Cherry Blossom – Add This Korean Super Ingredient to Your Skincare Routine NOW!

 “In the cherry blossom's shade,

there's no such thing

as a stranger.”

― Kobayashi Issa

NATIONAL, 20 APRIL, 2022 (TGN): Cherry Blossom! Korea’s best-kept beauty treasure. In this season of full bloom, let us indulge into this divine temptation of falling cherry petals. Each one of them cause a ripple of euphoria in the river of sensations which reverberate into itself before finally coming to a beautiful end.  Imagine visiting Korea in the cherry blossom season, I bet it’s definitely a part of your bucket list. Who wouldn’t like to float under the frothy candy floss clouds and watch the cherry blossom petals raining down? Forming an experience like a dreamy heaven during the night, when the moon illuminates the flowers, it converts the place into a glowing fairytale. However, apart from the spring’s bubble gum blooms, these fragile petals are edible and have a lot of other benefits. They go into everything from tea to macarons to skincare products.

Benefits of adding cherry blossom to your skincare?

Since, cherry petals are a part of the rose family, they have some amazing skincare properties which makes it a powerful botanical across the world. These pretty little flowers are full of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, making them a godsend for those with sensitive skin. This elixir is soothing to irritated skin, as it reduces redness and promotes healing. It also smoothens skin and fights hyperpigmentation, owing to its high concentration of Vitamin C. Sakura, as it is also known, helps repair damaged skin with its rich content of essential fatty acids. Last but not the least, cherry blossoms extracts boost collagen synthesis which helps in increasing skin elasticity, improves smoothness and inhibit decrease in pore size. All of this makes it an amazing all-rounder unique ingredient that’s surely worth investing in.

Products to try

Pick from a dirt dissolving cleansing balm, ultra-light moisturizing gel, super creamy, luxurious pink clay mask, a gently peeling overnight mask and an intense brightening essence!

TiE Mumbai hosted a conversation with Harish Mehta decoding “The Maverick Effect”

Anupam Mittal in conversation with Harish Mehta decoding “The Maverick Effect”

Mumbai, April 6, 2022 (TGN)– TiE Mumbai hosted an exclusive mixer and networking evening yesterday with its Board members, Charter Members, Industry leaders and Mumbai Unicorns in attendance. The highlight of the evening was the conversation between Harish Mehta, Founder & Chairman- Onward Technologies and Past President & Board Member of TiE Mumbai and Anupam Mittal, Founder - People Group and Shaadi.com, decoding Harish’s newly released book “The Maverick Effect”.

Harish Mehta is a co- founder and the first elected president of NASSCOM. He has been an IT industry veteran and an entrepreneur himself. This book is a fascinating narrative of Harish Mehta’s personal life and his work intertwined with the genesis of NASSCOM, the evolution of the IT industry, the Indian economy and our Nation. 

TiE Mumbai - Board Members & Charter Members

When NASSCOM was formed, the software export was around $ 50 m and the business was very difficult to sustain and operate. Software export has now grown to $ 178 b. The book methodically explains the manner in which NASSCOM went about eliminating the hurdles in the way of business and obtained Government buyin by making them see the vision about the impact software export would have on the Indian economy.

The book highlights some of the pivotal role of key government secretaries and ministers (DoT, StPI, communications ministry, finance, PMO etc) who worked tirelessly for the progress of the industry and the nation thereby. The Government of India thus helped build the IT industry with these Tech and IT entrepreneurs. Interesting stories and anecdotes from the pre liberation India to the today’s digitally ahead India have been interspersed throughout the book.

NASSCOM started with a belief “Aapna Time bhi aayega”. During the 80s, when the IT industry was at a nascent stage, our current account situation was appalling. We have come a long way since then. With the unparallel growth of the IT industry we are in a strong foreign exchange situation now and have created immense employment opportunities for the youth of the country. The Brand India Inc. created by the IT industry has helped every single industry globally. All these aspects have been brilliantly articulated in this book.

Today India is unstoppable, entering a golden era of growth. We are on a trajectory of becoming a Global leader. This book is highly recommended to every single Indian citizen to understand how India has reached this pinnacle of success. It is a treasure house of inspiring stories that will make one extremely proud.

Today Entrepreneurship in India is possible because of the policies that were set and have come out during this era. The internet and digital age start-ups have NASSCOM to thank for!Ends

Shri.

India is a world leader with 14 out of 15 diamonds processed globally being done here, and immense growth potential exists for the Gems and Jewellery sector. The growth strategy encompasses better technology, smarter and competitive value addition, skill upgradation and standardisation in quality.

It will truly represent and position the ‘Make in India’ ideology worldwide and is indeed a welcome initiative.”

Ms. Kranti Nagvekar, Managing Director of KNC Services mentioned, "There wasn't any exclusive, independent machinery show in India. This show will take care of the huge need gap and will benefit the entire Indian jewelry manufacturing industry plus the countries around us. It will help put Indian jewelry machinery companies on the world map. JMAIIE will witness close to 10,000 visitors during the four-day expo. JMAIIE truly positions, ‘Make in India initiative’ and is poised to become the largest sourcing hub for jewelllery machinery and allied products worldwide."

Mr. Gianluigi Barettoni, President of AFEMO said, “AFEMO, a prestigious Italian association of Jewellery machinery companies is elated to extend its support to JMAIIE. It is well known that the bond between Italian technology producers and Indian jewellery producers is strong and long-standing. AFEMO is proud of representing the world's most important brands in the sector of technology for jewellery production.” Ends

 

 

#No To Chewing Tobacco - Actor, Producer Mukesh Rishi becomes Bhookha Haathi Health Warrior!

Mukesh Rishi as Bhookha Haathi Health Warrior

National, 2nd April 2022 (TGN): Actor, producer Mukesh Rishi joins hands with Bangalore-based alternative foods and health-based nutraceutical-tech company Bhookha Haathi to endorse their range of 100% natural health-promoting products.

Mukesh Rishi is an Indian actor and film producer who works primarily in Hindi and Telugu films. He has done 180 films in 8 different languages. The 65-year-old actor got his first break in Hindi cinema in 1988 and has since, established himself as a leading character actor. He is a health and fitness enthusiast and has strong aversion towards tobacco and non-tobacco-based harmful chewables. 

In the past, he has been offered many brand endorsements for unhealthy chewable products but has always denied them as he doesn’t believe in promoting something that he, himself doesn’t consume.

According to Kusum Bhandari, Co-Founder - Bhookha Haathi, “Currently, the main focus of our brand is our proprietary dry fruit & nut refresher which is World’s First Healthy Chew and a perfect replacement to tobacco and non-tobacco-based harmful chewables. It also works well as digestive and has many health benefits such as lowering cholesterol, anti-infective, anti-ageing etc. We found Mr. Mukesh Rishi to be the perfect fit as our brand promoter as he stands for the same values as our brand does.”

Bhookha Haathi was founded on the vision to create products that help solve the widespread problem of chewable tobacco that continues to be a prevalent vice in modern India. It has a vision for 2050, where it would want to reduce the consumption of tobacco by more than 50 percent. Also, there is a need to limit the consumption of unhealthy pan masalas and oral fresheners that are full of additives & preservatives and cannot claim to be 100 percent natural.

“With actor, producer Mukesh Rishi as Bhookha Haathi Health Warrior, the company aims to reach masses to create a much greater impact in society with its Rs.2 sachet. With this launch, Bhookha Haathi will be the first nutraceutical company to launch its product at this price point in the healthcare segment”, according to Abhimanyu Rishi, Co-Founder – Bhookha Haathi, “Bhookha Haathi believes that healthcare shouldn’t only be available to people who can afford it but should also be available to people who really need it.”

Other products from Bhookha Haathi stable include their proprietary caffeine-free chickpea filter coffee which is a healthy replacement to regular caffeinated coffee and a range of raw and wild honey.
