Dishwashing is one of the many tasks on my working mom’s long to-do list. As simple as it may seem, washing dishes honestly eats up my time. When you have work-from-home responsibilities and children to take care of, a simple house chore like dishwashing becomes a struggle to bear. That’s why I embrace any form of help, even if it comes from a home appliance.

I’m so grateful tobe a mom in a generation where technology does wonders to make our life easier. Thankfully, I discovered Monarc Tabletop Dishwasher. It’s an ideal appliance for busy moms like me, especially during this quarantine period. The Monarc Tabletop Dishwasher allows homemakers to spend less time doing the dishes and more time for career, self-care and their family.

Aside from the fabric itself, the product we use to wash our clothes and linens may cause allergic reaction to sensitive skin. That’s why I am extra careful when it comes to caring for personal items used by my family. I used to refrain from using fabric conditioner for fear that the chemicals it contain might be too harsh for the sensitive skin of my family members.

I’m really glad that I learned from social media about Downy Hypoallergenic. Initially, I tried it on my children’s clothes. I’m really happy that my kids didn’t experience any skin irritation or allergic reaction after that. Finally, I found a gentle fab con that I can use to soften and freshen my kids’ clothes without me worrying about my children’s skin.

2020 will be remembered as the year that changed our perception of health. Our global health situation has affected us critically, and required us all to make well-being a top priority. As a mom, I put utmost importance not only for my personal well-being but most especially for the health of my family.

Thoroughly washing our hands with soap to eliminate germs is one of the unforgettable lessons we’ve learned from this pandemic. If only we can also apply the same protection when it comes to our very own clothes, we can protect our family from germs that cause musty odor and infections.

Washing clothes with detergent alone is not enough. Sometimes, clothes still smell awful even after washing because there are unseen germs left. Science tells us that we need to dry clothes under the sun to effectively get rid of germs, but just like other moms, it’s a challenge for me to dry clothes under the sun because of space limitations and the unpredictable weather in our country.

In search of a way to thoroughly disinfect clothes, I found out on social media about Downy Antibac. I used to think that Downy is just useful for softening clothes, but this new Downy product promises to also eliminate germs. Since I was curious if it could really help get rid of odor-causing germs, I decided to give it a try.

It’s the first time I’ve used a fab con that can give maximum germ protection. From the makers of Safeguard, Downy Antibac can kill 99.9% odor-causing germs on our clothes. It contains ingredients that prevent the growth of germs and minimize bacteria population, which causes bad smell on clothes.

Though I don’t see if there are really no germs left on the clothes, I’m satisfied that the clothes have no nasty smell which usually comes from germ buildup. Our clothes really smell fresh and clean.

I used to think that using fabric conditioner for my kids’ clothes is a big no-no. While I really wanted to try it to freshen and soften clothes, I was hesitant because I know that fab con is very allergenic. It contains chemicals that might be too harsh for children’s sensitive skin.

Good thing I discovered Downy Hypoallergenic through social media. The word “hypoallergenic” in this new Downy variant gave me hope. Finally, here’s a gentle fabric conditioner that can do wonders for my kids’ clothes without irritating my little ones’ skin!

Since I was really curious if this Downy is indeed “hypoallergenic”, I decided to give it a try. I used it for my girls’ clothes, towels, blankets and bedsheets.

What I like best about Downy Hypoallergenic is that it’s dermatologically tested with 0% dyes and preservatives. This stops me from worrying about chemicals that might trigger allergic reaction on my kids. But despite having no added harmful substances, it’s amazing that Downy Hypoallergenic leaves a mild scent on clothes, making them smelling fresh after every wash.

With so much on our plate, we moms really need all the help we can get. Many of us wish for a helper who can do some of the household chores so we can have more time for the family or for ourselves. Sadly, not everyone has the luxury of having a trusted helper nowadays.

Here’s good news! There’s a robot willing to help clean our homes anytime of the day. Meet Botbot, a smart and easy-to-use robot vacuum cleaner from Monarc Ph which is perfect for us multi-tasking parents. It may seem like a dream, but it’s real. I’ve actually tried it myself.

Vacuuming and mopping are two exhausting household tasks I wish to escape. These are not only physically tiring but also time-consuming. Thanks to Botbot for ticking these tasks off my list!


Botbot is smart enough to switch among various cleaning modes to meet different cleaning requirements. The best part is that it effectively vacuums and mops away dirt, hair, crumbs, and dust.
