LOCK & LOCK "LOVE TO SHARE" ...












Modernized food storage, with the concept of  air tight and liquid tight containers, was launced by Lock & Lock in the Philippines  in the year 1999.  With revolutionary four locking mechanism and a resilient silicon seal, food is kept fresh for longer without having to worry about any spillage.  Now, Lock & Lock is launching its own cookware line called E-Cook.  The brand is also introducing its own glassware line called Lock & Lock Borosilicate Glass in order to provide its customers a better cooking and dining experience.
 
All the products under the two new lines aims to address its user’s health, safety, and convenience needs when it comes to food preparation.  It is light weight
and has a silicon handle which helps cooks avoid getting burnt. All in all, this is best for those always  on the go, making gourmet meals in an instant. 

Also, they are made from quality ceramic which better insulates heat, cutting cooking time into half, which helps food cook faster also requires less oil to cook food, making dishes that are being prepared healthier for the entire family.  It is made of forged
aluminum with a ceramic coating and is PFOA free with a non-stick surface making it easy to clean.  The Prima series is best when it comes to inductive cooking.


The Lock&Lock Borosilicate Glass can withstand hot temperatures up to 400 degrees, significantly higher compared to tempered glass which can only with stand 300 degrees. 
 

When broken, tempered glass would shatter into multiple small but sharp pieces which will scatter and are hard to see. This makes it dangerous as people are more prone to accidents and will have difficulty cleaning and disposing the broken glass. Lock&Lock glass is not only more durable,  if broken, will only break to 2 or 3 large pieces, making it easier to dispose of and prevents accidents. 

Because Filipinos are known to love food and to encourage the culture of sharing, Lock & Lock launched the "Love to Share" campaign which encourages people to share their
love for food and to share it with other people.  It is through this that  one can value the importance of relationships and sharing oneself with others.



 

Challenge Accepted: The Matrix 8-Inch Cut for Cancer



There are amazing stories of positive change happening every day and Matrix has shown its commitment through the Matrix 8-Inch Cut for Cancer Challenge. Matrix pooled in 30 hairstylists from David’s Salon who donated their time and expertise, as well as more than 200 Filipinas who took on the challenge of cutting off eight inches of their hair for the benefit of children with cancer under the care of Kythe Ateneo. 
 

Mounted as a one-day only event last October 25 at SM North Edsa, Matrix, the No. 1 American salon brand in the world, brought to the Philippines for the first time its worldwide program called Chairs of Change,  allowed salon communities and stylists to make a difference to help address the plight of cancer patients – from cut-a-thons to makeovers to lend a helping hand


 “The Chairs of Change movement celebrates three key types of positive change – personal, professional, and social,” shared JP Thomassin, Professional Products Division General Manager of L’Oréal Philippines. “From encouraging young Filipinas to donate their hair, to professional hair dressers who have volunteered their time and effort, and to sharing this movement to more people who would like to afflict change as well – we are very happy to be able to touch all these three types of positive change with the Matrix 8-Inch Cut for Cancer Challenge." 

TV personality Maxene Magalona and lifestyle blogger Jackie Go supported the movement by being the first to chop off their very own mane to encourage other young women to have a cut worth taking. During the event, Maxene shared how Kythe Ateneo has always been a 
community close to her heart. She has been a volunteer since college days  for activities by Kythe Ateneo because she believes in their cause of uplifting the spirits of pediatric cancer patients.  Jackie Go, through her blog also sent an inspiring call on how young women must keep in mind how much they could do to help others
even through simple acts. When she decided to cut her hair in support of the Matrix Cut for Cancer Challenge, she saw the beauty in this movement.

We are glad that our salon partner, David’s Salon, also took on the challenge of extending a hairdresser’s positive influence beyond the chair and into its own community,” added Thomassin. Over 1,600 inches of hair were cut-off, which will be turned into high quality medical wigs for children with cancer. “The amazing part is – all the hairdressers today have willingly volunteered their time to do the fashionable haircuts of those who have donated their hair.  Guests, media and bloggers also took time to make some tokens for the kids with cancer.
