Another Vanity Tip
Friday, July 27, 2007
How to go about it:
1. After a bath, towel dry your hair until damp.
2. You may apply Tigi Bed Head Curl Maker (or any gel product) but it can be optional if you have natural hair like mine. I don't use it often because it's a little expensive about $25. But if you have moolah to spare this is highly recommended. Girls, this is not a sponsored post!
3. Have your hair sectioned and roll it towards the inner direction (paloob). Do not use the cover of the rollers use hair clips instead so as not to leave unsightly line marks on the upper or at your hair's crown.
4. Leave for a minimum of 2 hours unless you're going out. If you plan to have it overnight it is strongly suggested you use the rollers with foams so you can sleep without difficulties.
5.After taking the rollers, run a little hair shine to give your hair a glow.
Good luck!
Turn up the heat and blow your top! Go from a hair hater to a curl maker. Pump in kinky, sexy ringlets or round brush in sleek, smooth curl. Get ultra-light hold, control and volume that really lasts. It's good for you to get a little Uptight!

Health Insurance - This is a must!
Thursday, July 26, 2007
In my own opinion, money is not just about anything, though I will not contest other people’s view on this for reasons of its vital importance to our daily existence. Then I realized how important good health is for the family. No matter how we take care of our health but on the contrary if the illness is carried in the genes it is somewhat hard to handle. You may think that this sounds contradicting because money is also essential in maintaining good health. If you lack money, how can you buy and pay for staple foods, medicines, doctor’s fees and eventual hospitalization expenses?
Take the case of my husband Rey who was diagnosed with diabetes when he was 33 years old which is about 14 years by now. You can just imagine the cost being spent for his ailment. Thanks to my ever anticipating mother-in-law because knowing they have the family history of diabetes got her three boys a Life and Health Insurance when they turned 21 years old. The insurance company she got gave the best benefits and even offered financial assistance like loans for any reason anytime when you need it most. Isn’t that a great help?
Today, health care costs are high, and getting higher. Who do you think will pay your bills if you have a serious accident or a major illness? With health insurance, you protect yourself and your family in case you need medical care that could be very expensive. If you have insurance, many of your costs are covered by a third-party payer, the insurance company or your employer and this makes health insurance something very important. This will mean a lot of savings.
Learn the basics of health insurance in My Insurance Review - Health and please refer to their free health insurance guide to find the right health plan for you.

The "Face Behind The Blog"
Tuesday, July 24, 2007
I had second thoughts doing this taggie by cuz Girlie since the face is all over this blog. Anyway, I should still post a picture of me that has never been seen before- the unglamourous vanidosa. Yes that's me straight out of the shower. A Filipina, Christian blogger, based in Sta. Ana, Manila, Philippines married to a loving but sometimes insensitive guy named Rey.
I have two beautiful (from a mom*s opinion) girls, Rhea Marie, a graduate of Medicine now trying out a graveyard shift (8:00 pm to 5:00 am) job in a Canadian firm evaluating and approving Insurance claims to earn for her vanities. She*s hopefully taking the medical boards on February, 2008. She got married to a cute guy named Job, an Optometry graduate before her 18th birthday and now have 2 beautiful and smart girls aged 11 and 8. So that makes me a young granny, oh gosh!
My youngest is Reyna Bianca *Queenie* a 14 year old high school freshman at O.B. Montessori Center, a brat who hates studying but loves to dance, sing, watch DVDs, eat and sleep.
I am a SAHWife and an Executive (duh!) since our Office is just a doorstep away but most of the time out on (un)official tasks except for client calls and meetings. I work in a family owned company of Rey*s (Radar Security & Watchman Agency) a Security Agency providing security guards, etc. to business firms and I head the Operations.
Approaching my Golden Year, I live up to my being a Vanidosa trying hard to stay fit and firm despite the uncontrollable aging process, thus the blog Vanidosa. Unfortunately, I never learned how to cook though I supervise all the household chores. Thanks to all my dependable *helpers*.
It*s hard to admit but at times I*m becoming more moody, cranky, sluggish, lazy and bored. I*m trying hard to be out with good friends and to regularly attend belly dancing sessions with cuz every Mondays and Fridays (with Queenie) to keep me up.
Some of the blogs that I know which put up picture(s) of me are :
And here's the instruction to this meme :
1st step - Post a short blog article that includes a photograph (or a series of photos) showing the face behind your blog. If you already showed a photo somewhere on your site (such as in your about page), then make your post more interesting and choose a photo that’s not currently online.
2nd step - Include links to other people that have displayed a photo, or include their photos in your post, adding a reference.
3rd step - Tag as many others as you like in your post to spread the meme.
4th step - If you link back to me here and send an email I’ll be sure to include links back to you.
Each person tagged should create their own post and repeat the process.
Wonderful People I'd Love to Tag:
Noemi and Emmyrose

We are (now) Pet Lovers
Tuesday, July 10, 2007
Not until 2005 which is the Year of Dog that we decided to own one with my special request to hubby for a Shar-pei, those wrinkled kinds. One time, when we were doing our mall rounds, we happened to pass by a pet shop and saw this 2 month old Pug in the glass showroom looking so cute all eyes at me like begging and saying *please adopt me*. Hubby, I and the kids all agreed to take him home right there and then. So there, we named him Popoy. A week after hubby came bringing along a puppy Dachshund we now call Totoy. And just recently, my daughter Rhea brought home two poodles one after the other in a span of two weeks for her two little girls, Choc-nut for Kisses and Chestnut for Keren.
Pets need a lot of attention and special care too. Feeding them is just not enough. We give them vitamins and bring them to the Vet when they are sick. We treat them like members of the family and brag about how much I love them that I wear uniquely designed Dog t shirts and sweatshirts with their faces printed on them.
This site - Dog t shirts and sweatshirts features the work of pet photographer Vincent Strangio. They sell uniquely designed dog shirts, sweatshirts, dog cards, mouse pads made with state of the art equipments of high quality print image with high photo quality not just mere transfers or screen prints that peel or cracks and does not have the rubbery feel like other ordinary print you see elsewhere. Best of all they offer a 100% money back guarantee if you do not absolutely love their work.

For Wig Lovers
Tuesday, July 3, 2007
Wigs have always been my fancy since I was younger. Most of the time I travel, I always bring home a wig, a few hair accessories and just recently lots of hair extensions with accompanying hair extensions of different colors with accompanying gadgets for DIY purposes. I’ve been contemplating reasons why this interest for wigs came about. Just like me, I remembered my mom the senior vanidosa had a few collections too.
When I was growing to be a teeny bopper, I wore long thickly strand straight and shiny hair to everyone’s envy not until I was in college when I met this young aspiring gay beautician who became my friend. I was his frequent visitor in his salon and as often as that, he would use to dye my virgin hair then. More often he would bleach it first before applying streaks of different colors ranging from brown to fuschia, deep red or even yellow and I would look like punk. That was the time my hair got damaged. From then on my hair started to get brittle and coarse. Adding up to the trouble was the premature growth of grey hair which is a genetic problem so I needed to have a regular monthly schedule of root dyes.
For Wig Lovers out there check WigSalon.com They sell NAME BRAND medical quality WIGS, at discounted prices. They have a uniquely easy site to navigate and learn about colors and styles. They have been in the business since 1969 and is the world's oldest comprehensive wig site.
