Be Healthy Inside and Out with Watsons

Being a mom has great responsibilities, tons of work, yet under-compensated/unappreciated. Charot! 

But what I really meant was we got too little time to finish things on our to-do list that even a li'l pampering for ourselves was pretty much set aside. Just look at my hair, looking so dull and frizzy. My skincare regimen was put on hold too for I'm always too tired na the past few weeks getting ready for the school opening. Got a fair share of bad habits too: I don't follow the 8-10 glass of water thingy, sometimes there goes a day that I wasn't able to drink water and will opt for just coffee, coffee, and coffee to keep me awake and some fruit juices to lessen my guilt of not being into veggies. I know this practice is not a healthy habit making me super prone to having a U.T.I.  

That's why this DIY U.T.I test kit I got from @watsonsPh is a super good buy for mommies like me. To have myself and my kids too checked if I have a urinary infection again or doing just fine. 

Having this DIY U.T.I Kit makes me save time as I cut my usual trips to lab testing that might take a few hours or more from our day to day schedule that should be done weekly.

*Disclaimer: I'm using this for me to check myself. If I'm on normal limits, Great! If not, its time to consult my doctor 😊
