AMW Reviews: Human Nature Balm For All Seasons

Just what I need, a soothing balm for my tired muscles that is 100% natural!  I recently got sick together with Baby AMW over the weekend.  I threw up once (no I'm not pregnant) and my whole body was aching.  As a hands-on mom, I don't have the luxury of "time-off" as I need to look after my little one especially since he was also sick!  

Thankfully, I was able to see Human Nature's Balm for All Seasons which was tucked inside my storage bin!  It must be heaven sent as I suddenly saw this tiny little pot peeking right back at me when I was searching for baby diaper rash cream.  

I took this out immediately and applied a few amount under my nose and on my shoulders.  I've used this tiny pot over the weekend and I will be sharing my initial thoughts and review on this small wonder!



Human Nature says ---
Give the gift of peace of mind with our 100% Natural Balm for All Seasons.
One whiff is all it takes to get you hooked. Breathe in the goodness and let the good vibes from this mint balm soothe away the tensions of your daily hectic lifestyle. Let this all-around wonder balm's infusion of peppermint, eucalyptus, and bergamot help relieve stress, mental fatigue, dizziness, body aches, and even skin boo-boos.

AMW Wears: Fabelt Shorts

Happy Monday AMW friends :)
I am finally posting yet another "fashion" related post.  I have been asked by my reader so many times on how I dress up on events that I attend to and who are my fashion icons.  

Here's the thing, I am definitely not a very fashionable person but I understand clothes that works for my body.  You wouldn't believe it but Mr. AMW is one lucky guy!  I don't go into shops, stay there for hours and try on piles and piles of clothing!  I have this "spidey" sense by just taking a peak inside the store and if something caught my eye, I'll get my size, try it and usually buy them especially if they are on sale! :)  

Yes, I am a smart shopper even way before I had Baby AMW!  I just don't believe in spending SO much just to look good!  If KERI MO, KERI MO kahit Php50.00 pa yang top mo! :) (If the top works for you, it'll work for you even if it costs $1.00) AGREE?

I am posting my recent outfit from yesterday!  We went to visit my mom and dad so I've decided to dress comfortably (with baby around) and of course, I had to make sure I wear something that works for our super hot weather!  It was perfect timing for me to grab my Jetaimemnl Fabelt Shorts!  


FABELT stands for fabric belt.  The owners are young, fresh college grad so I'm really happy to support these young girls on their endeaver!

My First Givenchy Scent --- PLAY

I love it when there's a new scent for me to try!  I love perfumes, EDT, Cologne, scents overall and I can't deny that!  I mentioned on my blog so many times how I associate scent with important days of my life!  And I can't wait to include the newest Givenchy Play for Her EDT. 

Givenchy Play is my first Givenchy scent ever, for a luxury brand, I originally thought PLAY would be somewhat mature, boring and predictable.

Guess what?  All my adjectives are wrong!  Givenchy Play For Her has a fruity floral notes giving a carefree, spontaneous vibe!


Exactly like how the bottle looks, very plain at first glance but upon closer look, the bottle has the power to make me stare even longer!  That's the power of a women's seduction.


According to Givenchy ---
"The top notes reveal the fragrance's fersh and joyful character: Juicy wine peach blended with stimulating and almost acidic white currant echo bank to this young audacious woman.  The middle notes expose a more intimate facet.  The powdery accents of white iris give a gourmand twist with liquorice blossom.  The base notes, creamy amyris wood - the central olfactory theme of PLAY".
Givenchy Play for Her EDT is available in 30ml (Php2,950.00), 50ml (Php4,100) and 75ml (Php4,900).  Exclusively distributed by Rustans Marketing Corporation and available in leading department stores nationwide.

Something New: GirlStuff Nail Polish Summer 2014

Even if I don't do nail art as often as before, I still get excited when a new polish collection comes along.  Especially from a brand that is safe for pregnant, breastfeeding, even for kids!  

I've used Girl Stuff Nail Polishes for quite some time and I have to say, this is one of the best safe, inexpensive nail polish I've tried!  And what got me more excited?  When I visited their booth at SM Mall of Asia and found better shades to choose from!  I mean seriously, they have a wide range of shades that excites even ME who collects loads of nail polish shades!  

This summer, Girl Stuff came up with 4 really bright, summer-y colors! :)  I can't wait to try them!


Pink, Orange, Yellow and Purple...what's not to love?

For your reference, here are the shade names

AMW Reviews: L'Oreal Shine Caresse

When I was in the US, I visit Target and Costco A LOT!  I wasn't able to take "ninja shots" on beauty products (Blame Baby AMW for that!)  I was able to check out products we don't have here!  I was moping around telling Mr. AMW why can't we have it all down here....

Look what I got when I arrived!  Ahhhh, this is one of the product I nearly purchased! (aside from Almay and Neutrogena)

L'Oreal Paris Shine Caresse


Shade: 609 Beach Berry
