Lysol Global Handwashing Campaign

Hi AMW Friends!
Last October 15th, 2014 was Global Hand Washing Day.  I am so sad I missed sharing this campaign because I was really too busy and totally forgot about this campaign!  But because I still want to be part of this campaign and let everyone know how important it is to wash your hands because it really MATTERS to keep good hygiene, I am still sharing this photo of mine with a newly washed hand before and after makeup!


I used to be very lazy in hand washing but ever since I turned into a mom, I made sure to practice cleanliness as when you search online on children's death that are preventable, one major result would be Diarrhea.  And Diarrhea, really, is a preventable illness.

Now that Baby AMW is a very active toddler, I make sure not only to secure his "play area" but I make sure to wash his hands before his meal!  (Tabo, Water, Soap and all!)  I guess he's used to the idea of doing so he actually enjoys playing with water prior to eating!  I hope this simple action will be a habit for him when he grows older.

And thanks to our partner in clean household --- Lysol for sending these products.  You made Mr. AMW very happy because he is one SUPER OC dad and husband who actually enjoys cleaning the house :D  #TrueStory

AMW Reports: Make Up For Ever Step 1 Skin Equalizer Event





A step 1 Skin Equalizer....
Just by its' name, I have this unique, almost "immediately effective" feel!  And you know why?  It is from Make Up For Ever!  

Make Up For Ever and I goes way back before blogging when my best friend studied make up artistry at CAS, I was her model back then and I saw just how effective the product was that most of the students have this brand on their make up train case (yes, I took a peek!  I was in awe back then and I believe that sparked my interest to study Make Up Artistry as well)

AMW Reviews: The Body Shop Tea Tree Flawless BB Cream

Finally!  A review on The Body Shop Tea Tree Flawless BB Cream!  So sorry it took so long!  A lot of my readers requested for a review on this when they saw me posted this product on my Instagram Account. 

What took me so long?  The fact that the product states: "Suitable for Blemished Skin".  Of course, I didn't wish for blemished skin but I was actually waiting for "sudden pimple-appearance" for me to be able to gauge if the product is indeed suitable for blemished skin.


The Body Shop says ---
Perfect your complexion and fight the look of blemishes with our Tea Tree Flawless BB Cream. This dual action cream gives you flawless coverage whilst tackling the appearance of blemishes. Formulated with purifying Community Fair Trade organic tea tree oil from Kenya.
  • Blemishes and imperfections are instantly covered

Weekend Food Trip at: WangFu Chinese Cafe






When I first heard that Teriyaki Boy at Tomas Morato is gone, my reaction was: "OH NO!!!"  
I may not be a super fan of Teriyaki Boy but I got used to seeing that huge sign whenever I pass by the area.  My brother told me about Ser Chief's restaurant called Wangfu and he actually brought my mom and dad to dine there and gave a thumbs up sign...I wasn't impressed.

Seriously, just the usual "use your fame while you have it, open a restaurant!" thing, that's what I thought.

Not until when my good friend from highschool came back for a vacation from the US,  she suggested to try Wangfu as she heard the restaurant serves good food.  Wow, so Wangfu restaurant made its' name even all the way to the US!  It must be good.  

I originally thought I'll see the regular Chinese dish when it took a peak at their menu, I realized, it isn't!  Wangfu offers Chinese-Singaporean cuisine.  You'll see a designated "Singapore Specials" in their menu which is something refreshing to see on a full-breed Chinese named restaurant. 

Before I talk about the food, let me share to you the ambiance,  of course, with the number of times I visited Teriyaki Boy, I can't seem to put away that "Teriyaki Boy" restaurant thought but what I noticed is that Wangfu leveled up the ambiance by adding more lights, changed to better-looking couches and chairs.  The restaurant looks more cozy yet chic.



They included round tables for big gatherings like what we did!  We actually reserved 2 round tables for a grand Pre-Holiday Meetup with my gradeschool/highschool friends.

Jergens

Jergens lotion and I goes way back!  I was a high school student when I received my first bottle (with pump) as given to me by my best friend's dad (yes, close kami!)  And I shared this huge bottle with my mom and sister and the rest was history.

Fast forward to today, Jergens Original Beauty Lotion has been a very important part of our household.  How?  Well, I did share this story before but just in case you forgot, well, my mom is wearing medical stockings for her varicose and poor her for getting all those "itches"!  According to the doctor, it is advisable to apply lotion daily to keep the skin hydrated and thank goodness for Sampleroom as I got a good supply of her favorite Lotion so I'm sharing all these to her!  And my mom was surprised to see there are so many new variants and you know what's her favorite?  The Daily Moisture and Ultra Healing variant!


Personally, I love the Age Defying variant and Soothing Aloe variant!  And my sister? Naku, let's not talk about her, she's addicted to lotions and she loves them all!  

There are so many lotion brands out there but one of my favorite is definitely Jergens!  Because they have so many variants to choose from, they smell great, non-greasy and best of all?  They are inexpensive for the quality you get!  

Full size: 50ml / 100ml bottle / 100ml tube / 200ml / 500ml / 650ml
Price: Php42.00 / Php79.00 /  Php99.00 / Php 137.00 / Php246.00 / Php359.00


What's your favorite Jergens Variant?
