It was not a surprise when Philips chose Karylle Tatlonghari or Karylle or simply K to be it’s newest reviewer of Philips On the Go headphone products.

May I just say that I like Karylle though I am not exactly a fan who would go to great lengths just to see her in a show, not because I don’t want to but I simply don’t have the time. I like her because she seems to be a level-headed person. I like her because she is classy without trying hard. I like her because she is an achiever that teens today should find worth emulating.

Anyway…

Philips has Victoria who used to review their products for them. But ever since she and Nigel the Philips guy, got together Victoria had to stop doing the reviews so Philips has to find new personalities who will do what Victoria has been doing all along.

Here is a Nigel and Victoria video:

For the Philippines, Karylle was chosen to review Philips On the Go Headphones. And why not, being a singer and a performer she gets to listen to a lot of music.

And here is Karylle’s review of Philips SHL9300 headphones, shot in Europe:

During the press conference of which I was able to attend, Karylle said she personally like the Sports Actionfit earhook headset because these are sweat-proof, washable and have anti-bacterial caps.

Karylle is currently out of the country to shoot a musical show titled Kitchen Musical. She will be with Christian Bautista on the said show.

I’ve written in this post about Aging Gracefully and now I’m going to “face” these lines with Celeteque Advanced. Yep,we may not admit it but we all are looking for that fountain of youth that will make us stop the aging process, well, at least with how we look since we can’t be living forever.

Anyway, one of my favorite products, Celeteque, has a new line of beauty products: Celeteque Advanced.

Celeteque Anti-Wrinkle Facial Moisturizer (SRP PhP620.00), Celeteque Advanced Anti-Wrinkle Ultra-Hydrating Cleanser (Light Cleansing Oil) (SRP PhP369.00) and Celeteque Advanced Anti-Aging Power Serum Concentrated (SRP PhP 699.00).

Celeteque Anti-Wrinkle Facial Moisturizer is (also) good for sensitive skin because it is fragrance-free, dermatologist-tested and doesn’t clog the pores.

Celeteque Advanced Anti-Wrinkle Ultra-Hydrating Cleanser (Light Cleansing Oil) is good for cleaning the face and removing make-up. It’s dual vitamin regenerating complex increases the skin’s elasticity and moisture content. In just 6 weeks, skin firms up and strengthens while fine lines are reduced.

Celeteque Advanced Anti-Aging Power Serum Concentrated has power serum made up of Cytostimulin Lipopeptides and exotic fruits extracts. These provide strong anti-aging and anti-oxidant properties against DNA damage and smoothens the skin in as early as 1 week of usage.

I’ve run out of calling cards and I need to have some printed soon. I still have a few left of my old ones but since the blog url in those cards have changed from Filipino Mom Blog to Filipino Mom Bloggers, there should be new cards to go with it.

Calling cards, club flyers, business cards are important to have on hand, just in case a possible business plan is in the works.

Do you always carry calling cards with you?

I don’t know if the “Buy HGH” doctor’s order is acceptable to some people. There are some things that are quite difficult to accept regarding one’s age.

If there is a real fountain of youth, then perhaps people will be at each other’s neck to be able to get to it first.

Aging is inevitable.

Being a teacher dealing with young children (and several tweens), I have to feel young, have a know-how with what’s in and what’s hot. Sometimes it irritates me when people acknowledge me and say “opo” or call me “tita” or worse, “mommy” -> duh, hindi kita anak no?! LOL.

Ho do we age gracefully? Here are a few tips on aging gracefully:

• Have a positive outlook in life.
• Surround yourself with loved ones who will not just support you but will accept you and all your little flaws.
• Be physically fit.
• Eat healthy food.
• Be mentally alert by constantly learning new things and re-learning other skills you may have forgotten along the way.
• Take charge of your life by planning ahead.

There are times when I feel young and vibrant and full of new dreams to conquer. There are also times when I feel old and tired.But when I look at my family, I know there’s so much to live for and I want to live longer while I age gracefull, all for them.

Don’t you want to do that too?
