Eu'Genia Shea: More Than Butter, A Way To Empower Women

Friday, April 14, 2017




We all have our own way of taking care of ourselves, but there's always some really good regimen we can do for skin, hair and just about any part of our extremities that can make it all better. I've been reflecting on it all day while in the bath tub. Men and women have seen the remarkable benefits of using skin care butters as it alleviates the problem of dry skin, hair, wrinkles, cracked lips, stretch marks, cracked heels and nails. I'm taking There is certainly nothing wrong with skin care butters like cocoa, but when you're looking for the ultimate nourishing and natural cream, shea butter is one of the finest products known to man. Packed with numerous antioxidants and vitamins like A and E, shea butter is very beneficial to the hair and skin. It takes care of everything from head to toe which would be beneficial for the entire family.

Unfortunately, not all shea butters are created equal. From source to methods, it really is different especially on how they extract the precious shea oil from shea nuts.

Luckily, the world has the Eu'Genia Shea company. It's a family run business with roots in Ghana and America. Mother and daughter embrace the generations and a long tradition of shea butter knowledge. They have long seen the superiority of raw, unrefined Ghanaian shea butter.

Harvard graduate Naa-Sakle Akuete launched the Eu'Genia brand in 2014, naming the shea butter line after her mother. In fact, Ms. Eu'Genia is the former president of the Global Shea Alliance, which includes some 400 members from 31 countries. In addition, Akuete's grandmother was a well-known mid-wife who used rich shea butter in her practice for years. Shea is healing, very nourishing and known for reducing stretch marks.

Eu'Genia Shea is a wonderful business filled with pride, self-empowerment and exceptional Ghanaian shea butter imported to America. The company's headquarters are based in Brooklyn, New York, and the gorgeous variety of shea butter products can be purchased through e-commerce at their website https://www.eugeniashea.com/. The luxurious shea butters are sold in three strengths, including Everyday Shea Butter, Pregnancy Strength Shea Butter and Dermatological Strength Shea Butter. Each butter comes filled in colorful tin containers and can also be purchased through a monthly subscription if desired.

Eu'Genia Shea butters are also in a quality class of their own. The brand uses at least 95% shea content, while their competitors use less than 25% shea. Another aspect that allows the Eu'Genia Shea company to stand out is the mission behind the brand and the compassion that goes with it. Akuete and her loved ones are strong on family values and social responsibility and have labored hard to ensure that rural Ghanaian women workers receive benefits and proper job security and employment opportunities.

Eu'Genia Shea has since established a co-op of female pickers in northern Ghana that provides sustainable wages and training to their employees. The family run enterprise also donates 15% of their profits back to the co-op in the form of an education fund.

It's an amazing way for Akuete to give back to her country, she says and to introduce people in America to the magical, natural goodness that shea butter has to offer.

That's just remarkable.

New Nivea Men Products for Sensitive Skin

Friday, August 19, 2016



Hi there! I'm John. No, you're not looking at a Gorilla, you're not looking at a Chimpanzee either. That's me growing 2 days worth of facial hair. It's genes, and I grew up having this since I was in college. At first it was actually cool, you learn to live with it. How did that happen? I don't know. To tell you honestly, it calls for a regimen that you need to follow almost every other day... otherwise people will start to suddenly give you bananas randomly out on the streets, wherever you are.

Funny I know, but it's a struggle. You won't look presentable when you need to. It's so fast sometimes that you can't keep up. You need products that would be able to take care of your skin too because underneath all that fur LOL, still is your skin!



These days, you can't just use soap and water when you're shaving. You'll easily get those nicks, cuts and bumps when you don't take this seriously. For sensitive skin, Nivea Men has come out with a line that's got 0% alcohol so you won't get that stinging feeling when you do shave. That's good news for those who hate that burning feeling. We don't need to suffer! The Nivea Men Cooling Shaving Gel has just got the right amount of coldness on the skin, like a winter breeze, soft not harsh.


One rule to keep your skin the way it is right now, is moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. If you don't follow this, you're bound to get your skin damaged, be rough, and you'll look old. You're still young but you'll look like a raisin, we wouldn't want that to happen do we? Nivea Men's Cooling Moisturizer is just going to make you feel refreshed, not sticky, a thing that should have been happening since Day 1. This is new, developed for men, so why not use it instead of ones that are primarily designed for women in general. Makes sense? I thought so.


Before going to bed, never use anything harsh on your skin but remember to always clean it up with newly formulated Nivea Men Face Wash. This isn't soap, so you don't complicate the chemical components of your skin, nor does it dry out. You still have to have natural oils there but not the dirty kind. Don't even think of sleeping with cosmetics on, even powder, it'll just clog your pores and make things worse. Imagine a zit living under your beard or mustache, that will be one painful shave pretty soon.

Now you have something to look forward to when you go shopping at Watsons or retail stores nationwide. Men should have Nivea Men products, sensitive ones included. You deserve to shave and look good right?!

Watsons Celebrates Men's Grooming Month

Tuesday, June 07, 2016




Hey sports fans! We had the chance to visit the Watson's store in Podium this afternoon to see what's new. They're celebrating Men's Grooming Month. I am a little tired of brands dedicating a small part of their store for Men when almost everything is available for women. This time, Watsons knows how much grooming is an integral part of the daily lives of men like you and me. They know how to take care of you, it's simple, and it doesn't take rocket science. They're making a chance inside their stores so they can cater to what men essentially need and they're not joking, they're giving you their MANDATED products, to keep that good looking you stay that way longer.



They're dedicating a whole wall in this instance. Now there's no more excuse for you to enter WATSONS and feel all girly because you won't lose macho points inside the store. They've got the basics covered and put it in 4 sections namely SHAVE (for all those shaving gears, cartridges), CLEANSE (so you keep your face clean and pollution free), MOISTURIZE (so skin stays soft, smooth, well hydrated), and PROTECT (so it remains that way, protected from the harmful rays of the sun and the elements too). Unlike women, men usually just grab and go so putting them in one place just makes a lot of sense.


Oh and if you're excited as I am, start with these three things that are offered on 50% off. The Gillette Mach 3 is now at Php 147, the Nivea Men Oil Control at Php 59.50 and the Safeguard Men Body Wash is only Php 99.00. This is not a joke, I bought 2 of those Safeguard Men Body Wash because I really use it. I bought the shave for my Dad and the Nivea for my brother who's a little vain in that department.


There are other cute things I found inside WATSONS that are worthy to mention, look at this cute MOLY COW Nebulizer. For Asthmatic people like me, this might be a good thing to have at home when there are emergencies. I also eat a lot of seafood these days and this might cure my allergies if I get asphyxiated.

I also have been too tired recently, so this Milk Smoothing and Moisturizing COW Facial Mask might be a good thing to have while resting. I'm using it right now as I'm writing this article hahahah!
For those who don't have time to go to BENCH like me, (sorry I'm very busy covering events!) I usually get a lot of my body spray essentials at WATSONS too. Grab your favorite Bench Eight and Bench Atlantis sprays and reminisce your highschool days. Oh those stories, I'm sure you've got a lot of them!
WATSONS has their own pharmacy, with professionals giving you some sound advice for over the counter medicine and generic ones. MJ on the photo was a little sick so he bought things that would make him better, it's easy here.

Go visit WATSONS stores today and see for yourself how they take care of MEN too!
Super nice people also came to join in the fun for WATSONS MEN. On the photo is radio superstar and good looking jock Gino Quillamor, Model and Actor Victor Basa, plus Blogger Influencer AJ Dee. Super humble guys! :D
Here's a video of the event earlier!



Hurry and find Men's grooming products, the essentials all in one place. It's going to be easy when you shop in WATSONS!

Summer's Not Over with Nivea Sun Care Products!

Saturday, May 23, 2015


If you haven't been out of your house that much, you still  have a few weeks to enjoy the sun. Putting your feet into the sand, lying down on a hammock while being served a cold pinacolada with an umbrella on top just looks perfect on any beach. We deserve to be pampered every once in a while, but I do worry a lot about the damage that the sun brings on our skin. I take this threat seriously because sun damage would make you look old, even make you sick if you don't believe me.


Nivea Sun


Well, there's some really good news I'd like to tell you. There's Nivea Sun to take care of your skin. It's a line of products by global brand Nivea that's dedicated to protect, refresh, hydrate, even give you a tan on some of their products. Different days, different needs, so I did the next best thing to make sure I get protected perfectly when it's hot outside. I actually tried them all in a span of 1 week, and here's a rundown on how they fared.

Nivea Sun


This is Nivea Sun Moisturizing Immediate Sun Protection Collagen Protect. If you can see, all their bottles have SPF labels on them indicating the amount of protection you get from product. It smells quite like liquid baby powder and not too strong. I don't like the other brands that smell like chemicals and doesn't even get you enough protection as you need it. It also disappears quite fast after application, meaning it's quickly absorbed by the skin. It's not greasy at all and it assures your protection from UVA/UVB rays, of which too much of it will hasten genetic mutation. If that happens, you get skin cancer. That's not a good thing. If you're out for a swim, they recommend to re-apply after a dip, or after you wipe off with a towel. I would have loved to put my swimming photos on this part, but I'm sure you're not ready for that. #UMAY haha.

Nivea Sun


This one smells a little stronger than the one in the blue bottle. This is the Nivea Sun Whitening Immediate Sun Protection Collagen Protect. It's got the same SPF content, but it's got more active whitening ingredients. So just imagine, you're not just protecting yourself from the sun when you put this on your skin, you get the moisturizer's effect plus it'll make your complexion whiter. It's like hitting three birds with one stone. You're not really protected if you're just inside the home, UVA rays can penetrate through clouds and glass. Don't trust those windows, you really can't be too sure. Get your dose of Vitamin D when it's safe, but not to the point of putting yourself out there in danger.   

Nivea SunNivea Sun


This one's pretty special. This is the Nivea Sun Protect and Bronze. I guess the lower SPF would hasten you to get enough of that sunlight and make melanin production a lot faster, thanks to the pro melanin plant extract on this product. You would need to apply significantly well so you still get the protection you need though, you must remember that. If you want that caramel colored skin, this would fit you nicely. You must always take note that if you spend a lot of time under the sun, you are prone to sunburn. Aside from that, over exposure can hasten skin damage and these products can get you the protection you need when it matters.

Nivea Sun


For those who would prefer an even lighter regimen if you're under the sun, the Nivea Sun Protect and Light Feel is super. It's a refreshing invisible sun mist so it's not like the lotion types to begin with. Although I don't feel greasy with the earlier bottles, this one really presented a difference. I guess you can call this the modern version of sunscreen lotions. It smells so nice too. A bottle can probably go for 6 full body applications. It really depends on where you want it covered. After coming out of the pool, or wiping yourself with a towel, just spray it on again to make sure you're covered. I know, no sunscreen can ever make sure we're 100% covered but you can do your best with these!

Nivea SunNivea Sun


If you don't like lugging around bottles when you're out of town, Nivea has got Nivea Sun Protect and Moisture or Nivea Sun Protect and White Creams that can get you sunscreen protection you need. It's easier to carry around, fits right in your bag's pocket but don't let the size fool you. The thing has SPF 50, so you get the protection you need in each application. You'll enjoy your vacation without any hassle, you won't smell like chemicals too. Having fun in the sun doesn't have to be too dangerous, just protect yourself with Nivea Sun products, sit back, relax and play more! You deserve this break, enjoy time with friends and family. Nivea Sun has got you covered!
