UNICEF Art Auction To Benefit Children

In celebration of the 20th year of National Children’s Month, UNICEF Philippines presents UNICEF Auction for Action, an online auction to benefit children in the Philippines and worldwide.

For the second time, this online auction brings together more than seventy pieces of work from admired artists in design, furniture, art and jewelry for a good cause. Curated and presented by UNICEF Special Advocate for Children Daphne Oseña Paez, the online auction is a product of UNICEF and Daphne’s collaboration to bring the world of art, furniture and design together with her advocacy on children.  “Whenever I go to the field with UNICEF, I am heartened to see that we are doing a lot to improve children’s lives all over the Philippines. But there is always more to do; that’s why I support UNICEF.” 

To celebrate the 20th year of Children’s Month this October – the only annual national celebration that puts children’s rights center stage for all Filipino children - the theme for this year’s auction is the right of children to play.  “Playing is a basic right of every child, and its importance to a child’s well-being and healthy development cannot be over-emphasized.   It also lends itself well as a theme for our premiere artists to work with,” adds Daphne.  

UNICEF’s Auction for Action offers art lovers and collectors from all over the Philippines, the chance to bid for high quality items at discounts starting at 40% off. Items such as the Bloom from designer Kenneth Cobonpue, Fly Up from artist Michael Cacnio and a golden strand of South Sea Pearls from Jewelmer will be offered from October 1-7 only. The highest bidders win the item on offer.

“Buy a beautiful item, and help children at the same time, what could be better? Many people don’t realize that UNICEF relies entirely on voluntary donations from individuals, companies and governments and the funds raised from the auction will go towards education, health and nutrition, protection and emergency programs for children who are the hardest to reach and most in need,” said UNICEF Country Representative Tomoo Hozumi.

Watch out and bid for one-of-a-kind pieces from notable Filipino artists and designers and help make a difference for children. UNICEF Auction for Action goes live at 6 p.m. on eBay Philippines on October 1. Visit www.unicef.ph for more details.

Contractubex - Helping You Move Into A New You

Truth: No one is spared from getting scarred.

No matter how poised we are, life throws us instances that make us fall and slip – even while in our sturdiest stilettos! The scars we earn from these experiences become constant reminders of past mistakes, or things to avoid. Yet in spite of the lesson behind it, a scar is a scar – a blemish, a flaw, an imperfection.

Are you really ok with having that scar forever?

Having that mark on your skin practically screams, “You are not perfect,” especially if you got your scar from an accident.  While there may be lessons to be learned from this type of scars, there is no sense in dwelling on the past. Worrying about the effects of old wounds can make you feel self-conscious and restricted. It may not seem like a big deal at first, but think about it: Will you always be confined to choosing long-sleeves over sleeveless tops, pants over shorts, or heaven forbid, a t-shirt over a bikini? Would you skip beach trips or cocktail parties just because you need to cover up? How long will you hide behind your scars?

 

Different types of scars:

 

Raised or hypertrophic scar – forms after the healing of the wound and is caused by overproduction of connective tissue fibers; tends to bulge and protrude above level of surrounding skin

Keloid – grows beyond the original wound edges;

It’s time to move on, girlfriend!

Don’t let your scars hold you back. Like a trusty girlfriend, you need something to help you get out of that rut and back on track. Contractubex is a clinically proven treatment that combines the triple action of Cepae Extract, Heparin and Allantoin to help reduce the appearance of these unsightly marks on your skin.

 

 

What sets Contractubex apart from other silicone-based scar treatments is that its ingredients help reduce inflammation and prevent excessive scar formation. Its water-soluble ointment base allows active ingredients to penetrate into deeper layers of the skin.

 

1.        Cepae Extract

 - obtained from onions

- has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effect

- reduces swelling and prevents excessive growth of connective tissue

 

2.    Heparin

        - loosens the tissue structure

        -has anti-inflammatory effect

        - hydrates scar tissue

 

3.       Allantoin

- encourages wound healing

- has a soothing effect

Contractubex comes in a gel form that makes for its easy application on the skin. Just rub Contractubex on the affected area 3-4 times a day or as prescribed by your doctor.  Results may be seen after at least 3 months of use. You’ll know that Contractubex is working when you notice a reduction in redness, relief of tension and less itching on the scar area. Contractubex works best when applied as soon as the wound has closed and when the scar is still fresh.

 

Remember, patience is key! Scars take time to heal, but your consistent application of Contractubex will pay off in the end. Soon, you’ll be free from all those unwanted scars of the past, and on your way to a more confident, flawless and happier you! Don’t let those scars keep you from living life to the fullest. Move on and move forward – with Contractubex!

Chef Sau del Rosario recommends Titania’s Made for Men

Titania’s Made for Men line puts nail care and grooming in the domain of men who take themselves seriously.

 

Most men would admit that their idea of nail-care is limited to the requisite weekly trimming. But for men whose lifestyles require them to work with their hands day in and day out, keeping their nails neat and tidy is a reflection of personal hygiene and professionalism.

Titania, the German brand of high-quality nail, hand and feet care products, addresses this need through its Made for Men line – a suite of nail-care and grooming tools made especially for men. The products in the lineup feature masculine design and unique details, such as an ergonomic shape and Soft Touch coating for anti-slip and precise cutting. Among them are the Softtouch Sapphire Nail, Softtouch Cuticle Nipper, Softtouch Nail Clipper, and a Manicure Set with 4 instruments (tweezer, nail cutter, cuticle nipper and nail file).

 

 

Titania also recognizes an individual who represents this “handy” lifestyle in the person of celebrity Chef Sau del Rosario, who is now the Made for Men line’s brand ambassador. Chef Sau knows too well how important grooming is to his fruitful career. The French-trained chef has worked in restaurants and kitchens of noted hotels all over the world.  Locally, he has had a hand at the success of such restaurants as M Café, Chelsea, Madison Grill, Le Bistro Vert, Toro and his very own Villa Cafe.

“I work with my hands a lot as a chef and I can very well say they’re the most important tools of my trade. I have to make it a point that my nails are neat, tidy, and cared for as well, not only to be able to cook hygienically, but also to present myself well professionally,” says Chef Sau. “Titania’s Made for Men line ensures that my nails are always in excellent condition,” he adds.
