Show your Intimates Some Love this Rainy Season

 Filipinas experience extreme humidity whether indoors at home or outdoors especially during the rainy season. Humidity results in changes that bother most ladies– frizzier hair, acne-prone skin, and generally an ickier, stickier feeling throughout the day. What most women don’t share– humidity also contributes to the unpleasant feeling within their intimate areas. 

Here are some tips from Carefree ambassador Rei Germar that can help beat the kulob and icky feels throughout the day this rainy season:

  1. Always have rainy-day essentials ready 

 This includes having foldable umbrellas, raincoats, and even small towels to keep yourself dry from the rain. 

2. Use Carefree pantyliners to keep your intimate areas clean and fresh all day

 Make sure to use some Carefree pantyliners throughout the day! Keep a couple of pieces in your essentials pouch so you can keep changing throughout the day in between activities.

There are different variants for different needs like Carefree Breathable for the clean, airy panty feeling all day, Carefree Super Dry to protect your panty from heavy daily discharge, and Carefree Healthy Fresh for superior odor-control. My personal favorite here is Carefree Breathable.

3. Touch up your look with makeup and some perfume

 A quick touch up on your look is such a mood booster! Knowing that I look my best throughout the day also helps combat the icky feeling I get, especially when the weather is gloomy.

Dr. May Gonzaga, gynecologist, also shares a few tips that can help Filipinas keep their intimate area clean and fresh during this time of the year. Dr. Gonzaga notes “Humid season are the times we should pay more attention to our personal hygiene and intimate areas because it makes women more prone to infections. As anything that increases the retention of heat, sweat, and wetness can lead to intimate discomforts and more importantly it can make the abnormal bacteria flourish and thrive which can lead to vulvar, vaginal, and urinary tract infections, peculiar foul smelling, and abnormal unwanted discharges from the intimate area.  To keep us ladies clean and fresh this humid season we should have good healthy habits, proper intimate hygiene and to use natural, thin, light, unscented, comfortable, cotton, hypoallergenic undergarments and pantyliners to keep us dry the whole day, and to minimize the building up of bacteria and infections.”

To avoid and minimize the building-up of the bad bacteria in the intimate area and thereby prevent possible infections & the discomfort that goes with it, Dr. Gonzaga also recommends that ladies should have a healthy lifestyle in general in terms of diet, exercises with emphasis to:

4. Practicing a habit of good feminine “hygiene”

 Wash and wipe always from front to back! Use water and mild soaps only, and washing the intimate area once to two times a day is adequate. Once you over-wash, you will wash away the good, healthy bacteria. And when this happens the ‘bad’ bacteria may colonize and give symptoms of unpleasant odors, discharge, and infections.

 5. Wear breathable clothes 

Using cotton, comfortable underwear instead of those synthetic fiber panties which can lead to irritation, itchiness, inflammation, and even infections. Avoid wearing tight clothes like tight undergarments, tight skinny jeans or tight pants, tight leggings which does not allow air to pass in your intimate area. Because our intimate area also needs to breathe. By allowing fresh air to pass through the area, it minimizes perspiration and gives one more comfort and is less prone to irritation and infections.

 6. By using a natural, thin, light, unscented, comfortable, cotton, hypoallergenic pantyliners to keep the vulvar area clean and dry the whole day.

 Changing every 3 to 5 hours a day depending on the day of cycle is recommended. This is to prevent vaginal irritations, itching, inflammation, infections and unpleasant odors and discharges from occurring.

 Alex Burgos, brand manager, shares “As the leading pantyliner brand, Carefree believes that Filipinas should not be bothered and not be accustomed to the icky sensation within the vaginal area. We advocate for women to not only just be clean, but be Carefree clean.”

25 Wisdoms (25 Things I learned at 25)

So I just turned 26 this year, I’m so old k? haha. It’s really been an eye opening year for me and the pressure really hit me this time. Anyways that would be another blogpost, I’m still winging it haha and I can’t wait what will happen to me this year.

I am sharing to you, 25 Wisdoms (25 Things I learned at 25). I was suppose to do this on my birthday last June 17 but I was really really busy. Anyways it’s been a month already and I still say that I am 25 whenever people ask me my age. It still hasn’t sinked in yet haha.

Before I share my 25 wisdoms, these are all based on my personal experiences and I am no pro or the best person. All random haha, but I would like to ask a favor to respect my private life. I won’t go into deeper details and no further questions, please. A girl doesn’t kiss and tell.

Anyways 🙂

  1.  “Huwag  ka maghanap ng kulang sa life mo and huwag ma inggit sa ibang tao”.  In English: Be content and don’t be jealous of other people.  Just wait, be patient, work hard and trust in God’s timing.                                                          
  2. “Love lang and don’t expect anything para hindi ka masaktan”. In English: Just love and don’t expect anything in return, so you won’t get hurt.                                    
  3.  “I really believe that whatever is for me, will never pass me”. -Shaina Magdayao. Yes, let it happen organically and don’t force it. Here is a vlog from Bianca Gonzales’ Paano Ba To with Shaina Magdayao https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw1J_pPIjqw

    screen grab https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw1J_pPIjqw
  4. Trust your gut and instinct. This one took years to develop and lately when I meet new people it’s not that I don’t like them, it’s that I don’t like their energy and vibe.
  5. Your public and private personality should be the same. Be authentic “magpaka totoo ka”. Yet still keep your private life, private. Not all things have to be posted on social media. Why? I don’t wan’t to jinx it. Remember, Love is quiet, Infatuation is loud. 
  6.  Love yourself and your BODY,  As cliche’ as it sounds-  it’s true. You don’t base your happiness from other people, it should start with yourself.  Do what makes you happy. That’s why I have ME TIME and I remove things or unfiend/ avoid people who are toxic.  #SelfCare #MeTime                                                                                                                                                        I am a body positive advocate, last year  my motto was YOLO so I ate whatever I want that’s why I gained a lot of weight and didn’t go to the gym that often. This year, before turning 26, I had health issues and I noticed how my body is changing. That’s why I had to modify my lifestyle. I wouldn’t lose weight if it wasn’t my health on the line and I want to feel good about myself. Plus it’s also part of my job to be photographed all the time, I want to look good atleast. #WhenAgingHitsYou 
  7. Believe in the Law of Attraction and do meditation(Incense Sticks).
    https://www.pinterest.ph/pin/580119995722186758/

    Start of first with your body (#6) by eating good & healthy food (plus workout). Once you feel good in the inside and the rest will follow and attract.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          This year, I started using incense sticks when I meditate(atleast once a week). Benefits of Incense sticks:https://www.vectiskarma.co.uk/Benefits-of-Burning-Incense   

  8. Travel more! I grew up travelling and I believe it  hones character, cultural awareness and  being more open. Try travelling alone too, it is really liberating. Travel as much when you’re single especially. I like to do this before I get married because once you settle down everything and priorities changes. While you are still young and you have the energy, what’s the rush!                                                          
  9. When it comes to friendship, for me HONESTY is the most important aspect more than loyalty. This was based on a personal experience.
  10. Say sorry once, twice is okay but Three times is abusive. I heard this from a taxi driver and he had a point.                                  
  11. Dating: Start as FRIENDS. The best foundation.                                                                                                                                                     Let me insert, if the guy is not single, MOVE ON.
  12. Relationships : Never make your partner, choose. You compromise and work things out maturely. If you two are meant to be together, you’ll end up together, let destiny do it’s job – According to my Mom.
  13. Know your LOVE LANGUAGE (also your partner, for future reference).  link:https://www.5lovelanguages.com/
  14. You will not always be motivated so you must learn to be DISCIPLINE.           I realized recently that I lacked action and I am working on it.
  15. Before I turned 26, I realized as you get older your circle of friends become smaller.  I was browsing on my old photos during my previous birthdays and I noticed the number of invites compared this year. Remember, other people have their own lives and just be happy for them. Anyways time to move on, make more new friends and just having 1 solid friend is enough. That’s part of growing up.
  16. Find a workout that you enjoy and you make time for it. For me I enjoy cycling and recently pound. It’s more of a personality thing. Try to switch up your workout too time to time so you won’t get bored and your body might get used to it. If you are trying to lose weight, 70% Diet (Kain talaga!) and 30% exercise, BIBLE! (Keeping Up with the Kardashian reference.)                        
  17.  I am at an age, this applies to some situations “Bahala ka kung saan ka masaya” or “Hayaan mo sila”.  In english: “It’s up to you for as long you are happy” or “Just mind your own business.” I get asked too about bashers, I just don’t mind them anymore.Just let KARMA do it’s job.
  18. When I show skin on social media, I choose an appropriate platform which is more on instagram but it should be in a classy way. NOT just too much, “hindi yung pabigay or seeking attention”. Like I show some skin because I am in the beach or fruit of my labor because I work really hard in the gym – that is okay.  There is appropriation and RESPECT for yourself.                                                                                                                                                              I realized, that in the future when I have kids or when I get married what would they think of me. My future daughter might say, “You did that when you were my age, mom”. There would be consequences. (“May balik yan”).                 
  19. Love is NOT blind, your judgment is just clouded.                                                                     
  20. When you notice that someone treats you differently or there is a sudden change in how they treat you, just understand, people go through a something in their personal life.
  21. When a guy says he is busy, believe him. What attracts him more towards you is that if he sees that you have a life, if he sees this world that you can offer, he would want to be part of it. Men are natural hunters.  – Matthew Hussey
  22. Don’t take things too personally.
  23. Take things ONE thing at a time. People always say, I have a lot of things going on in my life #multihyphenate. They think I have good time management haha seriously NOT AT ALL haha, I just wing it. I just like living in the moment and being spontaneous. Sometimes when you plan it doesn’t happen haha.
  24.  When Sh%tty things happen in your life, Just accept things and say what is this teaching me? Sometimes, I don’t want to be too happy because something bad may happen in return (“pag masayado ka masaya may kapalit) Tip: This is a traditional thing, when you are so happy or laughing hard, “magpunit ng papel” or cut/shred paper into smaller pieces). Just be calm and be neutral always. Learn also to forgive yourself, you are not perfect.
  25. GOD FIRST always.

    Me at 26 <3

 

Do It Your Mood With Wacoal

 

I have been introduced to wacoal  by my mom back in college. Back then I couldn’t afford one because I was a student and my mom would buy for me. It was costly but it was so comfortable to wear – I swear. When I got older, I realized investing on your intimates is important. Usual bras from wacoal would cost starting P1000 + but it is worth the investment.

November 16 – 18 was the launch of wacoal’s autumn/winter collection at UP Town’s activity center (near coffee bean). Fun filled activities like photobooth and boomerang booths. Attendees were also able to attend talks prepared by influencers such as Content creator/Entrepreneur, Rhea Bue (11 am) shared her travel hacks, Fashion/Lifestyle/Travel blogger, Char Deocareza talks about “Your go-to outfit” she shares that writes down and plan her outfits prior to her travels (1 pm) and Beauty/Travel B/Vlogger, Rei germar  teaches how to match outfits with your mood (3pm). 

if you guys have the time to check out Wacoal’s mood store and you’re by Katipunan area visit their boutique at UP Town Katipunan (3rd floor near coco tea and across underarmour). Thinking of what bra to get I would suggest the Travel Bra, Bandeau bra and sports bras. Actually all bras are very comfortable it’s just whatever matches your preference. 

For the wanderlust, the travel bra is so easy to pack just spread-roll and fold. It is not spacious to pack and gets back to its perfect form. The bandeau bra can be strapless and the wire part that supports the breast underneath is very comfy, it’s not that annoying thick wire feeling you get. Their sports bra are very versatile in style and it can match any athleisure look. The lace bras looks so nice and they have other basic bras with unique lace details that make it so cute to wear. Lastly, don’t forget to check their other autumn/winter collection. 

 

Monthly Subscription for your Furry Pals: Qrated Crates x Fetch Naturals

Being a former pet owner myself, grooming needs of pets are a necessity. I wouldn’t say I am an expert but I do have my own share of taking care of pets. Doing the actual grooming is not my department, it has always been my dad. Having a pet is a commitment and you have to maintain them. Not just food & shelter, a lot. It’s like raising your own child.

To my co – animal lovers and pet owners who are readers of my blog, I would like to introduce a lifestyle subscription called Qrated crates. Asia’s first subscription box discovery platform. https://qratedcrates.com/  (Instagram @qratedcrates)

This would come in handy to you especially every month you have to shop for your pets needs. Sometimes I know the hassle to shop at your usual and then no stock apparently since it run out or the delivery dates. We all have our busy schedules to deal with and you just know your pets needs will be delivered by your doorstep every month, nothing to worry.

Once you logged in the website, you have to create your account and register your basic information then from a number of categories you get to shop. The thing with this it’s a monthly commitment that will be delivered to your doorstop. That’s up to you on how long. If you have specifics such as price range, you can sort it accordingly on how you want exactly. You can also apply a vendor too!

FETCH NATURALS X QRATED CRATES

Fetch Naturals has teamed up with Qrated crates, they’ve send me a parcel of pet care but unfortunately I have no pets at the moment since some condominiums restrict domesticated pets. I am fortunate to have friends who have pets who are willing to try the products on their pets.

What I received were Natural pet care neem shampoo with aloe vera and leave on rinse with aloe vera and lavender. The main ingredient, Neem controls ticks, fleas, natural antiseptic, moisturizer and deodorizer. When you subscribe to Qrated crates for your month Fetch Naturals, it comes with an empty bottle plastic sprayer – This is for the leave on specifically. Directions are stated on the label on how to use the shampoo and the leave on. These two variants come together like for adults’ shampoo and conditioner.

I have 2 friends willingly wanted to try the products for their pets, one has a cat and the other one is a dog owner, so we can see the difference from different perspectives. Both of my friends were able to manage using the products and I got positive responses from both of them.

Abbi and her cat, Grey

“I tried it already Krish! Literally I just finished blow drying Grey.  Sa shampoo, ang galing kasi ang bango niya and hindi amoy chemical. Sobrang mabula din niya and ang kapal kasi ng fur ni Grey I thought makakalahati nako sa bottle pero hndi ilang pumps lang mabula na. Pansin ko din mas naging whiter yung white parts sa fur nya which is really a thumbs up! No need to buy whitening shampoo. Yung Leave on smells so nice and fresh sobrang tipid din. Kasi 2.5ml lang + water goes a long way, no need to worry about chemicals din kasi its mostly water and it smells nice na. So happy for giving me this product Krishh now I know a brand to buy”

Kathy and her dog, Zoey

“Super ganda niya! Smooth yung hair ni Zoey and shiny after. Mabango yung products! We noticed hindi nakakalagas ng hair. Zoey really liked it and enjoy her bath time session”.

What makes this line special that it is infused with Kera-Ceramide Serum.  Hair technology that makes hair nourished and stronger inside and out. Keratin gives the hair strength leaving it smooth and manageable. The Ceramide on the other hand prevents damage and restores shine. You don’t have to spend too much on expensive hair care products and it would be available in all leading supermarkets nationwide near you. 

 

 

 

 

Also that introducing their latest ambassador, the first Filipina to win Asia’s next top model, Maureen Wroblewitz.

“Just like the majority of women out there, I too desire to have salon-beautiful hair everyday, and not just when I’m coming from a shoot or a runway show. With Palmolive EXPERTIQUETM, I am my own hair expert. I am able to take charge of not only my beauty, but my everyday too. With Palmolive EXPERTIQUETM, I can OWN IT.” – Maureen Wroblewitz

The shampoo and conditioner comes in 3 variants: REVITALISTE, SMOOTHIQUE and RESILIENTE. Available in bottles 170 ml (P130.00) and in sachets 12 ml (P6.00).

 

 

REVITALISTE is for NORMAL to DRY HAIR, contains Kera-Ceramide with biotin and hyaluronic. It penetrataes and deeply nourishes hair fibers, enhancing hair’s vitality and natural movement.

 

 

 

 

SMOOTHIQUE (This is Maureen’s personal favorite) this is for FRIZZY HAIR, contains kera-ceramide serum with rare oil complex. It aligns, tames and adds control to frzzy and flyaway hair.

RESILIENTE for DAMAGED HAIR, contains Kera- Ceramide with arginine. It reconstructs and fortifies damaged, over – treated hair.

Impressions: Affordable ofcourse!, It still has that signature Palmolive scent with a kick but fresher scent which leaves your hair really smelling good. Your hair feels light right after and a cool feeling on the scalp. I use a wet brush in combing my hair and I noticed less hair falling off and it’s super smooth with NO tangles at all.

For the hair treatments, you got the INTENSIVE HAIR MASK 180 ml (P195.00), BEAUTIFYING OIL 30 ml (P195.00) AND ANTI-FRIZZ SERUM 70 ml (P250.00).

Impressions: The Intensive hair mask is used after conditioner, I personally use hair mask atleast once or twice in a week, I leave it on for a few minutes especially when I go to the steam room and sauna. For Palmolive Expertique Intensive Hair mask, according to the label you can leave on for 2- 5 minutes then wash it off. For me after washing, this hair mask definitely gives you that cool feeling on the scalp and your hair is so smooth right after. Your hair feels light if that’s what you’re going for.

The anti -frizz serum, comes in a spray bottle and I since I don’t have frizzy hair, I just hit the ends of my hair then distribute evenly since it prevents fly away hair. This is applied on towel-dried hair. 

For the beautifying oil, 1-2 pumps is enough rub it first, apply to your roots and massage till the end of the hair. Don’t apply too much. and its better to apply it if you took a bath then your hair let it dry(t towel dried hair) then apply the oil. I wouldn’t suggest if you haven’t taken a shower, it makes the hair really oily,

This Rainy Season, Start Fresh with Seattle’s Best Coffee

A great take on coffee + art together can turn out to be great and fun! Who doesn’t love coffee and art.

Anina Rubio creates stellar art pieces, you can see her work around BGC. Her style is modern and fresh just like SBC. She demonstrated her latest art project which is the  highlight of SBC Highstreet’s glass window.  Giving it a fresh take  and her personal touch because she loves her coffee in the morning. 

“I’m very much inspired by nature. You can see it in 98 percent of my artworks. This mural is very personal because I start my day with a shot of espresso or an Iced Americano, and I also have a backyard full of plants, which is a similar setting to what you have here at SBC BGC,” – Anina Rubio

Along with that the series of workshops lined up – The SBC Perkspective, a series of quarterly pocket events that will offer talks, workshops, and informal meet-ups aimed at giving a fresh perspective on how we create and view art, music, photography and other creative processes.

SBC is known for serving FRESH anytime! I personally know this because while I was reviewing for my board exam way back at  SBC – Tomas Morato, there were open till 4am (on selected days) so when I fell to pull an all nighter SBC was my go to- fresh meals, drinks and coffee. Till now my SBC meals and coffee never fails to be always fresh.

Introducing Vivo Smart Phone X21 in the Philippines Featuring It’s In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology

Extraordinary AI Photography experience set new industry benchmarks for mobile innovation

Manila, 21 June 2018 – Vivo on Thursday released the X21 flagship smartphone in the Philippines to bring users a brand new and futuristic unlocking experience with industry-leading In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology. Combined with its FullView™ Display, AI photography and upgraded face recognition technology, the X21 is the ideal mobile partner for the tech-savvy consumer.

Through its continuous research into user needs, Vivo has consistently pursued innovation to solve consumer pain points. Having invested in long-term research and development to overcome the problems posed by mass producing In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology, Vivo is finally bringing this secure and intuitive unlocking solution to more consumers. Vivo has also made major technology breakthroughs with its FullView™ Display and AI photography featured in the X21.

Two unlocking technologies to bring double convenience

Vivo has been the industry pioneer of In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology from showcasing its first prototype demonstration to successful mass production. To ensure user expectations for this technology are being met, Vivo has tasked its teams to innovate and perfect this technology on the new X21 to provide a reliable and secure unlocking solution to all consumers.

Vivo X21 replaces the rear fingerprint sensor with the latest In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology. This allows the sleek and unified design of the smartphone to be preserved without the need for a rear fingerprint sensor. With mere a flick of the wrist and a press on the screen to unlock, this convenient and seamless process is intuitive for any user.

Other than In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology, X21 also offers upgraded facial recognition technology with Face Access which scans users’ facial features for enhanced security.

Impressive FullView™ experience with a screen-to-body ratio of over 90%

Vivo X21 has a 6.28-inch 19:9 FHD+ FullView™ Display. With a super slim notch, and 1.66mm side bezels, it achieves a 90.3% screen-to-body ratio to provide a wider viewing experience compared to other similar-sized phones. Vivo has even enhanced its software to support the notch and developed a notification bar that maintains an immersive experience. Maximizing the beauty of the display, Vivo X21 uses P3 display color management technology and supports a P3 wide color gamut to ensure more accurate, natural and saturated colors.

Taking phone design to the extraordinary, X21 has ditched the metal body for a new 3D glass back cover. Every arc and curve on the back cover are ergonomically optimized to ensure comfort in your hand, with only 3.1mm thick in the middle. More than just smooth to the touch, X21 uses a new color-blending technique, which creates a unique luster that creates its elegant look.

AI Photography Brings a Superior User Experience

X21 continues Vivo’s heritage of photography leadership, featuring 12MP (24 million photographic units) front and rear cameras with Dual Pixel Sensors. The secondary rear camera is 5MP. Thanks to the larger photographic area of each pixel, X21’s camera significantly boosts picture clarity. On top of this, the X21 features fast focusing technology that rivals DSLRs, which enables it to focus fast and capture depth of field data in every pixel.

Vivo X21’s AI Scene Recognition not only identifies night, sports, vibration or back light scenarios, but it can also detect and identify 18 tags and 140 scenarios such as portraits, food and plants as it shoots. It then actively adjusts photography settings and effects to make it easy for the user to capture a great photo.

By upgrading Vivo’s photography technologies with AI, Vivo’s AI Face Beauty and AI HDR features can identify the subject’s sex, skin tone and surrounding lighting environment to create the ideal facial enhancement settings, even in a backlit environment. With AI Face Beauty learning the user’s specific preferences for beauty, it can generate custom beautification effects tailored to each user. Think of X21 as your personal make-over team packed into one intelligent device.

System level optimization enhances mobile entertainment

Hardware forms the basis of any user experience. The X21 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660AIE chip which can effectively utilize CPU resources for complex AI and neural computing. Its 6GB RAM + 128GB ROM increases the speed of launching, loading and switching even large and complex mobile games. With the large storage space, users can go wild downloading all the applications, movies and photos they want without the hassle of clearing space.

While gaming, the system will automatically adjust the CPU to optimize performance according to the game’s resources for a smoother gaming experience. The Game Mode on X21 even prevents accidental touch operations, ensuring gamers only make the moves they intended.

X21 continues Vivo’s Hi-Fi legacy and houses the AK4376A audio chipset. It is also equipped with Deep Field technology, which was developed by Vivo to provide panoramic surround, mega bass, clear voice effects and various environmental audio effects, allowing users to tailor their audio experience.

Grocery shopping at PUSHKART.PH

I personally love doing my own grocery shopping except paying for it – kidding haha

Doing groceries has given me a full grasp of what being independent feels like – wants vs. needs. As we look forward to the digital age, but our personal times gets consumed too especially as an independent living student and hardworking millennial. There would be times we have no time to do groceries, I know the feeling when I was in college and the early days of me as a working girl. Thank goodness for the digital age, you can do things online. Finally an online grocery shopping – PUSHKART.PH

PUSHKART.PH is an online grocery service, developed by a group of young Filipino Millennials that aims to ensure fast, convenient, and safe delivery of groceries right at your doorstep. – Pushkart.ph

How?

By using your phone or desktop browser, type Pushkart.ph then you’ll be landing on their main site. First, create an account by giving all your basic information, contacts and shipping address (Please make sure to do this before you start shopping). After filling all the data needed, you can now proceed to your shopping!

PUSHKART.PH have different categories to shop, when it comes to variety of brands it’s just limited but the usual brands that we Pinoys consume. Maybe as the days go by Pushkart.ph will be expanding more varieties. Pushkart.ph is in partnership with Fisher Supermarket. You can read more about Pushkart.ph by heading to <FAQS> (Frequently asked questions, Billings and Payment & Delivery)

As you shop all the things you need, it is time to check out, let me inform you there is a P199 Delivery charge since it will be delivered in front of your doorstep- this is to save you time, gas (if you have a vehicle) and not carrying heavy bags back home.

What I personally like about PUSHKART.PH, you can schedule what time and day you prefer your groceries to be delivered. Incase your delivery comes late they send a text within the time frame you chose to let you know the reason why they are late etc. Payment options, can be cash or card.

Schedule your delivery

TIP: Once you check out, make sure this pops out showing your order reference number and you’ll get also get one in your personal email (part of the data you gave) – to guarantee your delivery.

Upon arrival of my groceries, it came in a sealed box and don’t forget to show your personal ID so they can clarify that it is really you.

The advantage is that they select the best quality to be delivered to you especially the organic (like fruits and veggies) kudos to that.

Disadvantage for those who chose CASH PAYMENT an option , I ordered my groceries to be delivered on SUNDAY (11 AM- 1 PM) but mine came late, they texted at 1 PM that due to so many shipments of groceries was the cause of delay which I understand personally because Sunday is a rest day for most and convenient day to be delivered. Since mine was cash, I have to be there once delivered or you can authorize (make a letter and give a copy of your ID) as another option.

So if you guys are busy and have no time to do their groceries why not try PUSHKART.PH and ENJOY YOUR PERSONAL SHOPPING EXPERIENCE!
