Looking sharp, Aud!

HAHAHAH ok awful pun.

The other day I was invited to a Sharp workshop alongside Cheesie, Sixthseal and Red Mummy.

This was the day I had no GPS and got lost for one hour because my directions are terrible like that T_______T I felt so horrible being late haih T____T Sharp team please forgive me!!

Luckily I got there to still catch the bulk of it.  If you didn’t already know, Sharp has developed a range of beauty products using Plasmacluster Ion Technology.  They call it Beauty but it’s really also related to Health!

Tell you how it works.  Quite interesting one!

In nature, positive and negative ions are released naturally due to natural processes. (I’m aware there’s three ‘nature’s in this sentence.)  These ions are good and below I tell you why!

Ions are more present in natural surroundings than cities because of all the pollution we have.  So basically we’re living in an environment devoid of these ions which can be harmful to our health.

The Sharp Plasmacluster Ion technology uses plasma discharge to break airborne water molecules into positive and negative ions!  These ions collect water molecules around them and form “clusters” called hydroxyl radicals.

The hydroxyl radicals are very unstable so they will try to grab hydrogen molecules from any airborne contaminant they meet (dust, dust mites, virus, bacteria, etc) to stabilize themselves, thus destroying the contaminant D:

And tadah you get clean, non-dry air!

Demonstration of the Plasmacluster Ion Generator.

Gets rid of bad smells and germs, AND delivers humidity to a dry aircon room.  I love this product!  I’m always falling sick and have terrible sinus issues and allergies so this is like a gift from heaven!  I’m buying this for real.

The Sharp rep sprayed ammonia on a tissue, then a special chemical to show the presence of the ammonia (normally it’s clear).  He also made Huai Bin sniff the tissue to be sure hahaha.  It smells of stale pee wtf.

Then he held it above the ionizer.

Within seconds the ammonia faded off the tissue!  Then he let us smell and there was NO SMELL left D: D:

I WANT THIS IN MY BEDROOM.

Then the Sharp rep demonstrated their Hair Dryer.

Comes in pink and white, good market research, guys.  Lol.

It’s no secret that hair dryers can really damage your hair but bo pian what to do!  I usually try to minimize the damage by blowing my hair with cold air but it doesn’t really help much.  With normal dryers, water molecules evaporate off the hair and the hair becomes dry. 🙁

But with Sharp’s Plasmacluster hair dryer, it releases ions which capture water molecules on the hair surface, and hair moisture is retained!

Moisturized hair is healthier and more manageable hair.  No more dry damaged hair and split ends!

They did a live demonstration on us!

Got my hair washed first.  There’s nothing like getting your hair washed and styled. ^^

They split out hair into two, then blew each section dry with a regular dryer and a Sharp dryer to compare the difference.

My hair is really really fine and thin so no obvious difference is discernible in pictures.  However, I could feel the difference when I ran my fingers through both sections – the section dried by regular dryer would have little kinks and slight tangles which stopped my fingers, but the Sharp-dried hair was totally smooth and the hair parted so easily!

This is Cheesie’s hair up close.  The left side is done by the regular dryer, right is by Sharp.  Flyaway hairs are more obvious on the left!

The machine I showed earlier is the largest meant for use in big spaces and I want it cos I’m kiasu lol, but if you don’t need such a big appliance, here’s the entire Plasmacluster Beauty Range.

Clockwise from top left…

• Ion Generator – covers 10m square of space, good for studies, bedrooms, closets or kitchens!
• Mobile ion generator (small blue one) – for when you’re on the go!  Battery lasts 4 hours and you can bring it with you when you’re out and about in your handbag.  Kinda want this too.  I like knowing I can breathe in clean good air wherever I am!
• Desktop ion generator – comes with water tank for added moisture.  Good for offices I’d think.
• Hair Conditioning Dryer – blows high density air, cold and hot air options and moisturizes hair.  Also keeps hair from getting static electricity!
• Bedside generator – Put it on your nightstand or clamp it to your headboard to give clean air while you sleep
• Car generator – charges with the cigarette socket and it fits into the car cup holder!

OMG I want ALL the gadgets lolol.  For a healthier prettier cuter me. ^^

Generators are all available now and the hair dryer will be available end of October onwards.  Can’t wait to get mineeee.
