How to treat lice?

As a child, perhaps you had the unfortunate experience of contracting head lice. It may be embarrassing to admit but I did have lice when I was a child. Adults will often say that "Liliparin na daw ako ng kuto or may bahay na sila nabuo sa ulo ko." Lice infestations can be extremely stressful and disrupting. 

Pediculosis presents a negative impact on children’s self- confidence.  It is one of the causes of absenteeism, loss of concentration, attentiveness and poor academic performance. 

That is why it is imperative that we treat them right away and make our kids enjoy school without the worry of lice.


What are lice?

Head lice are tiny insects that develop in three stages: from nit to nymph to full-blown louse.


How can I get lice? 
The primary way you can get head lice is when your head comes in direct contact with the head of an infested individual. Head-to-head contact like that doesn't guarantee that the infestation will spread, but it gives lice the best opportunity to move from the hair of the infested person to your hair.

What are the symptoms of head lice?

  • Itchiness- One of the biggest symptoms of head lice is, obviously, an itchy scalp. Of course, there are many other things that can cause itchiness, such as dandruff, allergies, or just dry scalp from the changing weather. There’s no need to jump to conclusions, but if your child is scratching their head more often and complaining of an itchy or tingly scalp, you may want to check for lice.
  • Sores and Scabbing- Kids tend to scratch harder than necessary when they have an itch, and they can end up injuring themselves in the process. In the case of head lice, children may even scratch throughout the night without realizing it. If you suspect head lice, check your child’s scalp and hairline for sore spots, scratch marks or scabs that have been caused by excess scratching.
  • Loss of Sleep- The itchiness caused by lice can be persistent, and the constant discomfort will probably disrupt your child’s sleep schedule. If your child has a hard time getting asleep or staying asleep due to itching, there’s a good chance that head lice are to blame.
  • Irritability- If your child has head lice, they’ll probably be more irritable than usual, and it’s no wonder why. Not only are they feeling itchy and uncomfortable, but they aren’t getting enough sleep either – and that’s enough to put anybody in a bad mood. 

What is the treatment for lice?

When it comes to lice treatment, there is Permethrin (Kwell) Shampoo, the medicated shampoo for the treatment of head lice and their eggs (kuto at lisa) and prevention for those at risk. 

How to use Permethrin (Kwell) Shampoo: 
1. Wet the Hair
2. Shake the bottle/open the sachet. Place an ample amount of Permethrin (Kwell) shampoo and lather it in the hair thoroughly. Make sure that all parts of the head, hair and scalp and even the back of the ears and neck are treated.
3. Leave for 10 minutes and wash thoroughly after.
4. Dry the hair by using a towel.

If other members of the family have lice, treat them as well with Permethrin (Kwell) to avoid the spread of lice.

Permethrin (Kwell) also is more economical. Use it once to get rid of lice then repeat after 7 days to make sure that no nits have been left and that’s it. No need to do maintenance washes. 


There’s no guaranteed way to avoid head lice. Teach your kids not to share brushes or hats, but remember that most cases come from simple close contact – hugging their friends, sitting close together, sleepovers and the like. There are products that claim to repel lice using essential oils; some suggest using hair gel at the roots; however, none of these claims has evidence to support the effectiveness. 


Permethrin (Kwell) for head lice & scabies is manufactured by  Aspen Philippines, a subsidiary of Aspen Pharmacare Holdings Limited, Africa’s largest pharmaceutical manufacturer and the biggest listed pharmaceutical group in the healthcare sector of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Aspen Philippines aims to make high-quality branded medicines available to Filipino patients at affordable cost.

One of Aspen’s healthcare programs called “Kwella sa Es-Kwella at Komunidad”  was established in 2013 as a response to the Dept. of Education’s (DepEd) need for information campaign on proper hygiene and treatment for pediculosis (head lice). For the past 4 years, Aspen Philippines has conducted series of educational tours.  In 2017, they have visited 630 schools, participated by about 12,000 students, teachers, school staff and parents. 

In 2015, Aspen Philippines was awarded by Aspen Asia the Asia’s Community Involvement Award for our delousing activity of 150 children in Barangay Barangka, Mandaluyong City. Permethrin (Kwell) is the Number One head lice treatment certified by IMS Health.

The above program was institutionalized by Aspen Philippines as a result of the 2012 DepEd & University of the Philippines (UP) statistics which revealed that pediculosis (head lice) is ranked as the 2nd most common ailment among public school children aged 7-12 years old.  Based on DepEd data, almost 9M or 84% of students are afflicted with head lice.  

Kaya, Dito ka na sa Aprubado! Sa Permethrin (Kwell), Isang Hugas. Kuto Todas!

#CleanLessLiveMore with Mr Muscle®

Sometimes I wish I had more than 24 hours in a day. Juggling many things is undeniably difficult. Indeed, time management is one job I take seriously but still fail at mostly.

I would constantly ask myself, "How should I do it? What can I do to be able to spend more quality time with my family?"

Being a mom, cleaning is a major task that takes up so much of my time. At least that wasn't something I had to think through so hard. I have been looking for ways to spend less time cleaning and spend more time to the things I love and my family.

I recently partnered with Mr Muscle®to help me make more time with my family. Mr Muscle®understands that we need to focus on what really matters in our lives. And definitely cleaning our house is definitely not one of it.


I used to scrub our bathroom, especially our toilet several times a week. Before I knew it, I'm already exhausted by the day. And I'd regret it because those extra hours could've been spent playing with my kids or just simply bonding with them.


The newMr Muscle®Foaming Bleach Gel is just what I needed.

1. Long lasting freshness
- Mr Muscle®Foaming Bleach Gel is so powerful that it can keep the toilet fragrant longer than other cleaning agents. It's available in Citrus and Lavender scents, and I absolutely love both of them! I always associate good smell with hygienic that is why I prefer Mr Muscle® than basic bleach which I really dislike the smell of.









2. Tough on germs
- The combined cleaning action and bubbly foam can kill 99.9% of germs.
New Mr Muscle® Foaming Bleach Gel kills 99.9% of germs and removes stains effectively. It foams and freshens to provide a more powerful clean than basic bleach. This makes me feel at ease, as I can't afford my sons getting sick due to unsanitary bathroom or comfort room. Mr Muscle® surely takes care of the entire family by being tough on germs.



3. Power over stubborn and hard-to-reach stains
- I like how the bottle container of Mr Muscle® is designed. The extended neck helps reach the inside rim of the toilet, which even the brush couldn't reach. There's nothing like it! I also love how powerful it is over stubborn stains by leaving it for a few more minutes before rinsing. The bubbles lift away dirt and stain, visible and invisible, as I brush leaving the surfaces spotless.



I highly recommend Mr Muscle®Foaming Bleach Gel so we can #CleanLessLiveMore.


With this, I don't have to wish for the impossible anymore. I can now plan out our vacation, summer outings and other enjoyable activities. Remember, the greatest gift we can share with our children and spouse is our precious time.

As mommies, we always want the best for our children. No one can shake that from us. Their future matters to us so much.

We want our children to grow happy and healthy. Of course, we also want to ensure that they are getting the best education there is.

One of our best concerns is where we can see them grow, and their journey as they get ready for their future.

Mommies, I sincerely believe that STI can offer that.

Throughout so many years, STI have been building an extensive network of schools across the country. All their campuses are equipped with an ICT (Information and Communications Technology) - enabled education system.

They have this very sophisticated and elegant yet standardized curriculum in the fields of Information and Communication Technology, Business Management, Engineering, Healthcare, and even Hospitality and Tourism Management.

STI's curriculum equips all its students with the background and skills in information and communications technologies. This is very important because all the businesses and workplaces where students will do their jobs in the future--all of these will operate using digital information and communications systems.

Graduates of STI are future-ready and job-ready. That’s because STI’s curriculum is designed to fit the requirements of all companies that graduates will work for, eventually. All skills that STI students learn and acquire are useful in all types of corporate settings and workplaces, even in healthcare and tourism.

As for STI graduates in ICT, they have enough knowledge in computer systems and data communication networks, and are equipped with specialized skills in software design, systems development, and multimedia systems — all core competencies desired by top companies around the world.

As mommies, we want to be sure that as we invest in our child’s education, their school will equip them the tools and skills necessary to keep up in today’s competitive workplace. I believe STI can do just that.

Safeguard: Pabaon sa Buhay" Film Reveals the Secret to Norman King's Success

When Norman King made history by becoming the first Aeta to graduate from a premier state university in the Philippines, he was the talk of the town in an instant. His story was an inspiration to many. But what could be his secret to success?

Safeguard Philippines reveals the story behind Norman King's success and how he became ready to face the big world in a recent video launched. The "Safeguard: Pabaon sa Buhay” film revolves around the life lessons his mom, Warlita King, imparted to him from his younger years until his coming of age. These life lessons or "Pabaon sa Buhay" set Norman ready for the independent life.

Also known as provisions for life, “Pabaon sa Buhay” is derived from the term "baon," which refers to the money, food or any provision that a person takes from home to set one ready for school, work, or any journey. “Baon” however does not only pertain to material things. It can be the words of wisdom, life lessons, and family values parents teach their kids at home to protect them from the uncertainties of the outside world.

For Norman, his mom's “Pabaon sa Buhay” became his protection and guide in life to keep focused on his goals despite the struggles of leading an independent life as shown in the short film.

The film begins with Norman who’s about to enter a university auditorium. He is seen wearing a bahag (a native loincloth) as he slowly walks his way through the crowd. All eyes are on him, but Norman remains undisturbed and determined. As he walks, memories of the past keep flashing back. These are moments when his mom taught him valuable lessons or her “Pabaon sa Buhay.”

When he first questioned his ethnicity and color, his mom told him that a clean heart has more value than physical appearance. He was also taught to never be ashamed of their status. In his teenage years, his mom reminded him to be proud of his race. These lessons and more are the things Norman carried with him as he took his own journey away from home.

“There is a universal challenge parents face in bringing up their children, having to balance the desire to keep them close and protected with letting them go explore the world to learn by themselves. At Safeguard, we strive to help parents overcome this tension by fostering a healthy independence between parents and children. Essential to this are the ‘pabaon’ parents give their children —be it an everyday lunchbox, the life saving habit of hand washing or life lessons—which will help protect them as they explore the world on their own,” says Alex Vogler, Associate Director, Digital Transformation & Brand Communications for Procter & Gamble’s Beauty Division in Asia Pacific.

“By sharing the touching story of Norman King and the life lessons he received from his mother, we are hoping to inspire parents all around the Philippines to impart their personal ‘pabaon’ to help protect their children in life,” concludes Vogler.
Be sure that your children are always protected even outside the home. Give them the protection that lasts with your own “Pabaon sa Buhay.”

Watch the heart-warming story of Norman King and his mother Warlita on Safeguard’s Facebookand YouTube. 

Join the conversation and share with us your own “Pabaon sa Buhay” stories online with the hashtags #PabaonSaBuhay and #Safeguard.

My Experience at Cebuana Lhuillier

We recently visited Taiwan to see the beauty it has to offer. We ate good food and explored the country. I then found out after, that my mom will be in the Philippines for a month with my Tatay Al. I wanted to surprise them with a trip to the Land of Harmony, Indonesia.


My cousin made a joke, “Kailangan natin bumale for Bali”. Since our recent Taiwan trip drained my bank account I have no choice but to try and get some money for our upcoming trip. I then saw an ad “Para sa mga bagay na higit sa pera”. I then headed to Cebuana Lhuiller to pawn my bracelet that was given to me since I was 19 by my mother.


The transaction went very smooth and never did I feel I was getting ripped off or scammed. Our trip to Bali was amazing and most importantly, my mother and Tatay Al had the best Mother’s Day and Father’s Day a daughter can give them this year. Beat that Kuya!

I had already claimed what I have pawned and again it was so easy but I would like to share to you my experience with Cebuana Lhuiller and my heirloom that paid for a lifetime of memories.

Why choose Cebuanna Lhuillier?

1. Pawning is easy with Cebuanna Lhuillier as they have more than 2,500 branches nationwide. 

2. Process is easier and shorter with dedicated lane for pawning. 

3. I had a peace of mind that my jewelry will be safe and secure. They ensure my items will never be tampered because it was sealed in a plastic pouch with my signature. Their vault where they keep the items are protected with a time lock mechanism. 

4. Cebuanna Lhuillier offers the highest appraisal rate (means biggest take home pay). Before I went to Cebuanna Lhuillier, I tried asking other pawnshop and appraised my bracelet and earrings less than what Cebuanna Lhuillier offered. 

5. There is no need to go back to the branch where the item was pawned to renew the loan with Cebuana Lhuillier's Renew Anywhere option. 


Cebuana Lhuillier accepts gold, diamond, and platinum jewelry and watches, as well as selected non-jewelry items such as cellphones and laptop computers.
