship serum get absorbed into the skin very fast leaving no trace of residue on the skin.  It also smell heavenly of natural berries on the skin.

I think it is really a treat for the skin as the skin does feel very much hydrated and soft while I am using this.  My breakouts from having too much of New Year goodies also slowly disappearing as the antioxidant in this serum helps to heal the skin really fast. The redness disappeared very fast too.


To avoid influencing the results of the serum, I didn't use other kind of serum nor make changes into my usually skincare routine except for adding this. =)  See the results for yourself.  Would sure recommend this for anyone who love organic water based serum.  It has all the good thing in one bottle.

Now, I know why so many fell in love with this organic brand because it is sure one of the best awesome Organic brand around. Excuse me while I go and Worship my skin > <  .




I think some might be thinking what is the differences between this Worship serum compared to their other serums which are awesome and much rave about.  Here is the breakdown in layman terms and which serum you should choose according to your skin concern.  Don't worry as the trio are water based and it is very light.



1.  Antipodes Worship Serum-Organic Anti Ageing Serum
- serum to protect skin against UV and environmental free radical damage (“oxidative stress”) that cause “premature” skin aging.
Skin type: Especially good for aging skin and for daily protection

2.  Antipodes Organic Hosanna H20 Intensive Skin-Plumping Serum
