Reviews and Birthday

I am a believer and I am proud of it! Ilog Maria products really deliver. Since I am so susceptible to different illnesses, I opted to use their products as a substitute for taking different medications. At least this one is safe since it is made from natural honey.

Below are my feedbacks on the Ilog Maria products that I have already tried.

1. Virgin Honey- I’ve been a strong believer of honey’s benefits whether it be for beauty or health purposes. Other than using it on my face and hair, I also use it as a natural sweetener on my tea. Good thing about Ilog Maria’s virgin honey is that it comes in its purest form, unheated and unfiltered. So you are guaranteed that the freshness is sealed on its container. For those who work in the graveyard shift, it greatly helps because it feeds and heals our liver and can boost our energy. It can also cure asthma, flu, cuts, burns, fatigue, anemia and a lot of things.

Normally, I take a table spoon of this before breakfast (plus a dosage of bee propolis). When you do this regularly, it helps in cleaning your digestive tract.

2. Bee Propolis-they said this is the only powerful probiotic available in the country. A powerful antioxidant. When you say probiotic, what does it mean? Probiotics are good bacterias that promote good digestion and strengthen our immune system. When your have a weak immune system, you are prone to different illnesses, you get sick and viruses can attack you easily.

When you take the propolis, it may taste a little bit eeeky, not that much, can be likened to sipping a lambanog. Its because the propolis was made with aged organic coconut brandy. It is said to be effective in the abatement of rhinitis, tuberculosis, bronchitis, laryngitis, gingivitis (and other illnesses with “TIS” j/k!) also with ulcer and infection of the urinary tract, kidney and gall bladder.

Take about 1 ml or 25 to 30 drops of bee propolis, if possible with your virgin honey (if not available, with juice, water or milk)

Since it is also safe for children, those who are 1 yr and above can take the same dosage as that with the adult’s dosage. If you feel that you are about to get sick and you feel the symptoms of getting colds or fever, take the doses every hour.

3. Bee Pollen- this one really tastes kinda weird. I haven’t eaten a bird or chicken feeds, yet I think it kinda taste the same with bee pollen. But don’t mind the taste because it has great benefits. It is good as a multivitamin supplement and gives you energy. Did you know that it can also prevent prostate cancer for men? Uhuhhh. Convince now? I normally take this before meal.

4. Feminine Wash- I so love this product! Promise! It is also made from propolis gold so it makes it antifungal. It has this fresh feeling after you use it. It smells and looks like a glycerin soap. I think it is not available n liquid form yet. It is a must buy for every girls out there.

5. Propolis Cider Liniment- this is a great substitute for bengay. It soothes tired muscles and other aches and pains.

6. Propolis throat spray- I bring this in my bag everyday. If you feel like you have an itchy throat, spray it directly and you would witness that it eases the itchiness. It can also help prevent cough and colds. It also acts as a breath freshener and good for the gums.

7. Bamboo Charcoal and Bergamot Lime soap- I have this but I haven’t used it yet. Will post review after I’ve tried it. It claims to whiten skin and can beat common skin illnesses.

8. Rosemary Soap- I use this on my scalp during my days off. They said it relieves headaches and depression. Isn’t that cool?

Other products that I want to try soon are: the royal jelly, their milk and honey soap, their lip balm and of course their mosquito repellant. But I’ll be sure to stock on the honey, propolis and throat spray.
Bonus: I’ve included some of the pictures taken on my birthday.

I am happy :)



Happy Birthday to me and my father! It has been almost a month since i started blogging and I did it out of boredom. I use to update it like daily yet, its almost like a weekly thing now. I am just so sorry readers. I have a project to finish and need to do it on or before deadline.

For my birthday, hubby and I decided to ditch our laptops just for a day. But earlier, he has been convincing me to bring our laptops since a WiFi connection is available almost everywhere. But still, I was firm with it. No work for us.

Another year has passed, I grew a year older again and year after year, I never fail to reflect about my purpose in life. What is it really??? hahaha I often wonder if I was sent here on earth to bring happiness to people. We'll duh??? Atleast I think I brought happiness to my husband, my family and friends. :)

A day before my birthday, I was really so down. I think I am like this yearly but come my exact birthday, sudden magic happens. Everything turns out fine and beautiful. I had my birthday presents in advance from hubby...something that I like. He says I need to act like a lady now coz I am no longer a teenage girl. He would like to see less of me wearing shirts and rubber shoes.

I got sweet and beautiful presents from family and friends. Text, email messages and call from friends abroad and family, a call I never got to receive since I am not at my parent's place (from my tita in US, hope to talk to her soon doh and that call was much appreciated).

For the celebration, my brother bought 10 kilos worth of Tbone steaks of which hubby greatly demolished. He was enjoying it, such a carnivorous. He even has side comments that its actually his birthday not mine because he was having the time of his life just binging! My mom cooked great meal for us. I did not have a cake for my birthday( sad) but I had a huge 28 in pizza for a replacement. There are a lot of things that I should be thankful for. God is indeed so good. I am mostly thankful to people who remembered my birthday eventhough I specifically requested for my birthday not to be announced (via company bday corner email). Thank you thank you to all of you. You made me so happy. This kind of happiness makes me forget about my worries at work, really. :)

Some of my mini celebration pictures will be posted soon.

One of my birthday wish (when I get rich) is to buy lots of LV stuffs. I just love LV, seeing it on tv and prints makes me crave for it more. It can wait. I need to be patient. I also have another wish but I wont tell anyone (so embarrassing) hubby knows it.

This dress for LV designed by Richard Prince looks more like a nurse's uniform. Though,it would really look good and classy when worn by tall models.. Grrrrrrrr always them! Where is justice?

Chasing my dreams

Though I have already decided for blog name, my hubby still keeps on suggesting a catchy name for my blog. Just this afternoon, he was suggesting that I name it Chasing my dreams. I already told him that I have decided on SupahMeeh because I can't really promise that I will be writing often about my dreams. But for today, let's talk about my dreams. Daddy, this particular post is dedicated to you.

I have a lot of dreams, some are impossible, some are just so easy and some were already realized. A good example of a fulfilled dream is finding someone who would love me unconditionally. I am now a proud wife of the most caring, loving, handsome and thoughtful guy on earth. I can clearly recall how he courted me, hehehehe too personal to share it here but my close friends know about it.

Let's talk about my lifelong dreams:

1. I wanted to be known as an International Karate Athlete. I first dreamed of becoming one when I saw Bea Lucero winning a bronze medal in 1992 Olympics. I was never close to realizing it, though I've played Karate and I loved it till i got so busy in college and didn't have much time to squeeze it in my sked.

2. I wanted to be a good driver and be able to drive a big truck. But hubby would not allow me yet to drive on my own. :( Only casual driving is permitted. Its not yet late to realize it, right?

3. I want to own a business. I still don't know what kind of business though.

4. I want us (me and hubby) to have our very own dream house. We are now a proud owner of a decent lot in Punta Verde, so I think having our dream house can be attain soon (hope so!).

5. I want to travel and travel. Whenever time permits (and if budget is not tight), hubby and I love to visit different places. Hubby said, we will visit US someday..... so you see, I think someday is not really a bad word. It just gives me more hope.

6. I want us to have a baby. We don't talk about it before since we just want to enjoy each other's company first and focus on just us but being married won't be complete without a child, right? We are not yet a hopeless case since we started to talk about it just this year. We still think that God will give it to us in His own sweet time.

7. And the list goes on and on...

Have I done anything to realize all my dreams? Well yeah... kinda.. but I think I haven't work hard enough to reach them. I've read once that for dreams to come true, you must stop chasing them. And why not???? For me, its more like a butterfly or LOVE, when you chase it, it eludes you. But when you stop chasing, it voluntarily comes to you. They said we should work hard enough to attain something but the bad side of it is that we forget to live, we struggle to achieve it, we dont enjoy anymore. We don't enjoy the scenery on a detour. Would you be happy fulfilling all these dreams knowing you lost track of everything because you became desperate in chasing your goal? You focus on it so much. Am I making any sense here? I hope I do. hahaha.

Nuff of this gibberish. Lets talk about these two cuties who are celebrating their birthday today.

The younger one first, he is my beloved godchild. Very playful and yet so timid. He calls me Tita Ninang and calls hubby Tito Daddy. He is just so sweet and I think he is a photographer in the making. I haven't seen him recently but I know I will see him soon. His dad (my kuya) keeps on pressuring me to give Tian tian a playmate, and he will have it. Hahaha thanks to his mom and dad coz he will be having a baby brother/sister really soon.

My friend this time, she is Gara. Been my best bud for almost 9 years now. She is a batchmate at work and more than that. She is a sister I never had. She was even my maid of honor. We shared hellavalota secrets. I think she knows me a lot. She knows what runs in my mind. I hope to see her walk down the aisle soon. I bet she'll be the loveliest bride of the year. No offense to our other friends, not unless they will all be married on the same year. Of course they will have their own highlights. I just hope its gara this year. I want us to bond just how we bonded when I was planning on my wedding. Late nights of giveaway makings, planning and planning and more planning. It's just so exciting. You know that you'll have my full attention and support when that time comes.

So for both of you, a very Happy Birthday. I feel so blessed for being a part of your lives. Love yah both.
