Georgina Loves Chicco!

Georgina Loves Chicco!

What does Georgina Wilson-Burnand and Chicco have in common? Love for babies! Because of this, they are now partners in bringing amazing baby gear to babies and  Filipino families. Georgina is known for being a top international model and influential style icon for women. She married hunky Brit hotelier Arthur Burnand last 2016 and they now have an adorable baby boy named Archie. She is a proud user and endorser of Chicco, the best-selling brand of baby gear that has garnered international awards.

Chicco is a proudly Italian brand of baby gear, they have been selling carriers, strollers, cribs, toys and so much more since 1958. Georgina has chosen Chicco for her son because their baby gear is easy to use and has passed safety regulations of numerous countries. Some of her favorites are the car seat, walker, mobile playpen and their line of baby clothing. You can check out all of these at the Richprime Global's website.

I was invited to witness Georgina and Archie be introduced as the newest brand ambassadors for Chicco last November 23, 2017, at the SM Mega Fashion Hall. The event was slated for 1-5 PM and saw numerous media partners and social media influencers in attendance. I was so lucky to win their Instagram contest and was one of those chosen to have a photo onstage with Georgina. They had a mini fashion show were celebrity moms displayed the various strollers Chicco has. There was also a panel discussion with Georgina, Liza Yao of RichPrime Global and Europlay Distributor Co. Inc. and Andrea Tosa of Chicco.

There are really a lot of great baby gear from Chicco and I am glad I attended the event. Mr. Tosa, the Chicco Area Manager for Asia, revealed that there will be a big production for Chicco's upcoming 60th anniversary so let's all stay tuned to their Facebook, Instagram, and website for more news about this. To buy your own Chicco stuff for your kids (hey it's Christmas season!), you can visit Baby Company or Richwell Club in person or shop online at the Kids Company website. I agree with Georgina that a child's safety is a precious gift so head out there and get your own car seats, strollers and walkers to ensure your little one's security.

Efficascent Relaxing Oil - A Spa in Your Pocket!

Efficascent Relaxing Oil - A Spa in Your Pocket!

Filipinos like their liniments, balms, and oils. I grew up in a household where there was always this little bottle of green liquid that the grown-ups would use at night when they got home. It smelled minty and strong and made my young eyes tear up. When I was older, I found out that my grandma and other family elders liked to use Efficascent Oil when they were tired, had a headache, a tummyache or plainly want a relaxing massage. Up to now, my family still uses this oil that's why I was so excited to learn that International Pharmaceuticals Inc will be launching a new version of this timeless classic.

The launch happened November 21, 2017, at the Manila House Private Members Club at two in the afternoon and hosted by Jude Bacalso. There were so many news personalities and social media influencers present to witness the unveiling of the Efficascent Relaxing Oil. The program started with an introduction to IPI by the Vice President of the Brand Management Division of International Pharmaceuticals, John Rey Villorente. Then Dr. Phillip Ledesma Ciocon, Ph.D., gave a very good talk about how to avoid stress the natural way. My take away from it is the following:

1. Choose to be happy
2. Rest before you get too tired
3. Do not allow anyone or anything to take God's peace away from your heart

The next part of the program had the brand ambassadors Paul Jake Castillo, Kaye Abad-Castillo and Micah Muñoz talk about how Efficascent Relaxing Oil helps in their daily lives. The ERO as they call it is made up of two of my favorite oils: Peppermint and Eucalyptus. They are two of the most powerful oils which help calm stressed nerves. Eucalyptus is a know expectorant while Peppermint has a cooling effect which relieves pain. The mix of these two oils creates a scent that makes the user feel like they are in a spa. Another great thing is that the scent is so soothing that it can calm down a person and give them a much-needed breathing space. That's why the hashtag #InstantPamparelax is perfect for the Efficascent Relaxing Oil.

You can use the Efficascent Relaxing Oil in two ways: topically on pulse points, or straight inhalation. There are two sizes as well, 3 mL and 6 mL, both with a metal roller ball head. It's perfect for people on the go and can fit even the small pocket of your jeans. John Rey Villorente further shares “We are a brand trusted by Filipino families for almost 60 years. Efficascent Oil will continue to fulfill the needs of our consumers, and our commitment to them remains the same – to provide relief to their physical pain from a hard day of work,” The Vice President for Sales of IPI-Phil Rian Glenn Butron closed the program announcing that Efficascent Relaxing Oil is now available in all leading drugstores and supermarkets nationwide.
