MOMS ON THE GO AND BOSSING VIC SOTTO CHOOSES CHOOKS-TO-GO

I have been a work-outside-of-the-home mom, a stay-at-home mom and a work-from-home mom~ Through it all, I think I can be the only best mother if I am at my best. And I think that's how a mom is - wanting all the best for her family.

May it be in expressing our love up to the nitty gritty in serving only the best meals and food choices. But sometimes you know, being an on the go mom can be stressful especially when it comes to choosing take-away food. I'm sure if you are a mum, you would want to feed your family with healthy choices and as much as possible stay away from fast-food.

ALL ABOUT SKINSTATION PH

Those were the times when the diode treatment was just on my wish list. Currently, I am now one of their avid client who patronise their effective and affordable services and products.

With that said, let me walk you through about SkinStation, how they started and all about the man behind this successful company.

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT, I FOUND A CANDY THAT'S YUMMY BUT HEALTHY

In the family, the only one who doesn't have sweet tooth is me. I prefer the "maaalat" ones over sweets. Which only means that the daughter and the husby got sweet tooths! Chocolates, candies, ice cream and cake. You name it, we got it! Yup, that's the name of the game in our home.

We all know that everything that is too much is bad, and that's where my role as a mum comes in. Yes, the dad and the kiddo can eat sweets but as long as they will eat it in moderation. So even if it's everyday, as long as everything is in moderation and they know their limit, then we are good. ( I don't actually have rules in the house that says its "bawal" because I have always believed that the more you prohibit someone on something, the more na that person would have the feeling or the urge to eat/do something). 

I think, if kids are the one who's reading this post - Yes, they would definitely be thinking that I am a very"cool" mum hah! :)

Few days ago I have discovered VITA CUBES.

Okay, so I always have this perception that Vita Cubes is a Vitamin. But NO mums, it isn't. It's actually a candy. Kaya pala Tammy has been asking me to buy her a pack one time when we were in the grocery. I didn't buy her at that time 'cause we still have a lot of her vitamins in stock at home.

(Hindi naman nya sinabi na its a candy...) sinisi ko pa daw talaga sa bata yung hindi ko pagbasa and pag lagay ng atensyon. haha!

SO WHAT IS VITA CUBES

Vita Cubes is a delicious and nutritious cube-shaped jelly candies that's high in vitamins and minerals. 

Here are so many reasons why I am now a fan of Vita Cubes : 

• It comes in five different fruit flavors – orange, strawberry, grape, apple and mango. 
• It is fortified with essential vitamins and minerals that are important for growing children. 
• Each cube is packed with Vitamins A, B, C and E, plus Lysine and Zinc. But I have to note that these are still candies (and not vitamins) so there's really nothing to worry about overdose :)
• Since its packed with vitamins it helps your kids to be healthy, helps in their growth and boost their immunity against sickness.
• You can easily find them because it is available in Major Groceries Nationwide, Mercury Drugstores and Mini Stop and Local Grocery Stores.
• It's very affordable ( a 50g-pack is at Php12.00) so I really prefer these as to the other candies. Vita Cubes Singles is only (Php1.00 per piece) which can be bought at the local groceries near you.

Last Saturday, Tammy and I spent our day with the other Mommies at Active Fun BGC.  

Vita Cubes in collaboration with Mommy Bloggers Philippines just made us mums, kids and even the dads so happy because of Vita Cubes 2Good Fun Day.

There were lots of games, prizes and magic show where the kids and the kids at heart enjoyed. 

photo flip book where also given

There were lots of Cakes and Yummy food

and Tons and Tons of Vita Cubes!

Plus the Super daming take home goodies which made the event even more fun!

And of course the special access pass to the play area. Sobrang enjoy si Tammy!

I had spent my Saturday Afternoon meeting moms where I only get to talk online and their cutie daughters and sons + macho husbands :)

with the other mummies of Mommy Bloggers Philippines (photo source)

Truly an afternoon well spent!!!

Thanks so much Vita Cubes for inviting us to a day of good fun. 

Sending my love and kisses to Vita Cubes and Mommy Bloggers Philippines for this great event! Muchas Gracias!

With the almost every other week "Bagyo" weather that we are currently experiencing ever since the rainy season came in —for sure the last thing that you and I want to smell is that "amoy kulob" scent.

TENDERLOVIN' AT NAIL-A-HOLICS : A REVIEW!

If you are my friend, you know that my constant obsession aside from my bags, lipstick, shoes and accessories is maintaining my hair. But before these obsessions lies my vanity in maintaining my hands and feet. Back in my college days, I would always try to do my own nails but I always end up a failure ~ so the verdict : I have no choice but to run to a salon and have it professionally done by an expert. 

I remember I had my first "professional" manicure and pedicure from a nearby salon within our neighbourhood. For 50pesos for a manicure and 80pesos for a pedicure, I get to have a 2-min hand massage + mani + 5-min foot soak + pedi + 3-min foot massage. Not bad right? But, but half way through of my manicure, I felt a pricking pain - shemay!!! Apparently, ate girl murdered not just one but all of my fingers. Shockers! I never went back to that salon. Sinumpa ko talaga!

DERMAX LASER CENTER OPENS IN FESTIVAL MALL, ALABANG

As a girl from the south, the most common answer that you'll hear from us when we get an invite outside our area is, "ok, I'll try to go, but I  can't promise 'cause I'm too far and traffic sucks".

I hate to say it, but yes, at some point in my life (or of our lives), our location has become a hindrance to our social life and that includes our skin and beauty regimen (I'm not generalising that all girls from the south felt this way, this of course is coming from my own point of view).  And if you are indeed a true blooded southie, you know that you can just count within your fingers the reliable and affordable skin care clinic with a convenient location in the area. Am I right or am I right? :) Quite stressful isn't it? But again, let's not get stressed 'cause DERMAX Laser Centre, recently opened at the Festival Mall, Alabang. So fellow Southies, it is already within our reach and this is good news! No need to go too far or as what we commonly joke around, "hindi na natin kailangang lumuwas pa" haha!
