Spread ALS Awareness by Watching You're Not You in Theaters

Saturday, November 22, 2014

     There are things in life that makes us breathless, simple things that make us move. Despite the obstacles, the aches and pains that we experience, there is someone who will give light to the burden and make us realize that life is worth fighting for.

     I was invited to watch the VIP special screening of You're Not You at SM Megamall Cinema 6 last November 18. At first I thought I'll be watching a chick flick because the title of the movie screams romance in my ears but it's actually a heart moving film about friendships and unconditional love plus awareness of the life threatening disease- ALS. I'll just give a brief information about ALS and a little synopsis of the movie because I want you to watch it in theaters. It's a great movie, it will really make your tears fall but will educate you about the disease. So without further ado, click CONTINUE READING and save the date please!

Toccare Spa #ThisIsMySpa

Wednesday, October 22, 2014

     Hello dearies! Three weeks ago, I was invited to have a “pamper me” day experience by one of the best spas in the metro based from the positive feed backs I've heard from some of the blog readers and it's - Toccare Spa. This is my first time featuring a spa here in my blog and because I had a great experience during my visit, I want all of you to see what Toccare Spa has to offer. 

     I know that some of you have already experienced to go in a spa before or have the service done at home but the experience may differ, right? So now I asked, what are the things that you consider with your "me time" at the spa? What are the qualities that you look for a spa service and will say "This is my spa" after the treatment that you have availed?

     To answer the questions I asked above, let me feature Toccare Spa. I think I've found the spa where I want to relax and get pampered not only because of the great customer service and high-end facilities but because I can really say that "This is my spa".

Product Review: Glutafit [UPDATED]

Saturday, September 27, 2014

     Stay beautiful and fit with Glutafit, sounds too good to be true right? But this can be achieved also with the right kind of skincare products, diet, exercise, and happy vibes! To make the mantra more effective, add a dietary supplement because not all the nutrients in the food that we eat can be properly absorbed in the gut. So taking this kind of supplement can actually amp up what I mentioned above. What is Glutafit


     Glutafit is the first daily supplement which helps whiten and slim down the body creating healthy glowing skin and slender body. It contains a combination of L-Glutathione, Chitosan, and Hydroxyproline which are all clinically proven ingredients effective for whitening and slimming. To know more about the product and my experience, click CONTINUE READING, please :)

Product Review: Glutafit
     Before you scroll down, let's take a closer look at the ingredients of Glutafit and what it can do to your body.

L-Glutathione
  • It helps lighten skin pigmentation
  • It helps maintain healthy glowing skin
  • It is a powerful anti-oxidant
  • It helps detoxify the liver
Chitosan
  • It helps as a fat binder
  • It helps eliminate the waste products of the body
  • It helps bowel elimination
  • It helps as a fast-acting weight loss partner
Hydroxyproline (Collagen)
  • It is the purest form of collagen
  • It helps rebuild skin collagen
  • It helps lessen signs of aging
  • It helps rejuvenate the skin
  • It helps maintain moisture for firmer and smoother skin
     I've used the product for 15 days as recommended. One capsule 30 minutes before and after eating. Since the product lasted only for two weeks, I wasn't able to see the maximum effect that I'm sure will be achieved after two to three bottles of Glutafit.

Product Review: Glutafit
Well-sealed
Product Review: Glutafit
Here's the product in a transparent capsule
What I like:
  • Sealed upon purchase.
  • Comes in a handy bottle complete with product information.
  • This is a 2-in-1 product great for whitening the skin and losing weight.
  • It contains a decent amount of one of the purest form of collagen- hydroxyproline.
  • I didn't experience any discomforts like vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts or whatsoever.
  • It made my skin glowing even if there are times that I need to stay late at night.
  • It lessened cystic pimples popping around my chin which I experience every month.
  • The color of my freckles lightened a bit while I'm taking this capsule.
  • Taking the product in the morning had curbed my appetite the whole day.
  • It made me sweat even if I do simple movements.
  • Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the package.

What I don't like:
  • Not easily accessible.
  • Since the recommended dosage is twice a day, I find the price a bit steep. 
  • It's expensive for budget-conscious individuals.
  • Contains only 250mg of Glutathione compared to other brands in the market.

Will I purchase? Maybe 

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4/5 rating. To those who want to achieve fair skin, I do recommend this product because it's 2-in-1. This supplement not only maintained my skin tone but it served as an ant-oxidant in my body because I'm exposed to second-hand smoke from my husband and also from other stress factors in the environment. The chitosan in the product curbs my appetite and made me sweat with every simple task that I do. 

     The product did not whiten or lighten my skin because I only consumed it for 15 days but it helped me control my appetite. It's a promising product for those who want to see 2-in-1 benefits in a bottle. With continuous use, I can say maximum results will be achieved. 


     Have you tried taking whitening and slimming capsule as a daily supplement? Share!

Good Times!~

Sangobion Makeover Event: A fresh, new look for women who want to Go Love Life!

Sunday, August 17, 2014

     Hi dearies! After two months hiatus from attending events, finally I was able to make it to Sangobion Makeover Event. The event was held at Crowne Plaza Hotel where brand ambassadors, bloggers, Sangobion team and their makeover winners gathered in an afternoon of beauty makeover and heart to heart talk about women's health. 

     Many modern women lead such hectic lives. We put so much energy into juggling a career, taking care of our homes, and making time for our loved ones. While we may be able to balance our different roles, we often have little time for ourselves–leaving our health and looks neglected. Everyone enjoyed the afternoon and to show you highlights of the event, click CONTINUE READING and #GoLoveLife!
