The past few years have highlighted the importance of our connection with friends and loved ones; they have made our lives so much brighter and easier. Mints brand Tic Tac gives us a unique and special way to send love and good vibes to our lives with its newest campaign “Good MoMints with Tic Tac Gentle Vibes,” which was launched via a fun online event last Saturday, March 19.
Tic Tac Gentle Vibes
The Tic Tac Gentle Vibes livestream event was hosted by Sarah Carlos and featured singer-actress Julie Anne SanJose, actor-director Fifth Solomon, and YouTuber Joselle Alandy.
“The real goal of the campaign is to help us connect with our loved ones, especially at this time of the pandemic. Nakakakilig naman kasi talaga when we receive unexpected gifts from our loved ones, or even words of affirmation that we’re doing great and we’re appreciated. Di ba, it’s one of the five love languages!” Sarah said.
The guests demonstrated how connecting with friends and loved ones can make life gentler and happier while playing games with each other. Julie, Fifth, and Joselle participated in the Summer Vibes Challenge with Tic Tac Gentle Vibes, where they were asked to guess items commonly associated with summer beach essentials such as buko juice, swimsuit, sunglasses, beach volleyball, and Tic Tac Fresh Mints.
In the “Guess the MoMints” game, the guests, together with host Sarah, guessed gentle messages from Tic Tac as one player mouths it out with his or her microphone off. The Tic Tac Gentle Messages such as “There’s always a positive side”, “You are my hero”, “The best moments are with you” and even the playful pun “You are always in my mint” prove that simple words of affirmation and love can mean the world to those we send it to.
“Natouch ako dun,” Fifth quipped.
“I think this campaign is really perfect kasi yun talaga yung kailangan natin ngayon, to basically just spend good vibes to everyone no matter how challenging yung mga pinagdadaanan natin,” Julie Anne said.
She added, “Marami tayong mga happenings na out of our control. But we do have control over how we see things and kung paano natin idedeal yung mga bagay na yun and how to take it possible.”

The Cultural Center of the Philippines in cooperation with Southern Lantern Studios and Daluyong Studios, presents a short feature documentary on the backstage work of the Center’s Theater Crew on March 30, 2022 at 3:00PM at the CCP Tanghalang Aurelio Tolentino (CCP Little Theater).
Billed as “Backstage Pass: Life Behind the Curtains”, the 30-minute feature documentary directed by award-winning indie filmmaker Joseph Mangat covers the back-of-house activities of the CCP Theater Crew in lights, fly, and stage areas. Featured crew members likewise share their unique backstage stories in the film.
Since the CCP raised its curtains on September 8, 1969, various local, regional, and international productions, events, activities in dance, music, theater, visual arts, film, television, radio, and literature were staged in its hallowed halls. People from all walks of life have set foot in this iconic structure to include Presidents, High Ranking Officials, and Royalties. Artists of local and international caliber have performed and have graced performances, events, launches, screenings, exhibits in the main performance spaces, exhibition spaces, and screening rooms.
The pandemic caused booked and scheduled performances from March 16, 2020 up to October 2021 to postpone, cancel or reschedule; bringing theater activities to a halt. It displaced a significant number of artists, theater workers/technicians, carpenters, painters, seamstresses and several other skilled craftsmen.
With the imposed dark theater lull extended indefinitely, the theater crew were re-assigned to an intensive maintenance program; with some, doing research and skills development, as well as design and fabrication of a few work implements.
The situation lent itself for capturing life happening behind the curtains in a short film documentary. The feature pays tribute to the unsung heroes who tirelessly work behind the curtains, people who create a seamless event spectacle, unseen by the audience, garbed in standard-issue black, weaving their way through huge sets and high voltage dimmers, as well as grids and catwalks in dizzying heights.

Kapamilya star Jericho Rosales couldn’t hide his excitement to begin working on his challenging role in “Sellblock,” the international prison action series of ABS-CBN International Production and Co-Production division, BlackOps Studios Asia, Psyops8, Story Arch Pictures, and Agog Film Productions, which he will headline.
According to Jericho, “Sellblock” was presented to him three years ago and he immediately loved the project.
“It’s always very exciting to do new things, especially groundbreaking projects and I felt that ‘Sellblock’ is one of those. It was presented to me at the time when I was looking for projects with more grit, projects that would push me, motivate me to try out new things, out of the box stuff, even character roles.”
“Sellblock” will serve as Jericho’s Kapamilya comeback after his 2018 drama series “Halik,” making the actor go into full research and training mode for his role with a New York-based acting coach.
“Working on this kind of project would push me to prepare in ways that I haven’t done before so I kind of love that fresh experience. There’s a little nervousness on my part and when I get nervous about something it means that it’s a good thing,” he explained.
Jericho also said that it has always been his dream to ‘work with the best in the world’ that’s why he didn’t let “Sellblock” slip away.
“My dream has always been to work with the best in the world. The best actors, best directors, best people in production, best scripts, the best locations. Who doesn’t want that, right? When an opportunity like this comes, you don’t sleep on it. You respond right away. When it was presented to me, I really liked it. Unfortunately, COVID-19 happened, but I’m really glad that ‘Sellblock’ is back. And I hope this opportunity will open new doors in the international scene, not just for me, but for all the great Filipino talent behind this project.”
It was announced earlier this week that Jericho will be joined by acclaimed actors Tirso Cruz III, Cherry Pie Picache, Ronnie Lazaro, Rosanna Roces, Mon Confiado, RK Bagatsing, and Pepe Herrera that pushed him to do his best for the project. Adding to his motivation are the support of the fans for “Sellblock” that he read online.
The Kapamilya star is also thrilled with ABS-CBN’s push to produce more international content for global audiences.
He remarked, “I’m excited that ABS-CBN is focusing on international projects and bringing talents, helping them get discovered and be seen not just in the Philippines, but all over the world.”
“Sellblock” was announced on Variety during this year’s Hong Kong Filmart.
The country’s leading content provider, ABS-CBN continues to forge new partnerships to promote Filipino stories and talent all over the world. Entertainment website Deadline revealed recently that ABS-CBN is also collaborating with Filipino-American actor Reggie Lee and Filipino-American film producer Jeremiah Abraham for “Concepcion,” a crime drama about a Filipino family’s rule in a Los Angeles town.
Earlier this year, ABS-CBN announced the all-star cast of “Cattleya Killer,” a thriller series produced for global audiences that will be shown later in 2022. It is also behind “Almost Paradise,” the first American TV series filmed entirely in the Philippines, which it co-produced with Hollywood’s Electric Entertainment.

One of the most compelling and conflicted characters in Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters comes to the big screen in the action-thrillerMorbius as Oscar® winner Jared Leto transforms into the enigmatic antihero Michael Morbius.
Watch Morbius’ Universe Vignette below:
Dangerously ill with a rare blood disorder and determined to save others suffering his same fate, Dr. Morbius attempts a desperate gamble. While at first it seems to be a radical success, a darkness inside him is unleashed. Will good override evil – or will Morbius succumb to his mysterious new urges?
“Morbius is searching for goodness – the cure for a disease. He’s going to find it, disregarding the cost on himself or on society,” says director Daniel Espinosa. “And in his search for goodness, he transforms into something he detests. He has to accept the ugliness he has within him, and that there’s something beautiful about it. It will be his strength, what makes him unique.”

Morbius’s increasingly desperate research leads him to combine human DNA with that of the vampire bat – the only mammal that survives solely on blood – which has evolved to develop anticoagulants… a genetic mutation that Morbius is convinced will cure him and others with his disease. Not only does the treatment cure him, but gives him superhuman strength, the agility of an Olympic athlete, even the echolocation powers of the bat – to “see” objects in space by harnessing the sounds around him. But the cure also transforms Morbius into a (literally) bloodthirsty monster – a hideous creature with cravings that he is only somewhat able to control.

According to Espinosa, it’s the character’s inner humanity, his duality between virtuous man and brutal creature, that makes him so compelling. “Michael Morbius is one of the most altruistic characters of the Marvel Universe,” he says. “He’s one of the few that really believes in good. This good man has a horrible disease, and in his trials to save himself and the people that he cares for, he turns into a monster.”

As a man who has spent countless hours reading and thinking about comic books, Espinosa says that it isn’t so surprising that Morbius’s duality has earned him a following. “Most great heroes are antiheroes,” he says. “Most of us are resistant to accept that we are the chosen one, and Morbius is the same. The most interesting characters in the Marvel universe have always been those that have had one foot on each side: Magneto, Rogue, Wolverine, in his own way, Venom. All of these characters are the ones that are fundamentally the most fascinating for us as moviegoers and comic book readers.”
Columbia Pictures presents in association with MARVEL, an Avi Arad / Matt Tolmach production, Morbius. Starring Jared Leto, Matt Smith, Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, Al Madrigal, and Tyrese Gibson. Directed by Daniel Espinosa. Produced by Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, and Lucas Foster. Screen Story and Screenplay by Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless. Based on the MARVEL Comics.
Exclusively in cinemas across the Philippines on March 30, Morbius is distributed by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International. Connect with the hashtag #Morbius
There’s no denying that skin problems have been on the rise since the pandemic because of stress-related issues from maskne, allergies, to visible signs of aging. But another problem, pandemic or not, makes women lose sight of their confidence? Scars and stretch marks. While there are topical or laser treatments that help to lighten the condition, most often than not, these remedies don’t work for most people. This is where founder and professional permanent make-up artist Bianca Festejo thought of introducing an alternative that delivers an almost instant noticeable result: Camouflage tattoo.
As the founder of the pioneer camouflage center in the country, Bianca’s goal is to provide an advanced and safe solution in hiding skin imperfections with a result client will love, “We have developed a reading device that identifies a person’s skin tone and is being reflected through our app. This initial step determines the color that will match a person’s skin tone perfectly and at the same time, ensure a natural-looking result,” shares Bianca. Another great news is that this procedure works from light stretch marks, light scars, to surgical scars and skin hypopigmentation, and has treated over 2,000 clients in her clinic since its inception.
But for Bianca, Nue Conceal’s unique treatment proved not just to banish insecurities, but it has been a dramatic solution for some of her client’s mental and emotional health problems. “We have women who have come to the clinic and shared that their skin dilemmas caused their social interactions, careers, intimacy, and relationships to go rock bottom.”
And for Bianca, aside from the satisfaction that she gets from her work, it’s truly the life-changing “Nue Conceal Experience” that gives her purpose and motivation. This Women’s Month, here are the top 3 stories that have inspired Bianca to take their business to the next level:
A YOUNG GRANDMA WHO NEVER WORE PANTS
Mila is a happily married 49-year-old grandma battered with insecurity. Pants were her go-to even at home since she was a teenager. “I’ve never experienced joining any beach outings as I fear relatives and friends will find out about my scar-infected legs.” But until recently, her grandkid asked why she always wears pants even at home, which made her feel devastated. “I’ve tried various treatments from creams, serums, and lasers to consulting the best dermatologists, but nothing worked. However, things suddenly changed when she turned to Nue Conceal to try the Brazilian Camouflage , “For the first time, I was able to join our family beach outing just right after my first session,” she happily notes.
FROM DEPRESSED TO 100% CONFIDENT
25-year-old Dana is a medical student with visible, large stretch marks on her arms and legs. “While I’m not being bullied for it anymore unlike before as a teenager, the pain and trauma I’ve gone through caused depression and insecurity growing up.” She also tells Bianca that it also prevented her from joining group class activities. However, discovering Nue Conceal stretch mark treatment gave her a glimpse of hope, as she saw a huge difference that she has never experienced before. “I was able to wear a sleeveless top for the first time and I couldn’t be happier!”
A NURSE WHO KEPT HER DREAMS ON HOLD
Ave is a licensed nurse who has been receiving numerous offers to work abroad, but always begs off because she was worried about her leg scars. “I’ve always thought that I’ll be laughed at when people see my scars.” Thankfully, the 33-year-old Davaoeña discovered Nue Conceal online and immediately booked a flight to Manila to give the treatment a try. “I’ve spent thousands of dollars looking for a remedy, including going to so many top dermatologists but nothing worked. With Nue Conceal scar revision, I could say that the investment was all worth it. I’m happy to report that I just submitted my application for a nursing job in the UK!”
Bianca points out that she didn’t expect that there are so many women out there who’ve been searching for an answer for their scars and stretch marks problems. She wanted to tell them that there was hope. “These life-changing story truly motivates us to share our craft with more women who might be also experiencing the same problems as our clients. It’s our mission to regain not just their confidence, but also their life,”
Currently present in 10 countries, Bianca has also set up an online training class for those who want to learn the art of camouflage concealer. “Most of our students not only have zero knowledge in tattoos but are also going through anxiety themselves because of their stretch marks and scars. It’s my vision not just to introduce the art behind this technique, but also make them understand the science behind it.” Thanks as well to Nue Conceal’s French-made organic ink, as it’s not only safe for the skin, its color remains nice and consistent even at long periods under the sun.
