Hello everyone! I just wanted to do a simple review on this product I encountered while I was having a date with my bf last month. I was wearing a new set of shoes that day and the back part was digging on the back of my ankle and it became painful to walk due to the tender skin so I went to Watsons to buy some Band Aids. That's my favorite band of plasters because it stays put until you remove it and it's thick so if you have a wound, it gets cushioned very well. Anyway, I'm supposed to grab a box of Band Aid but this caught my eye and bought it instead -- Watsons Sesame Street Edition Washproof Plasters
WHAT I LIKED ABOUT IT:
- Cute designs. I loved Sesame Street as a kid and I like cute things so this really made me happy.
- I believe this is cheaper than the Band Aid ones.
- Locally available on all Watsons store.
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
- This doesn't stick at all. When I put this on my foot, it got removed after a couple of minutes walking. Even if I put it on my finger, once I wash my hands, it slips out quite easily.
- This is so thin that it is not meant to cushion the wounds from impact like the ones caused by shoes.
- I think this is limited edition.
OVER-ALL RATING: 3/5
Design - 5/5 <-- really cute
Functionality - 2/5 <-- it doesn't stay put that long to serve it's purpose.
WILL I REPURCHASE? Nope. I will try other brands with cute designs like the Mediplast ones that I saw Nikki of Askmewhats featured on her blog :)
Thanks for dropping by!
Hello everyone! I want to post this CNN weather forecast about the coming super typhoon Parma (Pepeng) this weekend..You can watch the clip here:

I'm really hoping for a miracle that this will miss all the places that was already affected by Ketsana (Ondoy) even though according to CNN, this typhoon will hit Manila and Northern Luzon (again!)...Guys, let us try our best to prepare for this upcoming super typhoon..this is stronger than Ondoy and the heavy rain we experienced earlier today was just a warning..
I got really scared earlier when the rain started pouring..the drops are so big and Araneta Avenue got flooded easily..the water reached the sidewalks in just 30minutes of continous raining..what more on Saturday when the typhoon comes?
According to Philippine National Red Cross, we need to prepare for the following in order to survive for a couple of days just in case we got flooded again. I can't remember everything coz I just watched this in the news earlier and I can't find a link of the complete list..I suggest you still do some research or prepare whatever you think you might be needing just in case.
1. First aid kit: antibacterial ointments, antipyretics (paracetamol), oral rehydration solutions (oresol), anti diarrheal meds, antihistamines, cough and colds medicines, antibiotics, medications for your diseases like asthma, heart problems and diabetes, band aids, gauzes, betadine, etc
2. 3 gallons of water for each person. This can make you last for 3 days.
3. canned foods and easy to cook foods like noodles.
4. flashlights with plenty of extra batteries
5. many boxes of matches and candles
6. charge your cellphones and extra batteries (if available) and keep your charger
7. charge your emergency lights
8. Toiletries - tissues, alcohol, soaps, toothbrush, etc
9. Changes of clothes
Place everything in one plastic container and keep it in one place where you can easily reach for it in case of evacuating.
I hope and pray that everyone will be safe and we can all survive this coming super typhoon. God bless everyone!
