A few weeks back, I was lucky enough to be chosen as one of Benefit’s "Glambassadors" for the new colors they were launching for their They're Real line. I was actually waiting for the official photos from the event to come out, but up to now I haven't seem them. Luckily, I took a bunch of photos on my phone that I can share with you guys! Benefit added blue, green, and purple shades for their super awesome They're Real Push-Up Liners which I was sooo excited about. They also created a brown and a blue version of their famous They're Real mascara. Yup, blue mascara. It's amazeballs.
If you follow me on Instagram, read my ask.fm, or if you've watched my September Favorites Video, then you would know how crazy I am about the push-up liners. I always mention how they're incredibly easy to use and how they are perfect for adding a pop of color to your looks. I really recommend them even for beginners since it comes in the form of a pen which has an Accuflex Tip that is really able to hug your lashes for eyeliner application that is so precise that it seems like a professional did it for you. SWEAR! As for the mascaras, I plan to incorporate them in my Halloween videos this month so that you could see how effective they are. I used the black one for the photo below and as you can see, my lashes look insane!
Anyway, here are some photos from the launch! Below is a photo of the wall that greeted all the guests as they entered the venue. I had no idea they were gonna have our photos wearing the liners framed and set up like this. I was soooo kilig huhuhu. From left to right: Angela Nepomuceno, Nikki Duque, Arisse de Santos, Me, Rima Ostwani, and Janeena Chan!
Here I am with my fellow Glambassadors and Sam Valenciano who took our photos! I was so nervous during the shoot, but Sam and the Benefit team just told me to "imagine you're taking a selfie" and it worked haha! I got over my nerves and I was really happy with how my shots turned out. The event was so much more fun for me because of the other Glambassadors. We all got along so well and couldn't stop laughing. And eating. I love these girls! We also had lots of fun activities to do care of Mystery Manila!
Benefit also collaborated with FreshLook Contact Lenses so that you could really get your eyes to pop by combining the different colors of the lenses and liners together. I wore amethyst lenses which went perfectly with the push-up liner in the shade Beyond Green. I always love it whenever I get to wear contacts cause they somehow make any makeup look ten times better. They make people wonder what it is you did differently with your look without being too obvious and unrealistic. These contacts from FreshLook were so comfortable and didn't give me any problems at all! I get myself a pair for extra special occasions.
#RealSexyColors was the official hashtag for the event. Very fitting!
And of course, no event is complete without my best friend Alex. She and my mom are my number one fans! Thank you sizzy for being there with me through it all!
A big thank you for the Benefit team for allowing me to be a part of all this! It was such an honor. I always have been and will continue to be a Benebabe forever!
#1 cheerleader!!
