Global Handwashing Day Together With Lifebuoy !

 

In line with the goal of Global Handwashing Day (GHD) on 15th October 2022, Lifebuoy, the world’s number one germ protection soap dedicated to promoting healthy hygiene habits, launched a programme “C Untuk Cuci Tangan: Train the Trainers” at The Grounds KL to reinforce good handwashing habits among the school children of Jabatan Kemajuan Masyarakat (KEMAS). The purpose of the “C Untuk Cuci Tangan: Train the Trainers” programme is to not only share the necessary handwashing skills with the teachers of KEMAS but also to enable them to then teach those skills to the students.

Under this programme, Unilever Malaysia through Lifebuoy partnered with Guardian to donate hygiene kits containing essential daily items such as Lifebuoy C Untuk Cuci Tangan Guidebook, Lifebuoy Antibacterial Handwash and Bar Soap, and antibacterial wipes from Guardian to Tabika KEMAS, to promote good hand hygiene and help minimize the risk of infection among school students.

The launch of the programme was officiated by Yang Berusaha Tuan Asri Bin Saleh, Director of KEMAS Wilayah Persekutuan, Ms. Lenny Chuah, Personal Care Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand (MYSGTH) Lead & Head of Malaysia, Unilever Malaysia, and Ms. Jessica Barnabas, Personal Care Head of Department, Guardian Malaysia.

Yang Berusaha Tuan Asri Bin Saleh, Director of KEMAS Wilayah Persekutuan shared, “The Ministry of Rural Development through KEMAS always emphasizes the aspect of personal hygiene and safety among the students of KEMAS. 

KEMAS is proud to collaborate with the private sector such as Lifebuoy on conducting such a handwashing programme for the first time. For instance, teachers who undergo the training offered by Lifebuoy Malaysia will be able to guide school children on the proper ways to wash their hands more efficiently. Indeed, teachers play crucial roles to encourage the good habit of handwashing among children from an early age.

“On top of that, the hygiene kits donated by Lifebuoy and Guardian will help to establish a first-class mindset of emphasizing personal hygiene among preschool students. With the rising of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD), students will be reminded to utilize the hygiene kits available in school compounds to keep their hands clean from time to time. Ultimately, this is one of the good examples of how the public-private partnership takes place to ensure a healthier and cleaner environment for our future generation.”

Mouse mommy is also noted the importance of hand hygiene and happy to support this handwashing practise into our daily lifestyle.

Lenny Chuah, Personal Care Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand (MYSGTH) Lead & Head of Malaysia, Unilever Malaysia said, “As a company that prioritizes the core aspect of improving health and hygiene to protect lives and livelihoods, Unilever through Lifebuoy Malaysia hopes that the launching of the “C Untuk Cuci Tangan: Train the Trainers” programme will offer valuable insights and perspectives on championing the cause of hand hygiene education among school children. 

We are proud to be working with KEMAS and Guardian to increase awareness among preschoolers on the importance of washing hands to keep germs at bay. In line with our purpose to save lives, our programme will empower mothers with such awareness, knowledge, and information to help ensure that their children fall ill a little less often.

“To reaffirm the support for the United Nation’s 2030 Sustainable Development Goals which aims to drive positive behavioral change around hand hygiene habits amongst children, Lifebuoy creates the theme song Mari Lebih Sihat! which is sung in local languages from various ethnic groups in our country to create the most inclusive hygiene education in Malaysia. Currently, the second phase of the Mari Lebih Sihat initiative will continue this goal to drive handwashing behavior change among children.”

To further formulate effective ways in cultivating handwashing habits among school children, Lifebuoy has partnered with schools to promote the fundamentals of hand hygiene from a child’s earliest years with its Little Chief Education Officer (CEO) initiatives. The idea stems from the understanding that children are more likely to instill this behavior when they are influenced by their peers. 

Thus, Lifebuoy believes that such an initiative will accelerate the impact of hand-hygiene education by improving students’ attitudes towards learning, fostering a more personalized learning experience, engaging students through cooperative learning, and leading to high retention of information.

Lenny Chuah added, “Lifebuoy believes that explaining and instilling the importance of developing lifelong hand hygiene habits among children is the best approach to preventing the spread of infectious illnesses in schools. Since the commencement of Lifebuoy’s outreach programs in 2015 across Malaysia, we have reached 536,113 kids aged 4 to 9. Driven by a larger purpose, we want to help 1 million people develop good handwashing habits by 2025.

Lifebuoy is committed to continuous innovation in its products to double down on the fight against germs. 

More recently, the brand also introduced the new Lifebuoy Fresh Coconut Water & Mint Antibacterial Bodywash and Lemon Fresh Antibacterial Handwash to their existing range. 

This will play a significant role to realize the brand’s vision to make hand washing commonplace and help the community stay safe, fresh, and germ-free.

Eczema Awareness Month With Buds Organics X POKOKS

 

A baby’s skin is an extremely important and delicate organ that requires the best protection from the outside world. Babies also feel at their most comfortable when their skin is healthy and moisturised. Therefore, full attention and specific care is required for babies and their skin, to ensure the little ones are happy and cheerful. However, many babies also suffer from sensitive skin which calls for parents to go the extra mile for their little bud, especially when it comes to eczema. This also leads to parents enduring a range of psychological effects, including anxiety and lack of sleep, in a bid to find solutions to provide relief for their precious ones. 

Eczema is an ongoing skin problem that causes dry, red, itchy skin, with almost one in five children affected by this. In conjunction with Eczema Awareness Month, Buds Organics aims to provide Malaysian parents with the solutions needed for complete organic management of sensitive and dry skin, with a steroid-free and certified organic range of effective and gentle products. 

This includes two new additions to its Buds Super Soothing Organics range: the Super Soothing Deep Moisturising Cream and Super Soothing Intensive Repair Cream.

The Buds Super Soothing Organics range is developed specifically for babies and kids with severely dry and sensitive skin. The range provides complete care that goes beyond moisturisation and steroid free. The collection now offers a complete range of eczema care products that consumers can choose according to the severity of their child's skin condition. Therefore, from severe, cracked skin, to itchy rashes and maintenance care after healing, there is a product with the right levels of efficacy for everyone. Formulated for different stages, the winning holistic formula of EASYclear™ + Prebiotic is completed with the following products:

Super Soothing Hydrating Cleanser: for daily cleansing and hydration. 

Super Soothing Rescue Lotion: for mild eczema, dry and sensitive skin. 

Super Soothing Deep Moisturising Cream (NEW): for recovering skin which requires daily deep moisturisation with much-needed soothing, protective and preventive abilities for keeping the skin healthy, to prevent flare-ups. 

Super Soothing Intensive Repair Cream (NEW): for severe eczema and overly irritated skin that needs intensive care and extra relief. This highly effective cream is packed with EASYclear™ + Prebiotic blend to repair and soothe acute, dry, sensitive and irritated skin. 

The EASYclear™ + Prebiotic formulation which features blends of clinically-proven plant actives, is developed on the basis of a complete treatment approach with four essential functions – to calm itchiness and soothe inflammation, to protect the skin from moisture loss and harmful bacteria, to repair and promote skin healing and regeneration, and to prevent future flare-ups by strengthening skin's health. The star ingredients used in the EASYclear™ + Prebiotic include:

Calms: Blackcurrant Seed Oil, Balloon Vine Extract, Sunflower Oil Concentrate, Aloe Vera Leaf Juice, Shiso Leaf Extract to serve as antihistamine and anti-inflammatory agent and to suppress allergic reaction. 

Protects: Totarol, Tea Tree Oil, Vitamin E, Olive Oil Extract which act as anti-bacterial agents to protect skin from harmful radicals that can disrupt skin's healing process. Meanwhile, Organic Jojoba, Organic Sunflower, Shea Butter and Sesame Oil form a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss and excessive water loss.

Repairs: Inca Inchi Oil, Argan Oil and Shea Butter Extract to promote skin recovery regeneration. 

Prevents: Prebiotic Alpha-Glucan Oligosaccharide to strengthen skin barrier, stimulate growth of friendly bacteria whilst preventing flare ups.

Additionally, all Buds Organics products are ECOCERT certified and made with natural, plant-derived ingredients with the highest quality, ethically sourced and sustainably farmed ingredients, making it safe for babies and children.

“The journey of treating sensitive skin for little ones has always been very close to our hearts, as my brother’s children were born with severe eczema. His research, development, and love for his children to help provide relief for sensitive skin was exactly what led to our very first Buds Organics range in 2004. 

Today, Buds Organics remains committed to providing the best care and protection for families dealing with dry and sensitive skin for their babies and children. We want to continue giving parents a peace of mind, allowing families to explore the world and spend precious moments together, without the worry of missing out on beautiful memories that will be forever cherished,” said Soo Siew Peng, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Buds Organics.

In conjunction with Eczema Awareness Month, Buds Organics also had a fashion show to raise awareness on effectively dealing with eczema. Fabrics play a vital role in ensuring the skin is kept comfortable all day long, with natural and breathable fabrics being the go-to option to help minimise skin irritation. 

Held on 13th October 2022, the fashion show featured kids and their parents walking down the runway dressed in POKOKS apparel. The local apparel brand is known for its take on embracing culture with modern design, using high quality fabrics to help babies and children stay comfortable throughout the day.

Buds Organics also hosted a lifestyle photo exhibition of parents with kids affected by eczema, as a way to honour their journeys while breaking the negative stigmas often associated with eczema. 

This was all part of Buds Organics’ aim to highlight families living their best, meaningful lives without being held back by sensitive skin-related issues.
