Moea Spa, spa products from Tahitian Noni

I always love spa products, and since I consume Tahitian Noni Juice everyday, I also try its spa products too.

You can visit the website here to see the products.
Products available in Indonesia are only:
1. Sugar Scrub
This scrub is different from other scrub. It has sugar crystal, contains macadamia and kukui nut essential oil. The aroma is vanilla.

After scrubbing, our skin will glow as the sugar cane polishes it, so it's better we apply this after we take a bath, not before the bath. Just wash the body after applying. If your skin is very wet, sugar crystal will melt. It won't clog your bathroom drainage.

This is very good for your dry skin. Use 1-2 times a week.

2. Body Butter
Next, after you dry up, apply Body Butter only on specific dry skin area, e.g. elbow, knee, heels.
It contains noni seed oil and tiare flower.

3. Body Souffle
Apply this all over your body to get smooth skin after you take a bath. It has banana aroma and contain macademia nut oil, noni seed oil, cocoa seed butter and shea butter which give you extraordinary moisture and protect the skin.

With only those products, you can still enjoy the effect of spa. It's do-it-yourself spa.
Now, relax and enjoy your time.

If you want to have those, please contact me :)

Fresh Juice

Fresh juice is good for our body, especially for digestion system.
Choose combination of fruits according to your condition. Drink it at least 30 minutes before you have your first meal so that all vitamins in it will be absorbed well by the body.

For me, I don't use juicer, only blender. With blender, you still get the fiber of the fruits.

I choose papaya, plus other fruits, e.g. strawberry, apple, pineapple. Any fruits that the flavor go with papaya. Papaya makes me full, it's what I want.
Have juice in the morning before breakfast, for morning snack, or for afternoon snack.

To prepare the juice, it will take sometime.
A month ago, I had an offer from Mama Roz Juice who was having promotion at my gym. I subscribed to their Chic 'N Slim package for a month. I safe my time for preparing the juice and money to buy the fruits. They send it three times a week. A bottle (600 cc) can last for three times drink.

Remember, this is fresh juice! Not regular juice that we can buy from supermarket.
That means, it only lasts up to three days, no added sugar-only fructose, no preservatives.

I enjoy it ^-^

New stretch mark cream

Last Sunday I went to Puri Mall and just browsed through the department store. Since I wanted to update what's new with Dewi Sri Spa products, so I dropped by at its counter.

I found that they launched Innoshape Stretchmark Lessening Cream. The price is lower than The Body Shop's and Activa's, Rp 144,000.
The beauty consultant informed me that the result can be seen after 4 times of use. Wow, interesting. Even the product from Body Shop that I've been using takes longer time.
To be honest, I can't see the difference of my skin before and during the usage.

I plan to try this product after I finish Body Focus from The Body Shop.

Weight Loss

I started to do routine exercise around August 2007, right after my first lab check.
I must reduce my weight and have a proper diet based on the lab result.
The doctor said, when I lower my weight, the blood sugar level will be lower too.

I was 86 kg. After first two weeks of exercise and diet, I lost 5 kg.
After I recovered from typhoid fever, my weight was 72 kg, I lost 3-4 more kg at that time.
Last January, I gained 2 kg, hehehe....... So my weight should be around 73 to 74 kg.

I'm careful to check nutrition fact of processed food. Less fat, less sugar.
Better to cook your own meal.

I take Tahitian Noni Juice as usual. But before, I tried Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Milk from Herbalife.

Most important thing is to have exercise, at least 3 times a week to burn sugar and calorie. Also it's good to prevent stretch marks and cellulite. These are problems occurred when you have weight problems.

My weight target is 67-68 kg, like when I was in college. But if I can do less than that, that will be great.
I'm not doing this for the sake of being thin, but it's for my health. I saw how my parents suffered from diabetes complications, I hope I can prevent that from happening to me.
