Metro Moms Holiday Pampering 2019 at Lemon Tree Salon and Cafe

Sunday, January 05, 2020

     December is one of the busiest months because of reunions, gatherings, and parties. It's also the time of the year where everyone experiences stress from holiday-related stuff that's why we all need to settle down and have me-time to recharge. There are so many things to be thankful for this 2020 and one of those are blogger friends who became sisters in all things mommy and self-care. 

     We created a website called Metro Moms PH with a mantra that “Every mom needs to take care of herself.” Here, we talk about health and wellness, beauty and fashion and lifestyle topics that'll help rock motherhood. In line with this, we went on a much needed holiday pampering and bonding as our first event last year at Lemon Tree Salon and Cafe with our dear readers. Sharing highlights of our sparty after the jump!

Product Review: Soothies Foot Care Products

Monday, December 03, 2018

     One foot problem that I’ve encountered early this month was cracked heels. The culprit was constant walking here and there wearing rubber slippers at the hospital and staying in a very cold air-conditioned room.

     My feet became extremely dry and the cracks cause pain when walking barefoot. I’m glad that Soothies Foot Care products came to the rescue! These products are the newest pampering partner for all those foot care needs. These 5 piece foot care products will take care of those nasty foot problems at the comfort of your own home.

Beautiful Feet with Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi

Wednesday, November 11, 2015

     There are times that I veered away from wearing heels and stilettos because I don't have the courage to show my feet especially my heels. My mother likes to collect sexy foot wear and she always insists to me that I need to have a break from wearing closed shoes once in a while. Aside from the fact that I have very sensitive feet, I have a boring shoe-life if that's the right term for someone who always wear sneakers, flats, and flip flops rather than heels or wedges if there's an important event in her life. I confessed that it's a pain to wear those killer stilettos and chunky heels, aside from the discomfort I'm also conscious of how my feet looks like. Is it dry and full of calluses? 

     Fast forward today, I'm so happy and truly amazed that revolutionary product that saves time, effort, and money was invented. This electronic foot file gives beautiful feet in one switch! Two months ago, I cringed on wearing wedges and heels because I'm afraid to show off my feet but now I'm super satisfied with the results. I can wear sexy foot wear and enjoy dressing up from day to night. Fear of formal attire no more! Gone are the days that I'd skip attending events because I'm shy to show off my feet. Now, nothings holding me back. I can bare my beautiful feet in just one switch! Why use Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi? Read more below :)

Beautiful Feet with Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi
Any kind of footwear, you'll have beautiful feet in one switch!
     Because I have beautiful feet in no time, I can wear any kind of foot wear from day to night. I attend more than one event in a day and there are events that require dress code. There are events where it's okay to wear casual outfit: jeans+ shirt+ sneakers will do. Then another event requires cocktail dress. So I need to switch from casual wear to a more formal ensemble. The outfit? Sexy dress + wedge/heels or killer stilettos. I need not to worry about these transformations because with weekly use of Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi, I can bare my footsies anytime, anywhere!

Product Review: Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi

Thursday, August 13, 2015

     Hello dearies! I'm excited to share with you this new product innovation that will make your feet beautiful in less than 5 minutes. The result is instant and after first use, you will see and feel the difference. You can bare your beautiful feet after 1 use.

     Do you love going to nail salon and have your foot spa and pedicure done twice a month? If yes, what are the no-no's that you've experienced before in your foot spa sesh? I presume that the list of not so good experiences include long queues, heavy-handed spa attendants, an accidental cut from the manual callus file, a tad expensive service, and time. If you're so busy, I'm sure that you'll just opt to have home service foot spa but not all nail salons in the metro cater to this kind of service. Fret not, I have a good news- introducing Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi :) This product can give all the benefits that you get your regular foot spa session at the comforts of your home! At first I was hesitant that it will give me a soft and smooth skin in an instant but after my first try, I'm impressed! Scroll down to see why you should have this product at home :)

Photo above: Right foot with callus and a semi-cracked heel
Photo below: After using 
Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi, the calluses are literally removed and the cracks are barely seen. Photo taken using my O+ 8.92 smartphone. No filter. 
What I like:

  • The price is affordable if I'll do the math it saves at least 80% from foot spa sessions.
  • Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi's ergonomically shaped soft-touch handle makes it easy to use.
  • It is battery operated no need for manual scrubbing. Just push the button and voila, let the specially designed rolling surface do the job!
  • It is easy to use.
  • No blade, cutting, and other sharp materials so it's safe and ready to use.
  • The product can be used immediately, no other tasking procedure required. 
  • The head can be replaced with a new roller head. Talk about convenience of refills!
  • After using the file, there's an instant result.
  • My feet feel soft and smooth to touch.
  • The calluses that I got from wearing rubber slippers are not that visible after one use of Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi.
  • Removes hard skin without damaging my normal thin skin. I have thin skin and there's a time where one of my foot spa sessions gone wrong. The attendant over-scrubbed the callus on the lateral plantar section. 
  • I'm impressed that it also blurs out or can lessen the wrinkled areas on the sole of my feet.

What I don't like:

  • None so far!

Will I repurchase? Yes, it's in the realm of possibility. This is a perfect gift this Christmas to foot spa fanatic friends and relatives.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. I highly recommend this product if you love having pedicure sesh twice a month and if you're the type of individual who is always on the go. This will perfectly fit your busy schedule. The convenience of having this product can save you time and hassles from going to nail spa and salon.


     No need to wait for long queues just to get a foot spa and pedicure in nail salons.. Just turn on the button and you're just a couple of minutes away to having a beautiful feet that you can bare anytime, anywhere!
