Get vlogging tips straight from the actress and content creator in her upcoming masterclass with OPPO

Actress and content creator Janine Gutierrez is often noted for her gutsy acting choices, as well as an enviable feed that shows just how strong her beauty and fashion game are. Apart from this, Janine also engages with her following and shows a different side of who she is through her vlog.

Launched in late 2018 with a house tour, Janine’s Youtube channel goes beyond the silver screen and her Instagram feed to fully express her funny and quirky personality. Budding content creators can look to her vlog, full of her takes on viral challenges and interviews with her celebrity relatives (including the iconic Pilita Corrales), to see how they can also get started on their channels.

Here are three of our favorite vlog episodes from Janine’s channel to give you ideas on what to film next:

1. Truth or Drink with Mom 🍷 | Janine Gutierrez

In a game that gives a twist to the typical Truth or Dare, Janine and her mom Lotlot de Leon talk about everything from their showbiz careers to their love lives and even what they think about each other. Highlights from the vlog include Lotlot rating Janine’s boyfriend Rayver, as well as her exes, Janine sharing anecdotes from growing up, and both of them trying to avoid taking a gulp of unknown liquids. Not just fun and games, the vlog also shows Lotlot giving invaluable life and career advice to Janine, and to young moms viewing their episode.

 

2. Cooking in Tagalog Challenge (Lemon Pasta) 🇵🇭🍋| Janine Gutierrez

A skill she admits to picking up during quarantine, Janine challenges herself not only to show off her cooking chops, but also to do the full vlog in Tagalog. Proving she’s not one to always take herself so seriously, Janine introduces her recipe for lemon pasta, enumerating the ingredients and explaining the steps completely in Filipino (who knew pasta translates to pancit Italiano?).

3. Sibling Tag | Janine Gutierrez

Janine’s never been one to hide how close she is with her family, with her siblings making regular appearances on all her social media platforms. In a funny, water tag-inspired game of who’s most likely to, they took their closeness to the next level, revealing which of them is most likely to get married first, break hearts, pull pranks and more.

Want to get vlogging tips straight from Janine herself? Tune into her masterclass entitled Content Creation at Home, set to be streamed live this October 27 on the OPPO Philippines’ Facebook Page. Speaking with Lea Cruz of Unbox.ph, they will be covering vlogging etiquette and content creation basics, including how to come up with ideas when creating and editing videos, tricks on lighting, angles and special camera features to amp up your vlog.

Lucky viewers will get a chance to win special OPPO prizes if they answer correctly during the pop quiz in the masterclass.

 

#ClearlyTheBestYou with OPPO Reno4

Even at home, make sure to show #ClearlyTheBestYou with OPPO Reno4. Taking portrait photography and videography to the next level, Reno4 is equipped with the 32MP Dual Punch Hole Front Camera and the 48MP High Definition QuadCamera system. Ideal for content creation, the Reno4’s camera modes open up realms of possibilities with the AI Color Portrait Mode, which mutes the background into black and white while keeping the subject in real color, and the Night Flair Portrait Mode to upgrade your night photography with bokeh neon effects against a backdrop.

What’s more -- with video platforms being all the rage, Reno4’s camera comes with an epic 960fps AI Slow Motion feature to capture impressive slow motion shots in the thick of the action, as well as the Ultra Steady Video 3.0 to enhance your videography experience.

Busy Nurse Coffee for a fairer, slimmer you

Tweet

Are you looking for a healthier alternative to your favorite coffee drink? There is one coffee brand in the market that not only helps you lose weight; it also helps whiten your skin while maintaining your skin glow.

The Busy Nurse 20 in 1 Coffee Mix is probably the first slimming and whitening coffee mix in the market which contains glutathione and collagen which helps achieve these two goals. It is the brainchild of Mary Rose Yap Zamora, an entrepreneur who is in the business of developing and selling beauty products.

“We started Busy Nurse when we realized that many of the buyers in our shops were looking for healthy coffee but we had nothing to offer them,” Zamora said. “Since all of our products were beauty products, we thought of coming up with a coffee that would make users healthier and prettier.”

As its name implies, the coffee contains 20 ingredients. These ingredients are acai berries, aloe vera, coffee, collagen, grape seed, Green Tea, Goji Berry, Garcinia Cambogia, Inulin Fiber, Lemon, L- Carnitine, glutathione, Mangosteen, Moringa, non dairy creamer, spirulina, senna leaves, stevia leaves, turmeric and vitamin C.

“When you bring all these ingredients together, Busy Nurse Coffee will help burn fat and boost your energy and metabolism,” Zamora said. “The product provides you with natural detoxification, is rich in anti-oxidants and is useful in regulating bowel movement. That’s how beneficial this product is.”

Vitamin C, for example, boosts your immunity and prevents iron deficiencies. Lemon, on the other hand, is a good antioxidant that removes free radicals from the body while L Carnitine is a metabolism booster that aids in weight loss.

“Where in the market can you see a product that combines the best qualities of 20 ingredients and comes up with a coffee that not only whitens your skin but also helps you lose weight?” Zamora said. “That is Busy Nurse Coffee for you.”

The product was introduced to the market in May 2019 and so far, it has almost 3,000 local and international distributors. In such a short span of time, it has already been able to reap a number of significant rewards for Zamora.

Among the awards it has received so far include the 14th Gawad Pilipino Outstanding Herbal Coffee of the Year; Golden Dragon Awards of Excellence for the “Most Trusted Herbal Coffee Mix Products Provider;” International Icon Awards for Business Leadership and Achievers for being the “Most Trusted Herbal Coffee Mix Provider;” Gawad America Awards for 2019 Most Outstanding Filipino in the Field of Online Entrepreneurship.”

The product has also been featured in the ABS CBN shows “My Puhunan” hosted by Karen Davila and “Swak na Swak Ang Good Vibes Show ng Bayan.” Korina Sanchez also had the opportunity to meet the brand through an online interview Zamora was also interviewed by Korina Sanchez.

“These awards are a testament of the hard work that we put into the development of Busy Nurse Coffee,” Zamora said. “These awards also recognize the many benefits that our product has to offer and we would not get the attention of these very well respected journalists if it was not a good product.”
