Flower power

THE flower, a sign of beauty and a symbol of grace; is also magical with its ability to speak to the soul in a way which words cannot express. The bloom, colours and its pleasant scent do wonders to lift the mood and comfort the heart regardless of its surrounding. But there's much more to this extraordinary plant.
AmorePacific Research Institute discovered the close relation between flowers and a woman's beauty. Advanced research was then carried out on various flowers; from the root to its stem and petals to discover the amazing power and energy that the flowers possess. Findings reveal that flowers contain moisturising and skin-nourishing ingredients that not only provide nourishment to the skin but also moisturise and balance oil production to maintain vibrant skin.
Years of research concluded with the inception of a unique innovation and formulation that use floral extraction to reinvent beauty. AmorePacific named its innnovation Mamonde, a brand that inspires feminine beauty with flowers through its flower science technology.
"Mamonde's skincare is the first of its kind in the cosmetics market as it uses only flowers as its key ingredient in the formulation for all its products," said Celine Diong, brand general manager of Mamonde Malaysia.
Among Mamonde's star products include The First Energy Essence/Serum, Cover Powder Cushion, Age Control Power Eye Cream, Moisture Ceramide Cream, Rose Water Toner and Floral Hydro Ampoule Toner.
