VICHY SKINCARE – BI-WHITE REVEAL SPOT INTERVENTION PREVIEW AT ONCE UPON A MILKSHAKE

Vichy BI-White Reveal Deep Cell-Whitening Spot Intervention is the latest addition to the highly popular Vichy Bi-White Reveal Skincare range, Singapore No. 1 Whitening Derma brand. Vichy Bi-White Spot Intervention targets all dark spots, acne marks, freckles, age spots, sun spots, hand spots and brown spots, even the most stubborn ones, leaving skin visibly fairer, more unified and healthier.

    

At Vichy Bi-White Spot Intervention Preview, guest speaker Dr. Jonathan Lee, a Consultant Surgeon and  owner of Aesthetics & Rejuvenative Medicine gave us an overall view on pigmentation including causes, prevention and treatments available.

Pigmentation is one of the most common signs of aging. Repeated exposure to UV and pollutants to the skin can cause the appearance of dark spots not only on the face but also on other sun exposed areas like the neck and hands. In addition, ageing is linked with skin darkening and an intensification of its yellow colour for Asian women. Other causes include post acne, chemical treatments, drugs, heredity, stress and pregnancy.

To prevent and treat spots, one have to identify the type of pigmentation to ensure effective use of products with ingredients like retinoids, LHA, arbutin, glycolic acid, ascorbic acid and kojic acid to name a few. 

With the growing concern of dark spots, colour imperfections, skin blemishes and marks among Asian women, Vichy announced the latest addition to its popular Bi-White Reveal range with Deep Cell-Whitening Spot Intervention to prevent and reduce all types of types. With clinically proven efficacy and suitable even for sensitive skin, Vichy Spot Intervention is made in a high skin-respect formula to reduce pigment from spots including

• Sun Spots
  
• Freckles or Ephelides
  
• Melasma
  
• Age Spots
  
• Hand Spots
  
• Acne Marks
  
• Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation
  
• Drug-induced hyperpigmentation

VICHY BI-WHITE REVEAL SPOT INTERVENTION

Formulated with Vitamin Cg, 5 times more LHA and 2 times more Ceramide white™  than that of Bi-White essence, Spot Intervention has been tested under dermatological control on Asian Sensitive skin to locally reduce dark spots on hands and face, decreasing intensity of shade and preventing the production of melanin at the source by inhibiting the enzyme.

 
KEY Ingredients

• LHA - Salicylic acid exfoliates pigmentation on skin surface and accelerates cell renewal
• Ceramide white™ - Reduction of melanin, Ceramide 5 is exclusively synthesized and patented by L’Oreal

• Anti-Dark Circle Whitening Corrective Eye Care
  
• Deep-Cell Whitening Spot Intervention

The presentation ended with a Hands on session on how to make a Cranberries and Vanilla milkshake for antioxidant boost.

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.
