FRANCIS LIBIRAN Outs Perfume Line "Dusk and Dawn"

 

I've been covering Francis Libiran shows as a fashion photographer and seeing his work on the runway has always been a treat. Recently, he also dressed up PPOP sensation BINI, and needless to say, he's already put Philippine fashion on the world map because of his countless work in fashion and design. This time, he's releasing a perfume line which he designed with artisan Oscar Mejia III. They call it "Dusk and Dawn" and is making it available this February.

This is a collection of aromatic products for home and a perfume line. They have Dusk to denote grace and romance while Dawn brings in the feeling of hope. They used scents like Bamboo, White Tea, Chamomile and Rose for the former while the other carries a more invigorating Pomelo, Olive, Sampaguita and Patchouli. These then will be used on perfume candles, reed diffusers and anti bacterial linen sprays. It's designed to change your mood, relax so you can improve what you feel while resting or staying at home. This will be available online at their official site francislibiran.com/shop/ or their physical stores and ateliers.

 

Government Transactions on PayMaya: Get the Bills Bayad Rewards

PayMaya has always been a convenient solution for me when paying for bills, groceries, even game cards when I need it. These days, they're bringing even more services to the app that now includes government agencies and give you perks.

PayMaya accepts payments of Social  Security System, Pag-IBIG Fund, PRC, BIR, and you can do this via the new Bills Bayad Promo. If you pay these through the app during February 1 to March 31st (for first timers) you can get a 10% cashback voucher for it. If you've done it in the past, no worries because you can get 5% cashback for it instead. That means, you can get almost Php 200 cashback by doing it on these dates.

It could be contributions, housing amortizations, professional fees, taxes all in one place. You can also go through their official websites and pay via PayMaya. Aside from cashback rewards, you can use a Php 100 voucher to take out of your total payment by using the code BILLSBAYAD when you register, you can also load up in 60,000 partner agent touchpoints around the country to do it. Other than that, you can always tie up your bank through the app and cash in that way which is so convenient for me. You can check PayMaya.com or SmartPadala.ph for more information about it.
