Jun Gong Detox Detox Foot Patches

What is Jun Gong Detox Detox Detox Fat-absorb Foot Pad?

Foot Pad is made from totally natural wood vinegar and bamboo vinegar essence and is applied on the bottom of both feet, before bed which enhance sleep quality bringing total refreshment in the next morning.

Natural bamboo vinegar essence, Natural plant extracts, Natural mineral powder, Tourmaline natural crystal, Chitin extract, Vitamin C essence, Tangerine oil extract and others.



How does it works?
Our feet, also known as the "second heart", has many reflex points in the feet which correspond to a vital organ in our body, stimulating these reflex points promotes equilibrium in the corresponding area of the body and helps to clean out waste and toxins from our body through skin. 

The principle of Detox & Fat-absorb Foot Pad is similar to osmosis pressure in plant. Water diffuses from the soil into the root through semi-permeable membrane. 

With the combined action of wood vinegar, far-infrared and negative-ion emissions, the Foot Patch will able to absorb toxins & fats released easily from these reflex points, which is the potential point of toxin accumulation and the best location to accelerate body detoxification.





Placing foot pads on different area of your feet brings about different efficacy, such as:

Top – Relieve sleeping problems; Ease headache, Sinusitis; Ease stiff neck and shoulder pain;

5 Tricks to Make Your Mani-Pedi Last Longer


1. Don't soak your nails before polishing: Soaking expands the nail plate, and it will contract back to normal size after it dries. But if you apply polish before it contracts, the polish won't adhere correctly. 
2. Apply a topcoat after you leave the salon: To extend the life of a manicure, I advise applying a coat of high-gloss topcoat.
3. Protect your hands post-manicure: Use gloves while gardening and doing dishes to help protect your polish from chipping and lifting. Gloves will also help protect your cuticles from drying out due to soil and moisture.
4. Apply cuticle oil every night: This also helps keep your cuticles from drying out. Applying cuticle oil prevents hangnails and dry cuticles, which can cause polish to peel and chip.
5. Keep your toes under wraps—and moisturize them daily:Wearing flip-flops regularly contributes to dry and dirty feet, which can ruin a pedi within a week. Apply moisturizer after a shower or soak to provide instant hydration and protection from daily assault.
The best way to moisturize your feet is with a bit of warmed lotion. Takes an extra minute to prepare, yes, but it's so worth the effort. Put about five pumps' worth of lotion (or roughly three tablespoons of body butter or cream) in a microwaveable glass container, then cover and microwave for five to 10 seconds. Work quickly, as it cools down right away, and enjoy the indulgent feeling of warm cream against your skin.

3 diet ideas to help you drop weight … easily

Small diet changes add up: part three. A few small changes in your diet every month could help you cut some calories and also make it easier to keep weight off.

Making Small Changes in Your Diet

Some ways to save calories by decreasing your sugar intake, or your fat intake, or by controlling the size of your portions.  If you’re ready to tackle a few more, here are three more small changes you can think about working on this month.

Small Change #1: Eat More Slowly


Eating more slowly allows you more time to really enjoy your food – and your digestive tract will probably thank you, too. Taking at least 15 minutes to finish a plate of food – which, to them, is an eternity.  Longer, slower meals often help them to control their intake.
Why it Works: When you eat more slowly, you’re eating more “mindfully”. When you eat mindfully, your meals may be more satisfying, which means you might be able to eat less and enjoy it more.  Also, when you eat quickly, it’s often a sign that you’ve allowed yourself to become overly hungry – and hungry people tend to dig into the highest calorie foods on their plates first.  If you take your time and focus on what you’re doing, you can start with the lowest calorie foods in your meal (salad, a broth-based soup, or the veggies) and fill up on those first. Another thing that slower eating allows you to do is to consume more water between bites – which may also help to fill you up.

Small Change #2: Aim for Two (or two more!) Fish Meals Per Week


It’s often recommended that you aim for a couple of fish meals per week, in order to get the health benefits from the omega-3 fatty acids that fish and seafood contains.  But, many people don’t eat fish nearly that often. Eating more fish, including seafood not only helps to improve the quality of your diet, it might also help you save some calories, since fish are typically lower in calories than other protein sources.
Why it Works: As long as it’s not cooked with a lot of fat, most fish and seafood have fewer calories per serving than meats or poultry – trading a serving of steak for some grilled seafood could save you a couple hundred calories.  One study1, has even suggested that fish – when compared with other animal sources of protein – may have more “staying power”.  So, eating fish instead of beef or chicken might not only save you calories at thatmeal – it might also help you to eat less at your next meal, too.

Small Change #3: Switch from Refined Grains to Whole Grains


Whole grains offer you more nutritionally than refined grains like white bread, white rice and traditional pasta.  That’s because whole grains naturally contain fiber, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients that are mostly stripped away when the grains are processed.  But switching from refined grains to whole grains could also help you control calories too, since they are more filling.
Why it Works: First, whole grain foods may be more filling than refined grains, since they generally have a higher fiber content.  Higher fiber foods also take longer to digest than refined carbohydrates, which gives them more staying power. And, many whole grain foods tend to have fewer calories per serving than their refined counterparts.

Remedies for Dry Skin with herbalife skin care

Got dry skin on the face? Dry skin can be very irritating and at times, painful. Dry facial skin is a major problem of many but fortunately, there are effective ways to combat it. Here are five simple proven ways to treat flaky skin on face.

 

Remedies for Dry Skin

1. Know What Causes Dry Skin
You have to know what triggers dry skin so you can treat and prevent it. The following are common causes of dry skin:
  • Cold Weather – Cold weather can leave you with dry skin due to skin dehydration caused by dry air.
  • Harsh Soaps – Washing your face using any bar of soap can dry out your skin's natural moisture.
  • Hot Showers – Although soothing, steamy showers can strip off the natural oils in your skin more rapidly.
  • Scrubbing – Scrubbing your skin with a towel after taking a bath strips moisture away.
  • Aging – As you age, hormone levels change causing your skin to become parched and thin.
  • Irritants – Chemicals found in your perfume as well as the detergents and fabric softeners you use can aggravate the face.
  • Skin Condition – Eczema (atopic dermatitis) can cause your face and your body to be red and scaly.

2. Eat Foods for Dry Skin
It's important that you heal your skin from the inside out. The best way for you to do that is to eat these foods for dry skin:
Avocados
Avocados can increase the amount of healthy fats to add moisture and make your skin more supple.
avocado
  
Celery and Cucumber
Celery and cucumber have silica which helps boost the skin's moisture and suppleness. A salad containing these vegetables will keep your skin fresh and moisturized.

 Salmon
The omega 3 fatty acids found in this fish helps minimize inflammation and redness of skin.
  
 Green Tea
Rich in antioxidants and vitamins, green tea will keep your skin young and glowing. Green tea soothes the skin by preventing free radical damage caused by environmental pollution.

Coconut Oil
Coconut oil helps the skin become soft as it removes flaking by moisturizing it in a natural way. You can use it topically or internally by adding it to your food.

3. Hydrate with Water.
Nothing beats drinking a lot of agua to hydrate your dry sensitive skin. Always keep a bottle of water handy to make sure you'll hydrate yourself every so often.

4. Moisturize
It's important that you regularly moisturize to keep the skin's protective layer safe from losing moisture. Here are some of the best face creams from Herbalife you have to try:
A rich moisturizer with “apricot oil” (a moisturizing oil rich in vitamins A, C and E) that helps skin sustain elasticity and suppleness. The broad spectrum UVA/UVB sun protection of SPF 15 shields your face from the sun’s damaging rays.
PC_NOURIFUSION_SKIN_MultiVitamin_Normal_to_Dry_Moisturizer_SPF_15

A night cream made with antioxidant vitamins A, C and E, sunflower oil, olive oil, panthenol and Pheohydrane P. that aids healthy skin renewal to moisturize and protect the skin sans the oily feeling.
PC_NOURIFUSION_SKIN_NouriFusion_MultiVitamin_Night_Cream

An ultra-rich night cream with time-delaying glutamine complex that helps in collagen production to hydrate and nourish the skin. It revitalizes your skin during sleep – a time when skin renewal is at its most active.

5. Humidify in Cold Weather
As mentioned earlier, cold, rainy days can leave your skin dry. Run a humidifier in your bedroom (with indoor humidity of about 50%) to increase air moisture.
Flaky skin on face is no reason for you to go berserk. Try out one or two of our tips. In time, you'll get skin that will be the envy of many!

Groupon Review on Eyebrow embroidery session at Clariface

I found a good deal from Groupon Malaysia for Eyebrow embroidery which my mom wants to do it quite some time ago. Thus, i bought for her.

A little indian girl came out and served us. She offered to do eyebrow threading for my mom which is not included into the package which cost RM7.00. I think it is still a reasonable price thus we just go ahead with it.

After that, she get my mom lie down on the arm chair and start draw her eyebrow. After the shaping and few times of adjustment, we felt satisfied with the shape and then ready for embroidery. One thing that i'm feel uncomfortable is she only apply the medicine which reduce the pain after first layer of embroidery. I've urged them to apply it even the first layer, however they refused as the medicine will fade out the shape and unable to do it perfectly. Luckily, my mom still can take it. 



It is a manual eyebrow tatoo. They not allow me to take pictures after the tatoo start. The pen is similar as i found in Google below. I'm emphasized to get a darker color as it will last longer and less reddish after the color is fade out after some times.




After approximately 30 minutes which she have done about 3-4 layers per eyebrow, the best matched eyebrow are ready. There is no special cream for post application but she asked to apply Vaseline instead. Here is end result and we go touch up again after 3-4 weeks depends on the peeling status.



Something funny that i found is their eyebrow embroidery price which not as costly as they posted in the Groupon. Overall, their service is just Okay compare to mine (RM350.00) but it is worth the value.

The Groupon offer is keep renew everyweek once it is expired at http://www.groupon.my/deals/klang/clariface-skin-rejuvenation-center/718115823. If you interested to tatoo your eyebrow, you may try it as well. Enjoy~
