Cynos Body and Thairapy #Argan Oil #ProductReview #Organic

Image
When Argan Oil has become popular last year, I belong to those who really eager to try the wonders of it. It took a while for me to score a bottle of argan oil since it is a bit pricey. Why I need it? Having a very dry skin and hair during extreme weather, an argan oil is reckoned to help me get through those times. The part of my body which the paucity of moisture is in highest demand are my feet. First time in my existence that average callus has formed in my feet  together with intense dryness that resulted to cracked heels. I must admit, it has made a slight fall off my self-confidence that I got shy of going to footspa and even wearing flip-flops because it shows off my feet.

Tips For Creating The Perfect Playroom For Keeping Your Kids Entertained

Photo source Before I had children myself, I must admit that I never understood why kids needed a while playroom. I couldn’t understand why a child would need a playroom when they had their bedroom to stash their toys in. But now I am a mommy myself, I understand just how many toys children have - far too often, my house resembles an exploded toy factory. Even if you have the best storage solutions in your child’s bedroom, it doesn't stop them from turning your house upside down, in a few seconds flat. While some kids are happy to play in their bedrooms, I have learned from experience with my son, that he likes to be downstairs near me.

As a mom, I feel that I made the right choice to breastfeed my son from birth until now that he just turned two years old. I know nothing about breastfeeding when I was starting and there were no one in the know to advice and guide me on what to do.

Black Bridesmaid Gowns, Take Your Pick!

There is no denying that the color black fits both categories of warm and cool skin toned. As what most popular fashion designers always say, " Black is the color that goes with everything. If you're wearing black, you're on sure ground ."  I barely catch sight of black bridesmaids gowns in weddings I have attended so when I have seen weddings with the bridesmaids wearing black gowns, I admired black gowns so bad. Black bridesmaid gowns are nothing but elegance and sophistication. Just a quick trivia, started way back in the old century, black is the color that generally associated with elegance in Europe and the US.

Ever Bilena Citronella Lotion #Review

Image
I was  not aware that my favorite local cosmetic brand, Ever Bilena also offers skin care products like lotion until I stumbled upon a brochure of Ever Bilena products from an SA. It's nice to see that they also have the Citronella lotion, so I bought one right away. If you have been reading my blog, you know that I am scared of mosquito bites. I have reviewed few mosquito repellent lotions in the past. This lotion comes very handy wherever we are since I am fond of applying lotion for skin protection. This lotion is very affordable, you can get a 100ml full lotion product for only P60. Still a steal for a budget conscious mom like me.
