Heading to the beach may be the most
exciting part of summer. It is almost always part of the itinerary this season for most people. Others
prefer to give in to their adrenaline rush climbing that mountain slope or just about anything that gets
you that summer tan to fit in the crowd.
Did you know that spending extended
hours under the extreme summer sun can pose serious danger to your hair and scalp? The same UV rays
that brings damage to your skin without proper protection can equally hurt your hair and scalp.
Below are some of the problems your
hair can encounter during the season:
- Split-Ends - UV rays and extreme high temperature can take their toll on your strands. The heat drains the moisture of your hair out causing breakage.
- Double Trouble – Rebonded or permed hair needs extra attention as high temperature well as humidity disrupts the cuticle breaking some of the chemical bonds that keep the hair straight or curls and roughing up the cuticle, taking away shine and smoothness.
- Scalp problem – Scalp may also get sun-burned if you don’t use cover-ups for your head.
- Grease problem – Summer sun and humidity can bring extra grease on your hair, leaving it vulnerable to damage.
- Chlorine Stress – Swimming in the pool subjects your hair to chlorine. The outer layers of the cuticle of the hair opens up when you swim and chlorinated water seeps into the center of the hair thus making your hair more brittle.
- Excessive Salt Water – Salt water can cause the same damage as chlorinated ones. Salt water dries on the hair it creates a high-saline solution which can build up and cause hair to feel dry, weighed down and hard to manage.
All these problem can be addressed by
keeping your hair clean and showered after each activities. Take vitamin supplements that benefits you
hair such as Vitamin C and Biotin. Getting your hair pampered will also give respite to the sun and
chemical abuse.
Novuhair, nature’s answer to hair
loss is composed of 19 Natural ingredients with some of the known medicinal plants such as Ginger,
Pennywort and Ginseng blended with natural essences of rosemary and peppermint.
Novuhair nourishes the scalp and hair
by increasing the flow of nutrients and improving blood circulation to the scalp which is very
important after subjecting your hair from all your summer activities. Novuhair also helps hydrate
the scalp, maintain the hair’s natural luster and prevent early hair graying, hair dryness and itching.

Right From The Start” kicks off last April 21 - 23, 2017 (Friday to
Sunday) from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM at Megatrade Hall 1, SM Megamall,
Mandaluyong City.
The first ever KIDS
FAIR 2017: “Bright!
Right From The Start” is an
event
that sets an environment of learning, discovery, and fun for kids
with various activities that could help them improve their creative
and thinking skills. From the moment they set foot in the fair, the
fun begins – filled with delightful servings of games that
stimulate creativity, sportsmanship, and problem-solving skills.
Kids played and won prizes at
our game booths; listened to book reading sessions
or
discovered new books to take home; tried an art craft session and
bring out the artist within them; join several exciting workshops
that enhances skills and imagination; and explored a bounty of booths
from toys, books and sports – to fashion and candies. But wait –
this chock-full of fun fair is not just for kids.
Moms, dads, grandparents, and
guardians were definitely in the mix – it’s a family affair. KIDS
FAIR actively involves the whole family by helping them learn to
provide the proper learning path so kids get the necessary motivation
and guidance, a solid foundation that propels them to a better future
with careers that give them purpose and a lifestyle of holistic
well-being.
Also, celebrities and
influencers like “Baeby Baste” of GMA 7; Mommy Vlogger, Ms. Isha
Borromeo and other special guests joined this fun-filled event.
A
healthy mind needs a healthy body, so the Doctors were in at the
KID’S FAIR too. Parents and their kids tried
the “Left-brain, Right-brain Dominance Assessment” and find out
if their child is either analytical or creative – or maybe even
both – an expert in child psychology was there to guide them.
KID’S FAIR aims to promote
proper childhood development that fosters joy and harmony at home and
in school. We believe that happy, optimistic children are the product
of happy, optimistic homes.

Summertime is officially here! There is no other way we can think of to get into the groove of things than with the country’s number 1 tuna, Century Tuna, as it presents three “My Recipe to Sexy” dishes from three of the fittest and sexiest actors today, each one with his own distinct handsome looks, unique talents, and personalities!
We all know Century Tuna as the choice of health and fitness buffs, but it is also the favorite of many foodies out there as it’s a great, delicious addition to any dish. So why not have three of the most popular male actors share their favorite, easy-to-prepare and oh-so delicious Century Tuna recipes?
“Like Gerald, Mateo and Paulo, Century Tuna is very versatile,” relates Greg Banzon, Century Pacific Food, Inc. VP & General Manager. ”You can use it in different dishes, allowing you to be creative in creating your own recipe to sexy!”
First, there’s Gerald Anderson. After becoming the Third Big Placer in the first season of Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition in 2006, and after a string of television appearances, movie roles, and as part of a popular love team, Gerald proved his acting worth in the gritty, acclaimed film On The Job.
Next, there’s Matteo Guidicelli. Following a decorated stint in the fast lane as a karting racer garnering numerous trophies, Matteo entered showbiz in earnest, attending drama and performing arts school in the United States to further hone his craft. On top of that, he also released his first self-titled album in 2016!
And then of course there’s Paulo Avelino. Considered in the industry as “The Prince of Teleseryes”, Paulo has starred in a number of outstanding indie movie releases, among them Sayaw ng Dalawang Kaliwang Paa which earned for him the Best Actor nod from the prestigious Gawad Urian.
So what brings these 3 fit and sexy gentlemen together this scorching summer, you ask? They’re the latest faces – and hot bods – in the Century Tuna’s newest summer TVC, one that spells fun and fitness by way of its “My Recipe to Sexy” campaign! For those who’ve not seen the ad which is now airing on primetime TV, it features the trio as “hot cooks” as they respectively present their favorite recipes to a sexy, healthy bod: Tuna Egg Salad Sandwich ala Matteo; Tuna Pancit Canton ala Paulo; and Tuna Silog ala Gerald. All nutritious, delicious, and most of all easy to prepare!
“Breakfast for me is very important,” Gerald shares. “And I wanted a dish that’s a healthier take on the typical Pinoy breakfast so I came up with this super delicious Tuna Silog. “
“I’m always on the go,” Matteo reveals. “I love having a lean sandwich because it’s easy to prepare. Just like my Tuna Egg Salad Sandwich on wheat bread which is healthy yet very satisfying!”
“Tuna Pancit Canton is the ultimate, yummy comfort food – something you can make in a jiffy!” Paulo declares.
In other words, as summer equals frolic and fun under the sun, it doesn’t mean you have to deprive yourself just to stay fit and sexy. Thanks to Century Tuna, which is lean and adaptable, you can easily prepare and enjoy a myriad of irresistible meals. And if you can have these hot cooks as fitsperation, even better!
And so goes the question…this summer…what is your recipe to sexy?
