Event Report : Breast Cancer Awareness 2015 with Clinique Indonesia

11:13:00 PM

Hey guys!

I pride myself to seldom post similar contents back to back, variety is my motto :p, but what can i do when this event actually happened on the 1st of November and it's closer to mid Nov already-need to get it done!!!

So as usual, Sabsab (who's like, bloggers' spokesperson for Clinique *LOL*) informed us about their annual Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign (you can read about our experience at the same campaign last year here) event-what's even more fun is that the quota's rather huge (so huge we didn't even manage to fill them hahaha) and we're allowed to bring our friends and families!

Was rather kiasu so you can see that i dragged my niece AU, my BFF G, my friends Lid and Shelley hehehe

The campaign itself actually went for 6 days (from 26th October to 1st November) but we're specifically invited for the last day starting from 1 PM, but when we arrived (just slightly late as usual *LOL*), the stage was still taken by their previous events involving singing/instrument playing kids.

Since the seats were still full (mainly by the parents of said kids, i suppose), we weren't very sure on what to do *LOL* besides huddling together like lost chicks and eventually when i saw the backdrop free

Pose like celebrities and harassed the photog to snap our photos (endlessly, from the same angle, with the same pose *LOLOLOL*). Dress code was (OBVI) pink

We're also asked to sign the backdrop as a sign of our support for the event

The participating brands (all under the same company) are : Bobbi Brown

(Of course) Clinique

Estee Lauder

And DKNY

The crowd dispersed and we stalked like hungry lions to claim our seats, lest we don't get the desired spots #bloggersproblem .

MC of the day who's very vibrant and probably the most entertaining thing that day *LOL*


First up is Clinique's Skin Care demo

Sabsab was the ~~victim~~ model that day. The first person who introduced me to skin care routine when i was around 13 was my sis in law CJ, and she's a loyal user of Clinique so i learned about their 3 steps routine from years ago and never look back since

Using proper skin cares is a vital step for the perfect canvas to start your makeup

Next was the everyday makeup demo by an MUA from Jakarta (by Bobbi Brown)

Yep, heard all the other blogger debating on how she looks like a local celebrity, according to Dyta she looks like Nikita Willy, i personally think she looks like Astrid

She explained step by step the makeup that you can use daily without looking too much

The result. Not gonna lie to you, definitely not my cup of tea, the eyebrows scared me stiff *LOL*, but it's definitely a good demo for makeup beginners who are not sure on what to wear daily

Weather's crazy HOT in Surabaya so Shelley finally brought her portable fan after suffering for days (i've been going out nonstop with her those days hahaha)

Selfie :p

After all of the demos' were done, we were entertained by some dancers with some crazy head pieces

Followed by sleepwear fashion show by Wacoal

Errr. The event area's suddenly super crowded and i was shocked when i looked up and saw people flocking to the rails to watch those sexy ladies strutting their stuffs. Most of the newly formed crowds were of course, made of males of all ages with scary grins upon their faces. Some immediately flipped their phones up and started recording *while grinning maniacally*. It was disturbing to say the least -____-.

Then Mr. Mario Joke gave a brief speech in preparation for the next agenda

Which was a talkshow about Breast Cancer with a doctor, survivor and representatives from Wacoal and RSS. One of the thing that piqued my interest was the fact that the doctor stated that the youngest breast cancer victim during his career was a 17 year old girl. We can never know who and when breast cancer strikes, there's no proven "reason" or "cause" for breast cancer but we can always do our best to live a healthy lifestyle and do self-examinations at home periodically, never ignore any bumps!

Last but not least was another fashion show by Musa Widyatmojo, all of the outfit can be purchased (price started from IDR 1 mill) and all of the profit will be donated.
