Summer Heat Relief Efforts

05.01.2013 by Leah // Leave a Comment

I did a little shopping last weekend to help me combat the heat wave we’re having right now:

P1080848b

Although I always have my hair in a bun using big hair claws,  I still feel hot and uncomfortable. With the weather at 34-36 degrees Celsius everyday, the simple hair bun doesn’t help anymore.  So I tried a mid-high hair bun using the hair claws and while that greatly helped in relieving me of that burning feeling, it was only temporary because the hair claws doesn’t hold too well for a mid-high bun.  It loosens up after a while.

The spin pins from Goody at PCX Rockwell helped me achieve the my own mid-high hair bun look at minimum effort and without any scalp pain.  I love how natural it looked (no need for hair nets!) and how easy it is to put the screw-type pins on the hair.  Whether you like it sleek or messy, you can do that in minutes with these Goody pins.

I started using the spin pins this week and they hold up really well, there’s no need for me to re-fix my hair at all.  I only remove them when I get home to allow my hair to breathe.

I also bought myself a Carmex lip balm because my lips have been drying up quickly since this abnormal summer started.   I got the Cherry-flavored lip balm and it smells really nice.

Finally, no more burning feeling at the nape and no more over-drying of the lips for me.  I hope my relief efforts will help me through the rest of this unbelievable summer heat.

#throwback to Easter 2019 when @ajdeleon77 and I t #throwback to Easter 2019 when @ajdeleon77 and I took mommy and daddy to a double date at Rockwell Powerplant. Today is daddy's 11th month in heaven 💜 The coming weeks are sure going be tough for me because the painful memories from last year will start coming back as we approach his 1st death anniversary. I miss our family bonding time whether in Cebu or Makati, at the mall or simply at home. The over-extended quarantine has made it very difficult for us create new memories as a family (outside videocalls, that is). But I know that with God's grace we will overcome. 🙏

More than half of the leaves dried up.  But look, new buds have started to say 'Hi' just last week 🤗 Need talaga ng patience kapag #plantita ka. 😁
