Countdown To A Healthier New Year With MAGNOLIA

| |
Hi Huneybees,


GOOD MORNING!!!  

As we countdown to the New Year 2016 also means it's time for new changes and new looks. F&N's MAGNOLIA has given their fresh milk packaging a brand new look with the best intentions for their fans to kick start a healthier and active lifestyle.


The new packaging breathes of a fresher and cleaner modern look, with the important details easily visible with a glance. You can also appreciate the refreshed design of the side panel, complete with tips on how to drink milk at its freshest and to get the best out of it; and though there is a new look, the taste of the milk remains unchanged and still as tasty and creamy as ever.


Milk is my must-have drink every morning and to consume the nutritional value at its highest to support out heart and bone health, it has to be consumed fresh and enjoyed within 3 days of opening as recommended by Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) of Singapore (http://www.AVA. gov.sg/explore-by-sections/food/food-safety-quality/good-food-safety-practices).

Don't be deceived by the use-by date on the milk cartons as this is just an indication as to when the milk will remain fresh and safe for consumption when it is UNOPENED. But once it is opened, this date is no longer valid as the milk gets exposed to bacteria and loses its quality and freshness rapidly. That's why the one-litre milk pack is recommended as the two-litre milk pack might just be making us keeping the milk for more days and risk exposure to contamination!


There are also many other ways and tips to keeping and consuming milk fresh. You preserve the cold chain from the time the milk leaves the production facility to the stores and then to the home, by picking the milk last when grocery shopping and upon reaching home, refrigerate the milk right away between 2°C to 4°C.

As this is a very important information and habit to have, MAGNOLIA will be having the 'Drink Milk Fresh' campaign to help their consumers appreciate the importance of handling fresh milk safely.


Along with this campaign, you guys can collect these 4 stylish glasses at participating supermarkets and outlets. From 1 January 2016, with every purchase of 2 one-litre packs of MAGNOLIA Fresh Milk, you can collect 1 of these glasses, whilst stocks last.


You can also head on over to their 'Start Fresh, Finish Fresh' Roadshows to exchange any empty 2-litre milk bottles for a free MAGNOLIA 1-litre milk! There's gona be a series of fun activities and quizzes at the roadshows and don't forget to get this limited edition 'Start Fresh. Finish Fresh' Glass too!


It is an exclusive design that will only be available at the roadshows with every purchase of 2 one-litre MAGNOLIA milk packs.


But if you could not make it to the roadshows, lookout for the MAGNOLIA Roving Truck in your neighbourhood! Simply bring an empty two-litre milk bottle with the label still intact to the Roving Truck to redeem a one-litre pack of MAGNOLIA Fresh Milk.

[Tried & Tested] Clear Your Acne Prone And Oily Skin With Benzac

| |
Hi Huneybees,


Acnes are always a irritating fellow. Not only does it affect our looks, alot would also agree if I say it affects the self esteem as well. Well, if you are troubled by acne, Benzac might be the solution for you. It is a skincare range recently launched by Galderma - targeting at treating adult /youth acne problems.

Some of the best acne treatment therapies may produce clear skin in some acne sufferers but only exacerbate the problem in individuals with combination skin types. As acne sufferers have different skin conditions ranging from normal, sensitive, oily to combination, the new range of Benzac cleansers and scrub aim to complement the current Benzac AC® treatment gels by removing impurities from the skin and unblocking pores, leaving your skin nourished and soothed.


So, I got my hubby to try the range of products sent over to me, as I didn't have much of acnes to work on. Hehehe...


So, he embarked on a 5-day journey to see if Benzac works for him. Firstly, using the Benzac Daily Facial Liquid Cleanser to cleanse his face twice a day. 


Then, he used the Benzac AC®5 Gel on the affected acnes twice a day. It blends into the skin, so you don't have to worry that you will see white spots all over your face. Moreover, there is a cooling effect when applied, hubby said that it's pretty refreshing especially in the mornings!

What's so special about the Benzac AC® Gels is that they contain the active ingredient, Benzoyl Peroxide. Benzoyl Peroxide is an antimicrobial that has keratolytic action (unblock pores) and is able to quickly and effectively kill Propionibacterium acnes (P-acnes) bacteria within 48 hours. Unlike antibiotics, bacteria have not been able to become resistant to benzoyl peroxide.

In addition, the Benzac AC® Gel is specifically formulated with Acrylates Copolymer (AC) beads to absorb excess oils (sebum) that can carry bacteria, thus reducing surface sebum and it also releases glycerin, which helps to moisturize dry and irritated skin. The Benzac AC® Gel is available in several different concentrations -2.5%, 5% and 10%.


After using the products for 5 days straight, I can see an improvement in my hubby's skin. The acnes are less and his skin is definitely less oily. He doesn't even need to blot his face that much and he's loving it! He has been using the products ever since and he was glowing for Chinese New Year!

Benzac® Range of Daily Cleansers and Treatment Gels are available at the following selected pharmacies: Guardian, Unity and Watsons.

For further information on the Benzac® range, please visit www.facebook.com/BenzacSG and www.twitter.com/BenzacSG.
