SM World of Beauty

Whenever I travel abroad, there is one shopping rule that I stick by.  As much as possible, I will only buy something if it's not available in the Philippines.  There would only be an exception if it's actually more cheaper than what we have in the Philippines.  Otherwise, it will just be a waste of precious luggage space and shopping money. 

During my recent trip abroad, I honestly didn't have the motivation to go inside make-up stores because as I have mentioned, almost all were available here.  To me, this is actually a clear indicator that beauty has indeed gone global in the Philippines.  But if there is one place I love going to when buying make-up, it would have to be The SM Store's Beauty Section.  It's a wonderland of make-up finds and a haven for make-up fanatics like me. 

Recently, I was invited to shop and experience the World of Beauty with The SM Store Beauty Section at SM Aura Premier.  During the event, we were transported to different continents, respective flags where placed on the different beauty brands origins.  To make things even more fun, we were all given Beauty Passports where we would need to complete 8 stamps and participate on different beauty games hosted by different brands.  The pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is a huge beauty loot bag.  Was I challenged?  You bet!  Here are some scenes during the SM World of Beauty Tour:         

At the Cover Girl beauty area, they asked me to guess where the Covergirl + Olay Pressed Powder was in the three boxes.  I have to admit, this was quite difficult.  But after a few tries, I was finally able to guess where it was.


They also had a memory game prepared at the In2It beauty area where I had to match the In2It products by memory.  Scored on this game as well.


Use your creativity to create your own beauty flat lay and share it on Instagram at the Ever Bilena beauty area.  Quite easy right?   


Match the beauty product photo with the description at the Maybelline beauty area.  What's my score?  Aced it!  Haha!


Here are some of the beauty brands with the flags that represent their country of origin.  Of course, we all know Happy Skin is from the Philippines.  It is quite a proud moment when a homegrown brand becomes huge and starts to have a cult following.  Indeed many of us are Happy Skin fans.


Whether for skin care or make-up, The Body Shop, from the U.K. has definitely become one of the favorite brands in the Philippines.  Have you noticed how many of their products you receive during Christmas or special occasions.
