Ysabel's Daughter Body Lotion is a 100 all natural. The lotion is free of sulfates, parabens, phthalates and petrochemicals.

Many people opt for natural body lotion that does not contain harmful ingredients or toxic chemicals that often induce allergic reactions in skin.

Ysabel's Daughter Bath & Body is a great brand that offers an extensive line of natural products. Their Olive Face & Body Walnut Scrub is the best great natural scrub and so far it is my favorite scrub.

The best natural skin care products are made from fresh and natural ingredients. This is what Ysabel's Daughter is all about 100% all natural.

I've used YSABEL'S DAUGHTER OLIVE Face & Body Walnut scrub and I love this product so much, it is the best scrub I've tried so far.

Today, I attended an afternoon of fun for SM Kids Fashion Denim Launch held at SM Mall of Asia.

Water has always been my drink of choice. It makes me feel good and keep myself hydrated. Whenever I have a craving, a headache, feel constipated or hungry I drink water and it helps a lot on making me feel better.

Drinking water has so much benefits:

♥ Helps cleanse and revitalize the body sweeping away toxins and impurities in the body.

♥ Increases energy and relieves fatigue

♥ Promotes weight loss

♥ Improves skin complexion

♥ Boosts immune system

Overall, drinking lots of water can lead to greater personal wellness and well-being.

However, not all water is the same some are better than others.

Just like drinking from a water supply such as a stream can sometimes prove unsafe, drinking untreated water.

My kids battle diarrhea from time to time because of contaminated food or water and being a mom I worry too much for them getting sick and I need to make sure to keep my kids safe, fit and healthy.

Recently, I was invited to Aquabest Bloggers Night in partnership with Evee and Skinlyn Health and Wellness Spa and talked about their new products and technologies for overall health and wellness.

Aquabest is the premier water franchising concept of G.Q.W.E.S.T.Inc.

They explained in detail on why Aquabest Granderized water in particular is radically different from other types of drinking water being not only clean but also healthy.

I remember when I was a kid, I love to pretend that I was a Model, News Reporter, Cashier, Flight Attendant, Dentist, Doctor, Nurse, Waitress or Chef.

As part of our play, we would get clothes and find things to make-believe to the role we play.

When I heard about KidZania, I was very excited for my kids to experience this to empower them in a fun way through interactive role play & learning. I wish we have this when I was a kid.

KidZania is an educational theme park coming soon here in Manila, it is an interactive kids city with over 100 different role playing activities with more than 70 replicas of real-life establishments scaled-down to a kid's size.

Well, here's a YouTube Video to see what to expect with KidZania.

My kids was astonished watching this preview.

Just like real life, they go to work and earn with KidZania's own currency called "KidZo" that they can use inside the theme park to purchase goods and services. There is even a bank where they can open a bank account and deposit their earnings to save KidZos and withdraw them using KidZania ATM cards.

To provide excitement and authenticity to the experience KidZania partners with real-life brands and McDonald's Philippines is happy to announce its partnership with KidZania Manila and be the official Burger Shop.

Now that school is in, all students want to bring their best foot forward, especially during first day of classes. However, when teenagers start getting acne and bad skin, no amount of cosmetic products can cover this up. These are major self-esteem downers, making teens self-conscious, stopping them from enjoying life to the fullest.

Teenagers who have acne suffer on many levels, physically, psychologically and emotionally. The worst feeling they have is lack of control. It completely undermines their confidence and as a result they often 'absent' themselves from joining in activities because they are so self-conscious about how they look.

According to a recent UK study entitled “Acne Vulgaris: Causes, Consequence, and Potential Treatment,” prevalence of self-reported acne among individuals age 15-25 is as high as 91%. That is 9 out of every 10 individuals who experience depression, anger, low self-esteem and frustrations. “Teenagers can increasingly face psychological, emotional and social problems because of pimples. Creating an empowering atmosphere is important to help teens overcome these struggles,” says Dr. Susan A. Estanislao, Counseling Psychologist from De La Salle University, Manila.

Good skin care plays an important role in preventing acne-causing bacteria from forming. Regular washing of face with an antimicrobial soap helps remove surface bacteria from skin.

Safeguard Derma Sense gives teens control over their acne by shielding them against bacteria, helping them face up to acne, and face up to their dreams.

Rainy days are surely the dullest and most boring. The feeling of “I guess I'll never see the sun again” and “I wanted to stay all day in bed.” It basically hinders people to be in their utmost self.

Rainy days bring impressions of gloominess, laziness, and even heightened emotional feelings. How can we instantly change our mood from being gloomy to being colorful?

I'm a huge fan of Absynthe Bath and Beauty Products. I got these products a few months back and wanted to give them time to work before I reviewed, but honestly, I saw a major change in my hair after the first use. Manila's weather is downright hot and humid so I went out the day after washing my hair, I expected the usual frizz. Somehow, this magic shampoo and conditioner prevented that from happening.

UNIQLO is a Japanese chain which sells good quality clothing at reasonable prices. When we went to Shanghai, China and they had a BIG SALE ongoing so I bought a lot of clothes from UNIQLO for me and my kids and I super love it!
