Summer is Hotter with Banana Boat Sunscreen Lotion, Shick and Nuffnang!

My ideal Nuffnang summer is to finally start this other blog of mine. Yipee! Finally! I got a drive to start adding contents to my newest blog! Thanks to Nuffnang Philippines' promo, i was able to start one! In collaboration with Banana Boat Sun Screen Lotion and Schick Razors, Nuffnang Philippines brings 50 lucky Nuffnangers to a special screening of "The Hunger Games"! Another yipee! How slick is that fellow bloggers! I definitely would want to be one of the lucky Nuffnangers, and I love The Hunger Games! 

Anyway, going back to the real deal... What is really my ideal Nuffnang summer? My ideal Nuffnang summer is to spend at least a day enjoying the hot, white sand beach of Boracay Island! Who does not like Boracay anyway? With the perfect white sand beaches, with one of the most romantic sunset views, with the proliferation of some greatest water sports adventures and of course, with the non-stop beach parties and the like, what more can you ask for in Boracay? It would definitely be the perfect summer getaway for almost everyone! And luckily, my friends and I were able to book tickets to Boracay this summer. Hooray for us this summer! And I am going to actually spend my ideal Nuffnang summer vacay! <wink>

And what's the best way to spend this hot summer madness? A bottle of Banana Boat Sunscreen Lotion and Shick Razors! This may be over the top, but hey, we just recently purchased Banana Boat's Sunscreen Lotion yesterday at SM North EDSA's Watsons Philippines Summer Promo, in time for our Boracay summer getaway. We even got free photos and freebies from Banana Boat by simply purchasing a few items. Additionally, I am an avid fan of Schick, for years now! All my razors are strictly Schick. So I got a really good feeling that this post (and promo!) was really meant for me. I just hope so! XD

So why choose Banana Boat Sunscreen Lotion and Schick Razors? Simple! Their tagline alone says everything. Simple taglines but catchy ones... Few words but in depth meaning...

"Shick. Free your skin."

"Banana Boat Sunscren Lotion. We've got you covered."



So what are you waiting for? Enjoy the heat of the sun this summer. Fear not the heat for Banana Boat Sunscreen Lotions and Schick Shavers are here to save the day! These awesome items are readily available in your favorite stores. Grab one now!

The Great Finds of Nivek is Born

It has always been my dream to write - may it be about anything under the sun. I have already started with a 365 project wherein I have showed my passion for creative writing and photography, though both were still amateurishly done. Today, I will be venturing in to another craft - style and trends plus online promos!

I stumbled upon David Guison's blog about male fashion and photography and I was awed. It brought back my liking for these craft. I remembered back then that I am artistically inclined into this trend - the days when weekend parties and the like define myself. Thanks to David, I am now reminiscing these liking through this blog. I have also been an avid followers of people who seemed to make online contests and promotions their own "craft", by participating and winning! It paved the way for me to also join various online contests, mainly on twitter, and luckily, I won on some promos! With that, I am now merging these two great idea into one. Thus, the birth of this blog and The Great Finds of Nivek is born!

At the age of 27 (and counting), I will try my best to incorporate my sense of style into this blog and update a few netizens of the exciting world of joining various online promos. Tag along guys and enjoy!
