PRESS RELEASE

Global smartphone brand Vivo has revealed its all-new sleek and stylish V9 flagship unit at the City of Dreams Manila in a summer-themed unveiling that was attended by over 200 members of the press and other guests.

Vivo welcomed its guests late Thursday afternoon at the Wave, a contemporary poolside deck, restaurant, and bar so they can experience the V9 and take selfies and photos with the sunset as their backdrop. Vivo then picked one lucky and creative photo posted on Instagram to win a V9 unit.

Vivo executives led by Brand Director Annie Lim answered some of the questions of the media during the V9 press launch.

The program continued at the City of Dreams Grand Ballroom with Myx VJ Ai dela Cruz as the host. They were formally welcomed by Vivo Brand Director Annie Lim who recapped the smartphone company’s feats in the Philippines. Since it entered the Philippine market in 2016, Vivo has been steadily rising to become the country’s top three brand with over 5,200 stores and 1.5 million users nationwide.

Vivo’s Jomari Morales followed Lim’s remarks by presenting all the goods on the V9. She highlighted the Vivo V9’s 90% screen-to-body ratio, the 24-megapixel selfie camera and 16MP+5MP dual read camera, and the AI-powered photography for a “perfect view” and a “perfect shot.”

Morales also presented the Vivo V9’s improved game mode that would enable users to take calls or open other apps without pausing the gaming applications or play without any interruptions.

After her presentation, Vivo’s Junior Brand Manager Christian Jocson revealed that anyone can enjoy a V9 for a “perfect” price of Php17,990 with pre-orders beginning on March 26 until April 2.

Lim, Morales, Jocson, and Xian Gana from Vivo then answered the media’s questions during the Q&A. Their exchanges were focused on the Vivo’s plans in the Philippines and the V9’s capabilities.

Vivo Brand Director Annie Lim acknowledged the smartphone brand’s partners, Ayala Malls and SM Supermalls, during the launch of the V9.

Vivo partners, Ayala Malls and SM Supermalls, were also recognized during the event during the ceremonial exchange of tokens. Lim handed the malls’ representatives with a Little V doll.

Fresh faces of Vivo

Vivo also welcomed its newest endorsers, up-and-coming actors Edward Barber and Ivan Dorschner.

Barber is the onscreen partner of young actress Maymay Entrata who also joined the event. Entrata was the first who joined Vivo in September 2017 during the launch of the V7+. His endorsement deal with Vivo is something MayWard fans have been patiently waiting for since the pair already worked together for the smartphone brand during their first Making Mega shoot in Germany last year.

Dorschner, meanwhile, charmed the press with his good looks and charisma. He was one of Kuya’s guests in Pinoy Big Brother in 2010. Since then, he became one of GMA Network’s top leading men after starring alongside young actress and fellow Vivo endorser Barbie Forteza in the primetime series “Meant To Be.”

Aside from the launch of the new flagship smartphone V9,Vivo also introduced its newest endorsers, Ivan Dorschner and Edward Barber.

Barber, Entrata, and Dorschner also picked three lucky winners of the Vivo V9 during the raffle. They also joined the Vivo executives for a toast for the V9. Also with them onstage were other Vivo endorsers young pop soul singer Sassa Dagdag, acoustic singer-songwriter TJ Monterde, and balladeer Jason James Dy who closed the night with their performances.

Self-care is not an easy feat to manage in today’s world where technology is a relentless 24/7 connection to high-pressure jobs. Entrepreneurs, business executives, and professionals alike juggle work commitments with their responsibilities to their families, spouses, and children. In those situations, it is the provider or family head’s well-being that is unintentionally sacrificed on the altar of time and obligations. He or she is simply too busy to develop a fitness program, or stick to a nutritious diet. As a result, they become overweight and their skin becomes vulnerable to the effects of pollution and stress.

This demanding regimen is the reason why SvelTi’s highly trained team of clinical specialists take the necessary time to sit down with each patient, learn their medical history and lifestyle, and prescribe an individual program that can help them reach their health and beauty goals.

Not surprisingly, many of the patients consult with the Centre in order to look fabulous and become more physically fit. According to Dr. Salazar, a first couple of sessions of their prescribed program does show visible results, such as a loss of one to two inches from a once bulging waistline, a reduction of five pounds from one’s weight without having to run a treadmill, and the elimination of pimples, blackheads, and wrinkles that had been festering on the face for months.

Dr. Salazar does urge the patient to continue with the program and complement it with a healthy lifestyle such as regular exercise and a nutritious diet. “That’s how they can sustain the first results,” she advises. “Attaining your desired physique, weight, and smoothness of skin is not a one-time thing, and will take commitment on their part. What’s encouraging about our treatments is that the patient is encouraged by the result and does the follow-up sessions. They come here happy and enthused, and not dragging their feet, because they know they will be healthier and look more attractive after the session.”

Dr. Salazar pauses then adds, “Unlike that old health slogan they used to throw at us, I believe that there can be gain even without pain. And it all starts with a firm decision to love yourself and fulfill your own self-care program.”

Those who want to try SvelTi’s unique and effective approach can avail of the various promos that they are offering this special anniversary month of September. To know more about SvelT’i’s treatments, please inquire at (02)332-7546 / 09188-SVELTI (783584) or visit the clinic at 5F South Insula Condominium #61 Timog Avenue, Quezon City from Mondays to Fridays from 9am-6pm and Saturdays from 8am-1pm.

The post IT’S ALL ABOUT LOVING YOURSELF THROUGH PROPER HEALTH CARE appeared first on JOEL JAWS ANDRADA.

Last year, I got Mom a bouquet of flowers for Mother’s Day. Thanks to my cousin, Ate Lala, a mother herself, for going through all the trouble of buying the flowers and hand carrying it to my Mom on my behalf.

Here is my Mom, all smiles, with her bouquet of flowers, on Mother’s Day in Baguio City in 2016.

Thanks, Mom, for being the mother that you are to me and my siblings. You single-handedly raised us.  I could not even begin to imagine how much trouble you had to go through to keep us alive and well. Thank you for all the love, discipline and sacrifices you wholeheartedly did for us. I know that I will not be able to thank you enough.

Have you thought of what to give your Mom, the woman behind the person you are today, this Mother’s Day yet?

Here are some suggestions:

1. A set of hankies that will bring back the memory of her wiping away her tears of happiness upon knowing that she is conceiving a little creature inside her womb. That’s you, of course;

2. A loose yet comfortable clothes that shall make her remember that preggy dress she wore during those exciting nine months of gestation;

3. A pillow that she could hug as tight as she embraced you after giving birth;

4. A brassiere for protection of the very bosom that fed you during infancy;

5. A bed that will remind her of your toddler years when you started to crawl and roll over it freely;

6. A pair of shoes, either high heels or flats, whichever catches her fancy, to remind her when you took your first walk;

7. A pair of flip-flops to bring back memories of those days of discipline through the proverbial “rule of slipper” while growing up;

8. A bling ring to show your deep appreciation of her just like when she never failed to recognize you with a pat on the back for a job well done. My Mom still does to this day.

Still have not made up your mind yet? How about a meaningful token that for sure will make a big difference? The NOVUHAIR 3-in-1 pack:

The NOVUHAIR 3-in-1 pack includes the topical scalp lotion, herbal shampoo and conditioner.

Spend a day of pampering with Mom on Mother’s day! Spray a liberal amount of NOVUHAIR Topical Scalp Lotion onto your mom’s scalp and massage it for five to ten minutes. This plain gesture of yours can melt her heart as it reminds her of the past when she used to do the same thing while you were still young, either as a trick to put you to sleep or a relief every time you get sick.

Treat her like a queen with that vibrant, bouncy and shiny “crowning glory”.

Head on to any Mercury Drug and other leading drugstores to get a dose of nature’s answer to hair loss.
