I Wonder: How Do You Relax?

I always answer: "When my son is asleep, one hand holding an iPad watching my favorite films and a cup of coffee or a glass of milk on the other hand."

And yet, I always feel sluggish.  

When my dear brother bought me a Muji Large Aroma Diffuser, we set it in our living room to keep that area fresh and smells great whenever we have visitors coming in!  Okay, the living room turned out to be Toddler AMW's "playground" and most of the time, visitors do not get to sit anymore...well at least, the house smells great so they'll forgive us on not letting them sit!  hahaha

As much as I want to have the whole house smelling clean and fresh or yummy, I can't move the Large Aroma Diffuser around so I am still on the hunt for an inexpensive aroma diffuser.  Scented candles weren't an option because I'm not a candle-person!  Not until I found the brand Heart & Home.  I finally have choice and the scented candles do not smell like candles with a scent, instead, it smells delicious I almost forget we are using candles!

Heart & Home comes with huge selection of fragrance-rich candles, wax melts and votives have been produced to fill our homes with scents depending on our preference and mood.  I believe the company have worked alongside with leading perfumers to build unique scents that is said to help "turn on that lightbulb moment" in our brains!  

True enough, aside from feeling more relaxed, on days, I get to have more ideas on what I want to do with my blog whenever I'm relaxing with soft music and my favorite scent!  I'll share my favorites later on!

Heart & Home Country Kitchen

Php995.00 (approx $23.00) 

Upto 70 hours burn time

L-R French Vanilla, Sweet Black Cherries, Mediterranean Fig and Welcome Home

As much as you and I would like to go "in shock" for the price, I actually find these to be more inexpensive as compared to using fragrance-oil!  This huge candle goes a long way!  After a month's usage, I still haven't finish 1/4 of the candle and I'm actually looking forward to finish 1 to try on the next one!  

AMW Reviews: Etude House Sunprise Natural Corrector SPF50+/PA+++

Just when you thought you can say bye-bye to your sunblock application because you think summer is almost over!  Well, that's what you think!!!  

I am so thankful that our generation today is more in-the-know with the importance of sunblock because during my time, I only have a choice between COPPERTONE and...OH!  Coppertone!  I clearly remember how high SPF25 sounds and how we purchase this expensive brand ONLY for beach trips!  

Lucky YOU girls and boys because more and more brand are coming up with Sunscreens that would suit your needs!  Just like Etude House, they came up with Sunprise range with 4 different variants so you really don't have any good reason to skip application!

Now on to the review, I have the Natural Corrector variant which is perfect for make-up wearers!

Eureka Moment: Hydrated Skin Minus the Greasy Feeling!

These products from Kracie called Natululu Skin Conditioner deserves ONE BIG POST with the 2 words --- EUREKA MOMENT!

FINALLY!  A hydrating skin conditioner that felt like water yet it works in hydrating your skin!  I can't believe someone finally thought of it!  Well, for the Japanese, nothing is impossible!

I know there are a lot of "lightweight" lotions that are coming out in the market!  But with the intense heat and humidity that we are experiencing, plus the fact that I have a super clingy son who almost lives beside me 24/7, I find myself applying less and less lotion and my skin is suffering big time!  So when I saw the newest product line from Kracie called Natululu Skin Conditioner, I immediately tested both out in the most extreme weather condition as possible!  Outdoors, indoors, while cooking, etc...!

There are a total of 3 variants and I got to try 2!

Natululu says ---
Hydrate your skin sans the greasy feeling with this latest moisture-rich skin conditioner/lotion in the form of water, which can be applied to your face and body.  Formulated with plant-base Ceramide Misture for Skin nourishment.

Weekend Food Trip at: Jipan, Glorietta

Wow, for the past 2 years, I can't seem to get a decent "couple-fie" photo with the mister!  When we both had a bit of time to kill with my super momma looking after my son at home, I've decided --- yes!  I HAVE DECIDED to take him out for a date!  A simple food trip because we missed dining in a restaurant without the rush!  Or without me having to feed myself and my son at the same time!

As we were searching for a good restaurant, we passed by our favorite BF-GF hang-out restuarant at Glorietta, JIPAN restaurant!  We used to just sit anywhere and order anything between Sakura and Jipan AND Cheesecake but now, they seem to have this segregation!  So we picked Jipan because I remembered loving their food --- a lot! 

And years passed, as we try to still look like girlfriends and boyfriends.... *laughs*

The food at Jipan still tastes amazing! 

Gyoza
Choice of Pork or Vegetables
Php185.00

Mr. AMW has always been a fan of Gyoza so he went ahead and ordered this!  I tried one and I told him 1 is enough for me!  The oily taste left a taste in my mouth, it wasn't that bad, but I'm just not a fan of extremely oily food!

Check out that happy face!  That's a face after picking up some make up!

Seldom will you find me strolling around the mall without that "in a hurry" look, I'm always in a hurry running errands and obviously, I don't have time to shop for myself!  Well, I do, I just choose to spend my time wisely thinking about my family than myself!
