Femme and fortune

Six of the country’s top designers came together for the very successful third installment of the Philippine Fashion Watch Quartet series. Presented by Metrobank Femme Visa, the well-attended fashion shows saw the transformation of the Makati Shangri-La Hotel lobby into the fashion runway for the works of Rajo Laurel, Dennis Lustico, Ito Curata, Lulu Tan Gan, Hindy Weber-Tantoco and Jun Escario.

Rajo Laurel kicked off the series with a showcase of geometrically inspired pieces on elegant cocktail dresses and evening gowns. Dennis Lustico followed with an impressive collection of feminine ensembles of straight form-fitting skirts, dresses, skinny pants and structured wrap blouses in extreme hues from bright yellow and olive to neutral fall colors of cream, champagne and black. Lulu Tan-Gan displayed her trademark knits ensemble with the versatility of her chosen material with pieces that ranged from simple casual wear and corporate looks right down to formal and evening wear. Hindy-Weber Tantoco took her audience to a nature trip with a flora and fauna-inspired show, highlighted by bulb-shaped silhouettes and evening wear with burnt ruffle edges. Concluding the series was the dazzling 1920s retro showcase of Jun Escario in mostly black and white with intricately detailed flapper dresses, laced pants and flowing long gowns.

As in the first two installments of the series, co-presenter Metrobank Femme Visa once again awarded five wonderful women for their outstanding fashion sense — Joanna Preysler, Kaye Tinga, Anna Palabyab-Rufino, Crickette Tantoco and Stephanie Zubiri were declared as Fashion Watch Femme.

A day of pampering

It was one rejuvenating day of pampering that launched Fuller Life Direct Selling Philippines’ breakthrough anti-aging product, Nekara Anti-Wrinkle Face Cream. The event was held recently at The Spa Bonifacio High Street at The Fort.

Fuller Life, one of the country’s top distributors of globally renowned brands, gathered media friends and guests to unveil the one and only anti-aging product in the market today that effectively fights wrinkles and delivers instant results in as fast as six hours.

Research and development director of Tupperware Brands-International Beauty Group Stephan Otte, who flew in from the Netherlands for the launch, said: “Nekara represents the most advanced approach on fighting skin aging in women. It delivers what it promises to women — fighting wrinkles literally in an instant to give them smoother, younger and radiant skin.”

Guests were introduced to Nekara’s unique formula, the Nano-Active Complex, a blend of ingredients that penetrates deeply into the skin to smoothen the wrinkles, prevents new expression lines and promotes cell adhesion for a firmer skin. It is combined with Hyaluronic Filling Spheres, which create rapid hydration and smoothening of fine lines and wrinkles for improved, younger-looking skin in a matter of hours.

Fuller Life has chosen actress Mikee Cojuangco-Jaworski to represent Nekara as she personifies what most women today want in their lives.

After the presentation of new products, Fuller Life raffled off pampering Zensations gift sets to lucky guests. They were also treated to lunch at Cav then ushered to The Spa for one relaxing Aromafacial massage and to experience for themselves Nekara’s fast-acting and highly effective anti-aging solution.
