Vita Cubes 2Good Fun Day at Active Fun

Last Saturday, Vita Cubes treated mommies and kids to an afternoon of fun and activities at Active Fun BGC.  The event was dubbed as Vita Cubes 2Good Fun Day.  The program highlights several activities for kids while mommies were introduced (and reintroduced) to Vita Cubes.

My dear readers, do you know that Vita Cubes is a healthy candy?  I have blogged about VitaCubes last year.  It is a cube-shaped jelly candies that comes in different fruit flavors - apple, orange, grape, strawberry, and mango.  What moms would love about Vita Cubes is that aside from the delicious taste, it is fortified with essential vitamins and minerals that are vital to growing kids.  It contains Lysine, Zinc, Vitamin A, B, C, and E.  Both kids and mommies will enjoy Vita Cubes.

Going back to the event, kids were given a chance to play games during the program.  They also decorated cakes and were treated to a magic show.  It was more like a birthday party set up.  Kids get to enjoy the different activities prepared by Vita Cubes while mommies get to bond with each other. 

One of my favorite mommy blogger, Frances Sales of TopazHorizon.com was a there to tell other mommies how taking vitamins can be fun because of Vita Cubes.

After the program, kids were given a chance to play at Active Fun.  My little Neo enjoyed every bit of the program, but most especially the play part.  Thanks, Vita Cubes!

Press Release: The Mind Museum’s Science Circus

The Mind Museum’s Science Circus: Step Right Up! Is coming this October 28, 2016!  It is the latest travelling exhibition of The Mind Museum where the peculiar, amazing, and extraordinary experiences of our everyday life in the form of interactive exhibits will be showcased.

The Mind Museum’s Science Circus will be displayed for a limited run, until January 31, 2017 only.  The Science Circus aims to travel to provinces and cities around the country as part of The Mind Museum’s mission to bring science closer to the general public.

Tupperware from One Generation to Another

Tupperware is one brand I grew up to.  My mom buys a lot of Tupperware products.  She already passed some to me.  And my mom-in-law loves sending me Tupperware products as gifts.  So our household has a lot of Tupperware products. 

Look at the picture below.  I told my brother, who still lives with my mom and dad, to take a picture of my mom’s Tupperware collection.  He arranged some of my mom’s Tupperware in his car hood and took the photo below. He put it in his car hood to signify that “Tupperware products is always included in our outings”.

My mom loves Tupperware ever since because of its durability.  Tupperware products are so durable that even though you accidentally dropped it, it won’t break.  And behold, once it’s broken, Tupperware will replace it.  Yes, I remember that.  My mom will send back the broken Tupperware product, and Tupperware will replace it with a new product.

But that’s not the highlight of my Tupperstory.  My Tupperstory revolves in this Tuppertoys below.

These Tuppertoys were a gift to my little brother when he was young.  My little brother is no longer little now.  He’s already 21 years old, and these Tuppertoys were a gift to him when he was still a toddler. 

These Dino Tuppertoys were made to be durable that little kids can throw it and it won’t break.  It was also made with detachable pieces in bright colors to help little kids in their motor-skills and eye-and-hand coordination while arranging the pieces. 

Because my little brother is no longer little and these Tuppertoys are still good as new, guess who owns it now?

Neo is now the proud owner of Tito’s old but sturdy Dino Tuppertoys! J

Yes, a Tupperware product that has been passed from one generation to another. J #TupperwareBrands50th

Get Cash and Rewards from SnapCart

Last week, I was introduced to an app many mommies and homemakers will love – SnapCart.  SnapCart is Asia’s first real-time shopper engagement app that allows brands to connect with their customers.  It launched last August 2016 in the Philippines and has been downloaded for more than 20,000 times. 

How Does SnapCart Works?

·         Download the app through Google Play.

·         Do your shopping.

·         Upload your receipts in SnapCart App.

·         Wait for the rewards and cashbacks.  (PS: I earned Php24 from 3 grocery receipts!  Way more than my regular rewards points). 

What Receipts Can I Upload?

Grocery and other retail stores such as pharmacy, health, and beauty stores’ receipts are eligible for upload.  Soon, restaurants, gasoline, electronics, and other commodities’ receipt will be included as well.

What Do SnapCart Do With My Receipt?

On SnapCart’s end, all receipts’ data is compiled into the company’s data platform, which is use to provide clients (brands) reports on offline consumer spending and shopping habits.  This is a breakthrough in the traditional way of conducting research through answering surveys, and will help obtain deeper analysis and insights about shoppers.

Are There Other Ways To Enjoy SnapCart?

SnapCart has added a new game called Snaptastic, an in-app bonus game feature where users can accumulate coins just by filling up surveys, taking selfies with products, watching videos, and guessing mystery products.  The coins can be used to increase the chances of getting cash, and other surprises from SnapCart’s partner brands.

SnapCart is available to Android users through Google Play Store.

Product Review: Tupperware’s Kids Plus

Tupperware is one brand I grew up to.  My mom has a lot of Tupperware products.  This is mostly Tupperware containers that she loves and she swears by the products’ durability.   Along the years, Tupperware has innovate into several products not just food containers and kitchen wares.  One of these products is their Kids Plus line.

Moms like me are very careful in choosing the products we use for our kids.  I am one lucky mom because Neo’s skin is not too sensitive, but still I make sure that all products applied to him are gentle so it won’t affect his skin’s moisture balance.   So we were lucky that Tupperware sent over various products from their Kids Plus line for Neo to try.

We started the day by using Kids Plus Shampoo and Kids Plus Bath.   Both products smell good and are gentle to the skin and hair.  There is no need to apply a generous amount of Kids Plus Shampoo to the hair as the product is very bubbly.  Kids Plus Shampoo has Puricare and Cetiol that gives protective layer to your kids hair while moisturizing it.  Kids Plus Bath has Plantapon Skin Cleanser that gently cleans and removes dirt in your kids skin.

After taking a bath, we would apply Kids Plus Powder to Neo’s back, apply Kids Plus Lotion to his arms and legs, then after his all dressed up, Kids Plus Cologne is given  to him for a perfect before-going-to-school routine.   Kids Plus Powder has Allantoin that helps prevent dryness of skin, while Kids Plus Lotion has Nectapure that helps lock in 24hour moisture.  Kids Plus Cologne has Hydraplus formula to make sure freshness is and fragrance stays for 3 hours.

Neo enjoys using Kids Plus products and would even ask us (his Papa, me, and Ate Espie) to smell him after his ritual (bathing, shampooing, applying powder, lotion, and cologne).  He would say: “Ang bango ko po, ‘no?”  (I smell good, right?)

He smells so good before going to school.  Thanks to Tupperware Kids Plus. 

What I like about Kids Plus aside from the good smell (which is not very overpowering) is that Kids Plus is hypoallergenic.  Your kids’ skin will not react negatively as it is gentle on their skin. 

Tupperware also has Baby Care Plus products perfect for babies and Mom Plus products for mommies too.

My Happy Online Shopping at BeautyMNL

I love online shopping!  Why?  This is because online shopping gives me the joy of shopping times two.  First, during browsing stuff I get the joy of shopping.  Second, the joy and excitement the moment I receive the products I shopped online.  I am a happy shopper two times!

What I also like about online shopping is I get to compare prices just by browsing.  It saves me a lot of time.  As a mom, time saved means so much. 

I have shopped to several online shops – most gave me a very rewarding experience, some don’t.  Whenever I get a good experience, I make sure to rave about it.  Just recently, I was introduced to BeautyMNL.  A very nice online shop for women’s needs. 

BeautyMNL has a very classy online site.  Not cluttered and really organized.  If you need a specific product, you just have to go to the organized tab.  They also offer various brands to choose from.  And if you’re like me who want to compare prices and promos, BeautyMNL offers a lot of discounted items.  

I shopped at BeautyMNL just last week.  I bought items that I use on a daily basis such as Pantene 3M Conditioner, Olay Body Wash, and Celeteque Facial Wash.  And since I saw some items that are new to me but of quality brands that are on sale like Loreal Micellar Water, Bath Junkies Soap, and Tresemme Shampoo and Conditioner, I bought them too J #SaleAlert

What made me happier about BeautyMNL aside from my shopping experience?

1)    I get to choose from a lot of payment options during check out.

2)    Very minimal shipping fee.  I paid Php50 for Metro Manila delivery.  You can even waive the shipping fee if you reached a certain amount of purchase.

3)    Updates through email and text for delivery of orders.  The BeautyMNL Rider sent a very professional text message not a jejemon one.

4)    Less than 24 hour delivery in Metro Manila.

5)    Freebies! J

Yes, I get freebies because I shopped at BeautyMNL.  

Olay 90g bar, Black and Beauty Shampoo Sachet, and Bath Junkies love potion.

BeautyMNL made me a very happy online shopper.  J

PS: BeautyMNL is having a monthly #selfieMNL contest where you can win a Printser polaroid of your pretty face and a Php200 BeautyMNL GC.  Check out the details of the contest here.

NANKID’s My First Benz Promo Launch

September 15 marked the launch of NANKID’s My First Benz Promo.  Little kids, and their moms in tow, were invited to experience driving the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster Electric Toy Cars.  My little Neo was fortunate to be included in the invite.

The little boy was so excited that I have to take a leave from work just so he can experience driving a Mercedes-Benz J 

The event started at 2PM.  Several activities were in-store for Moms and Kids.  After registration, Neo was given a chance to win a prize at this game (not sure what it’s called). 

We then went to the photo booth area.

And then Neo had a customized plate.  (I am still persuading the hubby to put it in his car, to no avail.)

Foods were served during the event.  Nescafe and Pinkberry were also there and they served blended beverage and yogurts to guests too. 

Program started at 3PM.  Nestle presented NANKID Optipro Four and NANKID Optipro HW Four to guests (Moms mostly).  NANKID is the only preschool milk with optimized protein, lower quantity, high quality milk protein that provides age appropriate weight gain and optimal development.  NESTLE’s state of the art and exclusive technology make NANKID the very first in their class.

During the program, kids were not at all bored since NANKID set up an area where kids can play on electric cars and bikes.

One happy kid. J

At the end of the program, one little boy was lucky to be the first one to own the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster Electric Toy Car! Wow!  Then, little kids were given a chance to test drive the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster Electric Toy Car.  Neo had a great time!
