It's Dengue Awareness Month!

Since the Rainy season is here, we are all aware of how another deadly virus looms in our country! Did you know that Dengue or Malaria is one of the toughest viruses globally and is responsible for millions of deaths? Yes, it may not be as scary right now as COVID-19 but something we should also ignore.

The good thing about this is that Dengue is relatively y easy to deter. We can protect ourselves by protecting our babies. There is now a vaccine against Dengue! And if you want to start a plantita journey, you can also decorate your homes with Citronella plants. There are also a variety of mosquito-repellant machines you can buy on Shopee.

You don't have to look too far though if you want to protect your skin from mosquito bites! There are so many beauty products that you can try that have the best ingredients to keep the mosquies away!



CITRONELLA 4-in 1 Body Lotion
-
Vitamin E - Aloe Vera - Peppermint

This 4-in-1 Body Lotion can moisturize the skin, reverse visible signs of aging, and provide a cooling yet gentle effect on the skin! 


This is perfect for those who want to achieve that soft, glowing skin while helping your fight those annoying mosquitos. I highly recommend this product, safe for all skin types, and can bring it anytime and anywhere for that extra protection! 


And the best thing about is that it's only P250 + freebies! I do love how affordable things are getting for us, thanks to Shopee!


-o0o-


and speaking of Hello Glow, I recently discovered their Acne Defense Kit.


It contains 2 major ingredients that I love in skincare, Salicylic + Tea Tree. 



HELLO GLOW ACNE DEFENSE SET


Salicylic Acid + Tea Tree


"No more breakouts and maskne with Hello Glow Acne Defense Set! It contains the two best ingredients to shoo those pimples away, Salicylic Acid and Tea Tree acid to deeply cleanse your skin and calm those inflamed pimples. Clear skin in just 3-easy steps!  Perfect for those with oily and acne-prone skin. Now available in Shopee for only P360!"


I noticed how affordable these products and given the range out there, Hello Glow seemed to be competitive in both quality and price point. Now that everyone has maskne to deal with, taking care of the skin can strain our budget. But that's okay. I realized long before that even affordable skincare can pack quite a punch. With this set, they are only 3 products - 3-step skincare that newbies to pro can easily do day and night. 



STEP 1: When it comes to acne, cleansing and purifying the skin is the first step. The Hello Glow Acne Solutions Cleansing Gel helps clean the pores that can trap dirt and given how our mask skin is "kulog", our skin can easily get clogged! Gently massage a pea-sized amount onto your skin and neck. Rinse well with lukewarm water and dry with a gentle pat. 



Step 2: And just to double cleanse and protect, use the Hello Glow Pore Tight Repairing Toner. This helps also brightens the skin and removes excess dirt and sebum. Squeeze a small amount of it onto a cotton pad and sweep across the face in a circular and upward motion. Do this day and night to prep your skin.



Step 3: For existing acne, you can spot dry them using the Hello Glow Acne Spot Drying Cream. Active pimples are like rebellious children, use too strong of a product and they leave a lasting mark but with a little gentleness, they will heal and be back to normal like yesterday never happened. That's what Hello Glow Acne Spot Drying Cream. Apply a thin layer 3 times a day or as need to reduce inflammation and redness.


So if you're looking for affordable and promising skincare to save you from acne, this could be something worth checking out! Get it here!


As always for severe acne breakouts, it is better to consult a board-certified dermatologist to see to the proper health and care management that would impact your skin.

Having long thick hair is both a blessing and curse for me. Blessing because there's so much i can do with my hair. Especially now that volume is the way too go with hair trends. But is can hard to manage most of the time so I end of putting it ina pony all the time. During Summer this year when the weather turned especially hot, I hated the feel of the sticky hair and sweat against my nape. Sadly though, this made me suffer bad hair fall. Yes, even thick-maned ladies like me have problems with hair fall. Big time, actually. Hindi lang halata.

Sleeping is never going to be the same for me. :) I never really bothered so much about what to wear to sleep. But when I got pregnant my regular pantulog outfit - which really were just old pambahay clothes - either doesn't fit me anymore or that I don't like wearing them. I like airy and very soft fabrics that I even invaded the hubby's closet for his old shirts. 

I was suppose to go shopping for some really comfortable sleepwear when my friend, Amaris, told she designs them! She lovingly calls it Naima Sleepwear, the name of which means comfort, peace and tranquility in Arabic. And I was only too thrilled to give their creations a try. When I received my orders... oh boy! I'm in love!

It's seriously some of the softest fabrics I've encountered with! Even the boyfriend shirt which I thought would really come in a polo type of fabric is incredibly soft! And the designs are quality made. So glad that this brand is homegrown. It's really something to be proud off.

I got mostly all of them in Large sizes so I can maximize them during and after my pregnancy but medium should fit me well in my 125 lbs weight. I even made sure that at least two pieces are okay for nursing like the Julia's Boyfriend Shirt and Katrina Asymmetrical Dress.


One of my top favorite, Julia's Boyfriend Shirt is soft, it reminds of a baby's blanket. Definitely a fashionable sleepwear and it's only Php399!


A cute loungewear, the Katrina Asymmetrical Dress (Php449) is definitely the sexiest amongst all the pieces. I falls lovingly along my curves. Even with a huge belly, this makes me feel exceptionally sexy. Definitely not your regular house clothes. :)


Candy T-shirt in Drak Green really is one of the nicest and simplest things ever! It's freesize and makes me feel so much younger than really am. :) Can't believe this is only Php349!


I got the Patricia Pajamas in Brown & Black (Php349) because every deserves a really nice quality-made PJ's! And these fall on my hips perfectly! It's something that I look forward to wearing with oversize shirts during this cold season or my tank tops when it's Summer!


The pièce de résistance  is the Alexa Pajama Wear in this lovely bright canary yellow (also comes in baby blue)! And it's polka dots! It'll surely attract fortune this New Year. Hehehe! Oh God, the material used here is so soft that I could sleep anywhere wearing this. I love that the top accommodated my belly without making me too look huge. :) Worth every penny for it's quality, design and material.. and it's Php649 for these two!

As I'm sure that I'll be using more and more sleepwear these coming days, I need to treat myself to some really comfortable yet fabulously designs sleepwear. No the regular pantulog we Filipinas have gotten used to. And Naima fulfills that need. Thank God! 

Definitely recommending Naima to you, guys! :)

It's impossible to leave SM department store without buying anything. Much more if you stop at Parisian. You agree, right? I was just waiting for a friend at SM Makati and look what I came out with... two cute bags that I've always wanted but found the ones I saw in other brands too expensive.


Here the first one that caught my eye a mint green bad with gold studs and chains. I immediately took it never let it go. It's pretty small. It's around 6x5 inches and quite heavy but I didn't care. It was cheap at only
