NEW YEARS RESOLUTION….

Many of us have already done the switch to organic foods whenever we get the chance (ignoring late night munchies of course). After much celeb buzz, organic hair colour is now the must do for people that want to look hot and be healthy. So why should we ditch the chemicals and switch to organic? For you: Say bye bye to the Ammonia found in old style colour – the very same stuff people clean toilets with - yuk! Instead of attacking the hair, organic products gently open up the cuticle. That means no more skin irritations, burning sensations or toxic smells. Woo!
- You get a much longer lasting effect, more natural shades and shinier hair than old school colours. Plus they maintain the balance of protein and moisture so that fragile wimpish hair becomes strong and shiny. For your friendly hairstylist, shampooist and even hair sweepers:-It’s way healthier for the clever people that spend their days wrist deep in colours to beautify us. According to the World Health Organization, hairdressers have higher risks of developing cancer when they have worked with hair dyes for five years or more (April 2008 The Lancet Oncology).   Organic colour is available at Emmanuel F…

Lisa S Model and Channel V VJ gives her 2010 lowdown...

Any New Years Resolutions?

I stay away from them as I've never made one that I've kept. Too much pressure! 

What are your hopes for 2010?

Career wise, I want to develop my TV hosting. Personally, I hope stuff stays the way they are right now, because its all good.
Where are your favourite shops and salons in HK?

My favorite shops in Hong Kong are the boutiques that run up down Staunton and Elgin street in Soho. My favorite salon is Hair Culture in Central.

What do you like to do at home?

I love hanging out with our three dogs, Buddy, Chiquita and  Renee (from HK Dog Rescue) and watching DVD's while we gorge on cheese, salami, and olives.

 Marvelous Mauritius

Arriving at the Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita, the first thing you notice is your blood pressure instantly dropping as you become cocooned by total luxury. Everything that you see looks picture perfect and then when you come to touch or taste, it all somehow gets even better. The cooled scented hand towels smell so good you want to cover your face in them, the room service has better oven baked pizzas than you find in Naples and the bedding makes you feel like you are floating in heaven. The most pressing daily decision is whether to travel around the blue, fish filled lagoons either on golf buggies or on bicycles, making it feel like you are staring in a 5 star tropical version of Wisteria Lane.

 

There is something for everyone from loved up honeymooners to parents in need of some TLC. The spa is a sight to behold nestled amongst mangroves. The Mauritian Fusion Therapy mixes lymphatic drainage, ayurveda, meridien therapy and reflexology to pump up your energy, release toxins and balance water levels. Well behaved floppy haired youngsters flock to the action packed fairy tale Hobbit Village where little ones learn to bake cookies before burning off wild energy in the playroom on the Wii. Young adults have their own ‘hood’ packed with internet, Xboxes and even a disc jockey turntable. I challenge anyone young or old to tire of these fab fun zones.The Golf Club designed by golf master Ernie Els is a 7,580-yard, 18-hole championship course woven into the tropics. Complimentary daily one hour golf clinics are perfect for beginners if you can tear yourself away from your sun lounger to see where your other half is spending his days! Or if you tire of slurping mocktails by the beach (which is frankly speaking very doubtful) there are daily spinning, aerobics and stretching classes.

 

The Four Seasons Mauritius at Anahita really is really a little slice of heaven. Beau Champ, Mauritius Tel.(230) 402 3100, www.fourseasons.com/mauritius

Beauty and Brains

Did you know that the word Spa is from an acronym originating from the Roman Empire standing for "Sanus Per Aquam" meaning "health through water”. Take advice from more simple times and have your very own hot tub while you build your own empire whether it be your family or career.
