A Celebration of Love and Thanksgiving with AiAi and Gerald

Love was definitely in the air during the thanksgiving cum Christmas party given by AiAi delas Alas and Gerald Sibayan for their media friends last November 30 at Le Rêve in Quezon City.



The party, hosted by veteran columnist/writer Jun Nardo, started with a sumptuous lunch followed by a magic show participated in by the couple and some members of the press. Their romantic wedding prenup video was shown during the celebration. AiAi and Gerald gave short messages before they cut their wedding cake amidst the roaring cheers from the crowd urging them to kiss. They will tie the knot this December.

AiAi shared, “Ang saya ng pakiramdam na nakasama ko ang aking mga kaibigan sa isang masayang okasyon sa aking buhay. The party was really for them. It was my way of expressing my gratitude to them. Gusto ko rin i-share ang mga blessings ko with my media friends. Nandiyan sila sa simula pa lang ng aking career, noong single pa lang ako, at kasama ko pa rin sila hanggang ngayon sa panibagong yugto ng aking buhay. I believe in love and I believe na may forever sa pag-ibig.” 


The media friends left the party in high spirits, having enjoyed the parlor game and raffle draws plus lots of give-aways. 

AiAi has a new single titled Walang Pinipili featuring the rap group Ex-Battalion under GMA Records. The song is now available for downloading and streaming in iTunes and Spotify.

Celebrity ‘fitspirations’ pump up Golden Fiesta’s star-studded Heart Healthy Camp at BGC

The second leg of the Golden Fiesta Heart Healthy Camp with the power couple Solenn Heussaff and Nico Bolzico of the wildly popular ‘hubby vs. wifezilla’ videos.

Solenn and Nico took their “feud” to the Golden Fiesta Heart Healthy Camp Celebrity Edition as they led other stars and fitness enthusiasts in trying out various fitness routines at the Bonifacio Global City last Nov. 26, Sunday.



The celebrities were split into two groups—Team Solenn and Team Nico—as they engaged health buffs, competed in circuit training, and sweat it out with camp participants. 

The second leg of the free-admission Golden Fiesta Heart Healthy Camp was also be graced by former Philippine Azkals player Anton del Rosario and his fiancée, fashion designer royalty Sam Richelle; Miss Earth 2015 Angelia Ong; Mr. World Philippines 2016 Sam Ajdani; volleyball superstar Rachel Daquis; actress Maricar de Mesa; Miss World Philippines 2015 Hillarie Parungao; model-mom Angel Jones; singer-actress Ana Roces; and model June Macasaet.






Team Nico eventually emerged as winner, but Team Solenn did not give up without a fight. The celebrities tried out various workout activities like the Heart Pumps! Plyometric Box Jumps, Heart Skips! Low Hurdles, Heart Beats! Agility Ladders, Elastic Heart! Fitness Band, Heart Swing! Kettle Bells, and Heart Waves! Battle Ropes.



As early as 5 a.m., scores of young professionals who aspire to be heart-healthy trooped to the camp to interact with their celebrity fitspirations as they learned and enjoyed new fitness techniques—all for free.

Aside from joining various stations of workout activities manned by professional coaches and trainers, participants were also treated to a live cooking demo—using heart-healthy Golden Fiesta Canola Oil—by celebrity chef and fitness buff Jose Sarasola.


The chef-actor taught participants how to prepare simple but healthy recipes at home, like Golden Fiesta Lettuce Salad with Guyabano Vinaigrette, Golden Fiesta Bangus Back Fillet and Adobo Kangkong Duo, and Golden Fiesta Japanese Chicken Katsu in Curry Sauce. A food sampling follows.

“It’s not every day that we get a chance to train with our celebrity idols and fitspirations, not to mention jump-starting a new fitness regimen with them—for free. This is why we are so happy that our participants took this chance to sign up for the Golden Fiesta Heart Healthy Camp,” said Carl Constantino, category marketing manager at NutriAsia.

4-in-1 Dermairis Mask launches in Manila

We all strive for a healthy, glowing and younger looking skin. Happy skin is a reflection of a healthy mind and a healthy body. Many things cause our skin to age. Some things we cannot do anything about. 

How to get younger looking skin - Eat a healthy, well-balanced diet. Eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables may help prevent damage that leads to premature skin aging. Drink 8-10 glasses of water to keep your skin hydrated, exercise most days of the week, protect your skin from the sun every day, drink less alcohol, cleanse your skin gently.

Cleaning and moisturizing helps protect skin and keep it healthy; but banish regular soap, which can be drying for older skin. Instead, use a cleanser that gently washes without stripping skin of moisture. 



Hydrated, young-looking skin is now just a face mask away.

In order to get that flawless, younger looking skin you’ve always wanted, you can unmask the new you. Dermairis officially launched in the Philippines last November at a private venue in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig.

Among the first to experience the breakthrough skincare product were top print and online lifestyle media, who were treated to a night of luxurious pampering by JW Healthcare Philippines (JWHP), the local sales subsidiary of JW Group, a leading pharmaceutical company in Korea.


Glenda Arceno, JWHP’s General Manager, welcomed media guests and partners with a brief introduction of JWHP and JW Group. 



According to Arceno, JW has presence in more than 45 countries. Its headquarters is located in the Gangnam area of Seoul, South Korea. The holding company controls several business groups, manufacturing facilities, and research centers, one of which is JW CreaGene, the developer of Dermairis. 

Offering direct sales and marketing of JW products, JWHP has been in the country since August 2013. Dermairis, which follows a line of successful medical products such as pharmaceuticals, IV infusions, and antibiotics, marks JWHP’s expansion into the cosmeceutical space--and more innovative products are set to come. 

“JW Group’s founding spirit is anchored in our respect for life. This is what motivates us in dealing with our patients and in dealing with our customers,” Arceno said.

Arceno’s declaration echoes the earlier statement of Jinam Oh, Finance Head of JWHP: “JW Group, with its founding principle of Respect of Life, strives to supply high-quality healthcare and cosmeceutical products to patients and consumers globally.”

This commitment to beauty backed by science was evident at the launch party, where JWHP invited the glamorous dermatologist Dr. Crystal Roxas to talk about the importance of skincare.



“The skin is the largest organ of the body and it is the organ that is exposed to the external world,” Dr. Roxas said. “The skin reflects the general mental and physical well-being. It’s a sacrificial organ because when you’re stressed, the first sign is seen on your skin.”


She recommended the basic routine of regular cleansing, exfoliation, toning, moisturizing, and protection, and taught the audience how to perform each step properly.

After a string of exciting games and prizes, it was time to unveil the much-awaited 4-in-1 face mask as the room decked in pink and blue decor erupted in revelry. Soon after the confetti had dropped, the Dermairis Mask promotional video was also shown for the first time. 

Following the live music care of event host DJ Ana Ramsey of MOR 101.9, guests were treated to dinner, drinks, and a relaxing massage, the perfect way to cap a night of beauty and pampering. 

Dermairis Mask

Dermairis Facial Mask comes in pink and blue variants.


Two variants of the Dermairis Mask were launched. The Dermairis Blue consists of air pockets that contain nutrients, while the Dermairis Pink uses soft microfiber that is finer than a hair strand. 


The Dermairis Mask stands out from other face masks because it offers four skin benefits--moisturizing, anti-wrinkle, elasticity, and whitening--by using 10 main ingredients, including JW’s two proprietary technologies.




The patented JW-EGF (CTP-EGF) penetrates the skin 5x faster than other EGF, making the Dermairis Mask more efficient than the rest. Meanwhile, AMF is not destroyed by time and blocks moisture evaporation for 120 hours. It therefore works more effectively than NMF (Natural Moisturizing Factor) found in other face masks, which reduces skin moisture retention.

The other eight main ingredients are hyaluronic acid, ceramide, adenosine, acetyl tetrapeptide, astaxanthin, snail secretion filtrate, botanical extracts, and niacinamide.

The Dermairis Blue has a suggested retail price of P70, while the Dermairis Pink is offered at an SRP of P150. The masks are available at leading beauty and wellness counters, drugstores, and skin clinics nationwide.
