I have been battling oily skin since forever. And because of my skin type, acnes, pores, blackheads are a norm in my daily life. Therefore, since I cannot change my skin type, I can only control the oil it produces and combat the imperfections. I try to use products which is suitable for my skin such as foam cleansers, aqua fast absorbing moisturisers, matte makeup products etc.
I have heard of collagen drinks to battle those imperfections I have mentioned and there are a vast variety in the market. But, honestly, I have never tried one before because I wasn't sure of its effectiveness plus I am always very skeptical of what I put into my body. Until, I came to this event with Lennox.
I have definitely seen this brand around for some time. The iconic big bottle that I usually see in SaSa or pharmacies but never really read too much into it. However, after some explanation and more reading, LENNOX produce nutritional supplements of the highest quality to meet health and beauty requirements. Backed by continuous research and development, their products are made using natural, organic and carefully selected ingredients that are scientifically proven to be safe and effective for well-being.
LENNOX uses aqueous marine collagen, which is 100% water soluble and has a low molecular weight for better digestibility. Compared to conventional collagen, our collagen has a shorter bond structure that dissolves readily and is absorbed more easily by the body. As we all know, collagen is key in maintaining our beauty. However, when age catches up, the collagen production reduces so we need to pump collagen into our body to maintain our beauty and firm up our skin.
I was starting to be interested because it's made of natural ingredients and doesn't seem harmful to the body but can make me prettier instead =)
LENNOX has 5 products in their collagen range:
LENNOX FirmUp+ EX (For combined effect of Whitening + Hydration)
FirmUp+ EX is specially formulated to give your skin the double benefits of whitening and hydration. Packed with antioxidants such as sakura essence extract and grape seed extract to fight free radicals, your skin is protected from signs of aging. Sakura essence possesses whitening properties that help to lighten uneven skin pigmentation caused by UV rays.
LENNOX FirmUp+ Forte Gold (For Hydration)
Enriched with Ceramide, FirmUp+ Forte Gold is the perfect choice to maintain healthy and hydrated skin. Ceramides are lipid molecules found in high concentrations within cell membranes in the upper layer of skin. They hold skin cells together, forming a protective layer that plumps the skin and holds moisture. They also act as a barrier against bacteria and environmental pollutants. FirmUp+ Forte Gold with Ceramide transforms dry and sallow skin by improving the moisture-locking function of the skin. This slows down the effects of aging and stress leaving your skin moist and hydrated.
LENNOX FirmUp+ Men (To Fight Oily Skin)
Not forgetting the men, LENNOX FirmUp+ Men is specially formulated for men who lead busy lives and are looking for a fuss-free skin regime that works. Fortified with Cactus Extract & Maritime Pine Bark extract, it helps reduce excessive oil secretion and keeps skin feeling hydrated. The unique powder + liquid formula ensures that total freshness and effectiveness of the ingredients are preserved. The antioxidants used are in powder form because antioxidants in liquid form are easily oxidized even if they remain sealed and unopened.
LENNOX Collagen 5000 (Low-Calorie, Easy-to-use collagen powder)
If you are looking for a low-calorie and convenient way of consuming collagen, choose LENNOX Collagen 5000. It is made from high quality fish collagen peptide originated from Japan, enhanced with food based beauty ingredients like Coenzyme Q10, Ceramide, Amino Acid (Arginine) and Vitamin C for your daily beauty needs that dissolves readily in any beverage. The best part is, it gets easily absorbed by the body. You can mix LENNOX Collagen 5000 with your favorite juice, milk or yogurt and you get a healthy, delicious and guilt-free treat. I'll even show you how you can also mix this into your souffle batter.
LENNOX FirmUp+ (For Whitening)
Newly upgraded with whitening essence, LENNOX FirmUp+ is suitable for those who want fairer skin. The addition of CoQ10 and Grape Seed Extract, a strong antioxidant, help protect skin from damaging UV rays that may cause aging. The unique powder + liquid formula ensures that total freshness and effectiveness of the ingredients are preserved. With LENNOX FirmUp+, you can fully benefit from the effectiveness of antioxidants because you add them in right before consuming.
The Aqueous Marine Collagen used in FirmUp+ is 100% water soluble with low molecular weight and excellent digestibility. Unlike Conventional Collagen which has high molecular structure that will not easily dissolve completely and not well-absorbed by the body.
During the event hosted at ABC Cooking Studios, Gardens by Lenox and The Butterfly Project, we learnt about baking berry souffle cheese with the LENNOX Collagen 5000 powder! It was really fun and it's my first time learning baking.
One thing awesome is that, ABC has prepped all ingredients at our station and we just need to pour and mix them.
My first time beating an egg white with a mixer which turned out to be this fluffy meringue!
If the meringue doesn't fall when you hold it up straight, then it's right.
The star ingredient of the day- the LENNOX Collagen 5000 powder. A cup of goodness was poured into the mixer.
And mix it all together!
Fill the cupcake liners with the batter.
And it's ready to be baked! Into the oven you go.
Now, it's time to make the berry cheese cream.
Add another cup of the star product-LENNOX 5000 powder into the batter.
And taste it. Yumms
Pipe it on the souffle and ready to munch into!
I cannot believe. It was really delicious and not only it can fill my tummy but with the collagen powder, it can make me pretty as well. That's life right. Eat your favourite food while maintaining your beauty =)
So so proud of my creation thanks to LENNOX for arranging this baking class and The Butterfly Project for the collaboration!
August 2019 is earmarked as LENNOX Collagen Month and the tagline for this campaign is ‘Love Your Skin’.
