Liza Soberano Opens New Business | HOPE Hand and Foot Wellness

Liza Soberano, one of the most beautiful faces in showbiz industry and a great actress, is now a certified entrepreneur. She recently entered the wellness industry with her very own HOPE Hand and Foot Wellness.

I was absolutely stoked when I got an invitation for the launch of her new business because that meant I get to see her in person! I've always admired her beauty but I admired her even more when I attended the event. I realized how beautiful this person is, not just on the outside but also on the inside.

Burt's Bees Daisy White Exclusive Blogger Launch

One of my favorite lip balms would have to be Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. Not all lip balms in the market works but this one is really moisturizing and it is made of natural ingredients so it also gives love and care for your lips. Last May 9, 2014, they launched their newest skin care line which is called Daisy White and I was really excited when I was invited.

The Burt's Bees Daisy White Blogger Launch was held at a very fancy restaurant called Le Jardin at W Fifth Building, Penthouse Floor at BGC. Everything about the event was just so classy and bright.

Here are the complete products from Burt's Bees Daisy White line. These products contain white daisy extract which is known to regulate skin's melanin production that will result in a brighter and more luminous complexion. They have the Daisy White Facial Cleanser, Daisy White Facial Toner, Daisy White Serum, Daisy White Eye Cream, and Daisy White Moisturizing Cream. They all smell so good and I've tried a couple of these products already but more on this in a separate blog. :)

In line with the event's theme, we were asked to wear white. I don't really have a lot of white clothes because I don't like wearing white so here's the closest top that I found in my closet.

While we were waiting for our lunch to be served, we had a mini photo shoot with top photographer, Shaira Luna. We were required to wear a flower crown and we could either make our own or just wear their ready-to-use flower crown. Although there's an instruction card on how to make a flower crown, I decided to just wear the ready-to-wear one because I'm not really good in crafts and stuff like that. Hehe!

They even have hairstylists at the event so we can have our hair styled for the mini photo shoot. Cool! The photos will serve as one of our souvenirs.

I didn't ask for a bonggang hairstyle, I just had the ends of my hair curled. :)

Burt's Bees Lip Gloss samples were also laid out on the table so we could try and use it for the mini shoot. I chose the shade Evening Glow because it's red. I loved it, by the way. It's not sticky and gives just the right amount of sheen on the lips.

Ta-dah! Here's me with the flower crown! Haha! It was my first time to wear one. Bagay ba? ^_^

Careline TVC Press Launch with Julie Anne San Jose

One of the local cosmetic brands that I usually recommend to younger generations who are just starting to explore the makeup world is Careline. 1) Because it is affordable and 2) it is really designed for teenagers. Careline is like the baby of Ever Bilena, which is also a very famous local cosmetic brand here in the Philippines that is known for its very affordable price range. Ever Bilena created Careline which offers a powerhouse of Vitamin-E enriched and oil-control formulated products ideally made for young girls.

Last April 30, 2014, Careline launched their newest TV Commercial featuring their newest ambassador, Julie Anne San Jose whom I think is a perfect fit for the brand. She has a very fresh and bubbly personality, not to mention her multiple talents in singing, dancing, and acting!

The concept of Careline's newest TVC revolves around the brand's characteristic against a backdrop of youthful hues and elements. It highlights their top products such as the Careline Lipstick, Careline Oil Control Face Powder, and Careline BB Cream, of course, rocked by its new, talented, beautiful endorser. The new Careline TVC features the song "It's My Time" which Julie Anne herself took charge of during the arrangement. It's a pretty catchy song.

Here's a video of the new Careline TVC that I found in YouTube uploaded by Marie Grace Mercado:

Here are a few photos that I snapped during the Careline TVC Press Launch:

Here's a photo of me with fellow beauty blogger and YouTube beauty guru, Shebby Liquete :) Both of us holding our hashtag Careline catchphrases!

Here we have Ms. Demi Calansingin, Careline's Communication Specialist :) 

Careline was also very generous to give the guests a loot of Careline products! Yay! Thank you so much, Careline! :)

It's a shame that I didn't get the chance to have a "selfie" with Julie Anne San Jose but I did capture a few moments of the event in my vlog! Here's the embedded video:

The new Careline TVC is all about encouraging young girls to be confident and beautiful in their own skin like Julie Anne, a perfect role model. By using Careline cosmetics, they can transform from ordinary to pretty just as how its new tagline says, "Be pretty, go Careline!". - Careline Cosmetics

Don't forget to like Careline on Facebook. Careline is available in all leading department stores and malls nationwide!

Stay awesome and accomplish your mission! :)

Pretty in Pinkbox Event: Unveiling New Products and the New Face of Pinkbox

I remember when I was still in High School and College, I used to buy accessories from Pinkbox. I love their earrings and though I'm not fond of wearing hair accessories, I always adore their cute headbands and ribbons and I usually buy gifts there for my nieces. I also love that they customize accessories. I actually had two earrings customized for me which are both letter B dangling to stand for my nickname, Bing. I also had a customized phone accessory which spells YUM and as some of you already know, it is my and my boyfriend's term of endearment. :) Until now, whenever I visit the mall and see a Pinkbox store, I just have to go inside and check out their new stuff and cute nothings. They also have cute notebooks and pens which I used to collect when I was younger. To summarize this all, yep, I am a fan of Pinkbox. That's why I was filled with joy and excitement when I was invited by the brand manager of Pinkbox, Ms. Liz Lanuzo, to attend their Pretty in Pinkbox event!

It's "Pinkbox" so I am already expecting a lot of cutesy, pink and girly stuff on the event and too right I am, the venue was just so girly and there's pink and pastel colors everywhere. So Pinkbox! :) The event was held at Zarzuela inside the new wing of Edsa Shangri-la last July 25, 2013.

Look at that adorable table set-up! Everything was dressed in Pinkbox! Haha!

When you take your seat, you'd be greeted with your very own Pinkbox basket of goodies and cupcake! :)

Upon registration, the guests all received a hair elastic with a rose on it. Of course, I chose orange to represent the color of my blog. ;-)

Everyone also enjoyed delicious Filipino food from Zarzuela. My favorite is the grilled puting keso sandwich!

The program was hosted by the bubbly Tita K! Here she is with the Pinkbox owner, Ms. Nelly See, talking about how Pinkbox had started and how it progressed. Who would've known that finding the right accessories for a daughter would turn out to something like this? Now, Pinkbox is one of the top accessory brands with over 40 retail locations offering wide range of one-of-a-kind pieces!

The new look of Pinkbox was also revealed during the event. Pinkbox stores will be revamped soon and we caught a glimpse of what the new Pinkbox stores would look like. It was designed by Heim Interiors and I can't wait to visit their newly designed stores soon. It's just like you're in your own home. :)

Here in this photo is Ms. Liz Lanuzo, talking about the new offers of Pinkbox. They recently came out with handmade accessories and styling services! The thing that really caught my attention was the Pinkbox Kiddie Salon which your little girls can experience on their birthday celebrations and other events! Also designed by Heima, a mobile salon will offer services like hair styling, nail art, and glitter tattoos! Isn't it awesome? :)

Check out these cute and adorable handmade accessories from the Pinkbox Handmade Collection. Prices begin with P59.75 only!

Pinkbox also wants to let everyone know that their accessories are for all ages that's why they also came up with the Li'l Belle Infant Line. Now, even your little babies can look just as stylish and fabulous as you with these artfully crafted headbands and bonnets made with the softest material to guarantee comfort. It's affordable, too! Prices begin with P69.75 only.

And of course, the highlight of the event! Pinkbox unveiled their new brand ambassador and muse and it's no other than Ms. Verniece Enciso! I absolutely agree that she is the perfect face of Pinkbox! She has been a fan of Pinkbox and as what she said, being the ambassador of Pinkbox is a dream come true for her. Congratulations, Verniece! :)

I really enjoyed that afternoon. I was able to be with my blogger friends and got the chance to meet different beauty and fashion bloggers. We even got to take home some goodies! :)

I will post a separate Pinkbox haul very soon. :)
