Raising a healthy child is mom’s ultimate achievement. As a mom, you are constantly worried about your baby’s development; you would like them to experience new things, but you are also afraid of what these new things can bring. Thankfully, moms have the healthy pillars to help them as they raise their kids and navigate the world of motherhood. Interconnected with each other, these pillars are integral during the first steps of a baby’s development, making sure that they’re all set as moms nurture them.

Cetaphil Baby advocates the Four Healthy Pillars: Healthy Food, Healthy Play, Healthy Sleep, and Healthy Skin. Each pillar is important for baby’s health and development, and skin is such an important part of their overall health, because it will protect them throughout their life.

Cetaphil Baby offers moms the best way to give babies the right foundation for healthy skin by supporting its development as it matures from its earliest stages onward. Moms can find peace and assurance that they can keep their baby’s skin protected now and in the future.

Cetaphil Baby products are clinically proven to respect, maintain & improve the structure of even the most sensitive skin, supporting baby skin’s natural development. It has been tested and approved by experts because of its gentle, hypoallergenic formulation that contains skin-barrier building ingredients like glycerin and panthenol, and other natural ingredients like chamomile, shea butter, almond oil, aloe vera, and calendula to keep baby’s skin soft, smooth and protected.

Cetaphil Baby offers even more gentle products suited for sensitive skin

Cetaphil Baby currently has two ranges: the Classic Line and the newly launched Calendula range. Included in the Classic Line are: the Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wash & Shampoo, a tear-free 2-in-1 hair and body formula that gently cleanses your baby’s delicate skin and hair, leaving it soft and clean.

For those looking for moisturizing goodness, the Cetaphil Baby Moisturising Bath & Wash is enriched with ⅓ baby lotion to care for even the most delicate skin protecting it against dryness.

The Cetaphil Baby Shampoo is a gentle caring formula enriched with chamomile to restore natural skin protection for a healthy scalp, while the Cetaphil Baby Gentle Cleansing Bar is ideal for teaching babies about hygiene as moms give them independence and the responsibility of caring for themselves with simple tasks like handwashing.

The Cetaphil Baby Daily Lotion is enriched with shea butter that soothes, nourishes, and keeps the baby’s skin hydrated for up to 24 hours.

The new Cetaphil Baby range contains calendula extract that has been used for many centuries due to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties and includes Cetaphil Baby Wash and Shampoo, 2-in-1 formula that smoothens, softens, and improves skin texture. It is specifically designed to be used from head to toe daily.

The Cetaphil Baby Daily Lotion with Organic Calendula is especially helpful for the skin barrier of sensitive skin, providing 24 hours of skin moisturization.

Finally, for babies experiencing rough skin patches in cheeks, knees, elbow areas, or under those chubby folds, the best suited product is the Cetaphil Baby With Organic Calendula Advanced Protection Cream, which helps reduce the feeling of discomfort and irritation and provides long-lasting irritation for up to 24 hours.

To complement the existing lines, Cetaphil Baby also introduced its latest product: the Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wipes. This new product gently cleanses and moisturizes baby’s delicate skin and is made from 100% plant derived fabric. Made with natural ingredients like aloe vera and Vitamin E it helps prevent baby’s skin from drying out, making Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wipes ideal for face and body use of baby’s delicate skin.

“There are plenty of grand and beautiful churches in Europe, but I strongly believe we can also have them in our country”.These were the words of Fr. Jerome R. Secillano, Parish Priest of the Nuestra Senora Del Perpetuo Socorro (NSPS) Parish in Calamba Street (between Instruccion and Sisa Sts.), Sampaloc, Manila, when he decided to
embark on the reconstruction of the church in 2013.

After years of waiting, the church, which now appears to be at par with those in Europe, will be Dedicated (inaugurated) on October 29, 2022, Saturday, at 5:00 p.m., by His Eminence Jose F. Cardinal Advincula, Jr., D.D., Archbishop of Manila. The solemn activity will be attended by Bishops, priests, government officials, benefactors and parishioners.
“All are welcome to worship in this exquisite house of prayer. When you do, please remember to pray for the benefactors, donors, contractors and ordinary workers who sacrificed tirelessly to complete this project. Without them, there won’t be a new Nstra. Sra. Del Perpetuo Socorro Church”, Fr. Jerome said.

The famous beauty and skincare brand are known for its line of serums, soothing gels, soaps,  lotions, and hair care that aims to transform and empower the beauty of every Filipina. 

Last Friday, October 14, in Mandaluyong City, to celebrate the success of its first run, Luxe Organix announces the second wave of its famous giveaway promo Bath Splash. “As our way of expressing our deepest gratitude to all our customers, we would like to treat them with a bigger giveaway promo,” shares Mr. Eugene T. Yap, CEO of Genson Distribution Inc.

A minimum single receipt purchase of PHP 1,500 worth of LUXE ORGANIX skin, body and hair care products gets the  customer a chance to score any of the exciting prizes worth over 2 million pesos. 

Prizes include three (3) iPhone 14 and iPad 9, two (2) Louis Vuitton bags, and an Hermes Birkin Bag. The  giveaway promo runs from October 1 to December 31, 2022.

At the said event, Luxe Organix reported another laurel on its cap as the brand received a Dermatologically tested seal acknowledged by experts in KC Research Center in South Korea and Dermatest Research Institute for Reliable Results in Germany. 

This announcement follows the company’s mission of providing every Filipino customer with high-quality products at affordable price points, “At Luxe Organix we pride ourselves on extensive scientific rigor when it comes to developing a new product,” said Mr. Eugene T. Yap, CEO of Genson Distribution, Inc.

The exclusive seal from experts is a nod to the company’s vision that ensures all products are suitable and safe  for sensitive skin. All of Luxe Organix’s products were tested in their final form assessing each and every  potential that might cause irritation and sensitization (allergic reactions) on the skin.

Present at the launch are Dr. Drolah Sanchez, Dr. Bea Maxine Chan, and Dr. Kei Rebolleda who explained the importance of this seal. When having sensitive skin, which can translate into redness, itchiness, and dryness, among other symptoms,  people tend to be anxious about trying new products. Understanding the role sensitive skin plays in most people’s everyday life has the same importance as understanding the role the “dermatologically tested” label plays for Luxe Organix’s cosmetic and hair products.

“We are committed to providing holistic Filipina beauties with clinic-grade skincare products that are highly effective and give great value for money,” Yap ended in a statement.

With this year’s CISW’s “The Turning Point – Post Pandemic Consumer Insights and Trends” theme, we take into account the historical perspective of pandemics and its effect on cultural renewal. With every pandemic that happened in the past, there has been a rebirth that followed. Will this be the same for our time?

What opportunities lie before us? How are consumers and businesses adjusting and coping with the many changes constantly happening? What challenges are we facing now and in the future? Are we truly on the road to recovery or should we be on the lookout to brace ourselves for more pitfalls?

On Day 1 of the webcon, “The Consumer Awakens” sub-theme will identify new consumer needs based on recent research and understand the trends that can help pinpoint future needs and customer expectations.

On Day 2, it will be all about New Beginnings. We’ll listen to stories that can provide innovative ideas and inspire people to address different consumer needs that emerged due to the pandemic that still continue to evolve in this endemic stage.  What is the role of brand purpose, trust, of sustainability and what other frames of references are there for brands to consider in their strategies and plans? 

We have the CEO & Chairman of Havas-Ortega as our Keynote Speaker who’ll be discussing renaissance from pandemics. What are the new realities and new expectations for marketing and businesses?

We also have Martin Oxley of Buzzback, Joan Penaflorida of Yondu, Inc.

Two of the country’s coffee made history at the Global Coffee Championship held recently in Kintex, Korea.

Philippine’s Liberica and Arabica coffee took on some of the best coffees in the globe and captured Silver and Bronze at the Global Coffee Championship Signature Coffee Award: Latte and Signature Coffee Award: Brewer.

Michael Harris Conlin, 2019 Philippine National Barista Champion represented the country in the competitions. “It is an honor to represent the country and have the opportunity to highlight Philippine coffee in the world stage. I love coffee competitions. I enjoy the pressure and pushing my skills to the limit; this is one of the best ways to bring the best out of myself and grow as a coffee professional,” said Conlin.

Out of over 30 competitors per category, Sta. Maria, Laguna’s Liberica won the Silver award in Signature Coffee Award: Latte; while Balili, Benguet’s Arabica won the Bronze award in the Signature Coffee Award: Brewer. The coffee competition was judged by 12 world class coffee experts in a blind round of judging with the Judges not knowing who the Barista was.

“When the opportunity came up to join a brewing and latte competition that is judged purely on sensory and blind with the Judges not knowing who the Barista was, I felt it was the best way to see how Philippine Arabica and Latte would fair against some of the best baristas and coffees from around the world,” added Conlin.

Most barista competitions put focus on the Barista. It’s rare that the barista takes the back seat, and the coffee gets a chance to take the main stage to compete in a global coffee competition.

Conlin’s Henry & Sons team worked closely with coffee farmers from the Juan Santiago Agriculture Cooperative (JSACOOP), an OTOPreneur from Santa Maria, Laguna, and the Dado family of Agnep @benguetarabica farm in processing and introducing the country’s Laguna Liberica and Benguet Arabica to the world.
