Tag-lamig na, pero tag-init pa rin diaper ni baby? 5 Presko Ways to Keep Baby Cool

Sweaters, jackets, blankets, and socks – everyone is starting to bring out their colder weather essentials as the rain continues to pour and the wind continues to blow. But, we forget that not everything becomes cooler with the cool weather. Our baby’s diapers still trap kulob and init if it doesn’t use breathable materials, which can cause heat rash. That’s a big no-no for any parent!

Don’t worry, keep baby cool and comfy             

It’s a good thing that Pampers is ready for all seasons, rain or shine, so our precious little ones won’t have to be irritated by init or kulob that lead to rashes. Here are five ways that Pampers Aircon Pants can put our worries at ease: 

 

1.    Not just 10 thousand, but 10 million microholes

We want our baby’s diaper to keep the poo and pee inside, but not the heat that comes with it. Pampers Aircon Pants has 10 million microholes so air can flow from inside to outside, making baby feel as breezy as the weather outdoors!

 

2.    Snug fit that lets baby move

Pampers Aircon Pants not only improved its breathability, it also made sure baby can play, dance, crawl, and move with ease. A comfy and presko baby is a happy playmate!

 

3.    It’s 5 degrees cooler (how cool is that?)

We will never stop finding newer and better ways to protect our babies from all kinds of irritation, that’s why it’s great news that Pampers Aircon Pants is now 5 degrees cooler! It was already cool before, but it’s even more presko now. That means better play and rest for our babies from summer to ber months! 

 

4.    We won’t forget leakage protection

What’s a good diaper without leak protection? Even with all the added benefits of Pampers Aircon Pants, it doesn’t forget the most basic requirement of a trust-worthy diaper – protection from spills. We can worry less about “accidents” and focus more on enjoying presko moments with our babies. 

 

5.    Preskotection all-year round

Even if the weather changes, we can be sure that Pampers Aircon Pants won’t. It’s available from New Year’s Day to New Year’s Eve and for every special moment in between, so we can have only the best, most presko and comfy memories with our babies.

 

Keep your baby cool all day, every day

Our little ones grow up so fast, and we want them to protect them from init and kulob that lead to rashes for as long as we can, no matter the weather. Pampers Aircon Pants with its 10 million microholes for breathability and 5 degrees cooler experience can help us, one diaper at a time. 

 

Pampers Aircon Pants is available on Lazada, Shopee, and Facebook. Learn more about the presko and comfy benefits of Pampers Aircon Pants on our website.

 

 

 

Shopee Princess Alex Gonzaga's tried and tested tips on how she manages her time

Like many of us, Shopee Princess Alex Gonzaga also finds herself struggling to manage her time. After all, she isn’t just an actress and TV personality. She’s also a vlogger, business owner, and wife. With just 24 hours in a day, she handles tapings, business meetings, and more. 

“Dati medyo nahihirapan talaga ako to manage all my responsibilities. I wanted to pursue other passions, but I couldn’t because I didn’t have much time. Nakaka-frustrate because I wanted to spend more time with my family but I couldn’t,” she shares.

 

Throughout years of juggling several roles in both her public and private lives, Alex has managed to create her own personal guidelines for managing her time and prioritizing her responsibilities—and staying sane in the process! 

 

Here are a few tried-and-tested tips and tricks from the Shopee Princess: 

 

 

 

Tip #1: “Make sure malinis ang working space mo.”

One way to boost your productivity is to clear your head, so you can focus properly on your tasks for the day. And according to the Shopee Princess, a cluttered space clutters the mind! Organize your work station with these Storage Boxes. Label or color code each box for quick, easy access. 

 

 

Tip #2: “Plan your schedule for the day the night before. Alamin mo ang priorities mo. ”

 

 

It gets overwhelming when you’ve got a lot on your plate. Each night, sit down for a few minutes to plan your day with The Everyday Planner, which comes with monthly sheets. Learn how to deprioritize if your to-do list is more than you can handle. To help you save precious time, Alex adds, “Try not to browse social media until you’ve finished your tasks for the day.”

 

 

Tip #3: “Get up and go running para the brain gets up and running din!”

 

Feeling stuck? Alex recommends working out for a quick and effective endorphin boost. Spare a few minutes to go on a quick run or do some yoga to stimulate the mind. Throw on a Dri-Fit Shirt, which allows you to stay cool and dry throughout your workout. You’ll be able to tick that task off your to-do list in no time.

 

 

Tip #4: “Don’t forget to take care of your mind too.”

 

They say a happy mind boosts productivity, so don’t forget to find the time to unwind. Alex, for instance, says shopping and talking to her husband help her relax. She also surrounds herself with inspirational products, such as this QuiFit Water Bottle, to keep herself going throughout the day. Aside from helping her stay hydrated, it also comes with motivational messages and cute prints.

 

Alex concludes, “I love how Shopee has become my one-stop shop for all my productivity tools. Laking tulong sapag-manage ko ng time and responsibilities, plus ang dami talagang deals to help me save, lalo na kada-akinse!”

Shopee partners with Taguig LGU in their efforts to inoculate their citizens

Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, teams up with the local government unit (LGU) of Taguig City to provide care packages that can encourage more people to get vaccinated and to express gratitude towards frontliners diligently working at the center. 

Last July 28-30, Shopee rolled out its vaccination center support initiative in Western Bicutan National High School by giving food, water, and health kits from Shopee and its partner brands under Shopee Mall to 1,500 frontliners, staff, and the people getting vaccinated. These included snacks from Del Monte, Perfetti Van Melle, Dutchmill Soy, Monde Nissin, and Rebisco; water from Hope in a Bottle; health kits from Mighty Clean and Colgate; and industrial fans from Symphony.

Martin Yu, Director at Shopee Philippines, said, “Shopee is committed to contributing and positively impacting the community. We are proud to partner with the Taguig LGU in their efforts to inoculate their citizens and are grateful to our brand partners who generously lend us their support in serving the Filipinos. We want to play a part in meaningful initiatives such as this especially when the country is still battling the pandemic. We will continue to support the Filipinos and offer them the help that they need.” 

Cebu Pacific announces that its loyalty program GetGo is now Go Rewards

Cebu Pacific, the Philippines’ leading airline, announces that its loyalty program GetGo is now Go Rewards, the lifestyle and rewards program of the Gokongwei group. This gives everyJuan more ways to enjoy deals and benefits from its many partner brands. 

With this migration, GetGo points earned BEFORE January 1, 2020 are converted into Cebu Pacific Travel Fund. This virtual wallet may be used to purchase new flights and add-ons (and even taxes and fees) on the CEB website.  

Points earned from January 1, 2020 onwards are converted into Go Rewards points. One (1) Go Rewards point is equivalent to PHP1.00, and can be redeemed by the member for the flights with CEB or purchases in over 2,000 retail stores.  

GetGo members have been informed of their corresponding point conversions via registered email.

“We are excited to be part of this new and improved loyalty program where we are now able to offer more rewards and options for our customers,” said Candice Iyog, vice president for marketing and customer experience.  

Under Go Rewards, members can earn and redeem points from purchases in Robinsons Department Store, Robinsons Supermarket, The Marketplace, Shopwise, Southstar Drug, True Value, Daiso, Toys R Us, Mini Stop, Daiso Japan, No Brand, Caltex, and Handy Man, and many more.  Members can also enjoy exclusive deals and coupons that they can discover via the Go Rewards app.

Members with GetGo loyalty cards may exchange them for the new Go Rewards Classic card. Simply present the old GetGo card in any Robinsons Retail store, and immediately activate the card through the Go Rewards app to easily view your points. 

GetGo members with existing Go Rewards membership can conveniently merge both accounts through the Go Rewards app. 

On the other hand, GetGo members who are new to Go Rewards can merge their GetGo membership by downloading the Go Rewards app, selecting “Register”, and then linking their GetGo account. After doing so, the GetGo number will be deactivated, and the new Go Rewards number will be the membership account moving forward.

Careline shares this 4-step skincare routine to help you achieve a clear, glowing skin

Have you experienced buying a lot of skincare products hoping they'll give you a clear skin after using all of it? You actually don’t need a lot of products to care for your skin. In most cases, all you need to do is to commit to a regular skin care routine and use reliable basic products.  Step up your skin care routine by properly layering a few skincare products for better results. Layering is simply adding layers of skincare products in a specific order of application.

These layering steps ensure that your skin receives the full benefits of each product. Careline shares this 4-step skincare routine to help you achieve a clear, glowing skin.

Step 1: Cleansing. Before applying any skincare product, make sure your face is clean.  Careline Captain Cleanser helps remove excess sweat, dirt or make-up without stripping off moisture from your skin. It is also formulated with BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid) which reduces fine lines and wrinkles and improves the skin tone and texture.

Step 2: Toner.  Remove dirt and impurities from skin using Careline’s Fighting Toner. It aids in oil control and has chemical exfoliants that can treat breakouts. It is also formulated with AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid) that can help brighten your skin and reduce discoloration by encouraging the old, discolored skin cells to turn over. After applying, wait for five minutes until it dries so that the toner can work its magic to your skin!  

Step 3: Serums.  Serums are lightweight products whose active ingredients are quickly absorbed by the skin.  Careline’s Super Serum helps deal with acne and in lightening dark spots over time. It is formulated with Niacinamide which helps treat hyperpigmentation and regulate oil to minimize pores.

Step 4: Moisturize.  Yes, you still need to apply a moisturizer. Hydration is important for all skin types. Moisturizers are responsible for making your face look good and healthy as it helps lock in the products making their ingredients even more effective on you. Use Careline Wonder Moisturizer which contains PHA (Polyhydroxy Acid) to help hydrate and smoothen skin, while improving the skin’s surface strength.
