As attractive as they look like in a pot, aloe vera plants have been hailed as a natural ingredient with many positive skin benefits for thousands of years. Aloe vera leaves are full of gel-like texture that are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fatty acids.
Aloe Vera also contains enzymes that repair dead skin cells, while moisturizing the skin. It is rich in vitamins C and E which are nutrients that improve the skin's elasticity, for a firmer and youthful look.
Back in 2018, the rise of aloe vera gel tubs have taken over the Philippine beauty community. Aloe vera’s ability to soothe and provide hydration to the skin, boosted its popularity in the ever-humid country. And now aloe vera is proving to be an effective ingredient not only for the skin care world, but also the hair care industry.
Experience Plant Powered Showers with the Benefits of Aloe Vera
In its raw form, aloe vera can be used as a mild cleansing agent that gets rid of dirt and product build-up, while leaving hair smooth and with more volume. But if you're not into rubbing plant leaves on your hair, you can also experience #PlantPowerInEveryShower with Herbal Essences bio:renew blend shampoos that contain real aloe vera, kelp, and histidine. It hydrates each strand to provide frizz control, adds shine, and nourishes dry hair — making hair soft, manageable, and smelling great.
Herbal Essences bio:renew shampoos are crafted with an amino acid called histidine, which acts as superfood for the hair trapping and neutralizing the elements that can cause damage in the hair — such as pollution, sun exposure, and even shower water. With the power of aloe vera, and other plant based ingredients, Herbal Essences bio:renew shampoos are pH-balanced and free of parabens, silicone, and colorants which make it color-safe to use for color-treated hair to bring out it’s natural beauty.

Five Taiwan Excellence Award winners demonstrated their groundbreaking and state-of-the-art products for the dental materials and products industry during a virtual product launch called “Dentistry of Excellence” that took place recently.
The five Taiwan Excellence Award winners were EPED’s real-time imaging system, Saturn Imaging’s all-in-one digital solution for implantation, Dentmate’s innovative LED light solution for dentistry, Young Optics’ 3D printer with outstanding optical technology, and DHEF’s Endodontic Handpiece and dental imaging scanner. The event was jointly organized by the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), Taiwan’s foremost trade promotion body, and the Bureau of Foreign Trade, Ministry of Economic Affairs.
According to the latest report by the World Health Organization (WHO), 30 percent of elderly people at age 65 and up in the world are toothless; thus, the demand for oral care products will continue to increase.
It is estimated that the global dental implant market demand will reach its peak in 2026, where business opportunities are expected to reach about US$570 billion. Dental materials made in Taiwan cover 94 percent of the entire global dentistry product line, and the output value is expected to reach US$10 billion by 2025. These figures clearly show the vaunted manufacturing power and might of Taiwan in this growing industry.
“The existing medical environment, advanced health insurance data system and electronic and automated mechanical integration technology are the great assets in this field. Over the past decade, products from Taiwan have shown the world its innovative and pioneering power and technological advancements in the dental industry.” said Leonor Lin, President and CEO of TAITRA, at this online product launch campaign.
As a trusted world partner, Taiwan Excellence selected products that best represent the image of Taiwan’s dental material and product industry.
During the product launch, the award-winning and leading company in the field of minimally invasive surgery EPED presented IRIS and SimEx, which provides super flexible and exceptionally customized solutions in dental training as well as dental impressions and dental curriculum. Saturn Imaging, which specializes in 3D diagnosis and implant planning software, on the other hand, showcased its ImplantMax that provides an all-in-one solution for guided implantology, ranging from digital treatment planning, surgical guide fabrication, to surgical guide verification. The all-in-one approach streamlines guided implantology and greatly increases the throughput of digital technology in implantation practice.
Dentmate, a top dental equipment provider, for its part, offered its Dental Curing Light and Headlight that is not only lightweight but also easy to operate. Meanwhile, Young Optics, which is engaged in research, design, manufacture and sales of optical components, presented its Digital Light Processing 3D Printer that offers stable printing materials with constant parameters where 12 models can be printed within 3 hours to meet dentists’ needs more efficiently. Finally, DHEF, one of Taiwan’s leading digital dental equipment makers, presented the Digirex PSP Scanner that packs a powerful image processing system into a small machine, and its Endomax Brite that helps improve visibility and safety for root canal treatments.
All of these innovative and reliable products provide better care for users and enable long-term care facilities in order to save time, costs and improve services. Taiwanese companies are also confident in providing the best products for global users to fulfill their unique and discriminating demand.
The last activity of Taiwan Excellence Healthcare Train series, the “Taiwan - ASEAN Medical Device and Innovation Forum,” will be held on October 16, 2020 where participating companies will share Taiwan’s latest medical technologies.

Washing hands has never been so crucial. With the pandemic spreading like wildfire, the government always reminds us to take extra precaution. Twenty seconds is all it takes to make sure all the germs and bacteria are effectively rinsed off. However, water can not accomplish the task alone. Soap and water is more effective than the alcohol-based "hand sanitizers" because the proteins and fats in food tend to reduce alcohol's germ-killing power.
The role of soap in curbing the Covid19 spread is taking centerstage. It became such a necessity that supermarket shelves has run out of it for sometime. The good old trusty Safeguard is always in my grocery list. Good thing they thought about limiting the amount of purchase for each customer. Now, buying one is made even easier thru e-commerce websites like Shopee. For us Filipinos, Safeguard is a brand we trust for the longest time when it comes to soap.
Safeguard Pure White Liquid Hand Soap (225mL) + 2 Refills (420mL)
This package comes with two 240ml refills. The convenience of using liquid soap when you have children or are in a public toilet is certainly clear as it's more hygienic. It reduces the exchange of germs between users as no one touches the soap. With fancy dispensers it's easy to use and refill. Unlike a soap bar, liquid soap doesn't get mushy. Currently at P235, that's 22% off!
Safeguard Lemon Fresh Liquid Hand Soap (225mL) + 2 Refills (200mL)
Scent of lemons has a calming feeling and will keep you smelling fresh. Value refill packs included. Currently at P159, that's 22% off!
Safeguard Pure White Foaming Hand Soap Bottle (225mL) + Refill (200mL)
Studies have shown that when people wash their hands with foaming hand soap they use 16 percent less water per wash versus those using liquid soap. Priced at P228.
Safeguard Foaming Hand Soap Lemon (225mL) Bottle + Refill (200mL)
Water usage can be reduced by up to 45 percent when hands are not wet prior to lathering, as the foam soap allows for lather without additional water. Plus, this variant comes in lemon which will make your hands smell great. Currently at P194, that's 15% off from the regular price of P228!

Tanauan, Batangas—October 9,2020—Honda Philippines, Inc.(HPI), the no.1 motorcycle manufacturer in the country, announced today its continuation as the main sponsor the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA), one of the biggest professional basketball leagues in Asia, this 2020 season.
HPI has been a main sponsor for the PBA since 2018, bringing further the competitive and action-packed spirit that the company is known for.
Since its postponement last March due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the PBA finally announced the Philippine Cup resumption, slated this October 11. This move was approved by the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) on Emerging Infectious Diseases as it released a provisional approval for the league's "bubble" plans in Quest Hotel in Pampanga.
The league is also considering the NBA's "bubble concept," where the teams will stay at designated areas in the Hotel while playing venues will be assigned elsewhere. It will also have doubleheader games every day at the Angeles University Foundation Gym with the first game starting at 4pm then hold disinfection measures at 6pm, before starting the second game at 7pm.
HPI President Susumu Mitsuishi said that HPI is proactive in supporting these fun and exciting basketball tournaments as a company known for its innovative spirit.
"As a basketball-loving nation, Filipinos consider this sport as a way of inspiring and nurturing sportsmanship and companionship. We see the value of partnering with PBA, especially that we aim to become part of improving the quality of life of every Filipino. By doing so, we also support Filipino talents and their love for sports," Mitsuishi added.
Through this partnership, HPI continues to provide the joy of mobility for its customers. It is also part of its ONE DREAM campaign, which aims to provide Honda Motorcycles as tools in achieving Filipino's dream and unite all motorcycle riders through various fun-filled activities.
Previously, HPI has also supported and sponsored the local telecast of the National Basketball Association (NBA), the world's most prestigious basketball league, since it resumed its 74th season last August 21.

Grundfos SmArt Serv app promises prompt support and reduced downtime for pumps and system repairs |
MANILA, 9 October 2020: Basic necessities and services must be within everyone’s reach, that is why the Philippines continues to push for digital transformation amid the pandemic. The digital shift is also encouraged for companies to stay resilient, innovative and to respond better to the needs of their customers. As water and sanitation services are crucial in the Philippines, the public and private sectors must leverage intelligent digital technologies that can provide sustainable water supply and improved sanitation for all.
Aligned with the Philippines’ renewed focus on digitalization, Grundfos Philippines, a global leader in advanced pump solutions and water technologies, has launched its SmArt Serv mobile app, an innovative way to help address critical pumping infrastructure in the country. SmArt Serv is a cloud-based mobile service app that conveniently enables customers to get prompt and efficient service support for any Grundfos product, reducing the overall service process and minimizing the downtime on any pump or system.
“This pandemic has drastically changed how governments and businesses are operating, and one of the sought-after strategies is to digitalize operations of critical infrastructure. As the Philippines rapidly adopts digital transformation, consumers too are adopting technology to help improve the way their infrastructure is operated. The SmArt Serv app is the result of listening to our customers and through this app we will provide next-generation user experience, which is personalized, interconnected, fast and seamless,” said Nicolai Thrane, Regional Service Director, Grundfos Asia Pacific Region.
The SmArt Serv app will provide another option of getting service support besides the traditional phone and email queries. Through the app, the customer can contact Grundfos or locate the nearest service provider, fill in the details of the complaint or request, attach a picture of the pump or system and raise a service request.
The app also allows easy tracking of request or complaint status or escalate late response to another service partner, if necessary. The service provider will provide remote assistance for digital pumps, while a service engineer will be deployed on site to fix the problems for other pumps. To continuously improve the user-experience, the app also allows customers to provide feedback, leave ratings, and even get a service report and quotation for spare parts; making it a comprehensive and must-have tool.
“We take pride in building pumps and systems of outstanding quality and we want to complement this with truly-responsive customer service. Customer satisfaction is important to us at Grundfos and we hope to deliver better services, achieve higher service performance and provide additional support to our customers through this app,” added Nicolai Thrane.
Smart Serv is available and free to download on iOS, Android and can also be installed on Windows and desktop computers.
