EVENT: BDJBOX CAMP GORGEOUS

The first BDJ Box Social event that I attended was Tres Chic, which was held at SM Aura just last March. I've known of the event way too late to join any workshops. All the of the workshops are already full and I was really envious of the people who were able to register and get loot bags. Also, despite enjoying all the beauty booths that were there, I wasn't able to try everything because I was really shy back then and I didn't know what to do. I felt a bit awkward being in a place full of girly things. So I thought that maybe next time, I'd be more adventurous to try everything that I can, I mean, I'd love to see which products out there are the best for me.

I was lucky enough to partake in their latest event, Camp Gorgeous, which was held just a few weeks ago at the Skydome at SM North Edsa. Since I've known the event early, I was able to sign-up and get a slot from two of their workshops from Shu Uemura and Benefit Cosmetics.

EVENT: TCFS Second Workshop with the Dinosaurs!

I've never been a part of any beauty workshops. I've always wondered how to be a part of those. So I did my best to look after any brand's events and newsletter, especially my favorite ones.

A few weeks ago, I saw Too Cool For School's ad regarding their second make-up workshop. They were going to introduce some of their newest products there. So, I instantly messaged them, chose my preferred time (they were offering four different schedules) and registered.

And I was lucky enough to be chosen to partake in this event called the Cool Girl's Make-up Workshop!

SPOTLIGHT: Too Cool For School.

I first encountered Too Cool For School during the BDJ Tres Chic Event last March. I honestly have no idea who they are or what they specialize in. During the event, they were giving out free samples of their BB creams and Pumpkin Face Mask. Me, being the curious little lass that I am, took a few samples. But it took almost a month before I decided to give their BB Cream a try. And my, my, I'm glad that I really did took a sampler of their item.

I initially wasn't expecting to like their BB Cream since upon seeing the cream itself, it looked a bit dark on my skin. But upon application, it had blended perfectly in my face. And I love that it has an SPF 37 PA++.

This, of course, caught my attention. I wanted to try out more of their products, so I did my own research about them over the net.

April Make-up and Skincare Hauls.

For the past few months, I've been reading endless blog posts about make-up and skincare. Saw different products, others recommended by friends. I personally would have liked to try them all, but with a limited budget, I had to choose which ones to buy first and save the others for future purchases.

Yes, this is my April to early May haul. Mostly are just small sized or samplers, because I'd like to test products before getting a full size. I have an oily skin and  I do get breakouts easily so I had to be careful to pick items that will fit my skin type. Still, I guess one can say I'm an eager beaver when it comes to trying out things even though I'm a bit anxious about it.

EVENT: BDJ Box's Tres Chic.

I'm pretty new to his particular...umm. thing? And though I've heard before that Beauty events do take place in this country, I haven't attended even a single one. Until now. I was actually torn at first - within that weekend, because there were two beauty workshops that was about to take place, The Shiseido International Beauty Fair at Megamall (which by the way, was held for 3 days) and BDJBox's Tres Chic event at the Samsung Hall, SM Aura. Both workshops were for free too.

Even though I was really tempted with the Shiseido event, I decided to choose Tres Chic instead, since they were having a lot of booths and different activities, seriously, very inviting. They also have five different (and very interesting) workshops. In order to be a part of those workshops, you have to email them. Sadly though, since I learned about this event just a few days before it began, my email didn't make it to the deadline. But then again, I still decided to go.
