VRC Creative Events, Before I Do 3rd Edition. Dream Weddings & Destinations
We had our very firs bridal exhibit sooo exciting! , I was quite hesitant at first because since it was our first we basically have no idea how our booth should look like, i did asked my sister in law to design a plan for us but then the space was too small inorder to implement the plan..in addition to that, the other makeup artist booths were intimidating......but then luckily we pulled it off and thought of some great ideas. Guess what? it was a success! number of people were always checking out our area since all of our sample works are posted on the walls, they didn't have to search through an album or through the internet because it was ll there posted before them!

This is our vanity, this is what I always bring to my bridal gigs.

The result? we had to give a lot of free makeup trials..I can't even remember how many! They were all lined up..well, it was an investment plus a wonderful experience so we didn't have any reason to complain PLUS PLUS PLUS we had quite a number of bookings made on the spot! lets just say...it was quite enough to pay for the booth fee including the free trials that we gave :) nice.

That's anne having a frenchfries break!

Anne and I would like to say thank you to all of our friends who helped us in putting up our first exhibit :) Til next November!!!

Stay Beautiful!

EXPOSED: Shooting for Living Asia Channel

Ever since I started with my makeup "adventure" everything turned out to be pretty exciting :) right after I finished my course at LCI, I was informed by Anne that we were being invited to guest for a TV show!! (say what?!!?!) yes a TV show, that is being aired in the US, I was told that it was going to be shown in a cable channel...I was quite hesitant at first, geezz am I ready for this?? hhuhh -hmmm, It's just going to be a simple chit-chat about beautification..so okay I eventually said YES.

I was quite nervous about giving tips and on the spot demo, I felt that I still don't have the right to do this since we were fresh grads..but then it's an opportunity that I have to grab! so what the heck..I decided to go for it.

The director sent us an email to show us what the show is going to cover during our guesting. I was asked to do a makeup demo for a summer look while Anne was asked to do the natural-night makeup..aside from that , there will be an interview..with no script.

Little did I know that this "so-called-show" is the one being aired in Living Asia Channel, entitled Kikay Machine...yes the one hosted by super model-- Rissa Samson...I had no idea until I arrived on the shooting day itself, and there I saw Ms. Rissa Samson doing her spills for the introductory of the show's summer special series. As expected I underwent an interview, the director just asked me a series of questions about summer makeup, and everything went smoothly,It just felt like you're talking to the camera, I only had up to take 2's :)) uuyyy au naturelle :)) Seriously, these are the kinds of activities that we had to go through during my college years in Miriam..so It's not really a new scenario to me.

I was asked to bring my own model and I asked my college friend -EMEM to do just that. She was surprised that she didn't only serve as my model but she was asked to act as well!! Thank God, Em-em is known to be a good stage actress in our batch, everything turned out fine :)

Here are some pictures from the shoot:
