ADJUSTING TO THE NEW NORMAL WITH DEFENSIL ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL


Richard and Sarah, who got married in a solemn ceremony earlier this year, celebrated their new life together in quarantine. While being stuck at home was an opportunity for them to spend more time together as a family—planting, painting and playing all sorts of games, they also needed to go through a lot of adjustments as a family.  

One adjustment that they had to do was to look for better ways to protect their family against germs, with the threat of the virus still continuing up until now. They found their newest ally in Defensil 70% Solution Isopropyl Alcohol, which promises a higher level of protection against germs and viruses.  

“We believe in innovative products. Not only does Defensil come from a company we trust, Defensil 70% Solution Isopropyl Alcohol is also recommended by experts,” said Sarah.  

“And since we use alcohol more frequently to sanitize, I also like how it not only kills germs and bacteria, but also has moisturizer to not dry our skin,” she added.  


One way to prevent the spread of germs is regular disinfection of hands and high touch surfaces using a rubbing alcohol. To provide a higher level of defense against germs in the new normal, the Philippine Society for Microbiology is recommending Defensil 70% Solution Isopropyl Alcohol.

NEW NORMAL HOLIDAYS

Celebrating the holidays is surely going to be different for the Gutierrez family this year. For Richard and Sarah, social distancing is something that they’re keeping in mind as they celebrate the holiday season, along with making sure that everyone sanitizes and disinfects using Defensil.  

The family wishes to go on a local holiday trip with family bringing their new ally, Defensil. With this, Sarah shares three simple tips to fellow parents on how to keep their family safe from germs during the holiday season.  

First, social distancing is a must. Second, always wear a mask. It is important for parents to teach their kids the importance of wearing masks, which help to prevent the transmission of the virus. And, lastly, always disinfect with an alcohol that makes sure you and the family are well-defended— like Defensil Isopropyl Alcohol.

#12SubsOfChristmas: MY IDEA OF A PICNIC DATE AT HOME


LIFE BEFORE COVID 

Before the pandemic, our family loved road trips and adventures. It has been our family goal, to travel at least once a year and explore new places. Our travel adventures has brought us to Bohol, Boracay, Cagayan de Oro, El Nido, Coron, Puerto Princesa and Baguio.

Me and my husband, planned this year (2020), to start our own couple travel adventure. We were supposed to visit Sydney last March-April. It was a bittersweet experience though... because my trip pushed through but because of the pandemic, my husband's trip was cancelled. It was supposedly our first out-of-the-country trip as a couple.


LIFE IN A SELF-IMPOSED LOCKDOWN

Ever since I arrived last April 2020, I have not gone out of our village. I only go out > to do brisk walking in the village, or buy at the village market. My husband is the one in charge of going out of the house to buy the necessities.

It was surreal, really, to be living like this. We terribly miss the trips, the fresh air, the long drives, the beach!  But we know that we need to be cautious for our family's safety. We cannot let our guards down, just because we miss and we long to travel. I believe that it is WISE to wait.

The only thing that makes life bearable -- are the food trips that we do -- at home. When we crave for certain kinds of food, we just order online. Or the husband go out and order a take away.

AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT WE CRAVED FOR THIS WEEK:

Our favorite - subway sandwich!  Buti na lang there's a new #SubwayPh promo. 

From Dec.16 to Dec. 31, 2020 -- you can go to your nearest Subway branch and choose from Ham, Sliced Chicken, Roasted Chicken, Sliced Chickenand Ham, Smoked Chicken, Spicy Italian, Pulled Pork, Italian B.M.T., Steak and Cheese, Meatball Marinara, Subway Melt and Subway Club. Buy any of these 6-in variants + 16 oz drink and get your second order at 40% off!




TIPS ON HOW TO ENJOY FOOD FROM THE COMFORTS OF YOUR HOME

1.   It is all about setting the mood. For our Subway experience, we decided to do a picnic set-up. We brought the outdoors in! So we can still picnic on the safe side!  As a certified plantita, I loved the elements of my plant babies in the background. 

2.   Get comfy and relax. Setting up a few cushions and a favorite throw rug, will definitely give out that chill vibe that we all need. Especially for work at home people like us. This picnic idea breaks the monotony of associating the house now as an office!





3.  The most important aspect of a home-picnic >> the food!  We are such huge fans of Subway Steak and Cheese and Pulled Pork! We got our awesome sandwiches at the SM North Edsa, the Block.  

Being at home during these days of pandemic - you just need to be creative and break away from the boring routine. All you need is a little imagination and good food to satisfy your cravings!
