A Pinoy’s Summer Essentials

It’s no secret that the heat during the summer season in the Philippines is not something to joke around. In fact, the heat index of the country has reached an all-time high at 51 degrees Celsius. The upside? Pinoys and tourists can undoubtedly enjoy its scenic beaches, swimming, and bathing under the sun.

Paired with the high humidity, it has urged Filipinos always to be ready with their summer essentials. Make sure to shop these items from Kultura:
