The holidays are all about sharing love in different ways — and that includes gift-giving. Have you already thought of what gift to give to people on your Christmas shopping list? 

Thinking about a unique gift for your mom, sister, female co-worker, or your girl bessy is harder than it seems. Do you agree? You have to consider their preferences — you need to find a quality item that they would love and at the same time suits your budget.

That’s where Tupperware Brands Philippines (TWB) comes in! Yes! The global direct seller of innovative, premium kitchen, home, beauty and personal care products has made it easier for you to think of a gift set!

Trying my luck for a fragrant prize here at the Baby Care Station 

The perfect holiday presents for the awesome ladies you know were unveiled earlier at Tupperware Brands Philippines Beauty & Baby Bloggers Party at Blue leaf Filipinas. I was blessed to participate in the event. Personally, I enjoyed interacting with fellow bloggers during the challenge activities as much as discovering products on each station!

Here are 4 awesome gifts for every woman on your Christmas shopping list from Tupperware Brands Philippines:

1. More Than Milk Almond Latte

Who wouldn’t appreciate a bath gift set with the nourishing goodness of almond milk and the revitalizing energy of coffee for a healthy glowing, moisturized skin? No one!

More Than Milk Almond Latte is formulated with:

  • Coffee extract to help restore skin vitality for a nourished healthy glow
  • Almond milk proteins to soothe irritated skin and lock in moisture, leaving it soft and supple. Ideal for dry, sensitive skin.

Items:


 a. Body Wash 250 ml PHP 249.00

b. Body Lotion 250 ml PHP 219.00

c. Body Soap 90 g PHP 99.00

BUY SET (1 Body Lotion, 1 Body Soap): PHP289.00 (you’ll also get a free gift bag)

What I recommend: Almond Body Wash

Basically, I love the set but if I could choose one, I’d pick the Almond Body Wash because I really like its relaxing smell when I take a shower. Also, I feel my skin is soft after use. It fairly moisturizes.

2. Colour Collection Dual-Ended Lipstick

Is your gal pal naughty? Nice? Or both? Colour Collection All Day Wear Naughty and Nice Dual-Ended Lipstick (4 g + 6 mL) gives both looks with one versatile dual-ended lipstick which has a beautiful soft shade in velvety finish for the day and a bolder shade in liquid matte lipstick at night.

Shades:


 a. Nude Necessities – PHP 349.00

b. Ravishing Reds – PHP 349.00

c. Playful Pinks – PHP 349.00

d. Bold Berries – PHP 349.00

What I recommend: Nude Necessities

Just because I got darker skin now from all the previous beach getaways, I feel “nude” lippies are safe for my look. But all other shades are worth trying especially the Bold Berries and Ravishing Red! Love that these lippies have both matte and glossy finish. You can wear the lighter shade during day time and the bolder, more sophisticated one during the night!

3. Kids Plus+ P.L.A.Y.

If the woman you are gifting has kids or toddlers, Baby Care of TWB is best for them.  The kids+ PLAY collection is for ages 3-11 years. These fun, collectible scents bring out kids’ personalities. Not only that the scent is good for their ages, the formula is also pH-balanced, hypoallergenic, and  dermatologist-tested!

What I recommend: Young


 I like the scent of this refreshing cologne the best!


4. My Scent Floral Gift Sets

My Scent Floral Gift Sets light and delicate fragrances open with fresh, sweet lilies and uplifting notes of freshly-picked roses with a light hint of musk undertones to keep you warm and sweet. For ladies who like the relaxing floral scents, choose from the mist or lotion. I rcommend both!

Selections:


 a. Sweet Lily – PHP 279.00 / set

b. Rose – PHP 279.00 / set

What I recommend: Rose

I swear this scent is amazing! The mist and the lotion are both must-haves! So I recommend you get the set!

As an initiative to offer commuters reliable, safe, and comfortable mode of transport, the Department of Transportation (DOTr) has partnered with bus companies and operators to launch Premium P2P (or point to point) bus service.

P2P Bus Service is a transport system that takes passengers from one point to another point (or terminal) non-stop. Unlike other commercial buses which have several stops to pick-up and drop-off passengers, P2P Buses only stop on their point of destination.

3D/2N Stay at La Carmela De Boracay

My 3 days and 2 nights stay at La Carmela de Boracay was far better than I expected. 

scene in the beachfront

To tell the truth, I anticipated the worst from this beachfront hotel mainly because of overwhelming mediocre to poor reviews online. Dismayed travelers claim that the rooms are old and poorly maintained, staff are unaccommodating and food aren’t nice. 

Well, I must say there’s nothing particularly outstanding about the hotel amenities/facilities, the food or the rooms where I and my friends stayed at. In fact, the air conditioner and television were pretty outmoded and the bathroom lacked some toiletries. Still I gave this hotel 10/10 rating at Tripadvisor as soon as I got back to Manila. 

Why?

La Carmela de Boracay provided me an ideal hotel stay by the beach by pacifying my significant concerns:

1. Good value for money


I spent most of my time outdoors. I remembered going back to the hotel around 2 in the morning and waking the next day for breakfast without any thought of lingering inside the room. 

The free breakfast was okay. Toasts, meat, eggs, juice, coffee…  though their meals were not superb, still it offered the benefit of filling in my stomach before I indulged myself into the day’s activity. It’s not like my normal stay at a hotel with my boyfriend so the affordable room rate (i.e. PHP 2,200 for a standard room on the main building) and the simple free breakfast worked well for me.

Ole White Beach!

2. Excellent Location


I tried to get more out of Boracay, took loads of photos and walked as far as I could. The hotel’s location was perfect—a few meters away from the white sand beach and a 5-minute tricycle ride to the back beach, it’s close to Talipapa and D’mall and to our Church!

3. Quality Hotel Facilities


The hotel has 2 swimming pools, ample washrooms and shower rooms, separate dining hall for guests, waiting lounge and lobby perfect for picture-taking, stylish alleys and landscape, cafeteria and restaurant with free internet connection. Though there’s no free wi-fi in our room, I enjoyed fast free wi-fi at the hotel restaurant (and even free coffee). I was able to recharge my laptop/ iphone from power outlets peeping from the wall behind our tables.

      4. Well-equipped room


We booked 2 standard rooms which consist of two double beds per room. 

The room where we stayed in was cozy. The beds were clean and comfortable with 2 soft pillows and warm thick blankets. The bathroom was clean. Hot shower was available. There was a mini-fridge inside the room as well as an outmoded AC and cable TV. There was a small balcony where which we hung our wet clothes. There’s no hair dryer but since I requested for it, they provided us free of charge!


Not ours

5. High customer service


I was stunned the moment we stepped out of Southwest service van. We were greeted cheerfully by the hotel’s security guards and the staff welcomed us with complimentary Raspberry drinks. Kudos to “Bogs Bunny”, Roxanne, the front desk officer and waiters during our stay. Nothing was too much trouble for any of them. They attended to all our needs and requests—drinking water, hot water, hair dryer, utensils, condiments, directions—kindly and enthusiastically.

Travel Tips

  • List the things you need to bring ahead so you’d have enough time to remember everything.
  • Bring medicine especially mefenamic acid and antibiotic. 
  • Bring snacks to munch on at night. I learned that they sell the 17-peso Nissin instant noodle for 43 pesos. 
  • Research from some online blog reviews where to stay, to eat, what to do to save time and energy. 
  • Know the acceptable rates for your outdoor activities so you won’t be taken advantage of nor be unfair toward the local business operators. 
  • Bring necessary toiletries (i.e. toothbrush and toothpaste). 
  • Bring an extension wire if 2 power outlets aren’t enough for you. 
  • Find beauty in all situations. Smile. Be grateful. Enjoy every moment of your awesome vacation!
