Australian Creams is now available in the PH


I have been using moisturizers and sunblocks for almost 2 decades now. My dermatologist advised using those to keep wrinkles at bay. Investing on a good moisturizer is a must when you are my age. That's why I suggest you start using moisturizer in your 20s. The first signs of sun damage do generally show up in your 30s.

By taking early action, you can make a significant impact on your skin’s future health.

My high end skincare brand costs me a lot. I hate to admit this but I set aside budget for it. That's why Im still on the look out for an affordable, organic skin care with Vitamin C on it. 


As we all know, many anti-aging wrinkle creams and serums are filled with toxic chemicals that could harm the skin. Until I chanced upon #australiancreamsph products in a recent event.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant skincare to brighten skin.It helps to improve discoloration, even tone, soften skin's texture and diminish fine lines as well.


G&M Native Australian Kakadu Plum Complex is the world's richest source of Natural Vitamin C. Its organic, paraben and gluten-free. I have yet to try this one. 


G&M Cosmetics Pty Ltd. and P2P launches the G&M Australian Creams at Bonifacio Hall A Shangri-La at the Fort in Taguig City, Metro Manila last January 29, 2020. 



The high-quality creams has four different variants such as Lanolin Oil Cream, Emu Oil Creams, Goat's Milk and Manuka Honey Cream, Vitamin E Skin Repair Cream are some of the products that were introduced during the event. These creams are preferred by more consumers in Australia and Asian countries like Hong Kong, Korea, China and Malaysia and will now be available in the Philippine market for us to enjoy the same skin benefits that others are already enjoying at a reasonable price.



Australian Creams
The Australian Creams range features premium grade natural, iconic Australian active ingredients, which all have wonderful properties. These products are lightweight and have a quick absorption rate on the skin, which means they are an excellent option for both face and body. This range offers excellent value for money products and is suitable for everyday use for the whole family.



Lanolin Oil Cream (Moisturizes and Softens the Skin)
This cream helps the skin to minimize wrinkles, nourishes, and protects the skin, this is perfect for dry and damaged skin. Lanolin is a natural emollient that has a lipid (oil) profile very similar to sebum (skin oil) and therefore contributes moisture to the stratum corneum (outer layer of the skin).
Lanolin adds to the natural protective mantel of the skin to prevent moisture loss. The Night Cream has a richer concentration of active ingredients, intended for a heavier, more prolonged absorption into the skin overnight, whilst your rest.


Emu Oil Creams (Hydrates and Soothes the Skin) 
The active key ingredient of this cream (Emu Oil) helps skin rejuvenation, it relieves skin irritation and soothes muscle and joint pains. Our Emu Oil is purely sourced from sustainable emu farms and is pharmaceutical grade. The oil is a 100% natural derivative of our national icon and is extracted under the strictest conditions. Historically, Emu Oil has been used by the Aborigines for the treatment of burns, wounds, and bruises. With its powerful antioxidant properties, Emu Oil can also be considered for skin cell rejuvenation and anti-wrinkle defense.


Goat's Milk and Manuka Honey Cream
Nourishes and softens and rejuvenates skin It also has Anti-Bacterial, Anti-inflammatory & Anti-Oxidant qualities. Goats Milk is a natural wonder, with infusions of milk proteins, vitamins A, B12, B6E, amino acids, and natural lactic acid, which may contribute the regulating the pH of your skin and stimulate healthy skin renewal, a great option for combination and oily skin types.





Vitamin E Skin Repair Cream 
Repair and Soothes Skin Protects cell and supports skin natural healing abilities and provides soothing relief. Luxurious cream formulated to refresh and soothe dry & damaged skin. Because of its antioxidant activity, vitamin E is vital in protecting skin cells from ultraviolet light, pollution, and other elements that produce cell-damaging free radicals. Vitamin E also helps reduce the appearance of stretch marks and age spots.


Aside from the Australian Creams range, the new and improved Australian Creams MKII series, Native Australian, MAXI BLOCK, P'ure Papayacare and Dr.V will also be available to the Philippine Market to meet the needs of Filipinos for better skincare products. The MKII Series are Paraben Free and Mineral Oil Free. Instead, Sunflower Oil and Sweet Almond Oil were used.

Introducing Under Armour's 2020 Global Brand Platform—The Only Way Is Through



One last drive. Three seconds left on the clock. The point two of 26.2. 5:00 a.m. after 5 straight days. Bumps, bruises, and breaks—mental and physical. In an athlete’s life, barriers are everywhere. From the daily grind, to the crippling pressure, to the trials and tribulations of life outside the gym, the pursuit of getting better is a constant challenge and test. While progress and self-improvement looks different for each athlete, there’s still only one possible mindset—The Only Way Is Through. It’s an understanding that to reach whatever goals lie ahead, you must stay the path to come out faster, stronger—better—on the other side. 



The Only Way Is Through is representative of the next frontier for Under Armour—the opportunity of 2020 and beyond. The campaign brings to life the real value of momentum; how momentum through work helps athletes push themselves to be better than what they thought possible, and how Under Armour technology—with groundbreaking product innovations like UA HOVR, UA RUSH and UA Recover—is supporting those athletes constantly in search of incremental change in an effort to get better.


 The campaign debuted last January 15, 2020 in Baltimore, among a global gathering of Under Armour athletes, trainers, teammates, media, and more, as part of a two-day immersion into the next year of Under Armour innovation. The platform launch includes a 90-second anthem, and will be supported with additional content throughout the year, including spotlight pieces telling the stories of all types of athletes and exploring their “through” moments. 



As Under Armour and its athletes bring to life this vision for 2020 and beyond, The Only Way Is Through becomes a rallying cry for the brand in an effort to motivate and inspire athletes around the world to put in the work and get better.
The anthem content features a wide array of athletes and teams, including: 
Stephen Curry, three-time Champion and two-time MVP
DK Metcalf, star receiver for Seattle
Trent Alexander-Arnold, homegrown superstar and UCL winner for Liverpool
Kelley O’Hara, Olympic Gold Medalist and two-time World Cup winner
Georgia Ellenwood, eight-time All American and 2018 D1 Heptathalon Champion
Zhu Ting, Olympic Gold Medalist and two-time Volleyball World Cup Champion
Tom Brady, six-time Champion, three-time MVP
Michael Phelps, the most decorated swimmer of all time
Kyle Dietz, former MMA fighter turned long distance trail runner after brain tumor diagnosis
Adinda Sukardi, Under Armour Indonesia Ambassador
St. John’s College High School Girls Basketball 
Mission Viejo High School Football 
City College High School Boys Basketball 
University of Notre Dame Football


The Only Way Is Through platform will come to life this 2020 through experiential events in major cities such as New York, London and Shanghai. Under Armour, in partnership with iHeartRadio, is also launching The Only Way Is Through podcast, which will offer listeners access into the world of elite athletes and their stories, training, and mentors.



The Only Way Is Through will run across broadcast, online, out-of-home, and social media platforms with a focus on key global sport and cultural moments in 2020. Activations with Under Armour's world-class roster of athletes, trainers, grassroots and collegiate partners will continue to deliver the message throughout the year.

Check out UA.com for the latest performance product and innovations that our athletes put to the test every day, including UA RUSH™; UA HOVR™ Machina; UA Recover products, and more.

Decode Your Pizza Personality This #GreenwichWorldPizzaDay

Everyone has their own style of doing things – from speaking, walking, dressing up, and working in the office. But did you know that the way you eat also reveals a lot about your personality? Take pizza, for example. You’d be surprised by the different ways barkadas satisfy their pizza cravings. If that’s hard to believe, then test it out with your closest friends during Greenwich’s World Pizza Day celebration this coming February 9! 


Greenwich, the number one pizza and pasta brand in the country, will take Php 100 off on every barkada size Hawaiian Overload pizza delivery order made on February 9, Sunday, between 10am to 4pm. Have a taste of summer as early as February this #GreenwichWorldPizzaDay by ordering exclusively through www.greenwichdelivery.com, #5-55-55 hotline or via SMS. 
Topped with sweet pineapples, melt-in-your-mouth cheese, savory ham, bacon bits and fresh green bell peppers, the Hawaiian Overload pizza has a savory-sweet summery taste that everyone can enjoy.  With the upcoming promo, you can truly eat more of the best-selling Hawaiian Overload and check out your and your kabarkadas’ pizza personality!  
1.     The Folder. A Folder is your kabarkada who folds a pizza slice lengthwise, so it fits exactly into one’s mouth. A perfectionist to the core, he or she meticulously calculates all decisions, whether life-changing or routine, to ensure that everything’s in order which is like the way he munches on pizza. The Folder carefully checks that all the toppings are neatly tucked in so that no ingredient, from the sweet pineapples to the savory ham, will fall outside when he/she takes a mouthful bite. 

2.     The Doughboy. Also known as Breadwinners, this kabarkada nibbles on the outer pizza crust first towards the tip. Intelligent and unique, this individual doesn’t care what other people think or do (which is not eating the crust), as long as his/her pizza cravings are satisfied. This kabarkada is rare and prefers to stand out because he knows that the crust makes all the difference in a pizza – particularly if it’s freshly-made daily like Greenwich’s.

3.     The Topper. This kabarkada eats his/her favorite toppings first before devouring the rest of the pizza. Self-assured and confident, he/she knows what he wants and wastes no time getting it, which is why this friend plucks out and eats the savory meat and sweet pineapple off the pinya-sweet and pinya-sarap Hawaiian Overload first – before anything else. The Topper is decisive down to the crust.

4.     The Untouchable. There’s only one way Untouchables eat pizza – and that’s with a knife and a fork. Refined and sophisticated, these people appreciate the finer things in life. This kabarkada prefers things that are consistent with great quality, which is why Greenwich is on his or her speed dial! The Untouchable just can’t wait to grab his or her own box of the discounted barkada size Hawaiian Overload pizza this coming World Pizza Day on February 9, from 10 AM to 4 PM (hotline, website and SMS delivery transactions only, for up to 4 barkada size Hawaiian Overload orders per transaction).

Treat the entire barkada to a Pinya-Sweet and Pinya-Sarap experience! Order boxes of Hawaiian Overload for everyone in the barkada via delivery exclusively through www.greenwichdelivery.com or call #5-55-55 for a truly crave-worthy #GreenwichWorldPizzaDay!

6 eyeliner styles for every woman


A trusty eyeliner is part of every girl’s makeup staples. With a simple glide and proper techniques, you will surely rock this makeup style. Below are eyeliner methods perfect for every eye shape so you can effortlessly slay your M.O.T.D (Makeup Of The Day).



The Careline Graph Ink eyeliner is one of the best in the market with consecutive recognitions, the Best Liquid Eyeliner at Cosmo Beauty Awards 2018, Metro Beauty Awards 2018, and Cosmo Beauty Awards 2019. 



Natural 
Nothing beats the classic. Highly ideal for any eye shape, the natural eyeliner style is probably one of the easiest to make. Start by drawing a thin line on both ends of your eyelids. Then draw another, this time thicker, lines from the middle of your eyelids outwards to create wings. 



Doll Eyes
The doll eyes makeup technique is perfect for women with round eyes. Slay this style by drawing a simple cat eye from the inner corner of your eyes, outwards. Then, to create a more dazzling eye makeup, add glittery eyeshadow and use lash extensions both for your upper and lower eyelashes. Finish the look with preferably brown contact lenses. 


Thick
Another technique that is ideal for those with monolids is the thick eyeliner which aims to define the outer corners of the eyes. Starting with thick lines on the inner corners, gradually add more volume from the middle of the upper lash line to the wings. 



Floating Eyeliner or Double Line
This makeup technique has a lot of variations but is most ideal for girls with hooded eyes. Accentuate your eyes even more by going extra on your typical cat eye. To achieve this look, draw a thin line from your wing which extends up to your inner crease to create an illusion of bigger lids. Finish of the look with a swoosh of mascara.


Artsy or Cute
For a funky and stylish technique that would most definitely suit any eye shape, try the artsy eyeliner. Simply draw a heart shape on top of your eyebrow down to your cheekbone. This technique will surely bring your eye makeup game to another level and help steal the spotlight on your upcoming holiday gatherings.

An eyeliner is almost an essential in every makeup look and with these methods, you will no longer have to experiment what kind of eyeliner style would look best on you. Walk confidently in a sea of people and draw their attention to your eyes with Careline Graph Ink eyeliner – smudge-proof and waterproof eyeliner that features a long-lasting and water-based formula with high-precision felt-tip applicator for easy application.
