Last July 11, 2018, Johnson's Baby held a launch party at the Happy Garden Cafe in Makati to celebrate their new product, the Johnson's Milk Range. They invited mommy celebrities and mommy blogger like me for brunch and to introduce the fabulous new products. Furthermore, they want to encourage self-love and to stop moms comparing themselves to those "perfect moms" on social media. I was one of the few who agreed to remove my make up to show "natural beauty" and I wholeheartedly agree that we should also post the unglamorous part of motherhood as that is truly part of it all.
I loved how mommy celebrity Bianca Gonzales Intal endorsed the new line, she was so fresh and naturally gorgeous! I was so happy to hear that she takes pride in the natural beauty and that she had the same feelings I had toward motherhood: like how I felt duped by curated social media posts, how painful and frustrating motherhood can be, and how I love being a mom at the end of the day. I do believe that bonding with my son is a worthwhile activity and we did some arts and crafts led by Tippy Go, another mommy celebrity. My kid super loved painting the cookies and making his bunny bag!
I liked how there are more variants of the Milk Range since we do use the Milk Bath a lot. I especially liked the Milk and Oats as I have dry and sensitive skin. This line is perfect for those sensitive skin types as they have the natural goodness of milk and rice plus the amazing features of oats extracts for more nourishment so the whole family can have baby-beautiful skin.
Johnson's Baby South East Asia Marketing Director Maimai Punzalan states that they are promoting the power of unfiltered motherhood and how moms should embrace and empower themselves one step at a time. I am totally backing this platform as I'm sick of comparing myself to those tall, thin, gorgeous moms on social media. I need to remind myself that I am beautiful, and I hope you do too.
