Kisses Delavin spreads good vibes at TriNoma for Vivo V9 mall tour

The rain ain’t stopping Kisses Delavin’s sunshine. Despite the gloomy weather on a Sunday afternoon, the young star spread nothing but warm and sunny vibes as she met fans during the Vivo V9 mall tour at TriNoma.

“I am Kisses Delavin and I am here to make you happier,” she introduced herself.

Kisses who wore an all-red ensemble entertained the audience with a medley of Taylor Swift’s hits and her original song, Pretty Boy, from her self-titled debut album. 

          Kisses mesmerizes the TriNoma crowd with her infectious charm.





The rain also did not stop Kisses’ fans from trooping to TriNoma to show their support for the young star.

19-year-old Kisses has been a proud member of the ever-growing Vivo family since September 2017. She said she has been using the Vivo smartphones for personal use since then.

“My favorite feature of the Vivo V9 is the camera,” she said of the latest model.

It was indeed a good choice since Vivo V9 has a 24-megapixel AI selfie camera with a 16MP+5MP dual rear camera and a 6.3-inch FullView™ View, among other features.

The Vivo V9 is available at all authorized shops for Php17,990 in Pearl Black, Gold, and Velvet Red.

Time to switch up to Amway's Nutrilite Phyto Powder

Anything can happen to you when you are dehydrated.  What are the common symptoms if you are dehydrated?  Dry skin all over. Dry eyes. Muscle cramps, due to exercise. Dark urine. Lack of sweat.  Dehydration also can keep you from being as fast and as sharp as you'd like to be.


Our body needs water to to keep us hydrated. The body can hold on to water when you don't have enough or get rid of it if you have too much.

Plain water is good but a combination of water, electrolytes and sodium is really the best way to stay hydrated.

         PhytoPowder comes in two variants, Refresh Lemon for regular  hydration

The body needs a lot of water when one is working out. Like,  if you are on the cardio machine for 30 minutes - 1 hour. Like what I have been doing. Your body starts to crave water or electrolyte water juice  for dehydration. I remember taking a supplement drink when I lack sleep due to working the night shift. I thought I am getting the right vitamins particularly Vitamin B complex for my nerves and mental performance.

When I attended the Nutrilite Phyto event, I was informed that Nutrilite is much better than the one I have been taking for the past 9 years.

I guess I need to replace my former vitamin supplements with Nutrilite. It has the same taste and flavor but  Nutrilite has all the nutrients I need for my body.

                Phtyo Powder Electrolyte Orange for those extra active days

Rehydration is absolutely vital, especially for those who live active lifestyles, and for oral rehydration, the new gold standard is Amway’s Nutrilite PhytoPowder.  No other drink on the market offers the benefits of Nutrilite PhytoPowder, and the fact that it comes in convenient foil stick packs means you can drink it anywhere there is drinking water.  PhytoPowder is truly a rehydration solution like no other.

It is no secret that the human body is mostly water, but science has shown that when we sweat, drink too much alcohol, or when we have diarrhea, we lose not just water but the ability to retain water.  This is because the electrolytes that allow the human body to retain water are in fact water soluble, the water we lose also washes away electrolytes as we lose it. 

This is why electrolyte drinks are more effective for oral rehydration than water alone.  The infusion of electrolytes quickly restores the body’s ability to maintain the correct percentage of water, something that we literally need in order to survive.    However, it has been known for some time that apart from water and electrolytes we also lose water soluble vitamins during the course of the day, more so when we are active, among these are vitamins, such as Vitamin B Complex, and Vitamin C.

That is why so many swear that water soluble vitamin supplements are a great hangover remedy.  A hangover, is essentially the result of dehydration, and water-soluble vitamin supplementation partially addresses the dehydration by replacing lost vitamins.

Unlike their fat-soluble counterparts, water soluble vitamins are used up quickly and more frequently especially when we are more active.  They can and should be replenished often in a single day.  They provide all kinds of mental and physical benefits from improved alertness to increased energy, to improved immune function.  It is also nearly impossible to overdose on water soluble vitamins, because we simply get rid of excess quantities through urination.


Nutrilite’s PhytoPowder is a healthy beverage that addresses dehydration while providing important water soluble Vitamin replenishment at the same time, all in an easy to prepare, and great tasting, low calorie drink.

The benefits don’t stop there though, PhytoPowder is phytonutrient and fiber enhanced.  Phytonutrients are plant based compounds with myriad benefits that were first identified by Nutrilite founder Carl Rhenborg in 1934.  Phytonutrients are powerful antioxidants and have been found to have color specific benefits.  The color of the plant from which a particular Phytonutrient is extracted determines what benefits it delivers.

The benefits of phytonutrients are as diverse as improved vision, improved mental alertness, improved joints, prostate health, cellular health and many more.  The benefits of fiber are well documented, particularly its role in digestion, nutrient absorption and detoxification.


Aside from the fact that a stick pack dissolves conveniently in water, another convenience feature of PhytoPowder is the fact that each stick pack delivers benefits that no healthy beverage comes close to offering.  To get the same benefits as PhytoPowder from other “healthy” beverages, you would probably end up having to drink more than one “healthy” drink, combined with a supplement or two, and yet still you wouldn’t get phytonutrients.

This makes PhytoPowder the perfect hydration companion for those with busy or extra active lifestyles.  PhytoPowder comes in two variants, Refresh Lemon for regular hydration, and Electrolyte Orange for those extra active days.

The fiber, vitamins and phytonutrients in PhytoPowder are obtained through Nutrilite’s unique seed to supplement approach.  Nutrilite employs 150 scientists at any given time and does exhaustive research into plants and other possible sources of all kinds of beneficial nutrients.  Plants that are identified as having beneficial compounds are grown on certified organic farms all over the globe.  The active nutrients that go into all Nutrilite products are derived exclusively from these plants.

Nutrilite takes great care to see to it that plants mature to an age that has been determined to be the optimal for the extraction of active ingredients, this ensures that the active ingredients in Nutrilite products are of only the highest quality and potency.

 To date, Nutrilite is the only manufacturer of health supplements that has this exhaustive seed to supplement process.  They also have meticulous quality standards, that see 500,000 quality evaluations performed annually.  Nutrilite is exclusively distributed in the Philippines and globally by Amway.

Vivo is launching first X series here in the Philippines

Young global smartphone brand Vivo is taking the game a notch higher, launching its first X-series model in the Philippines in June.

Vivo X21, the latest flagship smartphone, breaks world records as it introduces Vivo’s In-Display Fingerprint Scanning technology. It replaces the traditional rear fingerprint sensor commonly found on many smartphones.

              “Vivo is launching it’s first X series here in the Philippines”


The In-Display Fingerprint Scanning technology was preceded by the Under-Display Fingerprint Scanning Solution unveiled during the Mobile World Congress in Shanghai in 2017—the first of its kind in the world.

This was no surprise since Vivo has introduced many firsts in the past. It is the first to launch smartphone with a 24-megapixel selfie camera in V7 and V7+. It is also a pioneer in launching a 20MP dual front camera smartphone in V5Plus.

In February 2018, Vivo launched its APEX FullView Concept Smartphone, its “ultimate iteration” for the future full-screen smartphone. The APEX features several innovative technologies including the Half-Screen In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology, Elevating Front Camera and Screen SoundCasting Technology, aside from the nearly 100% screen-to-body ratio.

Based on Vivo’s innovation pace and with the upcoming release of the X21 with its In-Display Fingerprint Scanning technology, the young smartphone surely outsmarted the other players in the field.

Post Modern Jukebox Live in Manila at the Kia Theatre on Friday, 14th September 2018

Have you ever thought how Justin Bieber’s “Sorry” would have sounded if it came out in the 60’s or if Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” could make a 1950’s prom even more romantic?



The once-popular phrase may be “everything old is new again,” but for Scott Bradlee, it might read everything new is old again.



Instead of just doing covers, music arranger and pianist Scott Bradlee formed an ensemble band of throwbox minstrels called Post Modern Jukebox (PMJ) that takes modern pop hits and plays them in ragtime, vintage jazz and other retro musical styles.

 “Today's hits, yesterday” was the inspiration behind Post Modern Jukebox’s unique retro-reworkings of modern pop and rock hits. The multi-talented collective reimagines contemporary pop, rock and R&B hits in the style of various yesteryears, from swing to doo-wop, ragtime to Motown – or, as Bradlee himself puts it, “pop music in a time machine.”



It’s an idea Bradlee had as far back as high school.

“When I was in high school, I was getting into really like early jazz, stuff like ragtime and New Orleans music and things like that,” Bradlee said. “You can imagine that most of my peers weren’t really into that kind of music. They didn’t play a whole lot of ragtime at school dances back then. So I wanted to be able to share this with my friends, and one thing I wound up doing since I had pretty good ears—I taught myself a lot by ear—I would just kind of pick out pop songs that they liked and turned them into ragtime or jazz and stuff.”

PMJ had its humble beginnings in the cramped basement of Bradlee’s apartment in Queens, New York, where he shot videos with a small group of college friends.



The group’s big break came after doing a jazzy cover of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ ‘Thrift Shop’ which became viral, reaching over a million views in its first week and climbing to #8 on Billboard magazine’s Jazz Albums chart. Bradlee and crew then followed it up with Miley Cyrus’ ‘We Can’t Stop’ and true enough there was simply no stopping PMJ as it found its way out of Bradlee’s basement apartment and into bigger, more elaborate venues and mainstream consciousness.



Post Modern Jukebox’s choice of material ranges from the ‘80s hard rock of Guns N’ Roses to the most current hits of today and they are performed by a rotating cast of musicians, including numerous American Idol alumni, wearing the same fashion pieces as their version’s particular era or genre.



To date, they have amassed over a billion views on their YouTube channel, and they have covered artists ranging from Lady Gaga to Radiohead, Taylor Swift to  Maroon 5 and many others, giving their hits a vintage makeover like jazz, swing and ragtime.

“I take pride in putting together the right powers and personalities to create a unique and amazing experience for our fans,” Bradlee says in an interview. “We want them to escape reality and join us for the most sensational 1920s party this side of The Great Gatsby. We want them to experience what it was like to be at the New Years' Eve show that Sinatra would have hosted in the 1940s. We want them to feel the excitement of hearing the greats of Motown live and up close. Our goal is to give our audiences their favorite show again and again and still have it feel like the very first time.”

The Houston Press proclaimed, “Scott Bradlee’s project has turned into a worldwide phenomenon in quite a small amount of time, having sold out shows in more than 60 countries around the world – and rightly so.”



And as any Post Modern Jukebox fan can tell you, the experience is never the same twice, with new songs, new sounds, and new members added to the ever-growing family each time around.



Finally, Pinoy enthusiasts can now experience Pop Music in a Time Machine as Midas Productions presents Post Modern Jukebox Live in Manila at the Kia Theatre  on Friday, 14th September 2018.
