New Year, New Possibilities

This year is the the year of possibilities, of wonderful opportunities. In fact, start imagining a better version of you this year. Believe in yourself and believe you can make things happen. Think about your goals, resolutions and priorities. It’s a brand new year and what could be a more exciting way to start the year by reminding yourself the important stuff:

Christmas Shopping Tips- Part 2

Here are some more Christmas shopping tips for Moms:

Leave your husbands at home. Well, this one’s debatable. But in my experience, it’s better to go shopping alone. Men can’t stand long hours in the mall. Shopping is excruciating for them.

Make sure you’ve already had something to eat. This helps you focus on the task at hand.

Wear flat shoes or slippers. You don't wanna sore your feet after all the walking, running, strolling...

Don’t buy on impulse! You have to be in control while you’re in the mall.

Choose quality stores. You want to get durable gifts. Don’t compromise quality.

Do consider malls that are within easy driving distance. A two-hour drive is so not worth the sacrifice!

Consider gifts that will outlive the season. Go for gifts that are educational. Books are a great way to spur any child’s imagination.

Get practical gifts like girl holiday dresses and girls Chinese dresses. Your daughter can surely wear them for the year-end party and the coming Chinese New Year.



Christmas is almost here again…
Happy Holidays! Happy shopping!

Christmas Shopping Tips- Part 1

As we all know, shopping malls don’t get any more crowded than in December. This holiday, make sure you got what you need. Here's a simple checklist.

Your plan. Know which stores you need to visit and which ones to skip. This save you time and effort. There’s something about Christmas that makes you want to buy almost everything in the mall!

Your list. At least a day before making your trip to the mall, you better make sure you have listed the things you need to get.

Your purse. This is self-explanatory.

How to Moisturize Kid's Face

It's getting colder because of the season and it's just right that the little ones get the same moisturizing as adults do. Their skin tends to dry as much as ours do especially if you're located on the snowy parts of the world.

As it is just right to seek the pedia's recommendation as what brands to use, I would like to share few tips I learned from friends and from my own experience.

For babies, it's advisable to use gentle moisturizers such as Cetaphil. What I did was put a drop of Cetaphil on a wet cotton ball and dab it on my baby's skin (it's actually okay to leave it there, no need to rinse it). For the body I used Cetaphil lotion and it worked great!

When my daughter grew a bit older, I started using moisturizing lotion such as Vaseline, Mustela, and so on. But the best I used so far was Mustela's Cold Cream which worked well with cold, windy weather.

For really bad conditions, Aquaphor might do the trick but make sure you use as little amount as possible and gently dab it on the area.

There, I hope you learned a thing or two. Remember that great skin is important and not to mention, the girls will look good wearing their girl's holiday dresses when they have clear, healthy looking skin!

So Moms, it's never bad to start the kids early on moisturizers! :)

Happy Holidays!
