  • Esmeria Organics: Certified Organic Skincare That Keeps It Real

    do your body care products on a holiday too?

    Last month I finally muster up the courage to pay for a luxury spa retreat in Ipoh. Of all places Ipoh you asked? Yes Ipoh, why? because of the wonderful hot spring spots I have been hearing about. Thanks to The Star Newspaper, I found out about this wellness escape in Ipoh that offers geothermal hot spring facilities, even at the privacy of your own villa. This place called The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat also strives to be Eco-friendly and maintains the lush green beauty around the hot springs. One of my favorite packing for holiday activity is to pack my body care products! guess which one came up in my mind? ESMERIA ORGANICS!

    Yes my boyfriend was complaining why I had so many luggage bags for just a one night stay in Ipoh. I don't think I am the only girl who does this!. When we go on a holiday retreat and the place has a bath tub, the one thing that pops up in my mind is "pampering sessions". Then it's off to a careful selection of products suited for the theme. I mean it could be just your personal preference to bring any products, be it your favorite one or your holy grail products that you can't live without. For me I think I'm more of a themed person. Since I am going to a wellness retreat that provides a refreshing, relaxing and rejuvenating retreat (not to mention that my meals are organic too!) I lugged my entire Esmeria Organics body & face care products with me. It's real heavy!

    Just a few days before my trip, I was actually ushered to a beautiful place deep inside Kampung Penchala where the same lush greenery surrounded me. Early in the morning I arrived at the  Bukit Kiara Park (also known as TTDI Park where joggers & monkeys roam freely) where vans were waiting to take us to the Bayan Indah Culinary Institute, Sungai Penchala.

    Arriving, we wasted no time absorbing the beautiful and lustrous nature around us. It was the perfect theme for a Organic skincare to debut. "Mother nature is truly bountiful especially in terms of plants and botanicals that have therapeutic properties. Our key active ingredients are some of the most advanced vio actives available and have been proven to solve skin problems" says Soo Kian Kheng, creator of Esmeria Organics and R&D Director of i-Green, the company that manufactures and markets Esmeria Organics.

    Buds organic skincare for infants

    Here comes the question. What's Esmeria Organics? why haven't I heard of it before? or what do they do? which company? Well have you seen Buds? yeap =) the organic skincare for for infants which Soo Kian Kheng the creator made for his child's sensitive skin needs. He couldn't find suitable products so he made them instead! From thereon, Esmeria was created and launched by his company I-Green Sdn Bhd. It has since been sold locally and internationally. His products are certified by Ecocert, one of the world's most recognized organic certification which requires products to be 95% of the formulation must be natural, 95% of the plant ingredients must be organic and 10% of total formulation must be organic. 

    Esmeria is now known as Esmeria Organics after receiving the certification (bravo).

    I was smelling the products displayed, they smell so nice! there were 3 range under the Esmeria Organics face care category. Prickly Pear for normal to combination skin, Glasswort for dry & mature skin and Alpine Willowherb for oily & acne skin. I just can't wait to try the products on my face! The speaker says  Esmeria Organics was created with the customer's interest and safety at heart. It's declared safe and the products are tested on their family and friends! Esmeria Organics assures that their products are safe enough to eat should someone accidentally eat it.

    let the cooking begin! I wish I was doing too

    the ingredients for the diy organic moisturizer

    After the introduction the media was ushered into two different activity sessions. One making your own organic cream in the kitchen and the other is to enjoy a mini facial using the Esmeria Organics products! Guess which one I choose? yes trying instead of making! I enjoyed the mini facial, Connie was my beautician and she selected the Glasswort range for me as my skin was dry and peeling. I love the smell of organic products!

    Esmeria Organics Prices RM29.90-RM49.90

    I am so excited that the organic beauty industry in Malaysia is booming up. We need more organic products like Esmeria Organics who not only provides safe and certified products but also provides products that comes with an affordable price that we can all enjoy. That being said, I shall be reviewing the products when I finish using them. I have the Prickly Pear facial care range for normal to combination skin. It's been great so far and again I love the smell. 

    P.S: Many thanks to Esmeria Organics & Angie for the well themed event. It's truly a blessing to discover a beautiful brand that has their customer's interest and safety at heart amidst a beautiful surroundings couple with an organically prepared lunch to emphasized the organic theme.

    4. Howdy would you mind stating which blog platform you're working with? I'm going to
      start my own blog soon but I'm having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely
      unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to
      ask!

      be right now. You're so intelligent. You already know thus significantly when it comes to this
      topic, made me individually imagine it from a lot of various angles.

      Its like women and men are not fascinated unless it's something to do with Lady gaga!
      Your individual stuffs excellent. All the time take care of it
