MURAD SKINCARE RECYCLING – EARTH DAY 2011 GO GREEN CAMPAIGN

MURAD SINGAPORE EARTH DAY Recycling Go Green 2011 Campaign – Recycle and be rewarded with Murad Skincare samples suitable for your skin type when your return your used skincare glass/plastic bottles at Murad counters.

Be Green this Spring with Murad Skincare. As part of Murad Earth Day 2011 Recycling efforts, Murad is encouraging everyone to care for the environment and to heighten consumers’ awareness in creating a greener planet by leading a more eco-friendly lifestyle and reducing carbon footprints.

A simple step to take is to reduce water bottle usage and “eat water”

Try to replace one glass of water a day with a raw fruit or vegetable, instead of seeking hydration from plastic bottles. Dr. Murad suggests that we take steps to improve the hydration and general health of the entire body by tending to the health of cells. Eat foods that are rich in structured water, such as raw fruits and vegetables as they help the body hold on to water longer and also provide the added boost of important antioxidents, fiber and other nutrients.

 

Simply drop off your used plastic or glass skincare bottles (ANY brand) at Murad counters located at BHG Bugis, Metro Paragon, Robinson Centrepoint or TARA apothecary to redeem your Murad Skincare Samples from now till 22nd April 2011, while stocks last. All collected bottles will be sent to recycling companies to ensure proper recycling.

Most Asians have short sparse lashes. To achieve long luscious lashes, One need not go for expensive eyelash extensions. Beauty products to the rescue !
