Hiyee!  Oh yes, I am still alive my dearies!  Sorry for being MIA (again) for more than a week.  Work is a bit lighter now but I think my body's trying to make up for all those nights I haven't been sleeping much.  I fall asleep right after I get home, wake up a few hours after only to shower and sleep again.  I know I have tons of backlogs and hopefully, I'll get back to my usual blogging soon.

Caronia: Tropical Doll Collection

Image
The weather's getting pretty messed up lately.  It's been 3 days that it's been raining during late afternoon/early evening after being scorching hot during the midday.  Is summer over? Nah, I don't wanna think so for I haven't been able to fully enjoy summer yet.   Good thing Caronia came up with their newest collection, Tropical Doll ,  to help us  still be in full-tropical mode despite the wonky weather. Tropical Doll Tangerine (Red Orange) Kiwi (lime green) Blueberry (true blue) Named after fruits, these lovely colors are succulent-looking and definitely nothing short of being summery.  So the next time you'd want to feel that beach babe-vibe despite the not-so summery weather, swipe these lovely colors on your tips and be the Tropical Doll that you really are! Caronia is available in all leading department stores, supermarkets, drugstores and health and beauty shops nationwide. SRP: Php3...

CalChews: Calcium You Can Chew

Image
Honestly, I'm not fond of taking supplements or any sort of medication.  I'd rather be sick for days than pop a pill.  Why?  I hate the after taste.  I also find it difficult to swallow anything that looks and tastes like medicine.  So yeah, I don't even take vitamins...not unless my mom would insist (or harass me to do so!) or only when I am starting to feel like getting sick.  I even resorted to IV-Gluta before just because I started to hate the plastic-like after taste. Good thing there are supplements and vitamins that come in chewable forms.  But not all of them tastes good.  So just imagine how ecstatic I am when I heard about CalChews! CalChews is a breakthrough calcium supplement from Pascual Consumer Healthcare Corp. (PCHC) of Pascual Laboratories Inc.  CalChews come in soft and chewy candy flavors of Rich Chocolate and Creamy Caramel, and aside from that, it has Vitamins D and K for strengthening the bones and protecti...

Say Goodbye to Scars with Hiruscar!

Image
Do you have scars?  Well, I do!  And I think most of us have, since we might have gotten ourselves into little (or even big) accidents at one point or another.  As little kids, we often get cuts, scrapes or bumps from being too playful.  And we, adults, are no exception. We can still get scars from surgeries, acne or even from simply being careless (like me!) Scars are proof of what we have been through.  Some consider their scars to be special, even refer to them as remembrance.   But to most people, these can be embarrassing and annoying.  Of course, there are a lot of options to remove scarring.  There’s dermabrasion, chemical peels, laser skin resurfacing, plastic surgeries and even filler injections.  But not only they are expensive, they can also be painful and can have a long recovery time. Good thing there are topical creams/ointments that can also help to improve the appearance of scars making them l...

Zen Zest Eau de Toilettes: High-quality fragrances at an affordable price!

Image
I've always loved perfumes.  Prepping up will never be complete without a spritz or two (even more!) of my favorite scent. Retouching includes another round of spritzing, so as expected, I can finish up a bottle in less than 2 months.  And since I alternate scents, I definitely have to set aside a chunk of my budget to keep up with this "addiction." I did try to look for a way to save some moolah by checking out some of those imitations, but never really liked how it would smell after some time. I even tried making my own, by mixing fragrance oils and transferring them to atomizer sprays but eventually grew tired of it.  So when I got an invite to a Zen Zest event where we will be presented with their Eu de Toilettes, I just knew it will put an end to my wallet's predicament but not to my love with scents. The event was held in Chateau 1771 at El Pueblo in Ortigas. It's a stone's throw away from where I live but I still came in late. Yeah, I'm...
