Instagrammable Desserts and Drinks at Brother's Blends

Not only for your IG feed but also for you to feed your craving taste buds!

Here's a little background of Brother's Blends before it skyrocketed the market at it's first store at Buendia Food by the Court. Bryan (co-owner) started to sell cold-pressed juices infused in a bottle to different companies in Ayala. He was then working as a nurse then eventually became an entreprenuer together with his brother, Kevin Factor (co-owner). Awesome right?

What's more is their nice food presentation. Planning to order from them on your next food park visit? Here are some ideas:

Charcone Ash Froyo

The main ingredient of this Ice cream is Ashitaba (It's a healthy green plant which they usually use with their desserts and drinks) that will surprisingly tickle your food indulgence. At first we thought it was actually Avocado or something like green tea. How's that for a new healthy discovery? 

Fresh Ashitaba Plant

Bucket Honey Iced Tea

They make everything: from the cone, ashitaba and oolong tea that is brewed for 16 hours.

Frappe for 2

Like they always say, there's no magic- just pure skills and from mother nature. They meticulously mix the quintessential healthy ingredients and insta-worthy presentation that makes them a sure hit to the public. 

The Coconut Ice Cream topped with jackfruit, peanuts and sauces charmingly served on a coconut shell or Bao. It's fresh and 100% organic!

It's interesting that they keep on innovating new desserts and drinks that will inspire you and support local products!

Look and Feel your Best with Whipped!

Most of my friends are asking me to share my thoughts about my skin care regimen and anything I teach from my talk/seminar to schools. I'm happy to share how I look and feel best with this tips so here's a part of it in this blog entry..

Read on :)

1.   Have a good hair and face regimen. For the face it’s wash, tone, moisturize. Do this everyday, don't skip.  Avoid using too much products. Make sure you choose the right one fit for your skin not just because they're cheap or someone just gave it to you. Remember, you're doing this for yourself.

2. Proper oral care. You sweat out the smell of the food you eat. (Omg, I swear, avoid strong smelling foods) Example, spicy foods. Always bring Tictac or mint inside your bag. I prefer candies over gum. Chewing a gum for me is not classy.

3. Be aware of how you smell. Put deodorants, cologne or perfume.  For guys, if you feel sweaty or oily , dab baby powder for instant feeling of freshness.

4. Do not groom in public. Even a quick touch up of your lippie – everything should be done in the restroom.  

5. Let your hair dry before going out. It might attract dust and particles easily. There are hair myths that aren't true as well, like sleeping with wet hair will not damage your eyes and pulling out gray hair wont make it multiply – it’s just a bad habit.

6. Avoid shaving your unwanted hairs on your own, leave it to the pros. Shaving have a lot of disadvantages on your skin. Try cold waxing and see for yourself. Whipped offers caramel scrubbin before having it waxed so it will soften and whiten your skin as well. 

Your appearance is very powerful. It can dictate the way people treat you, and the way they perceive you. 

Remember, good grooming is a sign of maturity. It is a sign of respect for yourself, your body, gracefulness and is a trademark of who you are.

Dare to Get Whipped

A lot of people are wondering why I rarely repeat clothes. I don't actually know, either. 

Maybe because I love to change my style from time to time. I can be girly-girl today, laid back tomorrow, then all posh the next day. It depends on my mood. (and the occasion, of course)

All I know is I love being comfortable and happy with the way I dress-up. 

But the question is, how can I pull off my outfit If I had to consider hiding my flaws? (Like when I forgot to strip off the hair on my balbon legs, etc)

Some of you might not consider waxing since you can shave it anyway. But that's definitely a no, no! I discovered that shaving is really not friendly with our skin. I can attest since I've been shaving my legs and underams for years and the result is really unflattering. 

Now, I'm not sugar coating what Whipped can do with our skin but with so many months that they've been taking care of my skin, I see a big difference from before. Years from now, I'll reach the big 3-0. And as early as now, I already have to choose brands and services that'll will definitely benefit me when the time comes.

I guess it's already time for you to try and visit Whipped too and see for yourself what can it actually do. :)

Choosing Clothes with Whipped

Choosing what clothes to wear might take hours to most girls. You have to undergo series of outfit changes only to end up, wearing an outfit that looks so put together and uncomfy. Sometimes we also consider our flaws. We have to avoid clothes in big sizes, skimpy dresses and horizontal stripes since it might make us look bigger, or not wearing shorts and skirts cause we have to hide our unwaxed legs! Oops!

For last month's Ootd for Whipped, I opted for a short dress - very comfy and laid back. Of course, with my favorite piece of clothing, Denim. 

The magic to a relaxed style is a well-stocked wardrobe. I guess I'm into comfort over style now. Signs of aging, maybe. Haha! Ok, just adulting.

So happy, Whipped is always there to help me widen my clothing choices! I can wear whatever clothes I like since I know my skin is smooth and hair-free!

What I'm wearing: Forever 21 Dress

American Eagle Outfitters Denim Jacket

PRP white sandals
