Basti Bars

Weekend? What weekend?
It's Monday again tomorrow? Oh my!

Here's what i did over the weekend.

Sneak peek of what my tita ordered. : )
I made 30 pieces of this! Phew!

Thank you G!

Thank you, Kath!

She recently went on a trip and wanted to use our Rose Clay Niacinamide soap to help brighten her face, due to sun tan.

Hope it worked for your face! : )

Thank you MJ and Meanne!

MJ loves her sister and niece so much, she bought soaps 3x last week!

I am so glad they enjoyed the soaps I made!
I got them to model the soaps as well! : )

Happy Friday, everyone!

I made these Pearberry-inspired shampoo and soap for myself.

Perfect for the summer weather!

Thank you, tita Noemi!

She is travelling to the U.S. soon, and thought it would be easier to bring these shampoo and conditioner bars instead of the traditional liquid variants.

I hope she'd love them!

"Happy Mother’s Day to the most amazing woman in my life. 🤍
Inay, thank you for being my strength when I feel weak, my comfort when life gets heavy, and my home no matter where I am. Thank you for all the sleepless nights, sacrifices, prayers, and unconditional love that you continue to give every single day.
I know life was never easy, but you still managed to give us love, care, and a beautiful life. Everything I am today is because of your guidance and sacrifices. I may not always express it enough, but please know that I appreciate every little thing you do for our family.
I pray that God blesses you and Tatay with more healthy and happy years together. May He give back all the love and kindness that you have shared with everyone around you. You deserve all the peace, joy, and love in this world.
Thank you for being not just a mother, but also my best friend, my comfort person, and my greatest blessing. I will forever be proud to call you my Inay."

I thought Ynah may have forgotten to send her message for her mom, but I am thankful that she was able to sned this heart-warming message for her mother.

Thank you for supporting me and gifting your mom this , as this will be your last year as a miss.

"Happy Mother's Day, Mama!
Thank you for your unconditional love, mga sakripisyo at walang sawang suporta samin mag kapatid. I am forever grateful to have you in my life. I love you po . 🌸"

Hya was the last person I asked if she would like the soap because I was also shy to ask her.

Although it might take a while for her and her mom to meet, I am glad that she has a standby gift for her mom this .

Thank you, Hya!

"Happy Mother’s Day, Ma! You mean the world to me. Please take care of yourself because everything I do is for you, too. I hope I’m making you proud and happy, despite my some nonconformist life decisions. Luv u, maaaa 🩵"

Pau, who is the most introvert of them all, was not up to taking her picture. However, I was able to let her hand be the model instead.

Her heartfelt message made me realize how , indeed!

Thank you for the support!

"Happy Mother’s Day, Mama Hydie!

Through all the struggles and challenges, hinding-hindi ako mapapagod na samahan ka. Kakayanin natin lahat ng trials na darating. Ang tanging prayer namin ngayon ay maging healthy ka palagi at malayo sa sakit. We love you so much, Ma! Gagawin namin ang lahat for you because you deserve the world."

Clifford was so game when I offered the soap, after Pau bought one. His message made me tear up and I am so glad that he is one of the sweetest man in our office.

Thank you!!!

"Happy Mother’s Day, Ma 💗 I love our simple moments together, when you ask me for a massage and we just talk, when we go to the palengke every sunday morning, and even our little fights that always end in understanding. Those are my favorite memories with you. Thank you for being my comfort, my strength, and my home. I love you always 🤍"

Thank you, Fe, for ordering two Mango Mandarin a.k.a MaMa soaps for your mother!

This day is all about mothers of Basti Bars Buddies, and Fe, though an introvert, heartily expressed her sincerest gratitude for her mom. : )

I need.. I need.. I need..

What you need, twin?

Me and my eldest sister would playfully call each other "twins with a 6-year gap" ever since people would tell us that we look alike.

Things may have changed since then, but us siblings would always support each other, no matter what.

Thank you twin, for ordering our Tea Watermelon INdigo (a.k.a TWIN shampoo bar) and Rose Clay Niacinamide soap.
