Both Kojiesan’s lotions contain HydroMoist, a new formulation that gives hydration to your skin while locking in the moisture.

We have all been dreaming to find the one and, the Universe will sometimes give us at least a reasonable 60% / 40% chance in winning the cards we choose to play. Most often than not, we fall into the 60% black hole along with the people who share the same dating horror stories.
We are all aware, dating is tough, it is tricky and draining. People tend to use a lot of psychological tactics and mind games as if we are in a thriller Netflix series. We get tired, but once you find that someone you enjoy hanging out with and matches your energy, you wouldn’t want to let them go.
Here are a couple dating mishaps that we can laugh at (and learn from) –
The One That Got the Bill “I sometimes daydream of that perfect date, you know, like candle-lit dinner by the beach with my feet on the sand. I mean, it is the first date, right? So, when I met up with someone I met on a dating app, I was ecstatic! I prepared everything from the dress I would wear to the littlest things – like, the lipstick color I would use. It was all good and, I was starting to like him because we share the same interests and he was so funny! But, when it was time to pay for the bill, his eyes went wide and asked if I could pay for it because, apparently, he “forgot” his ATM card and had no cash on hand. As an independent woman who can buy and pay meals on my own, I said yes, but got really turned-off. I mean, “forgetting” necessities like ATM card and cash on a first date? The guy must have a lot on his mind.” – Jojo, PR Practitioner
I Forgot That You Existed “I came from a long-term relationship, so dating became an alien term for me. My friend tried to set me up with his college friend and I thought, why not try? He, then, picked me up at my house and had a complete plan of what we would be doing for the day – I was amazed. I mean, a gay guy who can plan, +10 points for you! And, he was so neat and smells good that when he reached and kissed me on the cheek, no sweat and scalp odor at all (considering he just came from the gym). We were en route to our first venue when he blurted that he needed to drop by the grocery store to check on something. I said yes and decided to stay inside the car since he said, “Be back in 5!” without knowing that what he really meant was, “be back in 5 hours!” I stayed inside the car the whole day and he totally forgot I was there. I had to call my friend and tell him it was over when it hadn’t even started yet.” – Jay, Ad Guy
Snow White Queen “My first date was with my college crush. She looked just like an angel and when I finally found the confidence to ask her out and watch movie, I was shocked that she said yes. When we met at the theatre, she was wearing her little black dress, and her hair was literally her crowning glory. But she kept on scratching her head, I shrugged it off and tried to enjoy the day with her. We were having fun not until I was about to lean my head on her shoulders and to my surprise, a flaky truth came out! An angel with flakes on her head – totally turned off. Before I brought her home, I subtly told her how anti-dandruff shampoo works magic! – Chris, Artist
Thunder Thighs “I love meeting new people, so I go out on a date as often as I can. When I met this guy on a dating app, I thought, “pwede na.” One night, when we were having dinner, I saw him looked at the voluptuous body of the girl at the bar and said, “kapag hindi sexy dapat hindi na nagsusuot ng ganyan,” I was surprised. So, when we were done eating, I stood up and whispered, “kapag hindi naman masyadong cute hindi na dapat nagcocomment ng ganyan.” I kissed him on the cheek and walked out.” – Jem G., Broker
Thank You, Text! “I was so excited to tell my friend how my date went, so I texted her, “girl, sobrang kinikilig ako. Gusto ko sya.” Within a second, I got a reply not from my friend, but from the guy. Turned out, I sent the text to the wrong person! It was so embarrassing that I refused a second date when he asked me.” – Chin, Student
First dates are one of the most crucial stages in meeting your soon-to-be partner and, we make sure that we put our best foot forward. But, sometimes, these dates will also either make the relationship go on forever or, stop right there and then.

When it comes to beauty, there’s so many options on what to put and what to wear. And it’s another level if you “Does the job” with your favorite Doctor. Cringing right? If I were to do it, I’m actually thinking about it, if it is safe? Do I look like the same with other celebs and person who does it too? Cloned! So, Merz Aesthetics cleared all my questions.
Merz, a global leader in providing cutting-edge technology in the Aesthetics Industry, exposes the truth behind a beauty treatment that is gaining popularity globally – beauty fillers.
• With 110years in the market, Merz continues to focus on its mission to allow patients to LIVE BETTER, FEEL BETTER and LOOK BETTER.
• Merz also brought the popular aesthetic treatment, Ultherapy, to the Philippines. It is a US FDA-cleared noninvasive procedure that is proven to lift the Brow, Cheeks, Chin and Decollate.

• Patients reveal positive impact of fillers after treatment
Manila, Philippines – Works of art are continuously restored over time – isn’t a person a work of art, too? This is a famous saying by a revered aesthetic surgeon from Germany. Indeed, a person is a work of art and yet, opting to undergo aesthetic treatments as a way of enhancing beauty is still a heated topic today.
Merz, one the leaders in the field of aesthetics medicine, led a beauty agenda at the Grand Hyatt Manila recently, that sought to shed light on the bigger picture – that opting for beauty fillers should not be frowned upon. The forum, dubbed as ‘Merz Aesthetics Beauty Agenda: A Forum on Fillers,’ helped debunk the different misconceptions that can possibly hinder women to be fully empowered when it comes to getting beauty treatments.
Driven by the mission to help people live better, feel better and look better, Merz, together with Dr. Wilson Ho, Dr. Gaile Robredo-Vitas, Dr. Gio Dimayuga, and Dr. Gerald Sy, provided an in-depth look on beauty fillers tackling the most common myths that exist today.
1. YOU WON’T LOOK NATURAL
Dr. Gio Dimayuga, an active consultant at the Makati Medical Center and several clinics in Manila asserts, “There is what you call the ‘overfilled’ syndrome where lip and cheek injections can result in a trout pout or pillow face.”
He mentioned that there are aesthetic companies that innovate to achieve as much natural-looking results as possible. With Merz’s 65 years of dedication to beauty since launching the first anti-wrinkle cream in 1953, they have committed to deliver natural-looking outcomes while putting their patients as the focus of every product. This is particularly evident with the patented technology behind their HA Filler, which is designed to integrate seamlessly into the skin tissue. And CaHa Filler which is considered as more than just a filler with its power lifting and bio-stimulation properties that allows patients to naturally produce collagen and tighten their skin.
2. ANYONE CAN DO DERMAL FILLER TREATMENTS
This is a common misconception faced today. The doctors in the forum stressed that it is crucial to note that only doctors can administer dermal fillers as it is a medical procedure.
Dr. Gerald Sy, the Vice President of Internal Affairs of the Philippine Association of Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgeons, Inc. highlights, “It is highly essential that prospective patients only look for experienced doctors who boast of several years in the aesthetics industry for their treatments. This is how we can avoid the ‘horror stories’ that result from procedures such as the overfilled syndrome.”
3. DOCTORS CAN USE ANY TYPE OF FILLERS ON YOUR FACE
“Only certain fillers for certain parts of the face have been approved by the FDA – so any type of filler in the market cannot be just used on your face,” states Dr. Gaile Robredo-Vitas, resident expert at St. Luke’s Medical Centre Bonifacio Global City and various clinics in Metro Manila.
For safety reasons, the FDA recognition for fillers is an essential factor when deciding to opt for dermal fillers.
4. JUST ANY KIND OF FILLERS ARE GOOD FOR YOU
There are many fillers that exist in the market – the HA, CaHa and you also have the permanent or non-permanent fillers. HA filler is considered as the most commonly used fillers by medical practitioners but only doctors can recommend the best filler suited for each patient as it is a case-to-case basis.
The medical practitioners shared that though there are dermal filler ‘horror stories’ people account for at times, many of these are not based on facts and are just misleading information. They stressed that safety is of utmost priority, together with years of proven research and technological development which is why it’s important to trust established aesthetics brands when it comes to choosing dermal fillers. Aside from having experts to discuss about this, there were also patients that shared their journey in immersing themselves in aesthetics treatments.
The Modern-Day Filipina Woman
Globally, studies have shown that there is an increasing traction on the societal acceptance of beauty fillers and that it can be regarded as ‘mainstream’ to the everyday woman.
In the Philippines, though there is a growing consumer demand, many still find it a challenge to admit that they have undergone aesthetic treatments. Insecurity is often equated with undergoing aesthetic treatments and the forum served as a platform for filler patients to share their experience and how Merz contributed in battling these issues.
“I have always seen myself as someone beautiful, but there are those days. I never wanted to change how I look but rather, I only wanted to accentuate the beauty that I already have. With Merz and the minimally invasive treatments they offer, I felt more empowered to make the decision of having fillers injected on me,” shared Agoo Bengzon, beauty editor.
Guests were also treated to aromatic, and beauty and wellness stations, with on-the-spot assessments led by Dr. Gaile Robredo-Vitas and Dr. Gio Dimayuga. The event culminated with a toast, in celebration of the forum’s success and Merz’s 110th year anniversary.
