AMW Reports: TBS x World

When The Body Shop invited me to join them in a journey to discover the most precious ingredients around the world, you know it will be a day relaxation.  Not because I am a Beauty Blogger but it is my nature to really understand the products I'm using.  The event is indeed perfect for a "researcher" in me.

No need for research, all the things I need to know from the product --- from the usage down to the ingredients --- are freely exposed and shared in this lovely event.



Relaxing music greeted me, even if SM Makati was filled with crowd and noise, I was able to filter everything out and just enjoy the soft music.

The event was hosted by the beautiful Bianca Valerio, can I have her hair?

Now on to the highlight of the event ---  the Oils of Life

There are 3 precious seed oils from around the world as the key ingredients of Oils of Life.

• Black Cumin Seed Oil - known for its concentration in antioxidants from the Egyptian Nile Valley.
• Camellia Seed Oil - Naturally rich in nutritive oleic acid from the evergreen trees of CHina.
• Rosehip Seed Oil - Rich in Omega 3 and 6 from the Andes foothills of Chile.

These 3 key ingredients and more make up the Oils of Life Rituals.
