A few weeks ago, I was invited to be part of Lay Bare's First Bloggers' Event. It was a jammed packed day filled with fun exciting activities. Lay Bare is the first ever unwanted hair removal specialist in the Philippines. They provide eyebrow threading and body waxing services using cold sugar wax only. No more strips! No more hot wax! Just plain, comfortable, hair removal at a price you can definitely afford.. ( http://www.lay-bare.com/about-laybare.php ) For a newbie like me, finding the best waxing salon will make such a wonderful first time experience.
Just take a look at the brand partners??? I was like WHOOOAAAA!! SO Cool! Honestly, other than the waxing thing... I'm kinda looking forward to the all women's work out.. hihihi I badly need it 'coz I have been eating crappy weeks before this event...
As you enter Curves, This is how it looks like. I love how it's not intimidating and how it's so inviting.
After our intense 30 minute workout, we were told that we are now ready to head over Fisher Mall for the launching of their Newest Branch there.
Before entering Lay Bare, a huge buffet of sweets will just bring out the inner 'lil girl in you.. Just take a look at how rainbows and unicorns landed on this dessert table?! FANCY!!!!
It was so beautiful that you wouldn't want to take a small bite... ( I wouldn't want to destroy that yummy piece of art )
After a few welcome remarks from their Marketing Director, Ms. Jaime, I too the challenge of going bare and having that dreaded Brazilian Wax. Waaaaahhhh!!!
I like how the tools or products are neatly laid out on the table. At first, I thought that having Mrs. Smith ( I will refer to my vagaegae as such) waxed would be like a trip to the OBGYNE... where you like lay on a contraption and raise both legs and be forced to endure a hell kinda pain. But here, it wasn't like that! they just bring in simple products and tools such as a damp warm cloth and the sugar that they will use for your waxing session. It's so hygenic because I don't see any sticks. I don't like waxing sticks.. they kinda give me that " Imma stab you NOW" feeling.
In ever room, there are these reminder for each client. It's very educating especially for someone like me. Seriously, up until this point I didn't now the level of pain I will be going through because of the Brazilian Wax challenge.
This photo was taken shortly after the session. I'm not gonna lie.. IT WAS PAINFUL>>>!!!! REALLY!!! But I guess it is pretty normal for first timers like me. I mean come on... I never had anyone slap Mrs. Smith like that. But hey! Here's what made me endure that session. The pink lady you see on the left side of the photo, made my experience as calming and zen as it could possibly be.. hahhaa.. but really, she made me laugh so hard that I forgot how painful it was. She also promised that the second session will be 90% less painful and I trust her.
Even if there was pain, the results were like.. wooooooaaahahhh!!! This time imagine angels decending down from heaven with all there harps making music in respect for my glorious vagaegae.. haha.. She looks absolutely stunning... and of course I wouldn't take a before and after shot??? But just trust my words that your Mrs. Smith will look brighter, fairer and smoother.
It's been weeks after my first session and the regrowth of hairs are still minimal. I'm glad I took that challenge.. Now I can definitely say I AM BIKINI READY... WIT WOOW!

After months of hectic work schedule, events, and more, I finally found time to pamper myself. Now this is the part where it gets better. It's not just a day, BUT A WEEK. I GET A WEEK OF PAMPERING... WOOT WOOT! I hope those capital letters described how excited and overjoyed I am because this opportunity is quite rare.
Amazingly on the same day, I got a package in the mail that will accompany me on my one week "ME-TIME." It contains a chic looking box filled with goodies such as; Jergens Original Beauty Lotion and Jergens Soothing Aloe and a coffee container. This came with a note as well saying that I must fulfill a 7 Day Challenge. So to keep things exciting, I joined the bandwagon of bloggers who will try the 7 day challenge filled with 7 missions I must accomplish. But wait! I don't want to do this alone.. come join me too.. and let's make it a whole 7 days of "WE-TIME."
MISSION #1 : RADIATE BEAUTY FROM WITHIN
Take a bottle of Jergens from your welcome pack and share it with a complete stranger. Tell us why you chose that person and her reaction when she received your gift. Post a photo of her with her Jergens bottle.
I am so ready for this. Having beautiful skin should be for everyone and I felt I just know the right person for this. weeeeehhhh!!!!
Meet Fanny, the nicest hair dresser in the planet. ( A shout out to the Gay Lesbian Community. I will use the title "she" because of her sexual orientation and I EXTREMELY respect that) She is such a sweetheart. I love how she makes every hair cutting session a fun hilarious experience.
Because she spends 10- 12 hours in an air conditioned room cutting hair, her skin tends to feel dry and rough. So the giddy me happily handed her a bottle of Jergens Original Beauty Lotion as tip for her awesome service.
Her reaction was priceless! The smile on her face tells me that she is grateful for the kind gesture I just did.
MISSION #2: LEFT vs. RIGHT
Apply the new Jergens only on your left arm and leave the right arm bare for the meantime. Take a photo of both arms, comparing the two and tell us your observations.
So right before your eyes, you guys will see the difference between both arms. On my left, I applied a generous amount of lotion. Don't be scared to slather this baby on because it will never leave your skin feeling greasy. The formulation allows it to be easily absorbed by your skin.
The aloe scent leaves you smelly fresh and clean. My fiance loves sniffing me whenever I have this on. He says I smell like "Bagong Ligo" ^_^
Immediately the left arm looks fairer because light reflects better on a well moisturized skin.
Now it's your turn to do a selfie and use the hashtag: #LetItGlow and tag me @krislumagui and @jergens_vibelle
MISSION #3: KEEP HYDRATED
Water is good for your body and helps your skin healthy and looking young as well. Drink only water today using your Jergens tumbler. Post a photo with a time stamp every time you do a refill.
I know! I look different in these pictures. It's because I've drawn on my brows and wore those chic lenses. But other than that, what makes me beautiful in this picture is the fact that my skin is hydrated from inside and out.
There are tons of benefits from drinking water and I know you know that too! I try to make sure that I drink a glass every 2 hours to ensure my body and mind function right.
I love how Jergens supports skin nourishment from within. No other brand can take care of my skin the way Jergens do.
MISSION #4: NURTURE RELATIONSHIPS
Keeping healthy relationships go a long way to making you feel good and look good. Take your mom or your best gal pal out for a surprise lunch or dinner tonight with this gift certificate from Cabalen.
Tip of the day: As you nurture your relationships, nourish your skin as well for a beauty that radiates inside and out. Apply your favorite Jergens variant twice a day to reveal your most beautiful skin yet
Wedding planning is never an easy deal. After getting engaged to this guy ( he's been my wedding plans rant go see.. lol) So to make things a lil bit chill for us, I invited him to have dinner with me and my parents...( nyhhahah! In Laws! hahhaha)
And of course the highlight of this dinner date is MY MOM... I just wanna say how amazing of a woman she is for raising me well and because of her I am the woman I am today. I LOVE YOU MOM.
