Why I Love Facial Care Centre's LaserLight Treatments



Remember when I shared to you AMW Friends my first Laserlight Underarms experience with Facial Care Centre

Well, I am hairfree on my underarms on my 7th treatment and I asked the therapist (randomly) if I can have my upperlip "Laserlight" too!  She said yes and guess what?  I booked myself a session immediately and here's what I have to say!

Just to refresh you ---
LaserLight Hair Removal painlessly, permanently, and safely reduces unwanted hair using the combination of the Gold Standard 810-nm diode and IN-Motion technology. Directly targets the hair follicles, preventing the growth of new hair, in a pain-free, comfortable treatment experience.

Firstly, you have to book yourself an appointment to have yourself checked if the treatment is right for you.  I showed my concern to the Professional before you dive into a treatment.  

I was told the LaserLight Upper Lip treatment would take longer than LaserLight Underarms (the latter would take approximately 6-8 treatments depending on your hair).  I am happy I was given a bit of expectation from the start so I signed up for it.

Although I have very good experience with LaserLight Underarms, I am still scared when any device is put on my face!  I was assured by the staff that it is very safe and comfortable and I can immediately go out with no down time.



True enough, if you check out my video, I did not flinch or move at all!  The staffs are super friendly and kept on checking with me if I am doing okay.  Best of all?  I don't feel any pain at all!  After the treatment, I do not see any skin redness, inflammation or allergic reactions!  The first treatment was great I booked my 2nd session a month after right away!

TIP:Do not wash your face or wear makeup within 24 hours after treatment.  The friction may cause allergic reaction on the sensitive area.

So now, as of writing, I've done 2 sessions and can't wait to go for my 3rd.  And here's the best news of all --- I haven't seen a single "thick" upper lip hair for 2 months now!  I say THICK as there could still be light strands of upper lip hair that I can't seem to see, but overall, I feel more confident and happy I don't need to have to worry about my "woman beard!"

Why You Should Book A Family Staycation at Novotel Manila Araneta Center




If you browse my blog, you'll find that I have quite a number of hotel stays in the past!  Due to my extremely busy schedule, instead of traveling outside the Metro for a local trip, I'd rather book a weekend staycation at hotels because I find it the easiest way to relax without the hassle of long drive.  

Families with active kids, I'm sure you understand why I dislike the long drive!  *winks*

After Kyle's 2nd quarter examination week, it was perfect timing for my family to be invited by Novotel Manila Araneta Center to spend a weekend there!  

My husband used to live at the area and told me loads of stories on how busy the area gets!  From Araneta Center BusPort to Gateway Mall, SM Mall, Ali Mall, Farmers' Plaza to Araneta Coliseum.  No wonder this area is nicknamed the "City of the Stars".  As much as Makati and BGC is the "it" place for hotel staycations, I find myself loving the vibe Novotel Manila Araneta Center offers and let me share to you the reasons why!



BEDROOM
There are a total of 401 rooms divided into 5 categories - Superior Room, Deluxe Room and Executive Room, Executive Suite, Presidential Suite with 1 Premier Lounge (which is the highlight of this Staycation as well!  Will talk about it soon!)

We were booked at the Executive Room and upon entering, we were greeted with such warm welcome!  



Personal note from the hotel staff.  Thank you!

Full Face Avon Makeup Look #AMWIGtv



So I got invited to judge Avon's Great Glam Race early this month, one of the challenge I've seem the brand gave to the contenders is to create All Avon Makeup Look on IG TV!

The Glam Racers get the chance to grab products from Mark, Avon True and Simply Pretty for 1 minute.  Because of that, I was inspired to do a similar challenge....create an ALL AVON FACE and I came up with this!

Simple....fresh....and glowing.

I hope you like this video!

Midweek Food Trip at: La Vita



I love a good pasta and a good pizza. 
And when I travel 2 hours one way to a restaurant, I pray to the food Gods it must be worth it!

Thankfully, La Vita restaurant located at Podium Mall did not fail!  


I was lucky enough to be invited for a small gathering with fellow Blogging friends.  Our schedules were all different but I am glad we made it to this gathering and we are even more fortunate enough to meet Chef Maurizio Gibillini - Chef of La Vita Restaurant.  This man is a character, full of stories to tell and ingredients to share!  I love how he was able to establish authentic and modern Italian cuisine on every single plate that was served that night.

We were told by Chef Bibillini that all the main ingredients such as tomatoes, mushrooms, mozzarella cheese and pasta are imported from Italy while other food components such as vegetables, fish and clams are sourced locally to guarantee freshness.

My #LittleDapitan Finds Located at Ayala Cloverleaf



Who would've thought a busy mom like me were able to shop for Christmas gift giving as early as October?

FIRST TIME IN HISTORY (I would say!)  Because I am a huge crammer when it comes to Christmas Gifts Shopping.  Thankful with the grand opening of Little Dapitan located at Balintawak (a few steps away from Ayala Cloverleaf Mall), with over 20 stalls that offers unique Christmas gifts from home decors, furniture, bags, wallets, etc... at a bargain price - who can say no to that?


I know I mentioned I will write about my "finds" but guess what?  I actually rounded up everything I see that caught my attention and I think will also spark your interest because each booth offers something unique and you'll definitely find something for EVERYONE!



My eyes were fixed to all these Christmas Decors - these can be used on Christmas Trees or you can even find decors to be displayed on living room or dining area!
