RAW Pressery Bloggers Haul, Chandigarh

RAW Pressery, India’s first and largest clean label F&B Company, hosted an exciting Bloggers Haul at the Taj Hotel Chandigarh on Sunday, 2 April and invited some of the most happening people around Chandigarh Tricity including bloggers.

The meet was scheduled at quite an early time slot considering 'a day should begin with goodness of dance plus exercise plus healthy meal.' Though I hate getting up early on Sunday morning, but since I'm a great fan of RAW Pressery juices, I was determined to attend the meet after receiving an exclusive invite.

The brand opted to conduct the meet-cum-get together in open space along the pool area that presented a beautiful view. I genuinely loved the idea of poolside venue that instantly rejuvenated everyone on a lovely morning.

As soon as we reached the venue, we got our registration done and were offered chilled juices as per our liking of flavours (I chose to have Apple)

The brand that has kept innovation on its forefront since its inception planned this meet aimed at ‘being healthy’ more convenient and to introduce their 100% farm fresh, cold pressed juices in 25 variants to Chandigarh’s discerning consumers.

The morning kick-started with stretching plus dancercise (dane+exercise) session with Navya Agarwal of the coveted Big Dance Centre, Delhi. Her session led the gathering through interesting ways to dance your weight of this summer.

The event also had Lifestyle blogger Pallavi Chaturvedi having Live Instagram Chat to share her experience of using the RAW Beauty Cleanse and also busted the myths around cleansing.

The event preceeded with an interactive session with the bloggers enjoying a healthy breakfast and RAW Pressery juices. I got to try the RAW Presssery’s newly introduced Coconut Water that will be available in local market pretty soon.

Not just health and fitness, the brand surprised us by putting up a grooming and beauty stall in association with MyGlamm which is a home-salon service recently taking up in Chandigarh Tricity. Interested ones got their nails, hair glammed up by the artists at the venue.

Beginning my day with a dose of light workout and healthy breakfast had been the best thing for my body and I wish to continue the similar regime to stay fit.

Cold pressed juices are emerging as one of the staple dietary alternatives for people to keep themselves active and energetic throughout the day and I really can’t have enough of them. I had been carrying them in my handbag to my work during scorching summer to keep myself hydrated. These are actually the tastiest choices for those who want to keep calories count in control while on their fitness regime.

Bloggers Meet at VLCC Chandigarh: #VLCCStyleStatements

Much like changes in fashion trends, a typical perception of 'beauty' has also dramatically evolved in past years. While there was a time when women with fuller body type, darker hair colour, and fairer skin tone were considered ideal; it's the era where the fancy for glowing skin and curvy feminine appeal has gained popularity as the symbol of beauty. And now the pressure to always look and feel good is not overpowering, courtesy VLCC.

VLCC is widely recognized for its unique approach towards beauty and wellness since its inception. Thanks to their therapies and treatments that many women have gained a lot of confidence in themselves. Those who think VLCC is primarily into slimming and weight loss practices might be glad to know that the brand offers an array of beauty and dermatological services for both men and women of any age group. I personally have experienced and reviewed their effective beauty session some time ago.

Just a few days back, I received an exclusive invite for #VLCCStyleStatements Bloggers Meet to be held at VLCC Wellness Centre, Chandigarh and I grabbed the opportunity with both hands to update myself with latest advancements in VLCC products and services :)

I had to struggle really hard to reach the venue in time on the scheduled day, as it was a working day for me, but I managed to ;)

Here is a glimpse of salon reception area with nice decor aesthetics to make customers feel good from the very moment they walk through the door.

To my delight, I got a warm welcome by courteous VLCC staff including Ms. Manveer, the Cluster Head for Wellness Services. The event began with an introduction to Ms. Sushmita Verma, the VLCC Category Manager for Beauty.

The bloggers had so much to ask about the common problems related to skin/hair/nails/health issues that almost everybody faces at some point of time, and the lady furnished some valuable pieces of information out of her expertise in the area. She made us well-informed about Visionergy, DNA Diet, Vampire Facelift and many other Dermat services in which the brand specializes.

While we jotted down some practically workable tips for attaining youthful, stress-free skin; the in-house dietitian Ms. Bipasha joined the conversation and apprised us with excellent ideas to enjoy a healthy lifestyle by incorporating right kind of fruits/veggies/liquid diet in appropriate quantity in our meals so as to boost our physical well-being.

It was great effort by Ms. Bipasha to recommend and get served a guilt-free snacks palette for us that was simply delectable ;)

 And that's my share ;)

While we least expected it, the hall echoed with the sound of applauds to welcome none other than Ms. Daphne Danielson, the international skin expert of VLCC. I was impressed by the way she conversed with every single person during Q&A session with a lot of poise and left no query unanswered. She'd been unquestionably knowledgeable and proved her worth by familiarizing us with pros n cons of popular therapies, treatments or products which are a rage in the industry for hair treatment, nail extension, dermatological services and everything else. I felt truly in love with her sense of humor that was an instant stress-buster for everyone ;)

A few bloggers got an experiential service as well wherein they got to pamper themselves with massages etc, but I couldn't avail as I was pressed for time. (better luck next time) ;)

After a fruitful afternoon spent at the VLCC Wellness Centre, I came back home richer in knowledge for self-wellness, building a stronger bloggers' network and holding a lovely goodie bag in my hand ;)

And now some more fun pictures from the memorable event...
