Garnier Affair to Remember :)

Last February 11, I was so delighted because Garnier Philippines invited me to their event. It's a small group-exclusive event that consist of Garnier Facebook fans & twitter fans as well together with the Garnier Team and the most awaited part is, Garnier advocate Ms. Georgina Wilson also dropped by! :) I feel so thankful and grateful that Mr. Niche invited me to this event. I wouldn't pass this affair! :) 

Me and my friend Jhoey Mauleon eagerly went to Robinson's Equitable tower where the said event took place. We were welcomed by gorgeous usherettes and after that we get to meet the Garnier team. We were also served with delicious buffet, I totally love their Mango crepe although after meeting Ms. Georgina Wilson in person, I felt stuffed already. :) She's really the perfect Ganier advocate. She's natural, down to eart and oh so pretty! :)Ms. Georgina Wilson also talked about a lot of important facts and details about how Garnier will make everyone's lives easier simply by just using Garnier. She said that during her high school days she also experienced that awkward moment when she needs to attend an event and suddenly the next morning, there's a big pimple in her face. Thanks to Ganier, we won't get to experience that anymore. Thanks to their new innovation that includes herbal ingredients that will totally TAKE CARE of your skin without any allergies. 

I've used Ganier products starting from their facial scrub and their Garnier night peeling cream and I totally love it. Based from experience it really works. I've also used the recently launched Garnier Pure Active line that includes facial scrub and pimple roll on and I can totally say I will forever stick to Garnier products. Their pimple roll on really works, I used it nights before since I have this huge pimple bump on my cheek and after using it, 3 nights after, the redness was gone and yes the pimple dried up :) Some of the important factors that causes pimples oiliness, stress, lack of sleep, dehydration and maybe, genetics. All of these already has a soultion with Garnier's Pure Active line that fights 6 SKIN PROBLEMS: 

1. Pimples
2. Whiteheads
3. Oiliness
4. Enlarged pores
5. Impurities
6. Unevenness

I learned a lot of things that day, even the fact that Garnier has been in the business for quite some time now..100 years! :) Thanks God for Garnier. :) If you want to know more about their amazing line of products, check out their official Facebook page -> https://www.facebook.com/takecaregarnier?sk=wall and via twitter @GanierPH Again, from the bottom of my gleeful heart, thank you Garnier for the amazing event and plus all the goodies that me and my friends are now using. More power and hopefully, I'll be invited again in your coming events :) 

Check out some of the cool pictures we had from the event! :) Cheers Ganier! :)

Here's the cool & fun video that we shared that day :)

The Vow - Movie Review

Summary: A car accident puts Paige (McAdams) in a coma, and when she wakes up with severe memory loss, her husband Leo (Tatum) works to win her heart again.

Leo: How do you look at the one you love and tell yourself it is time to walk away.

As you all probably already know, I'm OBSESSED with any romance story, especially anything written by Nicholas Sparks. Though this was not one of Sparks' creations, two of his previous actors (McAdams from The Notebook and Tatum from Dear John) came together to create a love story with his signature passion. 

Leo: Life's all about moments of impact, and how they change our lives forever. But what if one day you could no longer remember any of them?

Leo and Paige had such a perfect love in the beginning of the movie. They met, they dated, they fell hopeless and madly in love. So when Paige loses her memory of the last five years, the years she met Leo, they have to work to get that once in a lifetime love back. The only problem is Paige still thinks she's engaged to her ex-fiance (Scott Speedman - from Underworld & Felicity "Ben") and living a wonderful, classy life as a law student. Leo loves Paige with all his heart, but how does he make the love of his life fall in love with him all over again? 

Paige: I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness, to have the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed, and to share the silence when they are not, to agree to disagree about red velvet cake, to live within the warmth of your heart, and always call it home.

This movie is filled with so much emotion but there seems to be something missing. The movie had you rooting for Leo the entire time and although there were not enough twists in the plot to keep you on your toes. It's not the typical perfect love story; there are so many ups and downs in the relationship that it's impossible not to have some sort of reaction to it. Although someone told me that since it was based from a true story, it was much better when you get to read it via Reader's Digest. :) I'm going to look for that issue :)

Some events in the movie annoyed me and I wasn't too big of a fan of how everything ended, but the entire journey of the story was impossible not to life. Rachel McAdams is just gorgeous, she can be paired to anyone and you'll just smile watching her and Channing Tatum is cute, I'm also imagining Ryan Gosling foe the role. If your in the mood for a love story that's perfect yet so unperfect at the same time, check out this movie. And watching Channing Tatum for a full two hours (and I mean REALLY seeing Channing Tatum) doesn't hurt either. Do you think if I went and got hit by a car, I'd wake up to have Channing Tatum as my husband? Hmmm, I'd say it's worth a shot ;)
