Loyalty seldom exists where rewards are absent. Adherents to particular products or services constantly need evidence that they have opted for the best. Loyalty cards meet this requirement. They enable the loyal customer or client to access a set of special privileges. VLCC has joined the club, offering the `Way Of Life' card for its patrons. A member will be part of one of three categories Nuvo, Gold and Platinum. The rewards will vary from one to another. Founder Vandana Luthra, actor Trisha Krishnan and Aishwarya Danush were present during the launch of the card at VLCC's workstation in Indira Nagar. The health and beauty services provider also unveiled a hair treatment package that is "based on resources from the sea". Rebalance Treatment wages war on the excess sebum. A mix of micro-nutrients, algae spirulina platensis and salvia officinalis essential oil are used to check the sebum levels.

Henna tattoo kits for chemotherapy hair and eyebrow loss
An unavoidable and unfortunate side effect of most chemotherapy drug treatments is hair loss. In making the best of a bad situation, Chemo Chicks features tattoo kits to adorn your head, re-create your eyebrows and have some fun with your temporary baldness. The product, Earth Henna Body Painting Kits, is based on Mehndi, the art of henna painting on the body, practiced for thousands of years in India, Africa and the Middle East. For a bit of fun folklore, Chemo Chicks shares that the crushed leaves of the henna plant used to make henna are believed to bring love, luck and prosperity. Henna tattoos are painless and not permanent -- the henna tattoos fade gradually over weeks. According to the Earth Henna tattoo kit product description, the henna paste lasts 4-6 weeks once mixed; contains enough henna to do two head tattoos or many eyebrows; and comes with head patterns and eyebrow stencils -- or you can create your own.
