The Perfect Out-Of-Town Baon this Holy Week

     My family and I love to go on out-of-town trips during Holy Week. This way, we also get to de-stress and bond with each other. The kids love going out of town so much. They are more relaxed when they are with nature. 

     That’s why when we go out-of-town, we seek adventures by biking, trekking, and swimming. But this can be so tiring, especially for my high-energy kids! After, we’re all usually so tired that we end up eating an unsatisfying meal.

5 Muscle-Building Tips for Women

     Building a muscular body is something that we typically associate with men, although that is a completely wrong perception to have. Women can build muscle mass as well for a fitter, stronger and healthier body. Now, it is true that the female body does not naturally produce the primary muscle-building hormones such as testosterone in sufficient quantities to match the production rate of those hormones within a male body, but that’s perfectly alright because the little they do have is enough to get what is needed. However, to make the playing fields somewhat even, here are five tips that should help you get jacked faster.

Since then, Filipinos have developed an affinity with tea drinks and have grown to love C2’s refreshing flavors.

Technology and LG Help Women Do More

     Traditional thinking holds that women are not as comfortable with technology as men, but that's not the case. Women have always been the early adopters of technology. Throughout history, they’ve brought the latest gadgets into use, learned new means of communication, and maximized more efficient cooking and housekeeping methods in order to adjust to the dynamic changes in society and their transitional role in it.

     From light bulbs and typewriters in the 1800s, to the washing machine and the refrigerator in the early 1900s, to the telephone in the 1950s, inventions and innovations that had to do with everyday living were always the woman’s domain. The advent of modern appliances had a profound impact on the 20th-century woman, changing the way she cooked, cleaned and cared for her family, and, eventually, how she lived her life beyond her home. Plug-in conveniences brought about a household revolution, one that would eventually change women’s lives, and enable them to enter the workforce and contribute to the economy.

Feature: Kiss Instawave Curler and Wet Brush

     I was born with straight hair and I thank my genes for that because I don't need to have it rebonded. Some girls said that I'm lucky because of my typically long and straight locks. But there were times that I find it boring especially when I'll be attending an event and sporting gorgeous curls will complete the outfit.

     To shake things up a little, I always color my hair. It's already a monthly or quarterly routine. But there were times that I really wanted to style my hair with a curl or perm and the solution is to go to a reputable salon to achieve it. A trip to a salon will always cost time and money-- but what if I could only spend once and take care of my curling problems on my own? I already have an answer, scroll down below to know!
