Mouse Mommy Treats: awareness

Have An Organic Pampering Session With Botaneco Garden Combines Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey!

Monday, October 29, 2018

Mouse mommy is a user of Botaneco Garden Trio Oil range haircare series. Glad that Guardian Malaysia has introduced the Botaneco Garden Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey range, a nature inspired solution that deeply moisturises and protects dry skin and hair with the benefits of traditional home remedies[1],[2] minus the mess.

Of course, mouse mommy would love to try out this new range!

Themed ‘Be A Mess Free Beauty’ the launch held at A Cut Above Academy, highlighted the messy challenges of preparing DIY beauty remedies using chia seed and honey in a light-hearted take on YouTube tutorials, while sharing the benefits of the two ingredients for the real problem of dry skin and dry hair.

Awww… turn Chia Seed Oil and Honey into my favourite Botaneco Garden Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey range, that able to deep moist and protect entire family members!

Air-conditioned environments, showers, blow drying hair on high heat and harsh personal care products that do not suit the skin and hair condition of the user can all contribute to dryness[3]. As we get older, skin loses the dewiness of youth, and our scalp produces less oils resulting in dry hair[4]∙[5], same goes to mouse mommy too.

With so many factors arrayed against achieving the holy grail of dewy, smooth skin, and lustrous, shiny locks, what can you do?

Glad that the new Botaneco Garden Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey range offers a solution for eco-conscious person who prefer a gentle yet effective personal care range.

It includes the aptly named Deep Moist and Protect shampoo, conditioner, hair oil, body wash, body lotion and hand cream for daily hair and skin care focused on moisturisation and protection of dry to normal skin and hair.

Botaneco Garden Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey Deep Moist and Protect Body Wash 500ml is suitable for dry skin as it helps to nourish and protect the skin against daily aggressions, while soothing the skin.

It is blended with CoQ to help improve the appearance of wrinkles and promotes smooth and supple skin.

The range is formulated with 100% eco-certified organic chia seed oil from Germany to restore skin and hair’s natural moisture barrier and to retain moisture, and enriched with organic honey extract from France that is high in minerals, vitamins and anti-oxidants.

The combination of 100% eco-certified organic chia seed oil and organic honey extract provides moisturisation and hydration that is ideal for dry to normal skin types. It is dermatologically tested and proven. It is not tested on animals.

The entire Botaneco Garden range of 58 products, including the new Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey line is available only at Guardian Malaysia. Mouse mommy loves the Botaneco Garden personal care range so much as in the price range is really affordable and great in quality for organic series products. Love it!

The Botaneco Garden Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey range is priced from RM 9.34 for the Deep Moist and Protect hand cream to RM18.77 for the Deep Moist and Protect shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion.

Guardian Health & Beauty Sdn. Bhd, Brand Manager, Health & Beauty Own Brand, Malaysia & Brunei, Ms Michelle Yeap explained that the Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey range was developed to deliver mess-free products based on global cosmeceutical trends, and the needs of Guardian’s customers in the region.

“Nature-inspired, deeply moisturising and protective solutions for dry skin and dry hair are high on our customers’ wish list. We studied numerous eco-certified and organic ingredients before finding the unique combination of 100% eco-certified chia seed oil and organic honey extract that provided the effective moisturising and hydration and benefits for dry to normal skin,” Ms Yeap said.

“Our core consumers enjoy the clean beauty of DIY home preparations but are put off by the amount of time, effort and cost involved in do-it-yourself remedies. The preparation followed by the clean-up of the kitchen and bath after is a workout in itself! There is also the risk of using the wrong recipe at home where the ratio of the ingredients do not deliver good results.”

The Botaneco Garden team demonstrated the possible DIY fails and messiness of preparing chia seed and honey beauty aids for skin and hair in the Botaneco Garden Mess Free Beauty YouTube studio.

“For the Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey range Botaneco Garden put in the goodness of two functional ingredients to give our consumers an affordable full personal care line that works for dry to normal skin types. It is dermatologically tested and proven so that you can be a mess-free beauty. Use it straight from the bottle or the tube, it is gentle enough for daily use,” she added.

Guests at the Botaneco Garden Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey launch experienced the mess-free benefits of this line through a full salon hair wash, condition and blow dry service, followed by a manicure with hand massage provided at A Cut Above Academy.

“We tested the Botaneco Garden Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey shampoo, conditioner, hair oil, body lotion and hand cream ahead of this event to familiarise, and the results were impressive. The shampoo does not produce much foam which is a good thing as foam can strip hair of natural oils, drying it out. The conditioner increased manageability and reduced frizz. The hair oil is a star that makes styling easier and natural looking without weighing down hair,” said Mr Peter Wong, Head of the A Cut Above Academy.

There are five product lines under the Botaneco Garden brand namely Inca Inchi which uses Inca Inchi and Aloe Vera as key ingredients, the premium Organic Argan and Olive Oil range, Botaneco Garden Baby which uses eco-certified chamomile and colloidal oatmeal for a gentle and effective baby range; the Trio Oil range which uses 100% eco-certified oil - Babassu oil, Baobab oil and Chufa oil, and the new Organic Chia Seed Oil and Honey range.

Dengue Awareness Campaign Together With with CARRIE MOZZIBUSTER

Thursday, October 25, 2018

Nowadays raining everyday, mouse mommy was spotted many mosquitos around. Parents should be aware that dengue is unpredictable and the only way is to safeguard the family against mosquitoes at all times especially for babies and kids.

Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia or Ministry of Health Malaysia (‘MOH’) is constantly stressing the importance of prevention of diseases as sometimes when diseases are discovered, it is too late for a cure. This goes for mosquito borne diseases prevention as well.

Latest statistics accumulated from 31^st December 2017 till 6^th June 2018 by Bilik Gerakan Denggi Kebangsaan CPRC, Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia; recorded a total of 26,209 cases of dengue with 37 cases resulting in death. This averages out to whopping 5240 cases per month. Besides dengue, there were also more than 67 cases of Chikungunya disease reported during the same period.

Dengue fever and Chikungunya are diseases that spread easily through Aedes mosquito bites. The spread can be minimized if everyone works together in preventing the spread by eradicating mosquito breeding grounds and ensuring the mosquito prevention steps are taken.

Some take it lightly as they think that dengue fever is curable and people have survived the disease, hence there is no need to worry; little do they know that if the disease leads to severe dengue or dengue hemorrhagic fever, it can be a life-threatening situation that they will be facing.

This is in-line with the recommendation by WHO in its factsheet[1] protection against mosquito bites is a key measure in preventing mosquito-borne diseases. MOH also similarly recommends the use of mosquito repellents in the prevention of mosquitoes[2].

One of the effective ways of keeping mosquitoes away is with the application of mosquito repellent. CARRIE MOZZIBUSTER Mosquito Repellent Lotion and the CARRIE MOZZIBUSTER Mosquito Repellent Lotion with UV Protection, have been tested to be able to repel mosquitoes up to 8 hours. Besides that, the product has undergone careful product development and registration with the governing bodies namely Pesticide Board, Department of Agriculture and Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM) ensuring it is tested and certified hence parents can rest assured that the product complies to product safety standards.

CARRIE MOZZIBUSTER Mosquito Repellent Lotion can be used daily for indoor protection. CARRIE MOZZIBUSTER Mosquito Repellent Lotion with UV comes with sun protection for outdoors assurance. The CARRIE MOZZIBUSTER Mosquito Repellent Lotions are specially formulated for application on children skin and the lotions are also certified HALAL.

Mouse mommy will apply the CARRIE MOZZIBUSTER Mosquito Repellent Lotion with UV for kids and family when we go for family run and outdoor picnic. We are looking forward to join next challenge - family camping too!
