Online beauty products deal turns ugly for 66

KuAlA LUMPUR: At least 66 people paid the price for their ignorance when they were cheated of their money after making Internet purchases of skincare products from someone named “Big Pussycat.”

The victims made online transfers amounting to RM73,445.10 for the products which came under names such as “My Beauty” and “My Sherman Beauty” that had been advertised on “Big Pussycat’s.” website

These products included facial and eye masks.

Salesman Chong Wei Lun, 29, made purchases totalling RM2,910 for his girlfriend on May 4 but the products never arrived.

“The price of the items was cheaper than those off the shelf,” he said as he explained why he was lured by the advertisement.

Chong was one of the 11 dissatisfied customers who turned to MCA Public Services and Complaints Department head Datuk Michael Chong to voice their grievance.

At a press conference yesterday, another victim Winnie Tan, 20, said she discovered that she had been ripped off only after her friends told her to do a more thorough check on the advertisement.

She saw website postings warning people that the sale of the skincare line was not genuine.

Michael Chong advised the public, especially young people, to be more cautious when buying goods featured on the Internet, adding that he would submit all the complaints to the police.

Hair loss can be a nightmare, a lady with beautiful face but with a bald head will definitely spoilt the beautiful face. It is such a pity, you might be asking why have to be me?


If you are one of them, look around you and you will notice that hair loss is not uncommon.

Some sharing of my own experience, I have been having hair loss since 10 years ago. It did not turn into very bad condition but if by close look, one can see the shinning scalp at the top of my head. I tried every possible way to hide it by using hairclip. I lost my confidence and I don’t dare to go to hair saloon because the hair stylist will make me feel hopeless and in the end they will persuade me to buy more hair loss products!

Hair Loss Products? I had tried too many of it and yet I have not seen the desire result. But lately, I found something cheap and quite effective way (at least it works for me).



Remedy
Hair shampoo: I used scalp care shampoo and hair loss shampoo alternate days. I would suggest to used shampoo that use natural ingredients, perhaps organics shampoo and silicon-free shampoo might be good. Every time when come to hair wash, if possible spend more time to rub and massage the scalp. Last time, I did not want to rub my scalp because I was worried that my hair will fall more if I rub my scalp as the hair follicles were too weak to support the hair. However, my earlier perception was wrong, my hair did fell in the beginning but as time goes by I can feel that my scalp is healthier with fewer flakes.


Green Tea: I drink 3 times a week, not really sure whether this actually help or not. But since I take it and change the way I wash my hair, I can see the result, there are more hairs growing and my hair is starting to grow ticker.

Great skin, vision of beautyYou are born beautiful. We want to enhance or restore it. Our special skin care concept introduces an easy and unique C-C-M-T routine which is basic, yet essential. A concept specially designed for unique individual like you. And we are not stopping here, we strive for continuous improvements.The beauty theory advocated by ELKEN works on unique C-C-M-T routine. It involves four simple and easy-to-perform steps. This is a total solution for result-oriented cleansing and moisturising workouts. The Special Care products are capable of providing remarkable deep cleansing, whitening and toning effects, allowing your skin to shine with a mesmerising appeal.



The first step: Cleanse (+ clarify) – The first important step to a skincare regime is deep cleansing (and clarifying). This function helps remove impurities, dirt and grime to refresh skin. A cleanser with effective cum clarifying action not only washes but also lift off layers of dead cells on skin surface to let skin breathe better, increasing its capacity for absorption.


The second step: Condition – Cleansed skin needs conditioning to firm and tighten pores after impurities have been cleared. Besides removing remnants of dirt, it restores the pH balance, relaxes skin and prepares for the goodness of moisturising lotions or specific treatments.


The third step: Moisturise – Moisturising is a must for all skin types. Moisturising keeps skin hydrated and provides all the essential nutrients to keep skin soft, supple and resilient. It also acts as a protective barrier that shields skin from harmful pollutants and environmental factors.


The last step: Treat (Special Care) – Treatments are a vital part of skincare. They act as special boosters to enhance results and performance. Even with routine skincare regime for your skin type, you should still give your skin the special attention of treatments that emphasise on treating specific areas of your skin. Treatments are individual care products that can be used separately to complement your regular maintenance skincare.
