  • Sport Sperry’s Latest Collection for Your Holiday Escapades

    With “revenge travel” reaching new heights this holiday season, packing light is giving way to packing right especially for those who want to look just as good as the places they’re heading to. Here’s how you can look Insta-ready for every OOTD you take, featuring Sperry’s new Holiday Escape Collection.

    Pick Your Pastels

    While neon has been making a comeback thanks to the Y2K trend among Gen Z, pastels when done right, are a timeless and surefire way to look sharp on your IG feed. Lighter tones are always a good idea for sunnier destinations to keep yourself looking and feeling fresh on the beaches of Boracay or Bali.

    Sperry 1

    Prints Charming

    While floral prints may seem like a common resort cliché, we suggest incorporating them into your travel ‘fits in up-to-date, subtle ways. Sperry adds a little summery flair to their canvas boat shoes and slip-ons with their tasteful modernized prints. Paired with Euro-chic separates like chinos or accordion skirts, you’re well on your way to looking like you belong to the French Riviera or the Amalfi Coast.

    Sperry 2

    Slide Into Style

    Slides are a must when traveling to give your feet a break. Fortunately, Sperry releases colorful new iterations of their best-selling Float Slides in wearable seasonal prints. Ever so cushy, these look great with tailored shorts and breezy, layered tops. The best part is you can take them to the beach without much worry.

  • S-Acetyl Glutathione: Marian Rivera’s Trusted Gluta

    Glutathione is well known to be an antioxidant that has additional anti-melanogenic properties. This just means that while it helps our body remain healthy and our immune system in tip-top shape, it also lightens the skin in the process.

    NUWHITE MARIAN RIVERA

    But did you know that not all glutathione supplements in the market are one and the same? The most popular type of glutathione in the Philippines is L-glutathione. This type of glutathione still needs to be oxidized in the body for it to be fully absorbed. The second type is called S-Acetyl glutathione. According to clinical studies, it is three times more powerful than L-glutathione since it is accompanied by an acetyl bond. This avoids oxidation and makes the glutathione molecule pass through cells easily, enabling quicker absorption in the body.

    Marian Rivera 02

    Nuwhite is one of the glutathione brands in the Philippines that is formulated with S-Acetyl glutathione, making it more potent and more effective in lightening the skin. Additionally, it contains marine collagen, vitamin E, and sodium ascorbate to further help your skin remain elastic and even toned.

    Marian Rivera 03

    If you want a healthier kutis and embody that “Relax! Ako Lang ‘To!” mindset just like Marian Rivera, drink one Nuwhite capsule daily!

    Nuwhite is available in Lazada, Shopee, Watsons, and through the Nuwhite website.

  • Cannibal Love Story “Bones and All” Gets R-16 Rating, To Be Shown With No Cuts

    The MTRCB explained in its decision that “the film contains graphic but non-gratuitous depiction of violence and gore, themes of cannibalism, that may not be suitable for children below sixteen (16) years of age.”

    In the US, “Bones and All” also received an R rating from the Motion Pictures Association of America (MPAA) “for strong, bloody and disturbing violent content, language throughout, some sexual content and brief graphic nudity.”

    The New York Times has described the film as “Gory, ridiculous and curiously touching,” while the Los Angeles Times found it “unsettling and heartbreaking in equal measure.”

    BAA 02 1

    “Bones and All” is “difficult to watch, but looking away is harder still,” says The New Yorker, as Bloody Disgusting raved that “It’s as elegant as carnal and carnivorous, and it’ll take a bite out of your heart if you let it.”

    From Metro Goldwyn Mayer Pictures comes “Bones and All,” a movie about love, directed by Luca Guadagnino (“Call Me by Your Name”), who recently won the Silver Lion for Best Director at the 2022 Venice Film Festival for the film.

    “Bones and All” is a story of first love between Maren (Taylor Russell), a young woman learning how to survive on the margins of society, and Lee (Timothée Chalamet), an intense and disenfranchised drifter… as they meet and join together for a thousand-mile odyssey which takes them through the back roads, hidden passages and trap doors of Ronald Reagan’s America. But despite their best efforts, all roads lead back to their terrifying pasts and to a final stand that will determine whether their love can survive their otherness.

    BAA 09

    “Bones and All” stars Taylor Russell (“Waves,” “The Heart Still Hums,”), who won the Marcello Mastroianni Award for Best Young Actor at this year’s Venice Film Festival; Timothée Chalamet (Oscar-nominated for “Call Me by Your Name,” “Dune”); Michael Stuhlbarg (“Call Me by Your Name,” “The Shape of Water”); André Holland (“Passing,” “Moonlight”); Chloë Sevigny (“We Are Who We Are,” “American Horror Story”); David Gordon Green (“Halloween Ends,” “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent”); Jessica Harper (“Suspiria,” “Minority Report”); Jake Horowitz (“Adam Bloom,” “The Vast of Night”); and Mark Rylance (Oscar winner for “Bridge of Spies,” “Wolf Hall”).

    The screenplay is by David Kajganich (“Suspiria,” “A Bigger Splash”), based on the novel by Camille DeAngelis.

    In cinemas across the Philippines starting November 23, “Bones and All” is distributed in the Philippines by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Discovery company.  Join the conversation online and use the hashtag #BonesAndAll
