The Second Vitacare Health & Wellness Discovery Journey Series

Whenever I visit The Gardens Shopping Mall, I would drop by Vitacare to check out the latest health and wellness products ever since I attended the first Vitacare Health & Wellness Discovery Journey Series a few months ago. It is so much different from the other pharmacies where I could find unique products from the advice of the pharmacist there.

I was glad that I have joined the second Vitacare health & wellness discovery journey series and learnt more on one well-deserved self-pampering and beauty tips this time.

The second Vitacare health & wellness discovery journey series started with an in-depth session on essential oil by Florame. As a beauty junkie, I am quite familiar with essential oil. I like that essential oil has many healing benefits and special aromatherapy scent for different occasion. Florame produce certiied organic essential oils and cosmetics in Saint Remy De Provence, France. In fact, Florame was one of the first companies to develop organic cosmetics lines made from natural processes and raw materials, rigorously selected and certified by official labels.

Florame applies the strictest criteria when selecting the purest and most natural essential oils from around the world, their laboratory’s tests guarantee that are essential oils are:

- 100% pure: uncut with other essential oils
- 100% natural: not denatured by synthetic molecules
- 100% complete: not subject to any treatment that might eliminate molecules
- Organically Botanically and biochemically defines (EOBBD) - Certified by Ecocert 

Next, we had learnt the secrets to natural soaps by Sensenique Natural. Sensenique Natural handmade soaps are made using natural extracts and ingredients (such as olive oil, palm oil, sunflower oil and coconut oil) with a traditional cold process method which helps retain and preserve the goodness of natural ingredients used in the soap. You might not know why traditional cold process method is used, right? Actually, the production starts from mixing all base oils with sodium hydroxide and pure essential oils. Then the soap need to 'cure' or dry from inside out for minimum 30-45 days before labelling and selling. 

Cold process soaps contains Glycerin, which is a very important byproduct of saponification. It is a a humectant and emollient, thus hydrating skin and leave the skin soft and supple.

Pure Essential Oils is added into the soap for natural fragrances. Sensenique Natural handmade soaps have No synthetic colour and preservatives, No synthetic detergents, No soap hardening agents, No petroleum based chemical, No animal fats and No harsh chemical.

Sensenique Natural handmade soaps are produced under licences of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and ISO 9001. They are notified with the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency(NPRA), Ministry of Health Malaysia.

There are many selections from Sensenique Natural handmade soaps, from Lemongrass Orange Soap, Ginger Peppermint Soap, Charcoal Bengkoang Soap to Cinnamon Coffee Soap Scrub.

Lastly, a very interesting and much-needed oil - Udo’s Oil 3·6·9 Blend. As an award-winning product, Udo’s Oil 3·6·9 Blend is a foundation oil that provides both EFAs Omega 3 and Omega 6 in the ratio of 2:1. It is made exclusively with 100% mix of plant-based, unrefined, certified organic food oils. It provides people who care about health with a reliable, undamaged source of polyunsaturated omega-3 and -6 essential fatty acids (or EFAs) and monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acids, which are all excellent sources of energy, fat-soluble vitamins and other key nutrients, and are important components of all membranes of the trillions of cells in the body.

It should be eat with food, for instant you can add it into yoghurt, oats and your smoothie. It taste yummy and smooth. Take note that you should always store Udo’s Oil 3·6·9 Blend in cold place or fridge to maintain its quality.

All these products could be purchase from all Vitacare outlets. You could also apply for Vcard where you can enjoy lots of benefits such as 20% discount on supplements, Free Health checks, additional Birthday Gift Voucher as well as accumulation of points that can be converted to cash vouchers.
