#LiveCleanLiveGreen at home for a Cleaner Future.

Kindness is a trait parents always try to instill in their children, kindness to people and animals, and of course, kindness to the environment. While we try to teach our kids the importance of recycling, reducing waste, and more, we also try to find affordable and accessible ways to extend eco-friendly habits to the products we buy.

Unilever, through its beloved homecare brands Breeze and Domex, empowers parents like you to #LiveCleanLiveGreen and pass on green habits to your kids. Under its Linis Pilipinas campaign, the company remains committed to create a Clean Future, by providing shoppers with good quality products that are good for the environment, as well as accessible ways to reduce, upcycle and recycle.

Starting with the large packs of Breeze and Domex, Unilever has started creating bottle packaging made from 100% recycled plastic, saving up to 19,000kg or 342,000 pieces of bottles from going into landfills or oceans that contribute to pollution annually. Moreover, Breeze Powder is formulated with EcoClean technology and does not contain any hard surfactant that can damage the environment.

To strengthen their commitment to reduce plastic waste, Unilever has also partnered with ThePlastic Flamingo (PLAF). A homegrown social enterprise that collects and upcycles plastic waste to create eco-lumbers and eco-boards, PLAF uses these to build furniture and shelters for communities in need. You can join in by dropping off your clean plastics at the Breeze and PLAF's collection point in UP Town Center.

Shoppers can also participate by purchasing the eco-friendly packed Breeze and Domex via the Linis Pilipinas Sale this coming October 22-24. Enjoy exclusive Buy 2-Take 1, eco bag giveaways and other discounts, deals, and gifts via Unilever Homecare’s official stores on Lazada and Shopee, or shop at any Robinsons Supermarkets, Puregold and Waltermart nationwide to take home a free eco bag when purchasing big packs. A portion of the proceeds during this sale period will be donated to PLAF to fund the collection and upcycling of 16,000 kg of plastic waste into eco-friendly furniture which will be donated to a beneficiary public school. Now, you can get huge savings while helping out the environment at the same time.

Fruttare | It's All Good!

Today has been pretty awesome. I got paid for last month's writing gigs, worked on three new paid posts, received several event invites, did an interview for a Mother's Day feature article (thanks, Kumi!), and best of all, became Brand Ambassador for Fruttare!

It's All Good!

Made from real fruit and creamy milk, Fruttare is bound to be your best buddy during the hot summer months. Its vibrant colors, rich taste, and cold touch makes it the ultimate refresher. And it's all natural, too - no artificial colors, no artificial flavors. Just the goodness of milk and the colors of fruit blending deliciously in every Fruttare bar.

There are eight flavors to choose from: Mango, Strawberry, Lime, Orange, Strawberry & Milk, Coconut & Milk, Peach & Milk, and Banana & Milk. And would you believe that there's less than 60 calories in every Fruttare bar? Yep, you can indulge and it's all good. :)

Yummy flavors!

And in celebration of Fruttare's debut in the US, Grammy-Award winning superstar Ne-Yo and platinum-selling artist Cher Lloyd have teamed up to create an original song for the brand. The good part? Us fans are being given this rare opportunity to help create this song!  By simply sharing your 'it's all good' moments in Fruttare's Facebook Page, your happy thoughts and pretty pictures could very well be the inspiration for Ne-Yo and Cher Lloyd's song!

Car won't start? Ride a bike to work and get some exercise while you're at it! #itsallgood
Stuck in horrible traffic? Play games on your smartphone while you wait! #itsallgood
Significant other working overseas? Then what are video calls and messaging apps for? #itsallgood

These are just some of my #itsallgood moments. You know what I always say - imbibe postivity! Make the most out of a bad situation. Never let negativity bring you down. Make lemonade out of life's lemons!

How about you? Care to share your #itsallgood moments? :)
