i know i've been slacking lately with my updates and failing miserably in getting back to you guys with your comments so to build momentum again, i'm giving away 3 sets of Nivea products for you to enjoy or share with your family or friends.


if some of you haven't read my recent post yet, i was on an out-of-the country trip with the sister and it was the longest flight we've experienced. 4 airports, 3 different planes and countless of hours breathing in recycled air left me and my skin fatigued and dehydrated. no amount of drinking water could easily ease the torment my skin went through. when we finally got back home, the bipolar weather wasn't of much help either. have you ever felt that its too hot a day to put on lotion but your skin's too dry not to use one? a few days in and i was complaining like a mad woman. the feeling was just unbearable! but like how all mothers are, my mom consoled me by handing over 2 large unopened packages posted and received during the time i was on vacation. who would have thought that the remedy to all my outbursts was just inside a medium-size Air21 pouch? definitely a package that packs a lot of punch.

Nivea Express Hydration Body Lotion moisturizes/hydrates without giving me that sticky after feeling. it's ultra-light consistency is remarkably beneficial given our hot weather and makes it easier for my skin to absorb it quickly and provide the needed hydration to last me the whole day. another added bonus would be its soothing, almost-sedating scent that lingers on mildly for hours after application. for someone whose nose is a tad too sensitive, the mildest product scent is highly favorable if i dont want to be sneezing the entire time. Express Hydration Body Lotion is like an elixir for the skin. its rich in moisture but light in consistency. definitely a must-have in every Filipina's vanity table!

to put an end to this almost endless blabbering, here's what Nivea has to offer and say:

The new ultra-light body lotion with sea minerals contains the innovative Hydra IQ active ingredient that has been developed specifically for the needs of normal to dry skin. it keeps the skin soft and supple, envelops it in the subtle scent of blue lotus and leaves and a refreshed feeling.
the one-of-a-kind formula with Hydra IQ makes body care a long-lasting intense experience. it provides a nonstop supply of moisture to the skin - longer than ever before. This is based on the worldwide exclusive Nobel Prize technology, which promotes optimum moisture supply and distribution from within - for over 24 hours. Nivea Express Hydration Body Lotion is not only effective for an extra-long time, but is also absorbed by the skin extraordinarily quickly and thus helps repair the eight signs of dry skin: dry, redness, rough, tight, flaky, dull, itchy and peeling. It has been developed with dermatologists and skin compatibility is clinically and dermatologically proven.

available in 75ml, 125ml, 250ml and 400ml pack sizes.

last saturday i had the privilege to witness the Maze Teen Model Search in front row seat. thanks to one of CFB's finest Eden Villarba of Chic In The Tropics and Maze Hipzone for the invite! the event started out with VIP cocktails and me and some of my CFB loves couldn't help but camwhore the entire time (photos to be posted in another post). it's true what Katt of One Frozen Margarita said in her recent post: "we bloggers dont talk. we just take photos of everything." True that, true that!

 as any model search/pageant would start, the contestants briefly introduced themselves wearing their I Love Maze statement shirts. like Gillian of By Details, i quite enjoyed the segment when the girls sashayed down the runway wearing quirky prints! now i am even more inspired to try the print on print trend! yes, the conventional dresser that is me still hasn't ventured into that arena yet haha!


 ayaw naman magpatalo ang boys! Plaids, anyone?

 Khaki and Denim overload!


 I gotta hand it to one of Cebu's budding fashion designer/stylist, Yves of Yves Identify for the fresh, hip and fun styling!


the amazing Eden and the equally talented Mark! superb hosting skills!
Don't you all just love Eden's gown? i love, love, looove the flattering cut and color! Of course, she's wearing Yves Identify!








My favorite part? the girls wearing their evening gowns and Shandar shoes!

THE WINNERS!

this is one affair i'd truly regret not attending had i missed it!
Congratulations to the whole Maze team for a successful event!
and congratulations to the new faces of Maze-Ayala Cebu too!

so to all my Cebuana (and cebuano) readers, for your one-stop, up to date and budget-friendly fashion fix, be sure to drop by Maze Hipzone at the Ayala Center Cebu! :))
