We found SALLY and she is...

     Let's go back in the early days of 2020 wherein Metro Manila commuters, while stuck in traffic, saw billboards about a certain "SALLY." The billboards, spotted on EDSA, C5 and in Commonwealth, sounded like someone is in need of SALLY. I presume you've seen lifestyle bloggers here in the Philippines were also looking for her. "SALLY, where are you?" "I need you, SALLY." "Wish you were here, SALLY." "Has anyone seen SALLY?" "Help me, SALLY."

     So who exactly is SALLY? SALLY is a coined term for Shopping Ally. This is what the newly launched PUREGOLD MOBILE stands for. Taking the grocery shopping experience to the next level, the app was designed by Puregold and Globe Telecom to adapt to consumer’s evolving needs and to keep pace with the technology in offering a better way to shop.

Product Review: Revlon Colorstay Endless Glow Liquid Highlighter

     Makeup trends come and go and there's one that I want to stay- highlighters! It's one of the secrets to look glowing on photos sans the sleepless nights. I've started using highlighters a couple of years ago and it's one of my makeup essentials that give the lit from within look. I always get a compliment whenever I have highlighter on my cheeks that's why I'm excited to try different types and finishes available in the market today.

     I've tried two types of highlighter to date- powder and liquid. Both are easy to use and gives the right illuminating effect for that blooming and fresh look. Last December, I received a box full of makeup goodies from Revlon Philippines and five shimmering, shinning, splendid highlighters made my eyes sparkle. They sent all the shades of their Colorstay Endless Glow Liquid Highlighter that stoked my highlighter loving heart.

UNIQLO Sport Utility Wear Collection Launch

     In my recent post, I shared my intentions this 2020 and it focuses on my health and overall well-being. It has been six months since I started eating clean and going to the gym for my Yoga and Pilates classes. I struggled in the first three months, almost gave up but I'm serious about changing unhealthy habits for a healthy lifestyle. What keeps me going? The support from my husband, family, and friends and my workout essentials like a mat, water bottle, and gym clothes.

     Speaking of clothes, wearing proper exercise attire or outfit motivates you to keep going and move without limits. It's an investment that you'll be wearing four to five times a week and will be a part of your wardrobe. Nowadays, sportswear is your best friend if you love to wear comfortable clothes. It can be your outfit going to school, office, or casual and social occasions. Welcome the Athleisure trend and UNIQLO has launched its Sport Utility Wear collection, a lineup that introduces a new type of clothing that can smoothly transition from sports to casual wear, seamlessly integrating sportswear features into everyday apparel.

Northern Moms Philippines Christmas 2019 at Tinker House

     Last December 10, 2019,  Northern Moms Philippines had an afternoon of learning while having fun at Tinker House SM City Fairview branch with our dear readers and their little kids. We had an afternoon full of arts and crafts activities from Tinker House and the experience is one for the books.

     It's my first time to step inside a playhouse full of art materials, building tools, and science equipment. Their tagline "where curiosity grows" empowers kids to design, build and discover and Tinker House is on a mission to help nurture the next generation of creatives, innovators, scientists, inventors, and artists- one tinker project at a time! The kids were already doing the first activity when I arrived at the venue and the curious cat in me decided to join the fun!

Landers Superstore Accepts Donation for Taal Victims

     The world is deeply saddened with the news last Sunday because one of the most active and dangerous volcanoes here in the Philippines showed signs of eruption. From alert level 1, last January 12 to alert level 4 as of the moment, thousands of families are affected by ashfalls and this life-threatening situation has forced the government to evacuate them to a safer place.

     It's heart-breaking to see them on national television being rescued one by one, their bodies were covered with mud carrying small children, confused and shocked of what happened. Batangas and nearby province like Cavite is now under a state of calamity because of Taal Volcano Eruption and the victims need help. In times like this, no amount of help is big or small as long as you are willing to help. Want to send help to Taal victims but don’t know where to send donations? Or, have you been thinking of reaching out to those displaced by the eruption but are too busy to drive to the nearest drop-off center? Landers Superstore is the place to be.
