Discover the secret to Long-Lasting Freshness with Downy's Law and Odor

The #SarapKatabiNgNagDowny campaign reinforces the importance of keeping clothes fresh, odor-free

When it comes to preserving the freshness of our clothing, it’s not only the outdoors that spoils it but even in the comfort of our homes. Especially with the current weather, we can experience bad odor in our pambahays making it borderline “illegal”, a valuable lesson that a couple of citizens learned the hard way with Downy’s “Law & Odor” campaign.

One case involves a smiling Mavi Velasquez, son of Team Payaman member Marlon Velasquez Jr., more commonly known as Junnie Boy, and Vien Iligan out to buy taho, only to find himself unexpectedly standing in a courthouse. The reason? The vendor detected an unpleasant odor emanating from his clothes, leading to a judge declaring his mabahong pambahay guilty.


Momfluencers’ Laundry Realizations

The new Downy campaign highlights an important laundry fact that using only detergents is not enough to keep clothes fresh and odor-free, even on our pambahay. A handful of “momfluencers” shared their personal experiences on this, leading them to realize #SarapKatabiNgNagDowny.

Mom content creator Odille Dagooc, more commonly known as Momshie Odille shares about an unforgettable incident when her mother-in-law made a surprise visit to their home and embraced her children However, instead of a smile, her mother-in-law's face turned into a stink face, as Momshie Odille’s in-law asked her, “Bakit ang baho ng damit ng mga anak mo?” The momfluencer was stunned and admitted that, back then, she was only using Downy on their family’s outside clothes. From that moment on, she decided that “lahat ng damit, dapat naka-Downy.”

Ulya Nikita, also known as Mama Ulya, echoes the sentiment, stating, “I’ve been feeling good when I smell good, but perfume and ligo are not enough.” She emphasized that all her clothes have to be good-smelling, “not only my panlakad.” Other influential moms like Regina Capiral (Mommy Chin), Macy Naguit (Mommy Macy) and Janie Tan (Mommy Janie) also support the message that even pambahays deserve the freshness of Downy

Secret to Long-Lasting Freshness

Downy Sunrise Fresh features a classic, fresh fragrance with an explosion of floral notes. Meanwhile, Downy Garden Bloom presents a delightful scent that’s sweet, flowery, and refreshing. Both deliver long-lasting freshness (up to 24 hours, tested on terry towel with Downy Sunrise Fresh) and malodor prevention that make clothes soft and easy to iron.

Downy Sunrise Fresh and Downy Garden Bloom are available in your nearest suking tindahan, leading supermarket, and online on Shopee and Lazada

Career Boost: How to Pick the Right AI PC




Staring a career may feel like it’s all too overwhelming — things are already highly competitive, and now, AI is entering the picture. It is not uncommon to hear about entry-level office jobs being threatened by the emergence of AI, but this may not be the right way to look at things.

When computers first emerged, similar opinions were circulating. However, these machines did not replace human jobs; instead, they became valuable tools for employees. AI might be viewed in the same light, offering opportunities to learn how to use it to one’s advantage and prepare for future job markets. To take full advantage of the latest advancements in AI, one needs the right tools. Ready to take that career to the next level? Here are the AI PC features to look out for.

AI-Readiness
The first step is to check whether the laptop is an AI PC. The easiest way to do so is to look at the processor. If the CPU features a neural processing unit (NPU), it's well-positioned to handle AI processes. Options can include most of the latest-generation Intel Core Ultra series processors, the latest laptop CPU offerings from AMD, featuring AMD Ryzen AI, or the Snapdragon processors.

When choosing an AI-powered CPU, consider the TOPS (trillion operations per second) number under its NPU in the specifications table. The ideal is 40 TOPS or more. It would be much better if the laptop were described as a Copilot+ PC. That means the laptop is designed to provide next-level AI experiences with enhanced security, speed, and personalization options. These laptops feature the latest, most up-to-date version of Copilot — the personal AI assistant from Microsoft. They have a dedicated Copilot key on the keyboard and have easy access to Copilot+ features, such as Live Captions, Cocreator, and more.

The latest AI PCs from ASUS also feature a whole lineup of ASUS-exclusive AI-powered smart tools that make all user experiences pleasant. These include the new ASUS StoryCube, ASUS Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation, and ASUS Adaptive Dimming and Adaptive Lock.

Performance for Any Task

Aside from handling AI, the laptop will also need to do well with many other everyday tasks, such as browsing the internet, word processing, or videoconferencing. Depending on the job type, users may also be required to handle slightly heavier tasks, e.g., running creative apps for image or video editing. Additionally, ample storage for large files is a must.

A laptop well-positioned to handle most work tasks will have an exceptional CPU – like an Intel Core Ultra, a latest-generation AMD Ryzen AI 300, or the all-new Snapdragon processors. All the CPUs mentioned above feature NPUs for AI processing and integrated GPUs ready for most everyday tasks, multimedia editing, or light gaming. At least 16 GB of RAM should be used as a solid minimum. Plus, having ample storage space, preferably 1 TB or more, is advisable.

Flexibility for Working Anywhere

The lighter and thinner the laptop, the easier it is to take anywhere. ASUS offers multiple AI PCs that weigh 1.5 kg or less and have a thin profile of around 1.5 cm or less—perfect for on-the-go lifestyles. When it comes to screen size, something like 15.6 – 16 inches proves to be a sweet spot, with plenty of space to work comfortably but nothing too large.

A robust and long-lasting battery is essential to ensure uninterrupted work from any location. The new ASUS AI PCs provide up to at least 18 hours of seamless productivity on a single charge. This allows users to get through the entire workday without carrying a charger, enabling them to travel light and still have enough power for entertainment during their commute home.

Users need diverse I/O ports to fully utilize any workspace, whether at home, in the office, in a coworking space, or a cafe. They should seek a combination of USB4 (preferably with power delivery and display support), USB 3.2 Type-A ports, an HDMI 2.1 slot, and an audio jack. A laptop with a MicroSD card reader is also highly beneficial, particularly for those working with photography or video footage.

ASUS AI PC that Breaks the Barriers

ASUS Vivobook S 15 is the first ASUS Copilot+ PC. Powered by the all-new Snapdragon X Plus processors and with the latest version of the Windows OS and ASUS AI-powered apps, this 15.6-inch laptop offers up to over 19 hours of battery life. The powerful battery and components fit into a 1.47 cm thin, 1.42 kg light chassis with an impressive 3K 120 Hz ASUS Lumina OLED display. It's a perfect machine for those wishing to use AI to boost productivity or kick off their careers.

 Available in Cool Silver color and with a sleek, modern design that includes a customizable single-zone RGB keyboard (featuring a dedicated Copilot key), this laptop looks great in any setting. And thanks to a full I/O lineup, users will have ultimate flexibility anywhere ― all at an affordable price of only PHP 69,995, complete with the ASUS 4A Quality and Service warranty.

Check out the vast array of ASUS AI PCs that best suit a variety of needs and visit the nearest authorized ASUS stores. For more updates, follow the official ASUS Philippines Facebook page.
