Everyone loves our new Konjac Sponges.

We have been selling and using Konjac sponges, the latest addition to our skin care range for over a month now. The feedback so far has been very positive, with many of our friends and customers commenting on what a great addition to their skin care regime. It has been said by many of our customers how soft they find their Konjac sponges. They have also commented on our charcoal Konjac sponges which they have found to be excellent in clearing small facial blemishes and reducing acne.

Men can use Konjac sponges too!
I gave one of our pure Konjac sponges to a friend the other day. Like most men he suffers from shaving rash as he wet shaves every day. He mentioned to me that he has been using his sponge before he shaves and it seemed to help him get a better, smoother shave, thus reducing irritation and shaving rash.
I also wet shave so I thought I would give washing my face with a Konjac sponge a go before shaving and I must agree that using my Konjac sponge as a pre shave preparation technique has helped me in the daily chore of shaving.
So to all you men out there why not add a Konjac sponge wash to your morning routine, we are sure you will find it beneficial.

What next for Konjac Sponges.

We are developing two new Konjac sponges; the first a Green Tea Konjac sponge that will be available very shortly on our online store and also from our office here in Bangkok.
Green tea has a special antioxidant in it. The antioxidant is used to clear cell damage on the skin. It has also been found that Green tea can very quickly rejuvenate your skin. Even if it is not damaged, skin can always look better, as there is always room for improvement. So using Konjac sponges impregnated with high quality green tea is a perfect facial sponge for sensitive easily irritated, hypersensitive skin.  It helps to turn rough and hardened skin into soft and radiant skin, rejuvenating, plumping and helping to return the skins natural elasticity. It will also be excellent for skin that has had lots of sun exposure.

The second sponge we are developing is a bath size Konjac sponge. Just like our facial Konjac Sponge, the new bath sized Konjac sponge will be suitable for even the most sensitive skin. The bath Konjac sponge will effectively dissolve and remove excess sebum, dirt and dead skin cell from pores.
Our Konjac Bath Sponge will contain a natural weak acid that helps clean your skin so there is no need for additional cleansers or soaps unless you really want them.
 The natural moisturizing ingredient found in the Yizhi bath Konjac Sponge will enhances skin texture and retain water levels to keep skin soft & fresh.

So please stay tuned for more information on Konjac sponges but in the mean time if you want to try one of our Konjac sponges out for yourself please check out our web store  at www.amazingthaibeauty.com

The Great Slippery Soap Debate

The great soap debate lingers on: Which is better, liquid soap or bar soap? The verdict is in: When it comes to personal hygiene, both liquid and bar soap are up to the task and get the job done. However, neither the proponents of liquid soap nor the supporters of bar soap have an open-shut case since both soaps have their pros and cons. What's the bottom line? It's up to you, the consumer, to decide which type of soap offers the most benefits in your situation and for your personal skin type. To help you gain some clarity on this 'slippery' issue and to decide what is best for you here are some of the facts.

Skin type
Liquid soap contains a lower ph level than bar soap and is therefore gentler and suitable for people with sensitive skin. Because it is also able to retain more than 30% of the skin’s natural moisture, it is really good for dry skin. Bar soap on the other hand, can dry the skin and cause breakouts. However, this doesn’t mean that all types of bar soap are bad for our skin. Bar soap that contains glycerin is good for people with sensitive skin, eczema and psoriasis as this ingredient has healing properties as well as the ability of attracting water to the skin, leaving it feeling soft and hydrated. In addition, bars soaps formulated with glycerin combined with natural oils moisturize skin without drying it. There are lots of bar soaps that don’t contain fragrance, which can be irritating. Most liquid soaps on the other hand are scented, but you can still find some that are fragrance-free.

Efficiency
The liquid type can be used with a washcloth and it produces lather faster than bar soaps, which instead feel nice and creamy in your hands.

Convenience
Because liquid soaps come in a packaging with a pump dispenser, they are very practical to use in the shower, but it is easy to overestimate the amount of soap you need. Soap bars, on the other hand, turns slimy and slips everywhere but you only use the needed amount.

Health risk
Because bar soap is left exposed to moisture, it is more likely to grow small amounts of bacteria. While the risk of getting a disease from the soap is quite remote, it is better not to share it with a large amount of people. Liquid soap, on the other hand, is pumped from the packaging so it is less likely to grow bacteria. However, if you use it with a washcloth, make sure you dry it properly, as it could harbor bacteria otherwise.

Packaging
Liquid soap usually comes in a bottle with a pump dispenser. Refillers are also available so that you don’t need to buy a whole new package. Instead, bar soaps usually come wrapped in paper or cardboard. The packaging is easier to recycle.

Scum
Unlike liquid soap, bars leave a soap scum in the shower, so that you need to clean the tub more often.

Cost
Cost is another determining factor, as liquid soap is substantially more expensive than bar soap. If money is an issue, consider placing a liquid soap dispenser in public areas - for both decorative and hygienic purposes - and using a bar soap when you bathe or shower.

 Finally
In actuality, there is no right or wrong answer. Which type of soap you use is a personal choice based on your skin type, on your skin's reactions to certain additives (i.e., moisturizers and fragrances), and on your knowledge of the pros and cons of liquid soap versus bar soap.

Centella Herbal Liquid Soap

You can purchase both types of soap at our on line store www.amazingthaibeauty.com . Why not try one of our new range of herbal liquid soaps which include our exclusive Centella Herbal Liquid Soap.

Beauty For Your Dog

Today I am going to tell you about a different product we have in store & tips on how to use it. However I will still be talking about a beauty product but this time for your much loved member of your family, your dog.

When you choose a dog shampoo or conditioner, think about your dog’s skin. Is it extra sensitive?
If your dog scratches frequently, it may well have very sensitive skin. If your pet dog possesses really sensitive skin, you might try our Pitta dog shampoo which formula contains Protein from wheat to nourish your dog’s hair keeping it soft. This protein also prevents drying of dog’s skin & prevents itching.
Our dog shampoo also contains Oil from tea leaves which helps to prevent Irritation from biting by ticks or fleas. It also reduces and prevents unpleasant odors from your dog. Lastly Pitta Dog shampoo contains pine oil which helps dogs relax & it also relieves muscle tension & fatigue. It also prevents fleas on dogs.

Dog shampoos like ours that incorporate much less synthetic ingredients are usually more suitable for your dog as they have natural ingredients.
Avoid buying shampoos that are perfumed in any respect, fragrances also can inflame the dogs skin.The scents can irritate a dog's skin. You know that some sort of extra ingredient has to be placed into the shampoo and some dogs may not be as tolerant as others when it comes to these ingredients. That is why it is a good idea to play it safe and get a lightly scented shampoo. Your dog will also smell pleasant instead of smelling like he or she just left a beauty salon full of chemicals
Frequently bathing your dog is actually part of a beneficial care plan. If your dog has got any rashes or even inflamed skin, you may possibly consider using a medicated canine shampoo.
It is important to ensure that none of the shampoo or conditioner makes contact with the dogs face as well as mouth area when you're bathing him.
Important thing to remember!Lastly & probably the most significant point is to never ever use shampoo or conditioner for human beings on a canine.  It may irritate your dog’s pores and skin much more or cause extreme soreness.

Melasma-The Causes & Ways to Limit its Effect

Malsama Care

Something that people suffering from Melasma are often wondering about is what causes this skin condition in the first place. Melasma is something that is almost exclusive to women, especially women who are of a culture with a darker skin. Hormonal changes, such those that happen with pregnancy, could also be a significant factor.

Another possible cause of Melasma is excessive exposure to the sun. When the woman is exposed to the sun for long periods of time, then that can trigger an excess production of melanin. Melanin is what the skin produces in order to protect itself.

Is there a Cure?

There is no one cure for this kind of skin condition. Sometimes the condition will disappear on its own. Of course, it is also important to wear an SPF of 30 or more to avoid dangerous sun exposure.

Can Melasma be prevented?

It really is not possible to prevent Melasma but there are a couple of things which you can try to limit your chances of getting the condition.

One of these preventative measures is to limit sun exposure.  As the Melanocytes are what mainly causes the condition, limiting the amount of time you spend in the sun can really help to keep this condition in check. Always wear sun protection when you do go out and wear a sun hat to keep the sun’s rays out of your face.

However, even if you do cover up in the sun and wear sunscreen, it will still not completely prevent you from developing the condition. You can only really treat the condition once you have it.

Another thing that should be noted is not to use skin lighteners or bleaching creams containing steroids. These can cause permanent skin damage including permanent redness, thinning and blood vessel streaks. Also avoid skin lighteners or bleaching creams containing mercury as this is a poison.

Lastly avoid irritating the facial skin. Do not use strong soaps or abrasive cleaners but only a mild soap or cleanser for washing.

What are recommended Malasma Prevention Creams?

As has already been mentioned in this blog, the most important factoring preventing the development as well as worsening of melasma is appropriate facial sun protection with broad-spectrum sunscreen (UVA and UVB) as well as avoidance of tanning beds. This point cannot be overemphasized.

We at Amazing Thai Beauty have a great new broad spectrum sun protection cream- Skin Mates Maroom Detox UV Protection Cream combines sun protection and major antioxidant properties. Suitable for all skin types, Skin Mates unique formula protects while allowing your body to absorb its daily dosage of vitamin D, which is best provided from sunlight. This silky, light, quick-absorbing moisturizing cream replenishes the skin’s moisture balance and guards against free radicals and environmental abuse.

Skin Mates Maroom Detox UV Protection Cream contains Moringa Extract that acts as an anti pollutant, the formula also contains soothing aloe Vera & hibiscus extract to help firm sun damaged skin. Finally the formula is topped off with large amounts of vitamin E that acts as an antioxidant.

Honey -Natures Gold

Honey is now a popular ingredient for both medical and beauty purposes. Rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and amino acids, honey has excellent healing capabilities when used on the skin or hair.

All types of honey contain antioxidants and antibacterial properties. The healing properties in honey are more stable and are not broken down by enzymes on or in the body unlike synthetic skin & hair formulas.

Honey Hair Care

You like honey in your tea and on your toast, but have you ever thought of putting honey in your hair? You should! Honey not only adds shine, but it also naturally attracts moisture.

Honey for hair has been used for ages to treat hair loss, itching and even scaling. This is because honey is known to have antifungal, anti bacterial and antioxidant properties besides a high nutrient value. One of the honey hair benefits is that its gives hair a natural shine and also promotes hair growth.

Honey is also used in natural conditioner as it is able to tame frizzy and dry hair as it does not cause build up and does not contain any harmful chemicals.

Honey for Skin

Honey’s natural antioxidant and anti-microbial properties help to protect the skin from the damage of the sun’s rays, supports the skin’s ability to rejuvenate and refresh depleted skin, leaving it feeling silky soft and supple. One of the most common natural skin care benefits with honey is related to treatment of minor acne, acne which could be caused by hormonal changes or "heartiness in the body", as traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) would refer to it as the imbalance of yin and yang in the body. Honey absorbs impurities from the pores on the skin, making it an ideal cleansing agent.

With the wide-ranging of natural skin care products, it is no wonder that there exist a huge number of honey products in the market for, skin care for sunscreen, hand lotions, facial scrubs, soaps and moisturizers.
