Where: Clinique counter, Rustan's Makati
When: June 18, 2011
Invited by: Charles a.k.a wickeRmoss
the invitation from the wickeRmoss |
When I first heard of Charles' Clinique party, gusto kong pumunta para makita at maka-chismisan sina Charles and her readers and take lotsa pictures. Pero syempre nakakahiya namang pumunta bilang naka-attend na ko ng Clinique Party for Project Vanity readers diba? haha.
PERO, when Charles told me and invited me personally to be there to be her event's official photographer, I was like "HUWAAAAT? ANUDAAAAW? PHOTOGRAPHER NA KO?" lol. Gusto kong tumambling nung time na yun. haha. KINILIG AKO NANG BONGGANG BONGGA! Shete, ngayon lang ako natawag na photographer? hihi. I was like, WOW! Ang SARAAAAAAP ng feeling when someone notices your work. Ang SARAAAP ng feeling when someone appreciates your work. KINILIG AKO. PERIOD. haha. Thank you Charles for trusting me on this one. Another reason kung bat ako kinilig eh dahil personal request pa ni Charles the wickeRmoss yun.
I loooove this girl. This girl's heart is just sooo sincere and sooo generous. Di ko sya kilala dati pero sooobrang gaan na ng loob ko sa kanya nung first time na ma-meet ko sya sa Bobbi Brown Bye Bye Dark Circles collab event niya. Nagkita na kami sa Clinique Party ni Liz pero didn't get the chance to talk to her. Shy type pa ko nun e. haha. Tas sa Bobbi Brown event na uli kami nagkita. Dun ko din na-meet si Sugar of Sugarpao. Tas dito sa Clinique party ko na na-meet si Apple of AppleDapple. I loooove them. Sa online world, napakahirap makahanap ng mga totoong kaibigan. I am lucky nakilala ko sila. ^___^ Tama na emote. I will post another post dedicated just for them. haha.

Anywei, the event was scheduled at 2PM, as usual, I arrived late. I'll save my excuses for that to myself nalang. haha. Being late, pag dating ko, andami nang tao. Busy na ang Clinique counter at ang mahiwagang table sa Clinique counter where all the makeover is being done. At ang kawawang papa E ang nag-proxy sakin as photographer ni Charles habang wala ako. haha. Sorry Charles and thank you papa E. The best ka talaga papa E! You already! Pede mo nang KARIR yan! haha.XD

Charles then introduced me to her readers. I was SUPRISED! Ang pi-PRETTY nila! Nakakaloka! Ibang leveling ang kagandahan ng mga to! While taking pictures nga narinig ko yung usapan ng mga kuya sa kabilang counter. Sabi ng mga kuya, "Lahat sila magaganda." WAW! Kayo na! All of you already! Anudaw? lol. Meh ganung phrase ba? haha. :)) Howell, let the pictures speak for itself.

I also had the chance to meet Trina of thebestsoylatte's mom. Grabeh, di ka na magtataka kung bat ang ganda ni Trina. May pinagmanahan. ;) While tita was having her make-over, as seen on the left photo, a customer kept on asking the Clinique SA what products she used for tita. Ayun, hanggang sa chinichismax niya na rin si tita. Ang cuuute. hihi. Pede nang endorser si tita! lol.

See, pang-Miss U diba? haha. :)) Parang mga mowdels lang. Chos! Anywei, honestly, di ako na-bore sa event. I was very busy taking candid pictures of these beautiful ladies. Sino namang di gaganahang mag-picture kung ganyan kagaganda subject mo diba? Minsan lang magsama-sama yang mga yan, so gora na! Click lang ng click ng camera. haha. Also, we had these yummy fudams from Bizu Patisserie. Sooo yummeh! *nomnomnom*
FOOOOOOOOOOOD |
There was never really a dull moment bilang busy rin kakaikot si Charles para makipag-chikahan with us. Actually, parang never ko sya nakitang umupo that time. Paikot-ikot lang sya nakikipag-chikahan or nagpapatawa samin or sharing beauty and fashion tips. Mejo meh sakit pa sya nang lagay na yan ha. For the love of Clinique! hihi ♥ Mira, Clinique's Product Manager, was also present and was super accommodating during the event. Charles + Mira = AWESOME event! Such very ma-chika hosts.
Mira + Charles = AWESOME collab! :) |
