honestbee X The Marketplace

The Christmas countdown has begun, and so has the preparations for this festive season.  I am pretty sure, everyone is starting to prepare their Special Christmas menus, trying to make sure that their planned Christmas spread is on point.  Christmas somehow brings families and friends together and we all want to make it memorable.   

Yeah! Yeah! Chinese Cuisine

Are you craving for some really yummy Chinese food lately? Yeah?  There is a new Chinese Restaurant you must try in Quezon City.  It's called Yeah! Yeah! Chinese Cuisine (quite easy to remember right?), they serve authentic Chinese food such as dim sum, congee, noodle soup, and roasted meats.  There is also a wide selection of short orders, fried rice, rice toppings and desserts.

Apart from the simple but great-tasting food, you'll also love the modern interiors, with comfortable seating areas for big and small groups two.  Yeah! Yeah! Chinese Cuisine delivers both ambience, food quality, taste and affordable price points.

My husband, Mickey wanted us to go back the following week after eating here, so I know that they have some good food served here.

Here are some of the food that we had at Yeah! Yeah! Chinese Cuisine:

Hydrated Inside & Out with Cure, CREER and SIP

I have always admired people with beautiful skin.  Some may have it due to good genes, but others may have to work on it as well, to not necessarily have a rigorous skin care regimen, but rather a simple but effective one.  I gathered some tips on how we can take care of our skin better from the recent event by Beauty Box Corp.'s Cure and CREER brands, as well as from SIP Purified Water, and I'm just all too happy to share these with you.

K-Palette Eyebrow Tint

I guess if you have "partial" eyebrows like mine, chances are, you're probably scouring for the next best thing in eyebrow make-up at the make-up counter - whether it's pencil, powder or gel, low-end or high- end, or perhaps finding the perfect shade of brown.  Let's face it, brows are a big deal, especially for someone like me.

Summer Vibes with Greenwich Hawaiian Overload Pizza

Summer is undoubtedly my favorite season.  The warm weather brings forth fun weekend beach getaways, no make-up for days, just sunglasses, hair in a bun and replacing your cologne with the scent of sunblock.  Don't you just wish that summer would last longer?

It's a good thing that  Greenwich has the perfect pizza to keep sun-kissed feeling alive, even when the rain clouds start showing up - the Greenwich Hawaiian Overload Pizza!  It's loaded with sweet pineapples, topped with premium cheeses and a generous amount of bacon, giving you that delicious salty and sweet flavor you'll always crave for.

Of course, the Greenwich Hawaiian Overload Pizza is best shared with your summer-obsessed barkada, which Greenwich did recently and threw a Hawaiian luau-inspired birthday bash for beach babes and birthday girls, Yassi Pressman and Bela Padilla.

Hair Goals Achieved With Watsons

I have always been experimental with my hairstyle, I've gone from long to short, wavy and straight, bangs or no-bangs, if it's current and it looks good on me, then I would say to my hair stylist, "cut away!".  But of course, you must have a well-trained, go-to stylist, should you trust them the way I do, otherwise you might have to leave it to fate, and brace yourself for a surprise outcome, haha!  Well and good if the outcome is on-point, if not, you may have to grow it out until the length is good enough for a decent cut.

Erceflora Probi Bears: The 2-in-1 Probiotic Supplement for Kids

Children have a tendency to be exposed to higher risk of getting digestive health-related diseases such as diarrhea and constipation from harmful bacteria because they tend to play a lot with their hands.  It is known that Probiotics can help ease digestive disorders.  Probiotics are live microorganisms that help maintain the balance of good and bad bacteria in the digestive tract.   Although children can get Probiotics from yogurt and beverages that contain these, the amount may not be enough.

At an early age, I've always admired women of substance.  Women who have positive, driven personalities who are not only resilient in times of adversity but also have the power to inspire others to pursue their passion projects and make a difference.

In time for International Women's Day, Burt's Bees launched their "Be a True Force of Nature" campaign - where the spotlight was focused on naturally beautiful, real and confident women and their journey of expressing their true selves not only through the work that they do, but also how they help inspire others to live thoughtful and purposeful lives.
