What Touches Yours?

When my sister came home from Baguio after a month of being assigned there, she as beautiful skin. I teased her and asked if she has something done. According to her, Natural Skin Care and staying away from the sun was the only way to do it. She also ate healthier and she made sure to put on some sunblock.

Ever since my sister came home with tighter, even skin, I really got jealous. My skin is okay but I had lots of dark spots and some white heads (don’t you all just HATE those things?!). So anyway, I took time to moiturize and clean my face daily with a mild facial wash hoping that my efforts will pay off and I’ll not look 40 when I’ll turn forty.

Forget plastic surgery, only Natural Skin Care Products touches my skin.

I’ve read all about Organic Skin Care Products in Astaraskincare.com specializes in the creation of professional organic skin care products to meet all your needs. Whether you have oily, mature, dry skin, or are in need of a serious skin care products they have something for all. Even celebrities like Ashley Judd and Hugh Jackman swear by it.

Anyway, before my sister in law’s wedding I’ll have an all natural facial again. Then after that I’d just have to maintain using my moisturizer. Hopefully I’ll have beautiful skin like my sister’s soon.

So what touches your skin?

Family Reunion

My family is going to have a reunion for the New Year. Everyone (my mom’s side of the family) is going to spend their New Year here in Cebu.

The activities have been lined up and its pretty much going to be a jam-packed week. Hopefully, I can still have time to squeeze in some shopping. I still don’t have a dress for my sister-in-law’s wedding. My initial plan was to have something made, now with all the time constraints I just have to settle for something off the rack. Not to mention, I still don’t have shoes too!!! Then I also need to check on some bathroom vanities because the one we have now in our room’s CR is broken.

Anyway - I’m just too excited for our reunion. I wish the weather will cooperate with us so that we can push through with the Island hopping plans.

Christmas in the Beach

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!

Hope you all had a good one. For me we had a relaxing and fun Christmas. We spent the holiday in Sandugan, Larena Siquijor. That’s where their family’s beach house was so I really enjoyed lounging in the porch soaking up the sun. Ozzy had a grand time playing with his uncles and aunties and grandparents.

It was a perfect way to spend the holidays, good food, great company and the perfect setting. I loved the simplicity of the place - their beach house was made mostly of wood and bamboo. They had these simple but functional bamboo blinds that would shield us from the afternoon sun. Since Ozzy is not too fond of the the sand (still!) we still had to be extra patient for him to even consider walking in the sand. But when he did, he enjoyed taking a bath in the beach and playing in the sand.

All in all it was the perfect Christmas. I was with the people I loved the most.

How was yours? Xoxo

Happy Holidays in Advance!

..just a quick update.

We came home from our weekend “alone” time with hubby yesterday. That’s two whole days without the little boy. My mom and sister (who were in charge of the boy while I was gone) reported that he was in his best behavior when we were gone.

He slept soundly at night (thank God) and even though he would look for me he understood that I was coming back soon so he patiently waited.

Yipee - and I thought I would have to come home early because he would cry so much without me, I guess my baby is all grown up after all. Tomorrow were off to Siquijor to visit my hubby’s side of the family. We will be spending Christmas there so chances are I can’t go online much.

Weekend Getaway

Hubby and I are off to our weekend R&R at the Hilton Resort and Spa. Hopefully, Ozzy will be okay sleeping with his nanny tonight for the very first time ever.

I am a bit worried that he might wake up in the middle of the night screaming looking for me. Paranoid much? I guess that’s what happens if I’ve spent the last 2 and half years hurrying to go home from dinners and parties worried that my son can’t sleep properly without me there. Or is it the other way around!? I can’t sleep well NOT knowing how he is.

I think the latter.

Anywhoo…I’ve been scrambling to get things done in the office by 1030AM because we need to bring Ozzy to his class by 11AM. After lunch if there would no longer be pending tasks were can go ahead and enjoy the rest of the day alone. ^^

For now, I have some tech jobs to look into. Xoxo
