That's why when I got an invite to Watsons Bath to Basics event held at Neo Ki Spa, BGC, I told myself I have to be there as I get my bath essentials from where else? Watsons! Feel free to tell me if you do too!
For someone who frequents at Watsons, I can't believe I'm seeing a lot of new products I probably didn't take notice of! Lots of the Watsons labeled products I used to salivate when I travel to other countries, fortunately, now, I don't have to! We definitely have broader range (especially on bath products) available locally!
On the day of the event, Watsons Philippines
launched the Bath to Basics campaign not only to educate us about the
importance of maintaining and boosting their bathing habits to achieve better
health and skin, but also for us to learn the different body care products
available to help complete our bath regimen --- from bar soap to body wash,
body scrubs to bath salts! Yes, there are so much more to choose from to
fit your body needs!
On
the side note, just something fun to share: If you put a group of bloggers
together in 1 room and check out what happens! *lol*
Organize your bathroom.
- Trash it, toss it, and dump it! Learn to throw products you don't use to prevent clutter.
- Utilize bathroom space. Keep the products you use frequently within reach!
- Organize products you use daily. Segregate products you use the most and pile them in front while the not-so-frequently-used bath products can be hidden at the back side of your bathroom counter.
- Never use hot water. TRUE! You use warm water to take a bath.
- Some great ideas come in a shower! TRUE! Because bathing is the time where you let go of your worries, that's when ideas come in!
- Don't take a bath after meal. As much as I would love to say this is a Myth, it is indeed has a bit of science to it! It is scientifically proven that taking a bath after meal may relaxes your body thus slowing down digestion! So it is better to give it some time to rest your body before you take a shower.
Thanks to Ms. Lim's talk we learned all the
basics about taking care of oneself, we were then ushered to Ki Neo Spa's
shower area for a bath and massage experience. The shower experience was
amazing as the bathroom were filled with Watsons Bath and Body products. It
was funny how I had a hard time choosing between Strawberry or Papaya scented
bath milk then ended up using Watsons Deep Moisturizing Body Scrub Cocoa
Butter using a loofah which smells amazing and my skin was really soft and
smooth after the shower. I loved it so much I actually bought 2 after the
event!
Now let's talk about the 1 hour body
massage! I haven't had a decent massage for the past...1 year?
Though inside my head I was thinking about Kyle and how he was doing, I went
into temporary bliss and dozed into lalaland when Pam (the wonderful
masseuse) gave me one of the best body massages I've tried to date.
I honestly didn't know they were still using
Watsons product during the massage but as soon as I blurted out to Pam how much
I dislike the greasy-feel post-massage, I touched my skin to give her an
example and got amazed on how grease-free my skin feels! I learned she
used Watsons Evening Primrose Body Oil during massage. The scent
is very light so I almost didn't smell the usual "spa-oil" scent but
the amazing thing about this oil is how it easily gets absorbed into my skin
leaving no oily-feel no matter how of the product was applied!
Just when I thought the massage itself was
the best treat of the day! Well, we were in for a surprise when each
blogger were given a Php1,000 Watsons gift certificate challenge. For 15
minutes, we need to shop for Watsons Label Bath Products and whoever buys the
most Watsons Label products win a Free Ki Neo Spa GC. I did not win the
challenge but you know what? Here's what I got to take home after the
shopping challenge.

I want to thank Watsons Philippine for inviting me to such a fun and eye-opening event! Though it broke my heart to leave Baby AMW for the afternoon, I came back home rejuvenated and I got the energy to play with him all night! So true when they say, if you want to give the best for your kids, you have to take care of yourself first!
Watson’s Philippines’
last leg of the bath to Basics campaign will be held in SM Manila from August

That

to boost our bathroom habits to achieve better health and skin without much
effort. Seriously, who can go to a spa
everyday right? With the right products
from body scrubs, bath salts, body washes, you know you can always recreate the
“Spa-like” feel after every bath.
