Melilea International(S) Pte Ltd had its Annual New Year Party at Serangoon Country Club on 30 Jan 2016.  I was invited to attend as an influencer/blogger by The Influencer Network.

The company was started in 2002 by Datuk Dr Alan Wong and Datuk Dr Stella Chin, who both uphold a simple faith of leading and helping people to transform their health and beauty from inside out while achieving successful new lives.

This year, the party theme is "Care is Love" while "Transforming People's Lives".

The registration started at 10am and the party would start at 11am.  People started to come in before 11am to grab good seats near to the stage.




I got there around 10.50am and while people were strolling in, I quickly grabbed a photo with the cute Cai Shen Ye, 财神爷, commonly known as God of Fortune mascot.


So glad to see William, lifestyle blogger and Assistant Director of The Network Influencer and meet long time friend and lifestyle blogger, Celestia.  Of course, we got to take a group photo together with God of Fortune for good luck and HUAT AH!



MELILEA products emphasize on a comprehensive and pure organic philosophy. From farming, cultivation, research and development, production and quality control, all procedures meet the stringent requirements of 5-star organic classification.








Melilea International has also created their own range of beauty and skincare products, to achieve beauty not just internally but outside as well.







The company also set up a table so that guests can try some of the products.


The nutritious botanical powder was said to be great for people who do not like to eat vegetables.


It consisted of many types of vegetables blended together.


I tried it on its own and although I was ok with the taste of vegetable in my drink, I preferred to mix it with the Apple Orchard powder which was a blend of fruits so that it tasted fruitier.  People could also mixed it with the soya milk powder for an 3-in-1 drink.



The two emcees announced the arrival of the two founders and a lot of the guests stood up to shook hands with them.




And the party began with a dance performance!



Just look at the colourful costumes!


After the dance performance, Datuk Dr Stella Chin went on stage to update the guests on the lineup of past global corporate event highlights and corporate social responsibilities highlights in helping disabled children and senior citizens.  It was inspiring to hear Datuk Dr Stella Chin volunteering her time to care for the needy even though she is busy travelling around for work.


She had also written a book on personality and profession and hope to motivate ladies especially to achieve success on both of these factors.


The company also presented their donation os S$50,000 to NYPC (National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre) as its support in Charity to reach their love out to the needy society in Singapore.


Datuk Dr Alan Wong also did a talk on their company's business concepts and philosophy.


Afterwhich, we were treated to another round of dance entertainment.





One of the highlights of the party would definitely be the Lion Dance performance.  Everyone was so excited when the two lions appeared.






The two founders wishing the guests a Happy Chinese New Year!


The must do event every CNY is Lo Hei!  Pardon my photo taking angles as it was simply too crowded to get close to the table.




Datuk Dr Alan Wong also gave out 福袋 for good luck and I managed to get one from him.  Guess what is inside?  :)


Melilea produced a CNY video clip to wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year.  Check it out at  https://youtu.be/NKuwE1uOAsQ

Even heard of getting cash back while you shop?  This is an interesting concept which rewards shoppers when they purchase items online.  One company which embraces this concept is ShopBack.  ShopBack invited me to try out their concept and below is my review.

So how does this work for customers?  Some people might wonder "is this too good to be true?!"

YES, this is definitely for real!  ShopBack gets the best deals and discounts on 300+ stores for customers who shop from www.shopback.sg and on top of this, each customer is given a cashback.  Which means when a customer clicks on a merchant found on www.shopback.sg, he/she will be redirected to the merchant online store.

When he/she buys items listed in the online stores, and if there is a discount code for customer to make use of, he/she gets a discount off the items plus cashback, which translate to extra, unlimited savings.

Wondering why ShopBack can offer cashback to customers?  That is because the merchants which are listed on the website reward Shopback with a commission for referring customers to shop on their sites.  Instead of keeping all the rewards, ShopBack shares them with customers.



It is so simple!

First of all, look for discount codes at ShopBack, from the merchants you want to purchase items from.  For example:




Some of my top picks are Zalora, Reebonz and Under Armour.

If you are still searching for the right attires or dresses for upcoming festivals like Chinese New Year and Valentine's day, by using a Zalora coupon, you get to enjoy savings immediately compared to if you shop in retail outlets.




You can also check out the Chinese New Year promotions for many fashion deals.



For those who want to buy branded items for yourself or as gifts, ShopBack offers deals from other fashion stores such as Reebonz promo codes so that you can enjoy some discounts off.




Nowdays it is so easy to shop online and on top of that, you can get discounts off and cashback when you shop on www.shopback.sg.

Customers get cashback in their ShopBack account within 48 hours.  Customers can cash out to their PayPal or bank account at the end of every month once they have reached redeemable Cashback of S$10.

Try it today!
