First of all, I was curious to know what Magnum was. The last time we heard, a gun and (ehrmmm...) large-sized condoms were also called Magnum. I didn't know how hugely popular Magnum ice cream was in other countries. Hubby said he ate it in Iraq, and so did Doc Gelo in Malaysia and Raquel in Germany. To make a long story short, Magnum the ice cream is here... brought to us by the kind folks of Unilever Philippines. can't tell you how HOOKED I was when I first bit into its crunchy outer topping made of the finest Belgian chocolate and then drowned in the silky, ...

Physiogel for dry skin
I first heard of Physiogel from a derma who recommended it to me and my babies. This is one product that I don't often see in supermarket shelves but is a fixture in drugstores and skin clinics.
