Sympathy

Today is a poignant day for us Filipino’s, my condolences to the family of Ramon, Sally and Elizabeth. I pray for the peace of their souls and as well as their love ones healing after this hurtful episode of their life.

Weight Loss

It had been a yo-yo diet for since after I gave birth, I always let go after a while though I lose few pounds there is always a feeling of deprivation. I always crave for something like donuts, cakes or burger and as always I surrender my task to these so-called comfort foods. Discipline is what my husband keeps on reminding me every time I succumb to my craving. Ever since food is my weakness, I love to eat especially street foods, ice cream and cakes and now it is my biggest problem.

Back then it wasn't really a problem I am very active, I walk and run a lot. However, pregnancy plus post-partum left me a whooping number of pounds, and I needed extra more time running and minding my food intake. But as I cannot snub foodies that easily I manage to find out some options, diet foods as what they call it. Besides fruits and vegetables there are rich in protein food like milk shakes and protein pancakes that got the same taste with its original version minus the excess fats and carbohydrates. At least now I will no longer feel deprive and no more excuses for not loosing these flab.

Starting On

Finally after a long persuasion he gave in, Didi finally join my jogging hooray! There is no way he can decline me especially now that he got a running shoes ha ha! He doesn't actually run, but played badminton with one of our housemate while I go for a mix brisk walking and jogging on the nearby park. We manage to keep going for an hour.
And today he again accompanies me for a daily half hour walk and hopefully we can religiously do it at least four times a week, crossing my finger.

Veet Hair Removal Cream Review

 

How do you get rid of unwanted hair? Back then we use to pluck it using the good old tweezers however, this method is quite painful and leaves a "chicken skin" texture under your arms and sometimes it may develop some ingrown hair. Afterwards, I learned the easier way of shaving with my grandfather's razor hee hee! It was painless, quick and no "chicken skin" after effect, needs a religious application of moisturizer every night to prevent darkening. Then, there is hot and cold wax, both I haven't tried yet and I don't think I will, next came threading, which is also a no no, I can never imagine how painful it is, pulling multiple strands of hair in one snap, ouchy!

After giving birth, I had been very much into child rearing and my beauty regimens almost gone until I noticed that my underarm started getting darker and I don't like seeing it that way. I then tried to look for some whitening creams until I stumble on Veet products, I actually heard about it, but didn't consider of trying one since it costs quite high compared to a pair of razor. I decide to give it a try. It was a Veet Hair Removal Cream for sensitive skin with aloe vera and vitamin E, I bought it in Manila and I'm not sure if how much it costs, about 75 to 80 pesos for 100g if I remember it right.

The box says it works in 5 minutes. However, it was noted that "the time the cream takes to work depends on the hair thickness", but it should not exceed more than 10 minutes. It was designed for legs, underarm and bikini line and can be used anywhere, but not on mole area, face specially on eyes, broken or sunburned skin.

It was easy to use, just apply it directly on skin, evenly spreading it to cover the hair and leave it for 5 minutes. Gently use the pink spatula (supplied inside the pack) to test on small are, if the hair comes away easily remove the rest. If not leave it longer, but not longer than 10 minutes. Rinse your skin with water after. I suggest do the procedure on night before taking your shower since the cream smells sulfure-like and applied some moisturizer for a smoother skin.

I used it trice already and Didi already notice that my underarms is getting lighter and smoother yo! Though the hair grows back easily again after few days, but unlike shaving it was softer.

I will definitely continue on using this product.

Bussiness Ideas, Anyone?

Putting up a retail business is one of our early options right now, we think it's perfect for a starter since we plan to   fly four to six times a year we may as well make use of it as a business opportunity, bringing goods and clothes from here and there depend on the demands of our future client, but to make it clear these are legal goods only.


We plan to start in three months since we will have mid-year flight plan, as early as last month we had been scouting a lot on malls or wherever there is a sale to grab items. Just last week we went to a baby fair in city area and bought branded items in low price like feeding bottles, baby clothes and accessories surely some mommy friends of mine will go crazy knowing I had these items in almost 30% off the price.


I am wondering where we can I get those trade show flooring since one of our aunties is asking me if I can find a dealer for them, another potential goods to market.

We are also planning of setting up a store since my mom is a person who handles marketing very lightly might as well give her a little retail store with logo canopy and logo mats surely she will love the idea.
