[SPONSORED POST]: RIBENA® SPARKLING CANS

Hello! I'm back from my exams and hopefully I manage to pass my finance & tax without having to retake my mod while proceeding to my last semester of my university life. 

I know that it has been a while since I've updated my blog. I have so much I want to write up so keep your eye crossed for those!

Before I begin, I was super stocked when Media Flair and Suntory Beverage & Food Limited(SBF) contacted me to review my all time favourite drink- Ribena. I've been an avid fan of Ribena since I was a young girl. Also, if you remember I'd a review of Ribena's NEW Pineapple & Passionfruit Drink‏ back in September 2015 too.

Now, Ribena has recently introduced a sparkling vibrant of Singapore's all time favourite blackcurrant drink- Ribena® Sparkling Cans.

Quench your thirst with this fizzy goodness as it is free from artificial flavour and colour. This refreshing drink is naturally sweetened and flavoured by the freshest and finest New-Zealand-grown blackcurrants. One of nature's true superfoods, New Zealand blackcurrants boasts of high antioxidant levels, and various vitamins. With one of the lowest sugar levels as compared to other carbonated drinks. coupled with 24mg of Vitamin C content, Ribena® Sparkling Cans is a healthier choice, and the perfect beverage to be shared with your family and friends, and the sparkle of your life. 

 To be honest, I do not drink & do not like carbonated drinks. I am so accustomed to the sweet smooth liquid that Ribena carries but surprisingly after a few gulps, it does felt refreshing and certainly a best way to beat the heat too. Besides that, I like it that it is not too sweet and making it a guilt-free treat, it taste great and I can see it will appeal to most consumers. 

Ribena® Sparkling Cans is available at all leading supermarkets, convenience stores, and out-of-home premises island-wide. For more information on Ribena®, please visit https://www.facebook.com/ribenasingapore/?fref=t.

[Sponsored Post]: Kotex LUXE Ultrathin Overnight

Are you one that make compromises during the time of the month? 
When you have your period, you need the assurance that your sanitary pad provides you reliable absorbency with no leakages. After all, what could be more embarrassing than having a period stain on your skirt? 

'The pad that will help you realise that overnight period leakage is never your fault.'

Sounds familiar? Yes, that's the tagline for Kotex LUXE Ultrathin Series which I would be reviewing it today. 

The ALL-NEW KOTEX LUXE® Ultrathin pad which fulfil all your period needs- EXPERIENCE UP TO 3X FASTER ABSORPTION! The new revolutionary pad where softness and dryness come together. Now you can feel fabulous and on top of your game even on your period days, no more compromises! 

How pretty is the packaging? Best part of it is...it comes with a drawstring function where i could secure the bag of pads properly in my bag without spilling out and cause a mess. 

The pads also come with 4 different vibrant colours unlike other brands. 
Don't they brighten up your days? 

The new KOTEX LUXE® Ultrathin pad has 3 wonderful features which makes this an awesome pad as compared to the other brands, especially for the 32cm long pads which is for heavy flows. 
1) New Honeycomb Liquid - Locker specially designed to rapidly absorb and lock away fluid to help prevent back-flow so that your skin feels dry and comfortable.
2) New Ultra Comfort Cover - Specially designed to deliver both dryness and softness, helping provide the ultimate experience of a high performance pad. The honeycomb centre helps keep your skin dry, while the surrounding soft cottony surface helps provide intimate care for your skin. 
3) New Surround Lock Protector - With surrounding embossed star-contours designed to help provide you with additional security and leakage protection.

Tried & Tested
Kotex LUXE Ultrathin Overnight VS Sofy Body Fit

Everything is done fair & square!
(FYI that was not real blood! I did some colour mixing duh!) 

One way to tell whether blood is absorbed to the centre core is to observe the colour of the blood on the pad surface. The brighter or fresher the colour, the nearer the blood is to the surface, indicating higher chances of backflow and dampness. Conversely if the colour appears a duller red, it indicates that blood has been effectively absorbed so that you feel dry, confident and able to do all the activities you want without having to worry about your period!

My Verdict: Sanitary pads are either cotton type or plastic netted. Each lady's skin is different, with some preferring a soft touch whilst others may prefer a netted top layer. I'd prefer a soft & cottony type of pad(Sofy) but for the absorbency wise, I'd go for the KOTEX LUXE® Ultrathin pad as it doesn't cause any leakage for me when i toss or turn in bed. 

KOTEX LUXE® Ultrathin pad is priced at $5.95 per pack at all supermarkets & convenience stores!
