I've always been fond of pictures and the art of photography. I am amazed by how precious moments, memories and good times can be preserved with a camera. This is why I love having a photographer around to take pictures of my kids. They have this charm that brings out the best angles and rarest smiles that my kids possess that I would like to treasure forever. 
I would like to give my deepest appreciation to Pampers for setting up a photo booth which offers an opportunity to have family photos taken by professionals for FREE upon purchase of at least one Pampers.

Duty Free Philippines brings back so much great memories from my childhood from when I used to pick up my mom at the airport or back then when we were the ones coming from abroad and all of my  relatives are waiting for us with the excitement of  shopping for pasalubong at the Duty Free Philippines Fiestamall. 

I can still remember my family always eats at the Duty Free food court then we would always shop together and buy so much of what they called "pasalubong pack" that contains their favourite chocolates and for every two to three pasalubong packs purchased, you will get awesome freebies. I actually love collecting those wonderful M&M candy dispensers. 
What I love best about shopping at Duty Free Philippines is the Quality, Genuineness and Best Value. The price is cheaper at Duty Free compared outside and you are guaranteed that is authentic or imported.
For instance, as a chocolate lover I can tell the difference of the taste between the imported and locally made. 

There are so much more things I just love buying at Duty Free Philippines like cosmetics, perfumes, spam, corned beef and cheese balls. :-) 


So happy to have been invited recently by Duty Free Philippines (DFP) to check out the newly renovated Departure and Arrival area stores at the newly rehabilitated Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 1 in Pasay City. 

The DFP stores have been redesigned to achieve a more attractive, dynamic and functional retail environment to cater to the discriminating taste of its shoppers, made up of international travelers, tourists and balikbayans (arriving Filipino residents).   


And with the new Duty Free shops’ cutting-edge design, state-of-the-art interiors and amenities, DFP has also assembled an impressive line-up of the world’s best travel retail brands that cater to the discriminating tastes of international travelers.

PRESS RELEASE

Hearing this phrase from homemakers is not uncommon. As managers of households become more and more involved and active in other activities, juggling work and chores become an even bigger challenge for these dynamic individuals.

I have used Coffee Soap from Kala Milk already and was really impressed with the brand after trying them out, so I recently tried another variant called Peppermint soap.

Time is gold especially for a mom like me. Imagine having to balance my time being a full-time working mother of three young kids. I often feel like I can’t keep up with the household chores, such as cooking, cleaning, laundry and making sure my family’s needs are taken care of.

It’s impossible, right? No wonder I am completely exhausted and drained by the end of the day. But someone once told me that just because it seems impossible doesn’t mean it can’t be achieved. That with the right attitude and mindset, these chores can be done in a blink of an eye. From then on, I started to broaden my perspective and see to it that I make the most of my time.

With the help of CDO, I can prepare their baon in less than an hour without compromising in the quality of taste.


 With CDO’s Ulam Burger just around my kitchen counter. I can now prepare my sons’ favorite hamburger sandwich or burger steak meal in just a few minutes. Breaded beef and chicken products are also in the list of their amazing products. Whenever I cook my son’s favorite food, nothing can take the place of being paid by kisses, hugs and “I  Love you”



        
It’s nostalgic how CDO has been a part of me. It’s amazing how this brand and I grew a long way from where we started. They are now on their 40th anniversary and I am very glad to be a part of something that helped families bond over simple yet delicious meals.

To celebrate its 40th anniversary, CDO is having a promo for the whole family! One lucky participant will win P40,000.00 and 40 winners will each receive P2,000.00 worth of Gift Certificates from CDO.

I love taking pictures of my babies especially their firsts- first bath, first smiles & giggles, first time eating food, sitting up, crawling, etc 

Baby's first are always precious, and every mom surely wants to preserve those moments for life. 

However, even in this digital age where everything can be uploaded and stored online, there’s no guarantee that those photos are perpetually available for viewing or downloading. 

Printing your photos is another source of back up and you can never have enough copies of something valuable, especially memorable family portrait, baby's firsts, Birthdays, Christmas and all the wonderful memories to cherish forever! 

Although photos can get damaged and they can still get lost or destroyed, but for the most part it's a fairly solid backup- plus its better that you can touch it, display and store it in those cute picture frames or album and that's one sense of connection a digital photo cannot give. 

Because your baby’s first moments deserve to be treasured forever, the world’s leading diaper brand brings you the very first Pampers First Family Photo Shoot. 

Enjoy a free pictorial done by the professionals and get two wetproof family portraits that can last for up to 100 years.

As I grow older, I felt like I never really needed anyone else as long as I have these people with me.

No distance is greater than love; that a strong bond will bridge any gap, no matter how wide it may seem, and that a thousand miles can never conquer a strong bond.

More than a great outfit or a beautiful make-up, glowing skin turns heads.

It's that time of the year again when most students get the fired up excitement for the new school season, but it also proves to be one of the most challenging chapters. Whether a high school student gearing up for a well-balanced academics and club activities, a college student aiming for a dean's list, or an MA student going for the gold, storms of stress particularly during monthly period can wreak havoc on a woman's mood and comfort.

My kids had a great summer and spent most of the day swimming, playing outdoors and made the most out of every moment under the sun with the help of the special NIVEA SUN Care and Protection Kit that I received from Nivea Philippines. 
While it's important that kids enjoy outdoor activities, It's also important for me to protect my child's skin from harmful UV rays, so I make sure that I always slather on Nivea Kids Caring Sun Protection to prevent them from getting sunburn that can increase their risk of skin cancer later in life. 

What I love about NIVEA SUN care for kids: 

- Long-lasting and water resistant 
- Combines advanced protection expertise with all the mild care of NIVEA to protect children's delicate skin
- A safe and highly effective UVA/UVB filter system  immediately protects against sunburn
-Reduces the risk of UV-related skin allergies 
- It has Vitamin E that helps protect the skin against free radicals 
- Reinforces skin's own natural UV defenses. 
- Non-sticky formula 
- Keeps skin smooth and supple


Here are some Smart Tips on How To Take Care of your child's skin:

I always wanted to have a phone that I can do all I want- watch free, cable-quality TV, play, and surf and to be able to do it anytime and anywhere! 

Recently, I attended the launch of Starmobile's first ever line of digital TV phones. It has everything I want on a mobile gadget because these mobile hybrids allow you to watch Digital TV (DTV) channels for FREE anytime and anywhere DTV services are available. Gamers will also love the responsiveness of the system as well as the HD screen, something people who download a lot of videos will get a kick out of, too, apart from the huge memory available for use. 


You can share photos or videos on Instagram or Facebook instantly with capture moments using the great camera these come equipped with. 
You can choose from the three Mobile TV-Hybrids of Starmobile's Digital TV Phones:

Mothers are known to be homemakers. We are the one who is responsible to make our house not just a space to live in but also a place our family can call home. 

There are three key elements in building a peaceful home: the relationship between family members, the way the home is run and the atmosphere of the home itself. This is why it is important that our house is composed of all the best appliances, furniture and kitchenwares so that it can become something that will help us unite with our family.


I only want the best for my family which is why I am very glad that SM HOME has a wide variety of products that are on sale. I mean where can you get the best things to use in our home if not in the best place, right? 

I’ve been browsing through their website and found a lot of things that will surely add greatness to our home. I noticed that their cookwares are on sale. It is just in time since because I noticed how old our pans and other cooking utensils are.

Memo to the skin: Summer is almost over so it’s time to go back to fairer, smoother skin.

After months of soaking in the sun, the next goal for many ladies is to go back to their fair skin and regain the skin moisture they may have lost from too much exposure to the sun. But doing so can take a long time.

Dermclinic, the pioneering dermatological center, takes this memo to heart and brings to the Philippines the revolutionary NuDerm Advance GloWhite Kit.

Promising to make skin visibly whiter in just seven days, NuDerm Advance GloWhite Kit is fortified with powerful yet safe whitening components that inhibit the skin’s melanin production while giving intense moisture to rejuvenate skin.

One Lightning Corporation is a Filipino-owned Corporation established last year in 2014. Engaging in the Marketing of Beauty, Skin, Personal Care Products, Food Supplements & Healthy Beverages through a unique and powerful distribution method designed to provide exceptional income opportunity to dealers for both local and international market.

I was really hesitant at first to write about One Lightning Corporation products after hearing about their scam issues although I think it has already been resolved and nevertheless I still find these products they sent me very interesting to try.

I'm not pure Filipina but my heart is 100% pure Pinay especially when it comes to snacks. I grew up nibbling Filipino tsitsirya. Those tasty and crunchy uniquely Filipino bites are timeless and will never grow old in every food-loving Juan’s palate. 
 

Those who crave for their good old favorites can enjoy Jack ‘n Jill’s latest offering, Chik’n Skin ni Mang Juan with Suka flavor. 
This delectable treat perfectly combines the flavor of popular fried chicken skin and the sour and spicy punch of vinegar.
