Beauty and Art Fair at Vera Studios

After witnessing the launch of Say's eyelash curler, we were able to enjoy the beauty and art fair event. The aim of the event is to recreate the old manila glamour look. There were about 20 ladies present and full of excitement. Drinks and snacks were given during this interactive event. There were so many perks of being a participant! You'll know more about the perks below! A live makeup demo was presented by Say with her model, Tessa. Photos of old manila makeup inspiration were shown in order to capture the essentials of the look. One of the major inspiration was Imelda Marcos. After the makeup demo, participants can opt to have their hair and makeup done by professionals. This is in preparation for the professional photoshoot to be held in the very scenic location of VERA Studios, Intramuros. :D
