An Evening of Dining, Fashion, Beauty & Wellness at Flora Terrace

On 25th November 2014, I had an enjoyable evening dining at Flora Terrace. It was about Fashion, Beauty and Wellness by Genesis Holistic Spa, Alqvimia, M2 World of Brands, ISKIN New York and Eiliya Studio.

Genesis Holistic Spa led the way to a new holistic approach to wellness for day spas by incorporating energy healing modalities, alternative therapies and other wellness regimes with spa therapies. They offer an array of treatments and services that suits the different individuals using Alqvimia Essential Oil from Spain. These essentail oils have many benefits such as antioxidant to skin and body, great skin moisturizing and protection, firming of the bust, relaxing and anti-stress, slowing down menopause, strengthening immune system just to name a few.

There are many types of essential oils such as Hungary Water and Rosemary Alcohol and not everyone is suitable to use all these oils. There is a small test where you need to put a bottle of the oil on the part of your body that you want to improve and close your thumb and index finger tightly. Someone will try to open your fingers. If your fingers remain close, the essential oil is suitable for you because it gives you strength. If not, you need to do the test again with a different type of oil.

This chart shows the symptoms of the organs affected when the essential oil is used for treatment.

Dream Trip to Macau

I would like to thank  Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO) and Nuffnang Malaysia for giving us Nuffnangers a chance to win a 3D2N all expense paid trip to Macau. I'm really excited as I write this. I will start off with the places I have visited in Macau, then give 3 reasons why I want to go there again.

Macau is a wonderful place to visit. I have been there once with my parents in 2007. One of the most memorable places I've visited was the famous landmark of Macau, Ruins of St. Paul's which was originally built in the 16th century. It's the complex of St. Paul's College and the Cathedral of St. Paul, burned down and rebuilt many times before the last fire in 1835 left it beyond repair.

t

 This is how it looks like from the back & side.

There is a museum of Sacred Art and Crypt built at the bottom of the ruins where many religious artifacts can be seen. Admission to the museum is free everyday.

Nearby the Ruins of St. Paul's is the Senado Square. If you walk here, you would be given delicious almond cookies for tasting from each shop. After walking from one end to the other, you will certainly be full eating all the yummy almond cookies. We had dinner at a very nice restaurant selling pork chop buns here. Besides this restaurant, we also ate at the famous pork chop buns at Tai Lei restaurant. It's unbelievable that the queue was very long and we saw many reporters there that day.

Juicy pork chop buns.

My parents at the famous Tai Lei restaurant.

We also visited the Portugese Village the next day.

We visited the Macau Tower too. Getting around Macau by bus was very convenient as we had a map which shows all the bus routes and bus numbers. 

 Now comes the important part, why do I want to visit Macau again? It's simply because there are so many places in Macau which I haven't been to. The first place I would like to visit are the casinos. The beautiful architecture and lightings at night just mesmerizes me. When I was there, most of the casinos were still under construction and I managed to see the main entrances of some casinos.

I want to see the Venetian, ride the gondola and shop till I drop. I know I'll love it because it's just like Venetian at Las Vegas. The night view is so romantic and lovely.

The second place I would love to visit is The Ciy Of Dreams. It has lots of entertainment such as The House Of Dancing Water and The Dragon's Treasure. The former is a stage pool that holds 3.7 million gallons of water (about 5 Olympic sized swimming pools) , 239 water jets are built into the stage lifts for the waters to shoot up to 18 meters in height. Wow! Amazing! It's a must see for me when I'm in Macau. The latter is a 360 degrees screen where 4 Dragon Kings explore the mysterious powers of the Dragon Pearl. The video link for The Dragon's Treasure can be found here.

Last but not least, I would love to visit DreamWorks Experience at the Cotai Strip Resort. This place will definitely cheer me up. Seeing Shrek, Kung Fu Panda and The Madagascar gang brings out the kid in me. It's going to be so much fun mingling and taking photos with these characters!

While visiting all these places, I'll definitely grab some Portugese egg tarts, almond cookies and pork chop buns to satisfy my cravings. I really feel so excited and happy at the thought of all the tourist attractions. Once again, I would like to thank Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO) and Nuffnang Malaysia for organizing this contest. Thanks for reading my blog. I hope to be one of the 3 lucky winners. Wish me luck!

Giggling Jellyfish Baby Spa

On 14th September 2014, my family was at Giggling Jellyfish Baby Spa. Babies can swim, have fun and get a massage here. It is located at Ativo Plaza, Bandar Sri Damansara.

The photo below is for babies weighing 4.5kg and above to 5 months old. The water used is filtered warm water without chlorine or chemicals.

For babies who are 6 months until 3 years old, they use the bigger tub.

My son was afraid to get in the tub. So he just played with the bubbles.

There is also a private family room for the whole family to have fun together.

After the swim, babies can have their massage. Massages are very good for babies. At this center, all the ointment and lotion used are organic. 

If you are interested to buy the organic baby bath, baby shampoo, sunscreen, baby lotion or diaper ointment, you can get them here. 

The price or packages is as below. If you are interested to find out more, please call 03-62626762 or email them at info@gigglingjellyfish.com
