What's Inside My First Aid Pouch In School

I blogged about miss going back to school. I sometimes wish I never had to grow up and graduate levels so I get to be pampered by my parents to the core. It's funny how my parents (both of traditional Chinese heritage) would freak out every time I leave home without my lunch and my first aid pouch!

My parents started to routinely make me bring a small pouch bag of first aid kit when I was in high school. I didn't like it in the beginning but eventually, i realized how necessary it was for kids. My best friend in school at one time had a headache prior to an exam and good thing I have my kit with me so I was able to give her a medicine. A P.E. classmate got a cut and I gave him a bandage. Another classmate got her menstrual period and I gave her immediately a sanitary napkin. Although I never really got to use much of my kit's content, but I sort of became a class nurse for bringing first aid stuff. I was proud of being remembered more first than the school nurse. Ah well, my parents had to do the weekly refill of course, especially on the rubbing alcohol. Ha ha those were the days that just to have clean hands, I need to carry a big bottle of rubbing alcohol with me!

College was the same except for some great changes. I got a Burberry overnight pouch as a gift from my parents and it all contained my first aid kit this time with the contents got smaller and more handy. Time evolved!

If you are in school, it would be good if you bring with you a first aid kit for high school and college as you never know when you or someone you know will need its' contents. If you are parents, I would start thinking of packing for your son or daughter a first aid kit. A good kit of supplies is a great school gift. Packing the basics with information on how to use the supplies is cool!

Remembering my teen to college days, these are the most essential for me:

Adhesive bandages in all sizes
Non-stick gauze to cover larger wounds
Adhesive tape to help secure the gauze
An Antibiotic Ointment to prevent infections in a wound or minor burn
Elastic Bandage to wrap and provide compression for sprains and strains
Ice Pack for when an injury first occurs
Acetaminophen - great for headaches and pains
Ibuprofen - also great for headaches and pain from inflammation or swelling
Diphenhydramine - for itchy bug bites and allergies like Benadryl
Cough drops / sore throat lozenges - great to soothe minor throat pain like Strepsils
Tweezers for removing splinters
Thermometer
Eye wash - I recommend Eye-Mo still
Anti-bacteria Hand Spray - I recommend what I always carry with me - Hygienix - because it's handy and formulated to keep hands soft and smooth

Packing up a few first aid essentials is not embarrassing for teens! It is actually a great gift. My parent's made sure I bring it with me all the time because it serves as a reminder to always stay safe and a lesson in how to take care of problems while away from home. All that - in one kit! a

VITRESS Ambassadress Solenn Heussaff

I attended an event last June 15, 2011 without knowing that I will once again meet Solenn Heussaff. I found out that besides being a sought after print and commercial model, a fashion designer, a professional make-up artist, a painter, a recording artist of MCA Universal, an actress with Regal Entertainment and TV network GMA, she will add another feather to her cap.

On that day, an important event happened between Solenn and Splash Corporation. She signed a contract together with Ms. Joanna King ( brand manager, Vitress) , Ms. Pamela Sulit ( Marketing manager for hair category ), Solenn Heusaff ( Vitress Ambassadress), Mr. Marco Nieto ( VP for Marketing Splash Corp.), Ms. Nina Marcelo ( Account Manager GASSO ) and Ms. Nancy Dy ( Art Director GASSO ) to be the  VITRESS Ambassadress.

According to Joanna King, Vitress Brand Manager, "Solenn Heusaff is the perfect spokesperson for Vitress because her lifestyle shows the importance of caring for one's hair".

It’s understandable that having so many activities and endeavor, Solenn is always on the go. She has to wear different look in all her appearances- from sweet and shy to fabulously chic. There’s one thing that’s constant to Solenn,   every time I see her: her flowing darkly ravishing tresses with that intense shine.

I have four daughters who like her are always performing.  Always using curling irons or blow drying can do harm to their hair and I was afraid that this would cause damage to their tresses and mane. I asked Solenn for suggestions, and she smilingly answer that the best solution could be found in one of the variants of Vitress, VITRESS Heat Protect Cuticle Coat.

Solenn also shares that she has been using the product even before and like to use Vitress Cuticle Coat after discovering that it keeps her hair shiny, smooth and manageable. She adds that beautiful, healthy hair that radiates that intense shine is important for someone in her profession. When ever there’s a fashion show, a pictorial, taping or a film shoot, her hair need to be intensely shine as fast as possible and Vitness does the job instantly in every situation.

For those who are scared of heat styling but would love to try different hairstyles, use VITRESS HEAT PROTECT CUTICLE COAT. It protects hair from the harmful effects of frequent curling, ironing or blow-drying so you can wear all the hairstyles you want!

For dry, damaged hair, try VITRESS HAIR REPAIR CUTICLE COAT. It protects the hair from the bad effects of chemicals used in dyeing, perming, and other hair treatments.

VITRESS INSTANT RELAX CUTICLE COAT works best for those who have curly and wavy hair. This product is best for taming unruly hair and giving it a naturally straighter look.

VITRESS – For your next level of shine!

For personal care products, I see to it that I don’t frequently change from one brand to another. Once I discover the best product that fits me, I use it for years until I found a better one. Getting gorgeous is not easy and that’s what women strives for. I’m a regular customer of a popular and first ever straightening salon in our country. Spending thousands of pesos just to achieve a beautiful hair, who cares as long as I look and feel good. I usually go there twice a year because I am happy with their services. But aside from the regular shampoo and conditioner regimen, I’m still in search for products that will keep my “treated” hair soft and smooth. Now that I’ve found this new product it will help me maintain a straight, shiny hair I’ve always wanted and also protects it from chemicals used during treatments and straightening.

Few days ago, I received an invite and was surprised that it was about a product that will take hair to the next level of shine. I was interested to know about it so I went to the event held at Astoria Plaza. 

On June 15, Splash Corporation introduced the new Celebrity Endorser for VITRESS. She is a French-Filipino model and actress. A sought-after print and commercial model, a fashion designer, a professional make-up artist, a painter, singer and actress Ms. Solenn Heussaff. Solenn reveals that she now uses Vitress Hair Cuticle Coat after discovering that it keeps her hair shiny, smooth and more manageable.

SkinWhite Powerwhitening Face Cream Powder

There seemed to be tons of whitening products coming out in the market which is good for the customers. They have a wide variety to choose from. I, for one, likes trying out these products. Recently, there’s a new product that came out from SkinWhite. It’s a skin whitening product for the face. Since I’ve been using SkinWhite’s lotion for a long time now, I decided to give this one a try too.

The product is claimed to be 3-in-1 which intrigued me a bit. It is a whitening, a cream and a powder all at the same time. How can a cream become a powder too? But I tried out the product anyway. And it is really a cream that moisturizes your face and transforms into a powder in the end. Pretty cool I must say. But what I really like about the product is that the effect is long lasting. You don’t have to reapply as often as you need to if you’re just using loose powder. And more importantly, it hides blemishes and dark spots which is the very reason why I kept using the product.

The product also promises to dramatically whiten skin in just 7 days which I don’t really believe that it can. I have used a lot of products before that promised the same thing and most of it did not really came through. It does whiten your face though but not in as fast as 7 days. It may take weeks maybe as it did with me. But more than its whitening effect, I like the product more for being a powder.

The product is super affordable, only 0.22 cents for an 8 gram pouch of the product.

Skinwhite Whitening Hand & Body Lotion

As much as possible, I want to have a healthy and clear looking skin. I feel more comfortable and confident knowing that I have a good skin complexion. It boosts my self -confidence especially that I always meet people everyday. I like to look good and presentable in my workplace even without wearing some makeups. There are plenty of cosmetic products in the market to enhance our looks from make ups, shampoos, to lotions and more. Anyway, my review focuses on a good whitening lotion. This is Skinwhite Whitening Hand & Body Lotion - Classic. 

I started using this just last year. This is available in sachet and in bottle at a very affordable price. I purchased this for dark spots on my body such as my knees, elbows and even my inner thighs. This lotion contains Renewhite 3C which can whiten the skin in as early as 2 weeks. This is also enriched with Vitamin B5, B3 and E which moisturize the skin. It keeps the skin from getting flaky and dry.


 I always apply this lotion at night time to hydrate and at the same time whiten my skin. This is not good to apply in the morning or when you are outdoor since it does not have a sun protection. I like its scent. It is long lasting. This lotion has a creamy texture and easily absorbs on the skin. I never experienced any ill effects on my skin. I can see its good result. Now, I notice that I have even and whiter skin. My dark spots get a bit lighter than before. My final verdict, this is a good skin whitener and moisturizer rolled into one. I would highly recommend this to all women who are longing to have whiter skin.

Extract Hand and Body Lotion

I’m a man and im really seeking for the best lotion that satisfies me. Last month I tried this brand of lotion made by Splash Corporation at Canumay, Valenzuela City Philippine. It has the qualities that im seeking for a lotion.

This lotion is based on Papaya and Lemon flavor the smell of this lotion is very pleasant to my nose it really attracts women who I mingle with. This product is new here in the Philippines, it is released last year and now there is a new version of it with add-ons like Citrus White formula, Vitamin C and Sunscreen to effectively whiten skin. SPF level is 8 and approve by Dermatologist.

One of the best attribute of this lotion is it is water based lotion so it is not sticky after use and it dries faster. I regularly use this product before going to school, You just apply it after bathing and your good to go, many of my classmates thought im using a perfume I just laugh and say to them that its my lotion I don’t use perfume anymore because my lotion is already pleasing to smell.

I recommend to all men to try this lotion. It helps allot for men who don’t want to use lotion because of the stickiness.

Splash Control Hair Polish

I love curling my hair. But the problem is my hair doesn’t always hold it for too long. An hour would pass and the curls in my hair would be gone. It’s really disappointing, especially if I want to look presentable with my friends when we’re out or when we have presentation and plays in our school.

During my spare time, I would go to the mall with my friend. We usually head to Watsons to find new cosmetic products that are affordable. That time, I was lurking their hair sprays and lotions area. My friend then pointed this product: Splash Control Hair Polish. She then told me to buy since it was affordable and that I didn’t want to buy the pricey bottles of hairsprays. At first, I was skeptical because it was just a hair polish and that it would never hold my curls for too long. After much prodding, I then gave in to her suggestion and bought a bottle. I tried the product about a week after the purchase because I need to look pretty for a date.

After curling my hair, I placed a medium-sized amount on my palm (about the size of half a golf ball) and placed it on my curls. I didn’t run through my curls with my fingers. Instead, with my palms covered with the hair polish I scrunched up my hair, cupping the curls with my palms so that the curls wouldn’t lose their form. I then added a little more of the polish on the upper part of my hair so that it’s as glossy as my curls. What I like about this product (compared to hairsprays) is that it doesn’t make my hair stiff. With the Splash Conrol Hair Polish, my hair just looks natural (I would normally describe my hair with the product as a “damp hair in a cute and sexy kind of way.”)

Surprisingly, my curls that day stayed even when I was already at home. I really loved how it made my curls stay and how natural looking it looked on my hair. Since I only placed a small amount of the hair polish on my top hair, my face didn’t become too oily from the product. My curly hair looked really sleek and natural. My main problem with my hair (if it’s just as it is) is that it’s really dry and poofy. But with the hair polish, my hair looks really healthy and tamed. If you use the product and only use the ample amount of hair polish for your hair, it would look really great on your hair. At least, that was my experience with the product. I always buy this product and only use it to hold my curls. I don’t usually use it every day since I’m afraid that using it too much would make my scalp too oily and hence, make my face too oily. I guess the trick in using this product is that you don’t have to use it excessively. Just use whatever amount you think is right and for sure your locks would look great.

Vitress Hair Polish for Damaged Hair

I was able to try this product when I joined in a free hair coloring event in a mall, this comes for free when you join so I gladly tried it. It really is a good product for my hair. I have been using a lot of hair polish before, but I think Vitress is the best among all those that I have used before. It’s not sticky, it does not make your hair incredibly oily and it does not weight down your hair. It just coats the hair perfectly, making it look more healthier and smoother.

It also has a great smell, one like a shampoo but less stronger. I love putting it on, cause it really helps my long hair from tangles, specially at the end the hair. It comes in a small bottle, so I can bring it anywhere that I want, and fits compactly in my bag.

Another good thing about the product is that it does not promote dandruff in my scalp. Some products are so strong that dandruff would be forming in my scalp before I know it. read more...

What To Bring During Rainy Days

During rainy days do bring an umbrella everyday just to make sure that you dont get wet, it will be better to have your rain coat too, but nowadays it aint what we girls wanted to bring. We always want something that will always fit on their little fashionista bags. We girls usually bring their make up kits which almost took most of space inside their bags. Here are my recommendation for girls to bring during rainy weather.


SkinWhite Power Cream Powder - 20g and 8g packs
SkinWhite Power Whitening Lotion - 50ml, 100ml, 200ml and 350ml bottles
Hygienix - 60ml, 150ml, and 250ml


We girls do want to retouch every moment they feel that they need to. For that i recommend SkinWhite Power Cream Powder, it small, available in 20g and 8g packs which could easily fit in small bags.

In case you did not bring an umbrella and had to run through the rain, its good to have your SkinWhite Power Cream Powder, SkinWhite Power Whitening Lotion, and SkinWhite Power Whitening Face Solution. It can help you retouch your whole body with such little space taken from your bag.

Its never bad to be safe so its also good idea to bring Hygienix, just to be sure that you are clean and safe from germs from puddles you might have stepped or things you might have touched.
