Is Your Face Sun-protected?

This is me under a super hot sun! Can you recognize me? 

Why?  

I want sun protection!

This is another another photo of me when I'm driving. Yes, even in my own car! 

Why? 

I want sun protection!

Do you know, the UV rays can also penetrate glass and are reflected from surfaces such as windows, water and even sand. 

 OMG! :O

Therefore, being indoors, in the city and especially outdoors, we have NO EXCUSE to neglect our daily sun protection routine! For me, is a MUST to apply a protective weapon on my face!

This is my powerful weapon to protect my complexion from the damaging UV rays!

 The new Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50 !

The new Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50 is  now formulated with AvoTriplex® Technology to give better, longer-lasting protection!

Back to the reason why I need sun protection. Actually not only me, all the ladies and gentlemen also need to protect your delicate complexion from this damaging UV rays!

• Premature Aging! Caused by the sun’s UVA rays when its penetrate the skin
• Skin become darken and burn, combine to break down the structure of our skin leaving it dull and lacking in elasticity, all these caused by the UVB rays.
• Over the years, sun-damage becomes more apparent in the form of deeper wrinkles around oureyes and mouth as well as uneven pigmentation, which appears as Age Spots! :O

The new Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50 comes in 60ml light green and dark blue tube. The new Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50 is:

• formulated for everyday lightweight
• lasting wear
• It is enriched with botanical extracts of tamarind, cotton and stevia. Hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested
• Banana Boat products are Sun-Tested, Sun-Proven® protection against the sun’s rays. 

About the ingredients and the Banana Boat’s AvoTriplex® Technology.

The Banana Boat’s AvoTriplex® Technology combines:

1.) Avobenzone

• a powerful absorber of UVA rays which cause long-term skin damage. 
• UVA rays penetrate deeper into the skin’s dermis and hypodermis layers to cause long-term harm to the skin.

2.) UVB absorbers

• to protect against the burning effects of the sun. 
• Without proper protection, UVB rays penetrate the skin’s epidermis layer, causing it to burn within minutes, depending on your skin type.

3.) A photo-stabilizing agent

• to maintain longer-lasting sun protection without breaking down so easily.

My review for the new Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50:

I have been using the new Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50 for about 14 days. It has light creamy texture. When I apply on my face and neck, it's not greasy or sticky at all! It doesn't feel heavy on my face and one good thing about this sunblock is it's high SPF protection! This can give a longer protection to my face! The new Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50 blends perfectly with my liquid foundation and it actually help to hold my makeup.  

The Banana Boat Ultra Protect FACES SPF50 (60ml) is available at RM32.90 at all chain pharmacies, retail stores and hypermarkets.

Pesta Tanglung 1Malaysia Parade 2012 @Sunway Pyramid

Mid-Autumn Festival or Mooncake Festival or Lantern Festival already over but I still can't get enough of the delicious mooncakes and the colourful "tanglung"' lanterns. This is my 2nd year joining Sunway Pyramid's Mid-Autumn Festival celebration. The RAYA Tanglung 1Malaysia Parade 2011 @Sunway Pyramid was my blogpost for last year's celebration. Marching into the Moonlit Night, Pesta Tanglung 1Malaysia Parade resounds the spirit of 1Malaysia.

At about 7pm, the crowd began to gather @Blue Entrance of Sunway Pyramid.

People from different cultural background and races came together to join this celebration.

One of the cute lantern that distributed to the people who joined the Pesta Tanglung 1Malaysia Parade. I got one too! ^-^

Rows of red Chinese lanterns were lined on display with riddles in Chinese characters dangling for all to see in the ‘Chai Deng Mi’ activity. A loving couple was joining the ‘Chai Deng Mi’ activity.

I wanted to join the ‘Chai Deng Mi’ activity but it was too difficult. :(

School children from SJK (C) Chee Wen kick started the event by performing a few Chinese cultural dances, demonstrating how traditional culture is even treasured by the young.

The Pesta Tanglung 1Malaysia Parade, officiated by Senator Kohilan Pillay, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, is one of the highlights in Sunway Pyramid’s Mid-Autumn celebration, jointly organised by Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) and Sunway Pyramid. 

Following that, Senator Kohilan launched the Pesta Tanglung 1Malaysia Parade and led the parade with thousands of people following behind them.

Thousands of people walked around Sunway Pyramid while carrying the lanterns, appreciating the Sunway Resort City’s showlights with loved ones, family and friends.
