Pampering is just one of the great gifts for ourselves most especially from the busy lives that we, moms, have. We're busy in the office, with the kids and as for me, in blogging. With these activities that I have, I need to relax and be pampered once in a while, at least to freshen up my thoughts and moods when I'm on the computer.
One of the growing establishments in the country today, Nails.Glow is making a great leap with their success. Nails.Glow is not new to me because I've already been to one of their Spa house in Don Antonio. I enjoyed my pampering day that time and to my surprise it was already three (3) years ago when I first had my experience with their Spa house. You can check out my blog about it here .


Nails.Glow not only offers luxurious yet easy-on-the-pocket treatments and services to both hands and feet, but also includes face and whole body services. According to the owner of the said Spa Mr Ferdie Opena and  Mrs. Ana Jay Opena, the look of their Spa's is luxurious and elegant but the prices of their treatments is for the "masses", an affordable yet quality treatments for their clientele.
Surprisingly, when I featured them here last 2012 they only have 17 branches and now on their 6th Anniversary Celebration they made a very huge announcement. Not only their branches number have grown but they were able to have Ms. Liza Soberano as their celebrity endorser also they will put up a branch outside the Philippines. A big congratulation to Nails.Glow people.

Liza Soberano is one of the country's most popular teen nowadays. Here is the answer of Mr. Ferdie Opena how and why they choose Liza Soberano as their Celebrity Endorser.




Having heard what the owner told the guest during the celebration, Liza Soberano explains here in the video.



Of course, to take effect of the partnership of NDG and Liza Soberano a contract signing is a must. Here is the video that welcoming Liza as part of NDG Family.  

Congratulations to Nails.Glow and to Mr and Mrs Opena, more branches to go and be the inspiration of others that success needs hard work to achieve. To know more about the success story of AJ Opena when she was featured in ABS CBN My Puhunan here .
 

My husband and I will definitely try again the Nails.Glow services specially now that they offer new treatment and relaxation. Hopefully, they will have Kiddie Spa so that Family bonding over spa is a great experience.

ABS-CBN, TFC hold Europe's biggest Filipino event with world-class Filipino and international British acts.

British music journalist Kate Mossman in her acclaimed BBC rockumentary, "Stadium Rock at 50" mentioned that "big concerts should be emotional, almost spiritual events which lift you beyond normal life for a few hours."
But for the 10,000 mostly Filipinos who saw the Philippines' longest-running variety show, ASAP 20 Live in London, last September 6 at The SSE Arena Wembley, a venue that has played host to the world's biggest acts - the likes of The Beatles, Rolling Stones, U2, Barbra Streisand, David Bowie, ABBA, The Cure, Madonna, Britney Spears and Beyonce - the experience was much more profound than fleeting escapism.

Consider this stirring and heartfelt thank you message to TFC from First Secretary and Consul Voltaire Mauricio of the Philippine Embassy in London: "It was my first time to watch a variety show live. It was my first time to see ASAP. It was my first time to set foot at Wembley. It was my first time to sit at the very front row of a big concert. It was my first time in the longest time to enjoy fully great performances from great artists up close. It was my first time to see my daughter truly enjoy and lighten up here in London. Again, thank you very much."
People say that the event was historic, and indeed it was, being the very first Filipino event to be held at The SSE Wembley Arena, among other firsts. But more importantly, to thousands of Filipinos not only in United Kingdom but throughout Europe, ASAP 20 Live in London was heroic: the effort on the part of ABS-CBN and The Filipino Channel (TFC) to mount it was monumental, but the audience response was epic as the more than 3-hour concert penetrated deep emotional spaces that unleashed unbridled joy, nostalgia, and national pride.
"You are world class" At the September 3 press conference for ASAP 20 Live in London held at the Hotel Novotel London Wembley which was livestreamed on TFC Live in U.K. and TFC.tv worldwide, Martin Nievera said, "Everyone is saying that what we are bringing is world-class entertainment. But don't forget that it's you, the Filipinos abroad, who are world-class that's why you're here and we're reaching out to you."

ABS-CBN Managing Director of Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) Kai V. Rodriguez recalled: "I've said months ago that everything that TFC in Europe would do this year would say without apologies that we Filipinos have arrived in Europe, what we are and offer are world-class, and that we have the numbers, the skills and the power to make a difference in European society. We believe in ourselves, we are proud of our ‘galing’ and we will let it shine wherever we are. ASAP 20 in London reminded us that we are one big, strong Filipino community that is at par with the best the world has to offer."

Nostalgia and Novelty Aside from igniting a fiery spirit of passionate patriotism among the audiences, ASAP 20 Live in London director Johnny Manahan, Business Unit Head Joyce Liquicia and their team delivered a spectacular display of lights and sounds and a powerhouse cavalcade of Filipino and international stars who provided the right mix of nostalgia and novelty in the song and dance numbers.
Some of the highlights of the long concert extravaganza which was taped as live for two ASAP 20 episodes, the first of which was livestreamed on ABS-CBN mobile in the Philippines, included the following segments: * The Best of Original Pilipino Music (OPM) All-Star Opening that saw the stars singing and dancing to classics like "Mga Kababayan", "Laki Sa Layaw", "Salamat" * Kapamilya Teleserye Theme Songs that included singing of hits like "Pangako Sa 'Yo" and "On The Wings of Love" * The energetic, patriotic Bamboo-led "Hoy, Pinoy Ako" anthem with Yeng Constantino, Aiza Seguerra, Richard Poon and KZ Tandingan * Dance Craze that had Robi Domingo, James Reid, Enchong Dee, John Pratts and Luis Manzano dancing the nae nae and Maja Salvador and Enrique Gil twerking * Billboard Hot 100 Hits by British artists which had top love teams Richard Gomez and Dawn Zulueta (CharDawn), Liza Soberano and Enrique Gil (LizQuen) and James Reid and Nadine Lustre (JaDine) singing Rick Astley's "Together Forever" on stage * ASAP Karaokey Challenge by Luis Manzano and Alex Gonzaga to Coco Martin * The Coco Martin-Maja Salvador "CocoJam" reunion * West End Medley by Gary Valenciano, Martin Nievera, Jed Madela, Lani Misalucha followed by Pinoy Pride in the West End segment with the Filipino cast of Miss Saigon who wowed the crowd with "Bui Doi", "I'd Give My Life For You" and "This Is The Hour" * British classical crossover vocal trio Blake singing Tagalog songs * Legendary British band Spandau Ballet bringing the house down with "True" * A true Heartthrobs segment with Piolo Pascual, Sam Milby and Paulo Avelino * Amazing, intricate dance number with KC Concepcion, Shaina Magdayao, Maja Salvador, Jessy Mendiola and Arci Munoz, and many, many more.
"Apart from the success of the event in terms of attendance, where Filipinos from all over Europe and even as far as New York came in droves, our most significant achievement was the engagement of the audience," said ABS-CBN Global COO Raffy Lopez. "To see Filipinos from all over the globe come together to celebrate their culture is a testament to TFC's ability to serve our kababayans abroad. To see them so happy and this involved is what counts. That's what's important to us."
What a way to celebrate the show's 20th year! Bravo to the all-Filipino cast of ASAP 20 Live in London: Aiza Seguerra, Alex Gonzaga, Angeline Quinto, Arci Munoz, Ariel Rivera, Bamboo, Coco Martin, Dawn Zulueta, Enchong Dee, Enrique Gil, Erik Santos, Gary Valenciano, Jake Cuenca, James Reid, Janella Salvador, Jed Madela, Jessy Mendiola, John Prats, Julia Barretto, KC Concepcion, KZ Tandingan, Lani Misalucha, Liza Soberano, Luis Manzano, Maja Salvador, Martin Nievera, Nadine Lustre, Paulo Avelino, Piolo Pascual, Rayver Cruz, Richard Gomez, Richard Poon, Robi Domingo, Sam Milby, Shaina Magdayao, Vina Morales, Yeng Constantino, and Zsa Zsa Padilla.

There are so many booths that you can choose from different needs for babies, lots of expectant mom were busy finding the best for their babies and overflowing surprises from Enfant.

Enfant prepared a program for those who attended their 20th Anniversary Celebration at one of the malls in Makati. The host gave an overview about Enfant's establishment here in the Philippines.
It was in 1995 when the first Enfant branch was opened in the country. Entrepreneurs Richard and Grace Lim discovered the brand in one of their trips to Thailand, where it was originally established in 1984. They saw the potential of Enfant, which, during that time, was one of the leading brands in Thailand that offered best quality products for babies.

Since then, Enfant has become the trusted name for baby apparels and toiletries in the country, following the footsteps of Enfant Thailand which twice won the Trusted Brand Award by the readers of The Readers Digest Magazine in 2009 and 2011. After 20 successful years, it has nearly a hundred branches in all leading malls and supermarkets nationwide.
Now, the country’s leading baby brand, Enfant, kicked off its 20th anniversary by holding a one-day exposition. The event, which featured the brand’s high quality products, was aimed at stressing the brand’s lead in the industry.
The free-for-all expo was packed with exciting surprises for the attendees, including big discounts on Enfant products like 20% to 70%, raffle draws of Enfant Gift sets and fun games for mommies and daddies.
Yes, my family really enjoyed the event specially when I and my hubby joined their games. Our very own daddy won the game, unfortunately yours truly did not make it to win but were still happy because the winners and the losers bagged an Enfant products which make my kids really happy.
“Parents want nothing but the best for their babies. We designed this event for the parents because we want to let them know the best quality products for their babies that are available in the market. Enfant offers a wide array of products perfect for their babies, especially for newbors,” said Raina Lim, chief operating officer of Enfant Philippines.
It was truly an amazing day for us. We did a bonding moment on a weekend after of whole week work in the office. Precious time with our kids really matters for me and my hubby. Thank you so much Enfant for the wonderful day and the lots of Enfant products.
