Innisfree Opens 3rd Store at SM North EDSA

I felt the connection between me and Innisfree for so many reasons.

1. Had a great first time encounter inside Innisfree store at Myeongdong Korea EONS ago! (Way before Instagram was even famous!) Filled up my luggage with loads of Innisfree items because I'm a hoarder like that!
2. Was there during the FIRST Store opening of Innisfree at SM Mall Of Asia.  I literally had goosebumps because I was waiting for this moment for too long!
3. During the SECOND Store opening at SM Megamall, I was there with Beauty Blogger friends to learn about Glass Skin technique!  I've been doing a lot of the things I learned and some of you commented how great my skin look even on IG Stories!  (Why thank you!)

And here I am, doing another entry because I was invited to be part of their 3rd store opening at SM North EDSA (the closest branch to me!).  Thank you Innisfree Philippines for always having AskMeWhats in such milestones! 

Here I am, doing that kilig look wearing a yellow Eco-Hankie as my headband!  And you'd think I've got nothing more to say because this is a Third Store Opening.  Guys, you don't know me really! 

I went around the store taking everything in, asking questions and the friendly SAs where there to really explain everything!  What's special this season with Innisfree?

The Innisfree Eco-Hankie Campaign!

USE A HANKIE. SAVE THE EARTH.

The Eco-Hankie Campaign is innisfree’s annual green life campaign since 2010.  It encourages people to use eco-friendly handkerchiefs to help lessen the use of disposable paper tissues.

This year’s campaign theme, “I Play Green. I Like Me.” focuses on joyful moments of PlayGreeners who feel happy & proud of themselves for doing good deeds in their daily actions. It aims to show that Playing Green is not just another boring & difficult environment  campaign. It’s easy, fun, cool; something you’d want to share to your friends.

My Visit at AOJO Store

It has been a while since I last visited SM North EDSA, and over the weekend, I was able to pass by The ANNEX and found myself inside a trendy eyewear shop called AOJO.

If you know me personally, you've seen me sport different eyeglasses and sunglasses because aside from using them for fashion, I use them a lot to protect my eyes.  You see, all my eyeglasses (total of 5) do not have grades in them but I wear them mostly for TWO reasons - to protect my eyes when I use computer (as I purchase those with blue coated lens) as I stay in front of the computer A LOT!  Aside from that, my eyes tend to get easily irritated and I feel more at ease and comfortable wearing glasses (whether eyeglass or sunglass).

Thankfully, shops like AOJO are opening up not only to offer quality frames and glasses but I love the fact that they are inexpensive and very TRENDY!  I mean susuot ka na lang ng glasses, make sure bagay na sayo at ikagaganda mo di ba? :) 

Since its launch in 2013, AOJO is a Hong Kong based brand and has expanded its presence to over 400 stores around the world.  With a wide variety of high quality eyewear, Aojo offers its customers functional, stylish and fashionable optical frames, sunglasses, PC glasses and reading glasses to all its customers.

Once you get into the store, it is easy to get overwhelmed by the HUGE array of collection.  Here's a tip for you coming from someone who were able to pick my favorite frames, had an eye examination and took home my specs in a total of 1 hour! (Minus 30 minutes waiting time for the lens to be installed)

Boulangerie22 14th Store Opening at SM North EDSA

Aside from a cup of coffee, I have a soft spot for breads, yes...BREADS!  I used to "literally" lived on bread alone and survived without rice (that was eons ago of course I can't do it now!)  

But back to my topic, I am a bread lover and was actually a super loyal customer of Boulangerie22 ever since they opened up stores after stores a couple of years ago!  I can say I'm a loyal customer and I know all their breads pretty well....by heart to be exact.

That's the reason why I held one of my #AMWWorkshopSeries at B22 Makati branch early this year.  And to prove my love for the brand, I got an invite for their 14th store opening at SM North EDSA and actually went there...at 10am.

Can you see that happy and satisfied smile?  ---> that's definitely a sign of true love :D

During the opening date, the first 222 customers get to purchase cakes for 50% off while another 122 customers get to join the 22 seconds challenge!  22 seconds challenge means you get to put all the bread you can in a medium sized Boulangerie22 bag for the price of Php22.00!  No wonder the line was just as long as a line of a K-Pop concert!  It was crazy yet KUDOS to B22 staffs as everything went smoothly!  

The Boulangerie22 SM North EDSA branch is spacious, all the breads and cakes are neatly displayed in a way you get to see EVERYTHING at once glance!  I like how clean and spacious everything looks making it a wonderful "bread shopping experience" for anyone going in the store.
