Let's Talk About Make Up For Ever

I literally wailed when Make Up For Ever, Shangri-la Branch closed down.  I usually shop their for my favorite Concealer Palettes, Pencil Liners, Loose Pigments, Powder Foundation and Contouring powders.

After accepting the fact that they may be gone in the Philippine scene forever, I'm glad I was wrong!  They are definitely back this time, and with a vengeance! This year is Make Up For Ever's 30th Year!

I was invited to a very intimate launch at PINO restaurant.  I knew about Pino restaurant from another blogger friend Patty Laurel.  

I knew it was going to be an "artsy" evening with Life After Breakfast's author, Ms. Alessa Lanot.  I may be artsy in both faces and nails but not on paper, so Tara, Mikki and I shared this "Ugh, not art please" moment!  Little did we know that night was a major stress reliever for all of us! 

Are You Ready for H&M?

I am!

I got super excited during the press preview because I see items that I don't see much from H&M in our neighboring countries!  The collection are chic, very fashionable and trendy and a couple of pieces are timeless! 

The big question is, WHEN?

The Swedish retail brand will open its doors in Mega Fashion Hall, SM Megamall this coming October 17, 2014!  It will be approximately 3,000 square meters of fashion!

“We have been waiting for the best opportunity to be in the Philippines and now the wait is finally over. The Philippines is indeed ready for the next level of fashion and we are so proud to debut our amazing flagship store at SM Megamall! It is such an exciting moment for us to bring fashionable and sustainable design, with good quality at the best price to fashion-conscious Filipinos. At H&M we always have something for everyone, and we can’t wait to welcome all shoppers in Manila to this fantastic store!” says Magnus Olsson, Country Manager of Greater China and South East Asia.

The October opening will coincide with the launch of the brand's Autumn/Winter 2014 collection, a Limited Edition H&M Studio Line.

Brace yourself for good news!

Customers shopping on the opening day will get to experience all of this first hand plus exclusive opening deals! The first 200 in line will get gift cards valued as high as P6,000 each, and opening offers that are up to 50% off. Regular store hours of 10am to 10pm will be resumed on October 20 onwards.

AMW Reports: Inglot's Berry Obsession

Hi AMW Friends!
Advance apology for the cheese-y cover!  I can't help it!  I may be a PRO MUA who has been applying various shades of lipsticks on clients!  But you probably know by now how simple I am with my own makeup!  Who would've thought attending Inglot's Berry Obsession event could change my lipstick life forever?

Yes it did!  Because I am starting to wear deep, plum shade of lipstick!  That probably shocked my toddler and my parents but I feel so confident wearing one!

Backtrack during the event, the launch was held at Niner Ichi Nana.  Upon entry, I see chocolate covered berries (sorry yun talaga unang nakita) then Lipsticks, Nail Lacquers and Lip pencils.  (All in that order)  I have to hand it to the Inglot Philippines team, the event styling was done so well I can't help but flood my Instagram with Inglot Berry Obsession related photos during that day!  (sorry!)

AMW x Benefit Give: Benefit They're Real Push-Up Liner and Makeup Remover

The buzz has been going around on how wonderful Benefit They're Real Push-Up Liner is!  Some of you probably bought one and agreed but most of you are still wonderful, saving up, and hoping someone may gift them this as Christmas Gift!

Well....1 person may get the chance to try this for free!  Together with They're Real Remover (that works so well for the Push-Up Liner) and what else?  A very cute Benefit Pouch!

Excited?

Not so?
Here's the better view of what you may win!  The liner itself is AMAZING!  You can read my quick review HERE.  This liner is close to my heart because I was one of the FIRST few makeup artists who get to know about the product last March 2014 during its launch in San Francisco.  Aside from that,  I went around Benefit Counters to conduct 9 WORKSHOPS! YES, 9!!!  To share to fellow liner enthusiasts how amazing this liner is and why they should include this in their "liner arsenal"!

Still not amazed?  Well, you better try one over the counter OR, better yet...join this contest and try to win this cute set!
