Robinsons Red Hot Sale Finds For Babies And Expecting Mommies!

I was invited to check out what Robinson’s Galleria has to offer for this year’s Robinsons Red Hot Sale…what’s the magic word? SALE! Well, of course, it’s a big factor that Robinson’s Galleria is our mall. Not OUR like we own that mall, it’s just that, Rob Galle is our most frequented mall (read here to know why we love Robinsons Galleria). So even though the said “checking out” event was on a weekend, I said yes (with the husband reminding me not to accept another event invite on weekends), haler, isang kembot lang ang Galleria no (mamimiss nya daw ako agad!).

Before that, I asked my friends from Mommy Pehpot Facebook Page what sale items they want me to check out:

Bed sheets
Make Up
Transformers Toys
Umbrella Stroller
Boutique for little girls
Clothes for boys
Gas Range
Shoes

Toys muna pwede? yan naman talaga ang pinunta ko sa Robinsons Galleria eh hihi

Watsons Bath To Basics

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).

Watsons Bath to Basics campaign aims to educate people about the importance of maintaining or boosting their bathing habits to achieve better health and skin. To support this campaign, Watsons is giving away FREE 750 ml Limited Edition Hand Soap if you buy any of the participating bath products worth 500 PhP

EXCLUSIVE FOR SM ADVANTAGE CARD member: If you buy 400 PhP worth of participating product, you can avail your free hand soap. This promo is also available in the SM Store Beauty Section.

Watsons has also the Bath To Basics Activation booths in the following malls to score great deals and offers:

SM Fairview (July 17-22)
Festival Mall (July 24- 29)
SM North EDSA (July 31- August 6)
SM Manila (August 14- 19)

So before I finish this post (because my banyo is already calling me), let me ask you, what are your bath routines? What bath products you can’t live without? Any bath regimen tips? Share it with us!
