My husband loves to cook and I would be the one who'd be buying the cookware, cooking utensils, accessories, kitchenware, and everything related to cooking.  These days, I've been eyeing on cookware that works on all stovetops: Induction, Gas Electric, Ceramic, etc.  I've found a brand of cookware on my favorite e-commerce site, Shopee!  It's Maxflex Premium Stainless Steel Cookware!

When I purchase, I make sure that it's of good quality and then affordability.  I don't just look at the price tag and get the cheapest one in the market.  When I do an important purchase, I make sure that it's value-for-money, durable, and versatile. 

I've found all these qualities in all Masflex cookware!  To be specific, we've been eyeing on this Masflex Limited Edition 6 piece Premium Stainless Steel Cookware Set with 20 cm Casserole. 

 

16cm Premium Stainless Steel Saucepan with Glass Lid Perfect for cooking sauces such as gravy my kids' favorite. But you could also cook more than just sauces with this saucepan. When we usually reheat sauce-based food or fry in small batches, we also use this. It's very versatile! A saucepan is a must-have for us! Glad that this one comes with a tempered glass lid unlike others.

24cm Premium Stainless Steel Frypan with Glass Lid I don't know any family who doesn't fry their chicken or fish in cooking oil! Even if we have an air fryer, sometimes frying the old fashioned way gives additional flavor to the food! So this is another cookware must-have for us. Glad Masflex has this high-grade stainless steel frypan. More importantly, it comes with a tempered glass-lid that protects us from hot cooking oil splats.

20cm Premium Stainless Steel Casserole with Glass Lid Happy that there's a casserole with just the right size that comes with this set of cookware we're eyeing on Masflex's Official Shopee Store! And yes, it also comes with a tempered glass lid. Our family loves soup-based viands such as Sinigang, Nilagang Baka, and Tinola. For a family of 5, for me this is just a perfect size.

What I like about these are: 

• Made of heavy gauge quality stainless steel
• They have thick Tri-ply Encapsulated bottom for even heat distribution
• Ergonomically designed riveted stainless steel handle and knob
• It's safe to use, durable and will never rust
• They come with a tempered glass lid
• They work on all stovetops: Induction, Gas Electric, Ceramic, etc.
• It's easy to clean and dishwasher safe

Eco-friendly, reusable, washable Masflex White Apron

So for cookware and all other kitchenware and for the love of cooking, check out Masflex's Official Store on Shopee!  Happy Shopee-ng!

NEW BREEZE ANTI-BACTERIAL POWDER DETERGENT WITH GERM ATTACK TECHNOLOGY

I grew up knowing this laundry detergent brand being used by a wais na nanay named Lumen. I see so much of myself in her now that I am a mom of three and deciding heavily on supermarket purchases, among other things.

As a wais na misis myself, I've tried Surf' laundry detergent and fabric conditioner or what I call the Surf Power Combo! Linis at 2x bango na, sa presyong wais pa! I've tried many brands of laundry detergent and fabric conditioner. Usually the more expensive ones are hard to sustain especially these days that we have to manage the budget well. I realized that I can get superior laundry products at very affordable price! Thanks to Surf!

Surf Cherry Blossom Laundry Powder Detergent with Active Clean Technology

I was surprised when I tried this because it actually cleans clothes just like the more expensive ones in the market, because of its Active Clean Technology! It's also superior in removing malodor in clothes due to rainy weathers when we can't hang clothes out to dry in the sun. Best of all, it's only Php5.50 SRP per sachet! Indeed a wais move right?

It's tough on stains and odors and is formulated with ACTIVE CLEAN TECHNOLOGY that makes your laundry whiter and fragrant. It deeply cleans away dirt and unwanted odor while leaving long-lasting fragrance on clothes!

Surf Laundry Fabric Conditioner Blossom Fresh with Sun Bloom Technology

When I was younger, I used to skip the fabcon step during laundry thinking I would save more if I just didn't use fab con on clothes. But the truth is, I'm actually spending more on other things like more ironing time which also means more electricity use. Fabcon is a necessity when it comes to laundry. Best to pair Surf laundry detergent with Surf Fabcon. Surf fabric conditioner lessens wear and tear of clothes, protects the color, makes clothes softer so it's easy to iron, and it also keeps clothes in shape.

The WAIS choice for your laundry needs, Surf Laundry Fabric Conditioner Blossom Fresh leaves long-lasting fragrance on clothes and keeps them soft. Specially made with SUN BLOOM TECHNOLOGY, this fabric softerner keeps laundry smelling fresh. Mas bumabango ang damit under the init! It also has fast-drying action with every wash cycle.
