Weekend Staycation at: Ascott Makati

The last time we stayed at Ascott Makati was for my mom and dad's surprise Golden Wedding Anniversary Party.

In just a year's time, there are so many changes in this property and I'm glad to be invited to check out their new facilities and offers.

I was invited with fellow Bloggers and Media Friends over the weekend with our respective families!  Thank you so much Ascott Makati and Fuentes Manila for the warm welcome.

We all met at the new Executive Lounge located at the 6th Floor of Ascott Makati for check-in and welcome snacks and drinks.  I had the chance to catch up with old friends and meet new ones.

The Executive Lounge is open for guests who are checked in at the suites of the hotel.

International Press Shopping Day with Shiseido, Elizabeth Arden and Guerlain

How does it feel to see Shiseido, Guerlain and Elizabeth Arden products all together in ONE location?

OVERWHELMING!




These 3 brands comprise Luxasia's Prestige Cosmetics Division and they dubbed that special day as International Press Shopping Day!

Benefit Dandelion Dew is Freshness in A Bottle!

Yes, there is indeed such thing as "Freshness in a Bottle" because every time I wear my Benefit Dandelion Dew, I always get complimented on being "fresh" even if I just came out from gazillion of meetings, work with less than 5 hours of sleep!  

I was recently gifted with a generous sample size of Dandelion Dew which is also known as a Soft Baby-Pink Radiance for Cheeks and I've been using it for weeks now and I still have a lot left!

There's a New Facial Oil in Town --- Marula Oil

Even with dry skin, I find myself veering away from anything "oil" on my face!  The first oil-based product I've used is Kiehl's Midnight Recovery, which worked for me by the way.  Afterwards, I've heard so many brands coming up with their own version of oils and I find myself staying shy and just going for what works for me.

Recently, I got Marula Pure Beauty Oil for review.  I was extremely hesitant and did my research first.  Marula Pure Beauty Oil is the only doctor-endorsed and scientifically proven all-natural beauty oil.  It is the ultimate age-defying beauty oil made from 99% marula oil with 1% blend of natural essential oils for a light, natural scent.  This is complete free of preservatives, synthetics and parabens which gave me a strong push to try out this product.

The Pure Marula Facial Oil is housed in a glass bottle with a "dropper" which I appreciate.

What's a Verve Life?

When we talk about people with "Active Lifestyle", we immediately think about those who love to go to the gym, those who run, those who are "physically moving". 

For me, someone who is active does not only contain to those descriptions above, I can call myself a really "active" person for the fact that I have this need to be Productive all day!  I have a lot of stuff to be done in a day and truthfully, MUSIC definitely plays a HUGE role in my daily life!  Feel free to ask my close friends, they know I jiggle and wiggle my way to work!

So when Motorola invited me to learn about the VERVE Life, I knew this is something I would be interested in because their aim is to give people with an active, social lifestyle more freedom and connection to the world around them.  Someone just like YOU and ME!

Thankfully, brands like Motorola created VerveLife, this is designed for people who ant to have it all, and are determined to get what they want.  The brand is moving towards a wireless age and they recognize our needs NOT to be physically restricted.
