What if Watson's gave you 10,000 pesos to pick out anything for someone you care about?
Sounds like a fun project to me. I chose my friend Lia whom I've known since my knees were dark and my favorite outfit was a polyester jumpsuit with a forest print. Lia and I are like sisters who have our ups and downs. She's a survivor who's starting a new life with a new job, and her birthday's coming up.
I wanted to give her a fun and pampering package cause I want her to know she's in my thoughts, plus it's always fun to get a box with a little bit of everything.
Today I spent the afternoon shopping for her at Watson's Megamall. Take a look at what went inside my basket(s):
Because a little gossip is fun; everyone can use a new hairbrush; and I love Philippine-made natural shampoos.
Electric toothbrush changed my life.
Look at this amazing crave-away toothpaste—brush your teeth and lose your appetite! I love eat!
Could not resist the tooth-shaped dental floss. Plus one must always carry mints in their handbag.
I'm a sucker for cute packaging and promotional items. Wet tissues are a must in my handbag, and it doesn't hurt if Hello Kitty's on the package.
I thought the PH Care samplers looked cute, plus the Whisper Nights and Lactacyd are always good to have in one's bathroom.
Another thing I love are all kinds of Dove soap. I wish they would sell a variety pack like this.
Buy Filipino! Milcu underarm powder is a natural way to prevent body odor.
Fissan Prickly Heat Powder is good for preventing bacne. And Johnson's Baby Cologne reminds me of my childhood. I still think it is the best baby cologne scent ever.
Here's a kikay set of Revlon and Maybelline eyeshadow, Elf makeup brushes, Deep Cleansing Nose Pore strips, and tea tree-infused patches to lighten one's facial blemishes.
Because a couple of packs of Pringles won't hurt—especially if they're sour cream and onion.
Let's throw in some weight loss products like Slimfit and Xenical.
Pei Pa Koa candies for sore throat are good things to have with this bug going around.
Plus a couple of hair removal products, like the tried and tested Veet waxing strips and Intuition—simply the smoothest shave in town.
I made sure to throw in a care package of Advil, Biogesic, Centrum, Stesstabs, and Alaxan; an Epilin home waxing kit; two chocolate bars, and more.
All these went inside a box because I try to refuse all plastic bags.
Thank you for helping me carry this 17-lb. package
which I lovingly wrapped in Lili & Nana paper. Can't wait to send this to Lia. Thank you Watson's!
