My first Gluta IV Drip! - Gluhen Glutathione Center

Jexx Hinggo 12:54 PM lifestyle , 0 Comments

I've heard a lot of clinics that are starting to offer Glutathione services in the city, mainly through friends raving about this technique in administering Glutathione via IV drip. They say the effects are much faster than taking a pill or using soap with Glutathione. I was a bit scared to try but was really curious about it. FYI, I've never had this procedure done in my life, thank God!

So a friend of mine tapped me to try the services of Gluhen Gluta Center, a skin clinic located at Villa Conchita, Rivera Village here in Davao. Again I was a bit hesitant at first but finally found the courage to test it out. The benefits appealed to me, especially the detoxification (I eat a LOT), so it was definitely worth a shot.

When I got there, I met Riz and Erik Caballero, the owners of the clinic. They were really accommodating and even introduced me to their staff. They have 3 full-time nurses who administer the IV Drip and a physician for consultations. I was amazed after they showed me all their packages and the materials they use for my IV drip. Riz showed me the ampule and the vial and explained the step by step procedure. They also presented a waiver and explained the benefits and possible complications. After that, I felt much more at ease and comfortable. I was thinking, hey, this may not be so bad after all.

The nurse then started the procedure and was able to hit my vein in just one prick. The feeling was a bit weird at first but, I got used to it. It took 30 minutes to finish the contents of the bag. She asked me to contact them immediately if I had any adverse reactions.

Here's the package they offered me:

Based on my experience, I can really see the difference on my face and skin. My skin became fair and I had no breakouts. I also felt very cleansed because I was able to lose my bowel once or twice a day. According to Ritz, you can have a session every 2 days. You can have more than 4 sessions depending on your preference.

I am really happy with the results and to be honest, I highly recommend this than taking a Gluta pill. If you want faster results, try the Glutathione IV Drip. It may be uncomfortable sometimes, but you can really see and feel the effects immediately. Just a reminder, that Glutathione is an antioxidant and not a skin whitening product. Having a fair skin is just one of its effects, :)

I highly recommend that you visit Gluhen Glutathione Center if you've decided to try it. From licensed and experienced staff, owners, and best products, you'll be secured to get the best service here in Davao City.

They now have 2 clinics in the metro!

McDonald’s 5th National Breakfast Day

Jexx Hinggo 10:51 AM events , 0 Comments

McDonald's invited us to their National Breakfast Day last March 13. They gave free breakfast sandwiches to customers from 6 to 7 in the morning. Almost 450 stores participated to this event by giving their customers a free Sausage McMuffin, Egg McMuffin, or the new Burgerdesal via dine-in or drive-thru.

JC Santos, an actor who played alongside James Reid and Nadine Lustre in the recently concluded teleserye, joined the staff of McDonald's Bajada in giving away free breakfast to the customers. In Luzon, Marian and Dingdong Dantes graced the event while Tommy Esguerra was in Cebu.

McDonald's National Breakfast Day JC Santos

Every year, McDonald’s extends the experience of National Breakfast Day to groups of early risers – those who are unable to enjoy a good breakfast because they are up earlier than everyone else to work or serve. This year, McDonald’s makes it extra special and pays tribute to those who have helped others welcome new beginnings.

Davao Bloggers at McDonald's National Breakfast Day

To celebrate the beauty of mornings and how they bring forth new beginnings, McDonald’s released an online video, telling the story of Mrs. Luzviminda Santiago, a public school teacher who dedicated her life to imparting lessons and providing support to students. The video highlights the importance mentors have in enabling and inspiring the community, and hopes to encourage viewers to pay tribute to those who have helped usher in a new beginning for them. Watch the video below. :)

I would like to thank Ms. Joanne from EON Public Relations for inviting us! :)

Redefine your Starbucks espresso experience with their newest handcrafted beverages. Starting February 21, we can enjoy the new Starbucks espresso layer collection which includes two new flavors, the Tahitian Vanilla Macchiato and Valencia Orange Cocoa Cappuccino. Joined by a returning favorite, the Matcha & Espresso Fusion, all the beverages offer delicious layers of flavor that appeal to coffee lovers seeking new adventure and sophistication in coffee.

Tahitian Vanilla Macchiato offers a twist on the classic pairing of vanilla and coffee – a marriage made in heaven. Tahitian Vanilla has a unique floral aroma and mild sweetness which pairs the roasty coffee, complemented by a layer of velvety steamed milk, then topped with Starbucks signature espresso and finished with vanilla bean specks and vanilla drizzle in our classic double crosshatch pattern.

Meanwhile, the refreshing Valencia Orange Cocoa Cappuccino is perfectly blended to suit the taste of those who need the reinvigorating sweet flavor. In this beverage, Valencia Orange Mocha Sauce is combined with milk, topped with dense and creamy foam and then layered with affogato-style signature espresso shots, sweet cocoa powder and tartly-sweet bits of orange peel to add even more flavors.

These layered espresso beverages are handcrafted by Starbucks Baristas, reflecting their true artistry and sharing their passion for coffee to the customers with every sip.

“We are delighted to introduce Starbucks latest take on espresso, with Baristas offering unique and sophisticated treats for coffee lovers. They vary in flavor, texture and experience but espresso is always at the core. Starbucks Baristas craft carefully selected ingredients with espresso to produce stunning combinations of flavors and layers. These beverages invite customers to experience new and different ways to enjoy coffee,” said Keith Cole, head of marketing, Starbucks Philippines.

Also available for a limited time is the Starbucks Tribute BlendTM created to celebrate the company’s 40th anniversary in 2011. It combines the all-time favorite coffees: Ethiopian sun-dried beans with an exotic flourish of dark cherry; Aged Sumatra, loved for its syrupy body and cedary spice notes; juicy, herbal and complex coffees from Papua New Guinea; and our Colombia coffee, bright, balanced and nutty. You can also enjoy this coffee anytime, anywhere with the Starbucks VIA® Tribute BlendTM so you won’t miss out its layers of flavors even on the go.
