Last Wednesday, April 28, 2010, I attended an intimate event with the beautiful ladies of Elianto Philippines, together with 5 other beauty and lifestyle bloggers at Kimono Ken at SM North Edsa. It was fun chatting (I mostly listened) and hanging out with these sweet ladies. 🙂
As a mom, I know so well how easy it is to take ourselves for granted given all the overwhelming tasks we have to take care of. While motherhood, no doubt, brings about such wonderful, priceless moments, it can get pretty crazy sometimes. It’s not all bright and shiny everyday, to say the least. This is especially true if you choose to be a hands-on mom. The dynamics of motherhood is immense and the natural default could easily be such that you have everything taken cared of except yourself.
While the essential is still a person’s soul, I believe a mother does not cease to be a woman even if motherhood has come. Your priorities might have changed and for a while after giving birth, it will only be natural to undergo a period of adjustment. But the important thing is to strike a balance as you device ways to prioritize all the ongoings of your life.
I personally have come to love Elianto products, specifically their nail line. Â I have been using it for years now. Truth be told, I have practically stashed away all my other pricier brands, in favor of Elianto. I was pleased as I found out from attending the event that Elianto has more to offer than just their nail line. Their make up products are actually made from the finest of natural ingredients, which I have been always partial toward. In time for Mother’s day, Elianto currently has Mother’s Day Gift Sets.

After the sumptuous meal at Kimono Ken, the beautiful Elianto girls tooks us beauty products shopping over at The Elianto shop right across the restaurant.  There were a whole lot of great finds and it wasn’t until we realized the mall was about to close that we have been there a while.  Here is my loot. Watch out for my review I’m having live over at my beauty blog,  KikayCorner.net. 😉
