Timeless' Best Skin Care Cream For Summer Season

Summer is a time for enjoying the weather and the outdoors. However, summer can be stressful- especially for the skin around your eyes. When it comes to the best face creams that work on the skin around your eyes, you want to find something that is hydrating, gentle and natural. Fortunately, Timeless Skin Care has you covered with a variety of creams for all of your summer needs. Here is more on the best summer skin care cream from Timeless for under your eyes. 

The Regenerative Powers of Matrixyl 3000: The Hydrating Eye Cream is a combination of Matrixyl 3000, hyaluronic acid and algae extract. Matrixyl 3000 is a popular alternative to Retin A. While both Matrixyl 3000 and Retin A both fight the formation of wrinkles, Matrixyl 3000 has been shown to be gentler and more effective. Matrixyl 3000 is composed of two peptides that promote the production of collagen and elastin in our skin. 

Hydration of Hyaluronic Acid: Naturally found in the body’s skin and eyes, hyaluronic acid is a powerful hydrating agent that can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water. The Hydrating Eye Cream contains more hyaluronic acid than other skin products, yet it is still gentle enough to reduce wrinkles and sagging around the eyes. 

The Toning Effects of Algae Extract: Known for its toning qualities, algae extract is also a potent stimulant of collagen production. Algae extract is a natural anti-oxidant which means that it can both condition skin and protect it from damage. 

Using the Hydrating Eye Cream: For best results, the cream should be used in the morning and evening. It is important to apply the cream to clean skin that is free of makeup. You can use the cream on the tender skin under and around your eyes. 

If you want to fight wrinkles and ensure a radiant complexion this summer, the Hydrating Eye Cream should definitely be part of your skin care routine. 

School-in-a-Bag on a Yellow Boat: Making Education More Accessible for All.

“In a country where access to education, particularly in communities of the Philippines’ many small islands, is a challenge because of distance and lack of opportunities, we are very excited to partner with Smart for the School-in-a-Bag Program so that we don’t only bring education, but quality education to the doorsteps of the learners. Yellow Boat of Hope believes that while talent is universal, access to quality education is not. With this partnership, along with our ALS teachers and volunteers, we will be able to resolve both challenges on access and quality education.” ~Anton Lim, President and YBOH Cofounder

Smart, Yellow Boat to bring School-in-a-Bag to remote areas and Reigning Fil-Am Miss Teen International Carly Peeters, calls for sponsors of digital learning packages. Her mother hails from the Philippines, is here in the country to encourage individuals and organizations to sponsor a Smart School-in-a-Bag to improve learning among Filipinos in underserved areas.

The School-in-a-Bag package contains: 

• Laptop
• Five Tablets
• TV
• Solar Panel with Batteries
• Educational Content that is donated to remote communities, especially those without electricity.

Carly Peeters, is the ambassador of Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation (YBOH), whose promoting the School-in-a-Bag. Primarily provides boats in hard-to-reach coastal communities so learners there would not have to swim to school. The boats are patterned after yellow school buses.

“I call on organizations, most especially Filipino-American communities around the world, and even individuals, to engage and be part of this initiative by sponsoring more School-in-a-Bag kits. The future of the Philippines relies on the education of today’s children. We all have a stake in this, so let us work together.” ~Carly Peeters, Reigning Fil-Am Miss Teen International and Ambassador of Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation (YBOH)

YBOH recently signed a memorandum of agreement with Smart Communications, the creator of School-in-a-Bag, to bring the learning package to more areas. Since launching the program in 2016, Smart and its partner donors have delivered 38 School-in-a-Bag units to 65 learning communities all over the country. Each bag, inclusive of training for teachers, costs P100,000.00.

“We are happy to team up with YBOH and Carly Peeters as we have similar goals – we all want to enable underserved communities in remote areas to have access to education. We at Smart want to introduce them to digital tools and an innovative teaching methodology called the Dynamic Learning Program or DLP. Our experience with initial beneficiaries shows that these can boost literacy and heighten interest in learning.” ~Mon Isberto, Smart Public Affairs Head

Under its partnership with YBOH, Smart will initially donate one bag to an Alternative Learning System (ALS) center supported by the foundation in Caramoan Island, Camarines Sur. The ALS is a learning option for those without access to formal education in schools.

Before receiving the School-in-a-Bag, teachers at the ALS center in Caramoan will undergo training on the Dynamic Learning Program developed by Ramon Magsaysay awardees Dr. Christopher Bernido and Dr. Ma. Victoria Carpio-Bernido.

Anton Lim, President and YBOH Cofounder

Under this method, students learn independently in classrooms 80% of the time by working on activity sheets. The remaining 20% is when the teacher checks on their progress and helps them process what they already learned on their own. Schools implementing the DLP have reported better retention and mastery of concepts among students.



Teachers have also noted that the DLP helps them teach different grade levels at the same time via parallel classes. This can also prove helpful to ALS teachers who handle students at different skill levels.
