Enchanteur Paris Introduces 4 New Fragrances

I admit, I have a weak spot to perfumes and fragrances. I believe it has a great effect on how everyone sees and remembers you.
Sort of my comfort blanket wrapped with warmth and love whenever I spray on my favorite scent. Helps me boost my self-confidence, minimizing stress levels.
I easily get 'bad scent headaches',too. Nauseous and all that whenever my nose traces something foul.
So when buying a sanitizer, for example, I make sure it has a light, citrusy scent, too. For the perfume, on the other hand, anything musky with hints of nature. My kids already know my signature scent and I'm pretty sure they'll recognize me easily from afar.

But days ago I discovered Enchanteur Paris, and I’ve decided that it can be my signature scent as well.

Why You Should Watch PETA’s ‘CARE DIVAS’ #ConversePHxCareDivas

I just adore going to theaters. Only last week, the Manila’s pioneer theater group, Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA), raised the curtains to present the re-run of the hit musical comedy –drama ‘Care Divas’ to kick-start its 50th season program.
I must say, it was an absolute triumph. When the show debuted in 2011, no one would have predicted the success it's achieved since.

I'm already a fan of this musical play -the narration, the songs, the dance, all the hard work, the applause. The hours of watching it, already was taken away from the world and placed inside of a different being .
And behind all the candid fun, ‘Care Divas’  was indeed brimming with valuable lessons.

Be Your Own Kind Of Beautiful With Dove

Writing this post feels a little like a beauty pageant candidate searching for the perfect words.
Why do I need to look beautiful? I ask this question in my mind a couple of times. Why do I have to look beautiful when I'm already a mother of 3?
I would leave the house trying hard not to have a care in the world if others will look better than me.
What's the point?
But in the back of my head, I thought, Is this really what motherhood turned me into the person I am today?

Movies for FEBRUARY 2017 :)

Yes! It's the month of February already.
Sure, some may want to just slag off the entire month (because of..I really don't know) but there's actually plenty of other good stuff going for it. Like, the upcoming movies perhaps?
I may be hooked to all movie downloading and streaming services, but there's nothing like the pleasure of seeing you're most-awaited film on the big screen with the family. Agree?
Speaking of most-awaited, I cannot wait for the part 2 of 50 Shades! I may have seen the teaser video for almost a hundred times already but there's really nothing like the real thing!
Heard rumors about having a lot of changes and I’m looking forward to see Jamie Dornan and his acting on this one.
There's also Enrique and Liza's movie to watch out for.
So, yeah.
What's not to love? This month is actually the best time to movie binge-watch since it's the shortest month of all. Then before you know it, it's already Summer. Blockbusters come out during Summer!
Enjoy :)
