Hearing Loss

I am a sucker for easy skin care. I know that I'm already on my mid-30s era, but hey, I'm a very busy woman. I honestly don't have time on my plate to practice a 10 step skin care routine every single day. And well, simple skin care has always worked for me.

In comes a new local brand in the market, Fresh Theory. They are a local skincare and beauty brand, that uses safe, non-toxic ingredients in their products. It was also very timely that I learned about the brand because my daughter who is now 10 years old, have started her skincare journey. I am very particular with the products she is using, because for me, 10 is still very young. I don't want her to use products that have harsh and harmful chemicals that may irritate her skin or cause any clogging to her young skin. Fresh Theory products are paraben, fragrance and alcohol free, making it the best option for a her fresh skin.

hello, glass skin! starter kit P1,399.00

Let's dive in to the hello, glass skin! line, which is the first line of Fresh Theory. The line is formulated for all skin types. The active ingredients used are glycolic acid, cucumber extract, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and beta glucan. 

hello, glass skin! good AM routine P719.00

hello, glass skin! good PM routine P1,029.00

Now let me share with you how I use them.

hello, glass skin! foam wash P349.00

I use the foam wash in the morning. It's a  mild foam cleanser enriched with AHA and botanical antioxidants. It also has glycolic acid which helps lighten dark spots and blemishes. So it's perfect for ones that are trying to combat pimples and acne. and cucumber extract to soothe and hydrate skin. It's super mild and gentle on the skin and it foams up and lathers well making is super easy to use.

hey, sunshine! sunscreen P399.00

I have always been a fan of sunblocks/sunscreen. Ever since I could remember, that is one of the advises my mom gave to me. Do not forget sun protection. I like that this one is non-greasy and has SPF 50 PA+++ UVA/UVB. It is formulated with niacinamide to protect our skin from sun damage and beta glucan to prevent cell damage when we are exposed to the sun. It still has that "sunblock" scent but it's not overpowering, and it goes away pretty quickly. It has a decent "weight" to it, but I noticed that it's not very heavy on the skin. After it sets, I put on my makeup just like normal.

For night time:

hello, glass skin! cleansing bar P249.00

I have a little bit more time in the evenings, so I try to enjoy my baths more. I use the cleansing bar after removing my makeup (if I have any). It has glycolic acid which helps lighten dark spots and blemishes and is infused with cucumber extract which soothes and hydrates skin. 

There's a very mild exfoliation because of the glycolic acid. But honestly, I don't notice any redness or sensitivity to my skin. I also like this cleansing bar because I feel like it's more "matipid" to use. It's honestly a huge bar so it will last you a long time, especially if you know how to use it properly.

hello, glass skin! facial toner ₱349.00

This is one of my most favorites from the brand. It's an alcohol-free toner and hydrator in 1. I sometimes use it as a face mist. This product also has glycolic acid and it is also enriched with AHA and cucumber extract that helps reduces fine lines and wrinkles. One major player is witch hazel. A toner ingredient I've heard of before as it tightens pores and fights acne without any harsh effects on the skin.

What makes the facial toner special is that there is no alcohol, parabens and fragrance. I've used a bunch of toners and some actually stings the skin because of the alcohol in it. So if you're new to skin care or you want a more natural or a gentler product to use, this is definitely it!

hello, glass skin! moisturizer P459.00

As I age, I've really saw the difference of my skin. Age really does dry your skin, so moisturizing has become a priority. And this moisturizer did not disappoint! It contains niacinamide, beta-glucan, hyaluronic acid, and cucumber extract. Niacinamide is known to brighten and even out skin tone. Beta-glucan richly hydrates and boosts skin barrier and skin immunity. 

I like having a light moisturizer and a thicker consistency moisturizer on days I feel like my skin needs more nourishment. I tend to pick the hello, glass skin! moisturizer on a nightly basis because it gets absorbed by the skin immediately. It's the perfect consistency for our humid weather. (I sometimes use it as a daytime moisturizer too.) 


Here's how my skin looks with minimal makeup. Good skincare really speeds things up when you need to doll up. I don't use foundation, even powder foundations because I know my skin is in great shape. Just a simple concealing and color and off I go. My makeup also looks good because my skin is hydrated and I like to keep that way.



I've been using the hello! glass skin line for a month or so now and my skin is thanking me for it. Whether I put makeup on or I go bare face, I'm more confident that my skin doesn't look patchy and dull. I also like the fact that I can leave the products on my vanity and let my daughter, Robyn, use it too. We can share the products as I know that they are natural with no sulfates and parabens and dermatologist formulated for sensitive skin.

The modern layering of function features cutting-edge technologies and UNIQLO’s renowned HEATTECH innovation, keeping wearers warm, and in style, throughout the season.


“Our latest collection echoes our LifeWear philosophy. In the modern world where we see constant change in trends, LifeWear is UNIQLO’s dedication to bring quality products designed to last and grow with you through the evolution of your own personal styles and tastes,” said UNIQLO Philippines Chief Operating Officer Geraldine Sia.

UNIQLO showcased its collaboration collection with British fashion designer JW Anderson. Featuring casual yet sophisticated designs, the collection takes inspiration from Anderson’s British roots and traditional university life. Graphic checks and playful animal motifs match wardrobe essentials such as trench and duffle coats in the pursuit of perfection. 



Was able to catch the fashion show and see the pieces on the models.


UNIQLO collaboration collection with Ines De La Fressange is one to keep an eye on. It affirms the rich diversity of fashion’s origins and influences, with nature-inspired materials and colors of denim. The collection presents the colors chic indigo, denim blue, tweed brown, and burgundy, while the knit line-up features the vibrancy of magenta pink, Ines red, and mandarin orange.

As a mom of multiples that are now starting school, I also have entered my DIY mom era. It's a funny thing, to be honest; because I've always said I'm not that creative and I don't have any talent when it comes to DIYs. But alas, here we are. 

The twins attended summer school before their regular school started. It was a short one, maybe 3 weeks long? And for their culminating activity, they were asked to wear a superhero costume. Now, most of my friends know that I don't keep a lot of costumes. And I don't like buying as much as possible, because my kids don't wear costumes or themed outfit all the time. So I had to be smart and DIY it. I checked the twins' clothes to see what we can use.

Wonder Woman and Spiderman


Nia was Wonder Woman. I found a red blouse that she inherited from Ro. As for her bottoms, I initially wanted a skirt but she didn't have any plain blue skirts. Good thing their uniform's shorts is blue. The perfect blue I was looking for, so that's what I let her wear. Her shoes are Niko's. (They didn't fit him anymore, so pasa na kay Nia.) 

For her accessories, I would like to thank the internet. Haha! I just looked for printable accessories. And use an old yellow ribbon for her lasso.

She was so excited when I let her try it on for the first time. She didn't know who Wonder Woman was, so I had to show her photos so she'd be familiar with the character.


Niko, on the other hand, already had a Spiderman suit. It was a loaner from a friend of mine. It's actually a swimwear that he has already used once before. When the school said superhero, I immediately thought of this. Niko likes Spiderman a lot so this was perfect.

Since I wanted to dress him up a little more, I decided to print a spider and put it across his chest. And I made him a mask too. I chose a small eye mask instead of a full one, because let's face it, it's soooo hot and he might have a difficult time breathing if it's a full mask he's wearing. For his shoes, I just asked him to wear black shoes and got a blue/red pair of socks to complete the outfit.

Of course, Niko with his poses, internalizes his character very well. Hehe! Out of all my kids, he is the wackiest and the best at projection!


As for Robyn, before her school started, we needed new and updated id photos. The last time she was in school (face to face) was 3 years ago. Imagine that! So all her photos in her school files were so young. So we needed new photos to submit to her school. Being the DIY mom that I am, and a frugal girl at that- I decided to take her photos and have them printed myself. I could have printed it, but I didn't have photo paper and colored ink at that time. Hehe!

I added just a tiny bit of blush and lipstick just to give her color on her face. Pasensya na, the makeup artist in me is still there. Haha! She wanted to keep her eyeglasses on so I didn't do anything with her eyes. I think her photos turned out really nice. I liked how she smiled in the photos I took.


Well that is it for now, but I'm sure, since I've already stepped into this era, there will be more. :)
