The Beauty Addict's Modelling Experience for Mommy Matters

A few weeks ago, I attended a meeting of a breastfeeding support group where I met the lovely owner of Mommy Matters, Ms. Candice. She asked me if I want to model for their clothes on a fashion show to be held at Tintin Bersola's baby shower party. Of course, I didn't even think twice and said yes :)

The event was held at Cafe La Carmela Makati

Hosted by the owner of Parentin.tv herself Mrs. Tintin Bersola-Babao. Such a pretty preggy :)

Part of the program was a 15 min-fashion show of Mommy Matters. My hubby took these videos for me:

I'm very glad to have experienced this while I'm still preggy. A memorable event don't ya think?

TBS also lauched their new body butter flavors. I only got to try the Wild Cherry. If you like fruity scents you'll love this.

I already stocked-up on Cocoa Body Butters during their last sale. I've been using it consistently on my pregnant tummy and still no stretchies now that I'm on my 8th month :)

If you're a fan of the TBS Body Butters too, now is the time to hoard. From 695, you can avail them now for 495 :) Promo will be up to the 28th of this month only.

After all the happenings, it was time for the "White Hat" treat.


Kim Rodriguez at The Body Shop's Beauty Event

I love Frozen Yogurts but it was my first time to try this brand.



Kim Rodriguez at The Body Shop's Beauty Event

I chose the mango, strawberry and cheesecake combination. Yummy! White Hat is the best frozen yogurt I've tried so far :)

Of all the products I've mentioned, I chose the Cucumber Cleansing Milk. I said that my pick was the Dewberry but on second try, this one got me hooked. I'm also excited to use my new body butter, the Wild Cherry :)


How about you? Any thoughts or comments? Please share.
