I have four kids, one demanding husband and a house to maintain.. how I keep my sanity? me time! specifically bath time. Nothing seems impossible after an hour at the bathroom.. laundry? dinner? assignments? I can do all that, but first, let me take a bath!
Yes, that’s how I see bathing.. a time that I can call mine and mine alone. It’s a treat that I always look forward too.. and my favorite full bath ritual (which happens once or twice a week) includes body scrub + hair conditioning. A total stress buster!
If there is one thing that I want every mom to have, that would be a “me time”. And for busy moms like me, bath time is the perfect opportunity to have that precious “me time”. That’s why I am very grateful that Watsons invited to take part in their newest campaign, Bath to Basics.
Together with beauty bloggers, yours truly, had an afternoon of indulgence, from spa party to shopping! (and I just have to say it again.. hindi naman ako beauty blogger> beautiful blogger lang, kaya thank you Watsons for seeing that haha) But before our spa party, we had a chance to hear some greats tips from Ms Olen Lim (professional image consultant) about bath regimens.
She also discussed bath organizing and one thing I learned from her: when in doubt, throw it out! It’s about toiletries sitting too long in the bathroom. If the smell is not good, throw it.
Bloggers were divided into two groups, one group were treated with body scrub while the other one with a massage, and I’m glad I’m part of the massage team. I do love scrub, but that, I can do on my own, specially with the many body scrub available at Watsons. Body massage is another thing, it’s not everyday that (not even once a month! haha) I get to experience a full body massage, so I welcomed it with open arms.
After a very relaxing massage experience at Neo Day Spa, we had a shopping challenge at Watson’s. Each blogger we’re given 1k GC to buy whatever we want but whoever buys the most Watsons Bath To Basics participating products will win a Neo Day Spa GC. Any shopper on her right mind would get the buy one take one at Watsons (BOTO are counted as two!) Here’s my cart:
Ang unti yata? I want to hoard the cheapest that I can find (like the body puff) to win the challenge, eh kaso, anong gagawin ko sa sandamakmak na body puff? So I just bought items that I really like (mostly body scrubs).
