WOMEN EMPOWERMENT WITH INEX ACTIVE

WOMEN EMPOWERMENT WITH INEX ACTIVE 


PHILIPPINES, OCTOBER 2019 – A new line of workout gear, INEX ACTIVE, was launched last October 23, 2019 at the Mindful Movement Asia Pilates Studio in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig through an invigorating Pilates session headed by Mindful Movement Asia Pilates Studio General Manager Ken Colubio and Pilates coach Regina Del Rosario with INEX ACTIVE Founder and daughter of Senator Pia Cayetano, Maxine Sebastian and Managing Partner Juancho Palacios.

“INEX is short for inexorable which means unstoppable and relentless as we want the name itself to be empowering. We wanted the logo to mean something, so we chose the wolf and the moon. The wolf symbolizes personal power and all that is INEXorable in every one of us; the moon is a symbol of female strength. They say when the moon is full, women are in their highest point energetically. So, we’re hoping that by wearing INEX, women will be able to bring that feeling with them,” – according to Maxine Sebastian.

The event was also graced by notable personalities like Sen. Pia Cayetano, beauty queen-turned image consultant Abbygale Arenas-De Leon, Ms. Earth 2015 Angela Ong, model TV-host Kelly Misa to name a few; and they had the privilege to try and enjoy the newest INEX activewear styles. The seamless structure of INEX ACTIVE sportswear is mainly made up of nylon which is soft as silk. It is also breathable, durable and odor-inhibiting in which it wicks sweat from your skin to fabric’s surface where it can evaporate. They are available in the sweetest pastels to the most energizing neons. INEX ACTIVE is passionate about finding fresh ways for women to express themselves through their activewear and ultimately sharing the joy of an active lifestyle. They are big believers in self-acceptance and self-expression.

This is why they aim to provide a variety of styles that complement every body type and to encourage women expressing themselves and embrace what makes them unique. Another core values INEX ACTIVE want to share to their customers is “It’s Cool 2 Care”. They are committed to slowly but surely shifting to a more sustainable business model starting with their packaging options in which their customer can choose between their reusable pouches and their 100% compostable packaging.

Baliwagenews Travels: Guimaras Island Tour

Baliwagenews Travels
Guimaras Island Tour

Nagbyahe kami mula Cebu papuntang Iloilo. Unang kita ko pa lang ng SeatSale ng Philippine Airlines, nagbook na agad ako. Wala nang isip isip hahaha. Paano ba naman 784 pesos lang roundtrip ticket! Mag-iisip ka pa ba? Kaya isinama ko ang buong pamilya.

*Tip para makapag book ng murang airline ticket? - kapag nakita mo na super mura at seatsale na sa date na nakita mo, wag na mag-isip! I-book na agad... sa mga walang credit o debit card, pwede nmn payment via remittance centers o ang pinaka madali ay via 7/11 (7-eleven) stores. Screenshot everything and bayaran ang reference number.  Ganun lang ka easy, pag walang budget.... ngangaey hahaha sorry next seatsale na lang.

35 minutes lang ang byahe mula Cebu airport hanggang Iloilo airport. Maliit pero malinis ang airport ng Iloilo. Mula naman sa Iloilo City, pwedeng mag jeep o taxi hanggang sa Ortiz Wharf (kung saan sasakay ng ferry/boat papuntang Jordan wharf). Ang pamasahe sa ferry/boat ay 22 pesos para sa regular rate at 18 pesos para sa mga PWD at Senior Citizens. 15 to 20mins lang ay nasa Guimaras Island ka na! Wow! Ang lugar kung nasaan ang sweetest mango. Bakit at paano nila prinoprotektahan ang mga variety nila ng mangga? Malalaman mo sa vlog ko! Watch na dali, may fieldtrip dito at madami kayo matututunan!

VIVO V17 Pro: Shoot Beyond Limits


VIVO V17 Pro: Shoot Beyond Limits

Shoot beyond limits with Vivo V17 Pro 

dual front camera, exclusive selfie apps



There was a time when taking selfies was as basic as capturing one’s close-up image, often to highlight an appearance or a spectacular scenery in the background. While selfie shooters yearned to capture more elements in their frames, they were limited mostly by the technology of the front-facing cameras at that time.

In recent years, advancements in optics technology and software development have given birth to front-facing cameras that offer better resolution and image quality, as well as AI-enhanced photography apps. These, in turn, have transformed selfie shooting, from a mere trend, to a skill, even an artform.

Today, companies like Vivo, are taking the lead in pioneering technology that enhances the smartphone experience. This includes taking selfie shooting to new and higher levels.

Just a few months after unveiling its V15 Pro with the world’s first 32MP elevating selfie camera and an AI triple rear camera, the leading global technology company has already launched V17 Pro, the second flagship smartphone in its V series of midrange smartphones.

Now, improving from its predecessor, the V17 Pro boasts of another world’s first, an exclusive pair of front cameras—a 32MP main camera with f/2.0 aperture and 8MP 105-degree super-wide-angle camera—which ensures clearer and fuller selfies, in whatever environment.

Much like the V15’s selfie optics, the V17 Pro’s dual front cameras are tucked behind the smartphone’s notch-less Super AMOLED Ultra FullView™ Display, nestled in a wide pop-up mechanism that elevates as quickly as it retracts.

With the premium smartphone’s dual elevating selfie camera, users will never need selfie sticks to capture “groufies” or the splendid panoramic view behind them. All they have to do is access the super-wide-angle camera and “shoot beyond limits”.



For nighttime selfies, the front camera gets ample support from Selfie Softlight that lights up dark images and an exclusive Super Night Selfie mode which captures and combines multiple frames into one image to make one’s face stand out, especially in low-light conditions.



There is also a “Pose Master” feature which suggest several poses to match various photo scenes and backgrounds, to make one’s selfies even more creative.

Aside from its elevating dual selfie camera and AI powered and enhanced selfie apps, the V17 Pro also boasts of AI quad rear cameras—48MP main camera, 8MP super wide-angle, 2MP bokeh, and 2MP super macro camera—which can capture super macro images from a distance of just 4 cm., and super wide clear images, even in dark surroundings.

A selfie (right) using the Vivo V17 Pro’s Super Wide-Angle camera captures a fuller background, compared to a typical selfie.
