Supermom deserves to look good and feel great

I love the #LookGoodFeelGreat campaign of Watsons Philippines. It promotes self-care and self-affirmation, it encourages us to look deep within ourselves our strength. From that strength, we can be more inspired, motivated, and confident that there is something in us that is meaningful.

This Mother’s Day, Watsons also came up with a video for us moms.

You know, there are days that I feel unappreciated… Minsan, mas gusto ko pang umaalis kasi pag nakikita nila ako, lagi na lang:

Mommy, ano pong pagkain?

Mommy, anong ulam natin mamaya?

Mommy, penge namang tubig?

Gusto ko na silang tanungin ng may nakasulat ba sa noo ko na, “Utusan nyo ako?” hahaha Sinong nakakarelate? Pero ang totoo, way lang talaga nila ng paglalambing yun. It’s an indirect way of saying na our family needs us.

On a serious note, our husbands and children see us as brave, selfless, caring and responsible. Moms are often hard on themselves; completely unaware that to their children, husbands and loved ones, they are perfect.

A mother’s love is selfless and her job never ends but she deserves a break. Moms need to pamper themselves and be pampered. Happy mothers who look good and feel great in turn make their loved ones feel great, too.

For Mother’s Day, make her feel like the perfect woman who looks good and feels great always. Here are some ideas:

1. Give your mom a homemade gift card for a foot and hand massage. It should be redeemable forever.
2. Put together a special basket for mom filled with beauty and wellness goodies such as facemasks, massage oil, a bottle of multivitamins and nail polish. Basically, the basket should include items your mother will enjoy.
3. Give her gift cards from her favorite store. If she loves beauty, then she will enjoy shopping at Watsons. If it’s fashion she’s into, she will surely love the wide selection at The SM Store.
4. Write a letter or poem telling her why she is the best mom in the world and what makes her perfect.
5. Serve her breakfast in bed. If you can’t cook, slice some fruits and serve it with toast and butter on a beautiful plate.
6. Take her out for dinner and a movie. Take note of what her favorite restaurant is and what movies she likes to watch.
