Robinsons Supermarket "Celebrate Wellness" Promo Launch

     What's your favorite family bonding and activity? For many of us, bonding over food will prolly be an instant answer. How about sports- related activities for the whole family? I presume that only a few do this weekly or once a month. Aside from eating nutritious food, we also need to do physical activities that will complement our healthy lifestyle.

     Robinsons Supermarket believes that in order to promote a fun, healthy, and active lifestyle among families, we must engage ourselves through exciting sports-related and wellness activities. Last August 5, 2017 Robinsons Supermarket launched the 4th leg of their year-long Route to Wellness Campaign. This month until the end of September, we are going to Celebrate Wellness in all Robinsons Supermarket. Highlights of the event and mechanics of the promo below :)

Sanicare Hygiene Care Circle + First Brand Ambassador Launch

     When it comes to hygiene care, our default brand of tissues and wet wipes at home is Sanicare. It's a household brand for many Filipinos for years now. We are using their kitchen towels, handy pack tissues, wet wipes, and cotton balls to name a few.

RCBC New Logo and Tagline Launch

     A stable financial institution is what we need to help us manage our hard earned money that's why we are always in search of a bank where we will give our loyalty and trust. With issues here and there concerning some of the biggest financial institutions in our country in the past months, the Filipinos are more diligent in choosing a bank that will cater to all financial needs.

     Just recently, Rizal Commercial Bank Corporation (RCBC) unveiled their new corporate logo and tagline “We believe in you,” which signals the start of a new era of providing excellent and trusted banking services for Filipinos. The launch gave us an idea of what RCBC has to offer not only to past clientele but to the millennials as well. More information below.

Feature: Grande Rice Bran Oil

     Healthy eating habits start in the kitchen that's why choosing the right ingredient is beneficial in achieving overall wellness. My husband cooks our food. He knows that a healthy meal is made of fresh and natural ingredients. As much as possible, he buys fresh meat and vegetables in the supermarket and uses cooking oil that's low in cholesterol.

     Speaking of cooking oil, we use palm and corn oil alternately. My mother-in-law supplies us with corn oil that she buys in Saudi Arabia. If our stocks run out, then palm oil is what we use in frying our food. Aside from these, there are also other cooking oils that have healthier benefits like extra virgin olive, coconut, and vegetable oil but the latter two are chemically processed. There's a new player in town- Rice Bran Oil. Know more about RBO and the brand Grande that's already available in leading supermarkets nationwide after the jump :)

Canon Pix Mommy Weekend + Canon PIXMA E Series Printers Launch

    Have you experienced doing late night research, homework, and project before? It's stressful especially if you're cramming because tomorrow is the deadline. I've experienced this situation many times when I was in college. We only have a desktop computer but we don't have a printer. 

     Picture this- project done but printing none. It's a sad experience when the computer shop nearby is already closed so you have no choice but to wake up early and wait for them to open that's why if you have a desktop or a laptop at home, a printer is a must! Speaking of the printer, let me share with you what Canon Philippines has to offer plus the highlights of Canon Pix Mommy Weekend Event.

Canon Pix Mommy Weekend + Canon PIXMA E Series Printers Launch

     During the Canon Pix Mommy Weekend Event, invited guests were treated to an afternoon of good food, educational talks, arts & crafts, and a new printer. Yes, they gave each and every one of us a brand spanking new Canon PIXMA E470 printer. This printer will be what moms of schooling age kids need: to print, scan, and copy projects, homework and other shool related stuff.

     Another blogger, Shari Macainag- the beauty, lifestyle and mommy blogger behind The Misty Mom also shared her tips and tricks capturing kids photos. I can relate to her that it's hard to please a kid, make him or her pose in front of the camera especially if they're not in the mood. Shari showed us visuals on how to capture a perfect picture using her Canon Mirrorless camera.

Maison Eric Kayser Summer Pastry Collection

     It's June already, summer vacation is over but for some summer will never end. It's not only the sea, sand, and the sun that make summer memories but there are other things that will take you back to the laid back season. Speaking of summer, Maison Eric Kayser PH invited me to an afternoon party last June 03, 2017 at the Refinery Rockwell for the launch of their summer pastry collection.

     It was an afternoon tea party where guests were treated to mouth-watering pastries and other bakers' confectionaries. Maison Eric Kayser is a French contemporary bakery. They are known to produce French traditional bread, pastries, and biscuits to name a few. Let me share with you some Eric Kayser Summer Pastry Collection offerings below :)

SM World of Beauty

     I was in high school, I often hear my mom talking to my titas who live abroad about makeup brands that are not available locally. Two of my aunts work at Macy's that's why if there's a new shade of lipstick from my mom's favorite brand, she will just tell it to them but it will take a year before the balikbayan boxes will arrive at our doorsteps.

     To cut a long story short, it's hard to buy makeup from brands that are exclusively available abroad but now, hoarding buying is a breeze because all the coveted brands from different parts of the world are exclusively available at SM World of Beauty! Let me share with you some of my fave brands from around the world below :)
