It is a soap dispenser and alarm in one made by Safeguard to discuss some issue of germs in public restroom. It will trigger once a person leaves a toilet cubicle and will disarmed once the soap dispenser has been pressed.

 It was first introduced last October of 2013 during the Global Handwashing Day, as Safeguard creates soap alarm to encourage hand washing. It was first installed in Mc Donald's branches around Metro Manila. Schools and Offices. Alerted more than 10, 000 people to wash their hands after using the toilets. 

Safeguard Germ Alarm will soon be installed in more public restrooms around the country so that more Filipinos could make proper hand-washing a habit.

 It was said that public restrooms can contain more than 1,000 colony- forming units per milliliter of infection-causing bacteria. In a study in Michigan State University, researchers found that only 5% of people who used the toilet washed their hands while 33%  did not use soap and 10% are those who did not wash their hands.

 It is recommended that everyone should wash their hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, so that it can kill most of the germs. Learning proper hygiene and installing of hand washing among kids from an early age is very important. It can protect themselves from germs when in school, or in other places.

I was giving a change once again to review some beauty products. This time a Lip Balm and Eye Cream from Celeteque DermoScience. This is my first time to used their products and I'm pretty excited to try. Why? Because I think, I need it specially the Lip Balm for it was so cold  here in Baguio. I was experiencing chopped and dry lips these days.

 At first, I was hesitant but it's because it contains UVA/UVB filters which prevents UV radiation from damaging and rapidly aging my lip area. It has moisturizing oil that keeps my lips healthy, I can feel it even though I just used it for a couple of days. By the way, it also has Mulberry extract that helps brighten and lighten discolored lips.

While the eye tuck plus dark circles lightener with eyesery is effectively counters the formation of loose skin around the eyes which helps improved skin elasticity. I just used it for few days also and it was says that you can lightens the skin around the eyes and will give you a stress free look in just 4 weeks. So will see when I get to my 4th weeks.

It's because UNILAB send me a lot, I shared it to my friends and will get feedbacks to them once they have tried it. Will post another article here for their assessment in the next few weeks.

 The two products are proven safe and effective by an open clinical trial conducted among women aged 18-50 years old for the Soothing Lip Balm and for women aged 30-60 years old with puffy eye bags and dark under eye circles for the Eye Tuck Plus Darck Circles Lightener cream.

 You may visit Celeteque on their web site at http://www.celetequedermoscience.com for more information and like them on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/Celeteque?fref=ts.

When I am stress and need a little break from work, the first thing that pops into my mind is to have been well pampering day. This pays off my long week of working. I usually visit a spa twice a month to have massaged and once a month for a foot spa.

 I have tried the different kind of spa and massage center in Manila as well as here in Baguio for I was based right now. I need to set schedule for the pampering session by Asian Massage, Asian Salon and Asian Clinic which invited me to try their services. Apparently, there is a big bloggers' event that day which persuaded me to go to Manila. 


It was my first time in their spa center and when I get to their branch in Ortigas. The first thing I notice is the warm smile of their receptionist who asked me to change my footwear to their bubble slippers which you can see in the rack on the right side once you enter. I pick the color black, and so I waited in the lobby area where I was impressed in their purple elegant sofa with a standing glamorous Christmas tree on the side (I feel like a princess in the sofa). 

One of their personnel called me to follow her in their massage area and had my clothes change that they provided. I like the ambiance there, the calm music and the glittering stars in the ceiling in a dim light. When my attendant arrives, She asked me what kind of oil that I would like to have during the whole-body massage, and the choices are Peppermint with Eucalyptus, Floral Lavander, Lemon and Green Tea. 

When she started and giving me the warm up massage, there is a pressure on my back and my butt that gives me pain but after a while the warm of oil in her hands makes me feel more relaxed. She says, she will give me the combination of Shiatsu and Thai massage using Floral Lavander oil that I choose. It helps stimulates my blood flow and takes away my back pains due to the long drive from Baguio the night before. My indulgence doesn't end there. 


Next stuff, Asian Clinic skin and Slimming Center who is in the same vicinity but in different room. They give me their Basic Facial with no pricking using KB Vitamin C Peeling Gel Skin Whitening. They use only this brand in their clinic because they are also the distributor of KB Dermafirm product, which is made from Korea. 



 It was gently applied to my face after I wash my face without using any soap or cleanser. After 15 minutes of massaging it in my face and rinse it off, my face felt a little light and freshens my face. They also offer quick whitening bleach, mud mask, body sculpting services, and IPL in their clinic using the modern apparatus. 

 Wait, there's more...

I eventually tried their Asian Salon. Actually, I have choices of Manicure, Pedicure and Haircut with Shampoo and Blow dry. Since, my hair gets brittle and ends started to dry and usually don't have my manicure and pedicure in a salon. I choose the Haircut with Shampoo and Blow dry.Though, they did not shampoo my hair and its okay (actually, I took a bath before I came to their center and my hair is still wet).Their hairstylist blow dry my hair first and sectioned my hair before he started cutting it. After 20 minutes, it's done. 

I was like in a hurry that day because I also have some other appointments. After thanking all those guys in Asian Massage, Asian Clinic and Asian Salon  for giving their time and effort for letting me try and experienced their super special services that they have provided for me. I have flown to my other engagement right away (sorry for that, schedule is hectic that day). But I'm telling you guys, you are the best and thank you for the great service. 

 Anyway, if you really want to have a total pampering for yourself. I must say that this place is a one-stop center for your total relaxing and makeover. They are 24/7 open with a great facility and services. 

 They also offer home services for Asian massage, and by appointment for Asian Salon and Asian Clinic. You can even hold a spa party for your friends and family. Plus, if you would like to venture into a business.  Asian Massage is open for franchise. Visit their website at http://www.asianmassageph.com/ for more information.
