There are moments wherein I always have hard time looking for gifts for my friends and loved ones during holidays. Because I am busy as a bee trying to juggle with responsibilities, I always end up looking for stuff online, or whenever we have the chance to go to the malls which means more chaotic. Online shopping will always be my savior in so many ways. I could get things done with a computer, smartphone and internet connection in no time. I am just glad that I could also send out gifts by few clicks. No sweat. Personally, I like receiving perfumes as gifts and I like giving it as well. Every perfume I wear everyday or whenever I go out will depend solely on my mood. Did you know that there is online shop where you can choose, personalize and deliver gifts to your loved ones? Inspiredgiftsph.com is an online shop where they sell perfumes and other items that can be given as a gift. They sent me some of their perfumes which I was able to try and I must say, I loved...

Being a mom to three children with no help is really a challenge for me. Everyday I have to think of ways on how to manage time in between household chores and feeding them properly, on time and giving them the best and healthy food there is. No matter how I try to be at the top of everything, I always fail at some point. Because you know, I only have limited mommy superpowers. When my eldest started school, it was a big challenge for all of us. I had to adjust everything since we were just laid back and not having to worry on all we do here at home. Things suddenly changed when I had to wake up early everyday to prepare him to school. Time is fast paced.  The most challenging part also of having to be a mom of a school aged kid is to prepare him healthy food at school. My son, who became a picky eater has limited food choices too. He doesn't eat all what I give him. Good thing, he likes bread so much that he cannot live a single day without it. One thing that I have ...

If I have the choice of not washing the dishes in our house, I wouldn't do it. It is one of the chores that I do not like doing eversince I was a kid. I'd do it as a result of necessity or else I/we will use paper plates which is not practical by the way and not liking the idea as well.  Few months ago, we were given a local brand of dishwashing liquid from our mommy blogger group's thanksgiving party. But it is only now that I will be able to put my thoughts into writing. You know I love anything local most especially if this was a product of mommies like me.  One thing that sets them apart from other brands in the dishwashing soap line is their unique variants. They came up with three unique scents that I really love because it leaves a clean fresh smelling utensils. Their scents are gentle to the nose that is not too annoying. Their product is a result of their three years research and partnership of the perfumers and chemists in Spain. The scents are extracted ...

The horrifying moments during my pregnancy was being comfortable wearing stylish outfits at the same time. It was really hard during that time especially when I had my first born. There were limited stores that caters to the needs of pregnant women that prefers comfort and style at the same time as well as value for money. Believe it or not, I only have three staples during my three pregnancies: dress, leggings and shorts with baggy shirts. I couldn't even afford to go to events which requires me to style myself elegantly because of limited resources to maternity clothes. With my three pregnancies, I had only short for my pregnant tummy. I kid you not. SM MOA Branch So when I won a GC from our Christmas Thanksgiving party (which was stuck in the courier over the holidays), I immediately run to the nearest branch of Great Kids. First, I was just ecstatic to splurge a bit for myself, because retail therapy is life. Secondly, I want to check out what's in store. T...

It has been seven long years that I have been a chore slave momma. I have been serving a family of five and every single minute I spend doing chores is just as precious as what I have to spend with them. Time is gold.  I have a confession. If there is one thing that I hate doing is washing the dishes. I could stand all day washing clothes but bot dishes. Why? I grew up washing dishes over and over again because of the non stop grease that won't come off with our dishwashing soap. Imagine, I had to use a bar of detergent to wash dishes? Doesn't sound good right? But when I became a mom, I had to love what I hated. It comes with it. I had to love washing dishes especially that I love preparing meals and cooking for the family. But in this new generation, there are new products that will save your sanity, just like mine.  What made me love doing chores is the gears and products I use to be able to accomplish them.  I was sent Bubble Man Dishwashing liquid ...

When my youngest turned three months, his distinct baby smell vanished. You know the best smell there is are baby's right? I'm sure mommies will agree with me on this.  So I thought, I would just use products which will somehow give him distinct smell and bring back those baby smell of his just like his ate which I enjoyed until she was two years old. But no, he is really different. So I had to accept that fact. When I joined a mommy group, they were raving about this body wash which they claim to have long lasting scent and smells really good. Well, if most of the mommies has good claims about it, I know I must try it too. So I ordered it from the groupbuy and got it after weeks and immediately tried it. Lo and behold, what most of the mommies claims were true!  So let me tell five reasons why you should give this product a try. 1. Local Product. I am a supporter of local products and anything that is made by WAHMs, I strongly support them. In order for our...

In this blogpost I will be featuring one cloth diaper brand which is close to my heart, Cyan’s Cradle. I was one of the lucky few who bought her nappies when the WAHM behind it started her business months ago. Her creations were tested to her almost 24 months old son who is a heavy wetter baby. When I bought her first few nappies back then, I was pretty much satisfied with its absorbency considering my son was a medium wetter. But I was glad that over time, she improves all her creations which makes us happy mommy and baby. Me and my son started with two nappies from her and later on bought again several. Her first few soakers where tailored in a way where you can opt to use one layer only, two layers or add additional booster to it of needed. Over time, the second nappy we bought was snake style and this time is like sandwich type. But let me talk about the latest nappy I got from her which is one of our favorites, a Mavel kawaii print nappy. Hybrid fitted is compose...

Local products has been steeping up with their products at being at par with the foreign brands. If only I have the liberty to splurge on products, I would buy and try them all for you. But I am just limited to what I think is just and somewhat within the budget of other mommies. Because you know, I am a mom and my money is budgeted to the kids. Yes, real talk.  Anyway, the product I will share with you right now is the Detail Make Over Contour Kit. I got this from the brand launch several months ago. I know, sorry too swamped with mom duties and sick kids one after the other. Anyway, here it is. Honestly, this is the very first local contour kit I had. If I wasn't invited to the brand launch I would never knew this kit has existed. The ones that I use for contour, highlight and blush are three different brands. I am just happy that finally I have a kit/palette and the best pat is, a local brand too.  This kit contains six products in one. Two contour powders, o...
