Looking good in 2011

MANILA, Philippines –  Every woman is already beautiful in her own right. But she can be more beautiful if she wants to. Looking her best matters to a woman because it boosts her self-confidence. Feeling good is a by-product of looking good.

In this modern age, there are many ways to improve one’s looks. But most of them are costly and would take up a lot of your time. Why risk your money and time when you could change your look in an instant?

Makeup, when applied correctly, enhances one’s beauty. It only takes the right tools and techniques to highlight your natural beauty. At Ever Bilena, one of the country’s leading makeup brands, a woman’s natural beauty is of utmost importance. That is why for 2011, the cosmetic company is offering its loyal consumers nothing but the best.

“For 2011, the colors are eggplant and lime green,” begins Mark Charles Salecina, Ever Bilena brand manager. “Skin is still dewy and natural. For the eyes, the colors are bronze and reddish tint. For the cheeks, burnt red and bright pinks are the trends.” Salecina furthers that the focus this year for makeup is on the lips. “Trends say that fuchsia and deep oranges are the colors of the lips. Eyebrows are ungroomed.”

 To begin the year with a bang, Ever Bilena offers the following products that will help you achieve the look of 2011:
