Megan Eco Beauty Launch

 

Has it been a month since my last posting?

Oh my goodness, time flew by so fast for the  month of April and May!  I was so busy doing my PR Consultancy work producting shoots for client and even done some hostings on the side.

I was invited to host Megan Beauty’s Eco Beauty Line launch at SM Mall of Asia Atrium last April 29.  Together with the launch I co-hosted with Ms. World 2013 Megan Young.

Before I talk about the successful launch, Megan Beauty Eco Line launched these following new products all are REEF-Friendly and Skin friendly.

To encourage women their timeless beauty and uniquness, Megan Beauty wanted us to focus on true self to shine fearlessly.

Causes of Hair Fall and How to Deal with It!

If you have concerns or issues on hair fall or hair loss just like Stephanie Lontoc, you may want to watch the first part of the interview HERE.

It was mentioned during our first part of the interview a product called HairReve which Stephanie used.  We all knew it is a plant-based and natural hair thickening serum that worked for Stephanie.  It may work for YOU so I also get the chance to interview Dr. Rica Mallari, Head of Hair Unit, Dermatology Center at St. Luke's Medical Center to learn more about the causes, symptoms and possible solutions to such issue.

Some of the takeaways that I learned during this educational interview?

• Stress can really cause hairloss.
• It is best to use plant-based product in helping our hair grow thicker.
• Hair loss and hair fall can start at an early age.  The youngest patient Dr. Mallari encountered is around 10-12 years old.
• Both male and females suffer from hairloss.
• Shedding of hair happens more on women due to pregnancy / hormonal changes.

All About Hair Fall / Hair Loss #AskAMW

Early this year, I hosted an informative video regarding hair fall. I had fun interviewing fellow mommy Ms. Stephanie Lontoc, and she was very vocal about her experience and stress regarding this matter (thank's Stef!).

Speaking about stress, we are suffering a lot of stress due to COVID-19 and I wanted to put out this video because some of you may be suffering from hair fall/hair loss and is feeling at a loss regarding this matter.

I am glad I was able to interview a professional - Dra. Rica Mallari, Head of Hair Unit, Dermatology Center of St. Luke's Medical Center and a Fellow in Philippine Dermatological Society to enlighten everyone on how to deal with Hair Loss and Hair fall. (Part 2 video on the interview with Doc Mallari to be uploaded soon!) Please watch this video and see how Stef found a solution in a product that is FDA approved and made with natural active ingredients.

Cathy Doll Ready 2 White with Elisse Joson

Cathy Doll Ready 2 White line has always been their bestselling product since the arrival in the Philippines 3 years ago.  I've heard so many great reviews about their White Boosting Cream and I love their Lightening Foam Cleanser myself!

"Why are Filipinos so addicted to whitening products?" - one of the press guest asked.

I personally think not everyone wanted to "whiten" or change our skin color, and I don't judge those who want to change their skin color.  I am very much into products that help "even out" my complexion at the same time give that bright, glow-from-within.

And that's what I get from Cathy Doll Ready 2 White line.

It was an easy task for me to host this event because I am a believer of the brand and the product line.  It felt surreal though to be chosen to host this milestone because Cathy Doll Philippines finally have a face for their Ready 2 White line - none other that our TV's top celebrity Ms. Elisse Joson!

The launch was really energetic!  Not because I was the host (lol) but because it was filled with energy!  It started off with a K-Pop dance number from Ueno!  Then a fashion show came next with models featuring Ready 2 White products with their smooth, glowing skin!  And there was a bonus!  Elisse Joson came out on stage looking so beautiful and sang a song for her fans and audience.

Nailympics: Battle of the Salon Nail Artists 2019!

Nail Art has been an integral part in my Beauty Blogging journey.

I can't even search my own blog post on my FIRST EVER nail art design because I was loaded with Nail Art entries!  It was at least 1 nail art tutorial a week and I've been blogging Daily for so long!

Just like nail art, my own nail art tutorials stopped when I gave birth to Kyle.  Taking care of my nails was the least to worry because I'd rather sleep than to polish my nails.

Fast forward to several years after, when I got more time on hands and Kyle does not demand my schedule as much, I am glad to do more tutorials and even widen the reach to not only Blogs but Instagram and Facebook!

It was a best timing for me for a comeback as NAIL ART itself did a HUGE comeback last week with the first NAILYMPICS: Battle of the Salon Nail Artists organized by Beauty & Wellness Manila, Girlstuff and GlobalLink MP!

And not only that, I was honored to be invited as their first HOST as well!

Nailympics was open to full-time employees (Nail artists, manicurists or nail technicians) of any Beauty Salon, Nail Salon or Spa in Metro Manila.

Salons like David's Salon, Unica Ija Salon, Nailaholics, French Tip Salon joined this prestigious competition.

All contestants get to bring home Girlstuff Products while the 4th, 5th and 6th prize contestants get to take home Php3,000 worth of Girlstuff Products.

What's in store for the top 3?

3rd Prize Winner gets Php3,000 in cash and Php5,000 worth of Girlstuff Products

 including a Nail Polish Display Rack.

2nd Prize Winner wins Php5,000 in cash and Php5,000 worth of Girlstuff Products

 including a Nail Polish Display Rack.

and 

the Grand Winner gets to take home Php10,000 in cash 

and Php5,000 worth of Girlstuff Products including a Nail Polish Display Rack.

I clearly understood the jitters backstage!

Let's Gold Palette Look #AMWIGtv

One thing I love about Hostings, I learn so much during work!

I recently hosted one of the Masterclass from Make Up For Ever with Master Jake Galvez.  It was an early morning call time so I had my makeup and hair done at the event proper.  The make up artist, Raymund, quickly did my makeup and the outcome was amazing! 

One thing I immediately asked of him: "What eyeshadow did you use?"  He showed me the Let's Gold Palette. 

And it wasn't a surprise when Jake Galvez himself championed the palette by creating a gorgeous eye makeup look to his chinita model using the same palette! 

That's it!  I want one!  And thankfully, the Masterclass KIT curated by Jake Galvez himself includes the Let's Gold palette.  

Of course, I had to use it and create my own version of a Golden Sunset look!  Watch my quick video and let me know if you like this look!

Automatic Aura with Cathy Doll

You've probably seen me posted all over my social media platforms last week something quite pink with a double digit... AA.

AA, what?  As what Mr. AMW said.  Automatic Aura is the meaning of AA and that itself explains what we Filipinas want!  Uma-aura everyday!

I am lucky enough to be invited by Cathy Doll Philippines to be their host that day for an intimate Media and Blogger get-together!  The star of the day of course isn't ME (how I wish!)  but I have to give it up to the AA Series!

Let's welcome the AA (Automatic Aura) Family!

Automatic Aura Cream with SPF45 PA+++ (Php750.00)

Automatic Aura Matte Cushion Oil Control SPF50 PA+++ (Php1,100.00)

The crazy group photo with guests that I had to post because everyone just had fun swatching, playing with the cushion pillow and just bond with each other again before the rush of Holiday Season!

Now let's focus on the benefits of using Cathy Doll Automatic Aura Cream with SPF45 PA+++ (Php750.00)

GirlStuff RAVE Neon Collection and Solique UV-Glow Gel Top Coat Launch

You probably know by now how busy I was last week for the launch of GirlStuff RAVE Neon Polish Collection and Solique UV-Glow Gel Top Coat.  Just a bit of background, the owner Dr. Janina Gutierrez-Tan and I go way back!  It was more than 5 years ago when she emailed me to try her polishes!  Because the quality of GirlStuff polishes are really good, I ended up using at least one polish on my every nail art tutorial posts!  Fast-forward to 2 years later, Janina requested for a meet-up and wanted me to help her launch GirlStuff formally!  For someone who loves her polish like my own, I said YES!  And the rest was history! 

Our 3rd launch in less than 2 years!  I'm sure there will be more to come!  Thanks Janina for the trust.

 

Now back to the collection, when we were planning on how to create a bang for this particular RAVE Neon Polish Summer Collection and Solique UV-Glow Gel Top Coat. Janina had a bright idea on turning a bar pitch black in the afternoon because our age may be out of the calendar but we are definitely young at heart!  (Reality: Lola talaga kami, wala kaming alam! hahaha)
