Close Up White Now.

WHITE NOW = WHITE TEETH RIGHT NOW

When I noticed that my teeth were beginning to have that yellowish tint to it, I went to Bangkok to have it whitened. They made this rubber mold of my teeth and I had to put this white gel on it before I sleep.

I did it for a while and noticed a significant change but DARN the pain it caused. It would often send lightning bolts to my teeth because that's the effect of the gel. You are not supposed to make it touch your gums or not supposed to swallow it. How hard is that? Especially when you are sleeping right?

Anyway, been there done that and I can only say that I am super happy upon learning about Close Up White Now. Not only is the packaging ultra sexy, it whitens my teeth instantly. I mean like, right after the first use.

It masks the color of the teeth...but it is not bleach so it is safe to use. Also, the taste is yummy and it fights tooth decay.

At the press launch, as we entered, the photographer would take our photo, teeth showing, of course. After a little talk, they asked us to brush our teeth in a portable sink. It was funny...Isabel Roces and I were glad we went first. Note to self: never have photo taken next to this woman.

After brushing for 2 minutes (they timed us), we headed over the the make up station! When make up was done, they fixed our HAIR!! I was loving it by the minute!!! My kind of event!

And then, photographer took our photos again and made us take home a photo of our teeth before and after. Honestly, I couldn't really tell the difference at that time but I can say that now, after using it for 3 weeks, it has become whiter.

Get instantly whiter teeth with Close-Up White Now, and be ready to get closer… now.

The Jul Dizon Reveal!

After a month and a week of being closed under renovation, we finally took down the curtains last Monday to reveal the new look of Jul Dizon. My Mom would have been very proud and happy with the outcome.

Ginny and I did the flowers the way we feel she would have done. Plain white with a touch of green. I miss her.

I want to thank Martha Uy, Brian, Lucille, Anne and all the people that worked to make the shop look magnificent. Thank you for the gowns, Puey Quinones and James Reyes.













Chef Andreas Gillar prepared the delectable sweets and assorted quiche.






The beautiful friends of Jul Dizon.










Champagne shots! Cheers!

Stiffy and Muji.

Ok, I apologize for not posting anything new since Muji. Last Tuesday, 2 am, I woke up to an incredible, massive and uncomfortable STIFFY!

No...not that kind, you filthy minded readers, but it was my neck!!! I couldn't move! It was terrible pain that I have never felt before. I was trying to recall which is more painful, giving birth or the stiffy. It comes very close to being equal but then it also made me remember what my Mom was feeling during her last few months. I can so totally relate to what she was feeling and felt really sad that she went thru that.

Anyway, 4 days later, I am still in pain. At this point, I am sure you are calling me crazy because I haven't had a check up. I don't like doctors much, sorry to my doctor friends. But I have read a lot about it and all I need is a hot water bag on my back, salon pas, and minimal movement but proper stretching. I did all that. I swear...but I still feel pain...I am so kawawa. (I am so good at self pity, gets me lots of attention).

So, today, I had to go back to work because I have a dinner tonight with my VVIP's at The Goose Station! WOOHOO!!!!

I checked my iPhoto and saw all the things that I need to blog about. So I will shut up about my stiffy and get to work.

I have to go back to MUJI. I haven't really shown you all that I wanted to.


















The Muji Lovers!


























The Peninsula Manila catered and my sistahs and I were really happy with the food. They were all delicious.






Now, to end my Muji post, I went back last Wednesday and this is what I saw.

There were ZERO snacks left except for some dried fruits.

Even the belts are dwindling.
The sofa and square bean bag are goners!
Not even single ECO BAG that we stamped on.
Kawawa naman to look at. But can you guess how much MUJI made since it opened last week? New stocks to come in November.
