Rustan’s workshops with Awake and Clarins

Clarins, one of the best skincare lines from Paris, and Awake, with its gentle and highly advanced products, recently held workshops at  Rustan’s Makati.  Groups of lovely ladies led by Cris Albert and Pam Ayson for Awake spent the afternoon with guest speaker Ricky Dalu learning the fundamentals of skincare while Frannie Jacinto and some of her closest friends went hands-on with top-of-the-line Clarins products.  Rustan’s Makati was truly filled with beauty and elegance as these gorgeous women graced the classy department store with their presence.

Dance for a cause

It was a festive occasion for a cause as Tropezz Bar and Resto and legal eagle lawyer Eric Mallonga held a Spirit of ’67 dance for the benefit of Meritxell Chidren’s World, Inc. (MCW), a foundation that aspires to provide nurturing homes for children. Truly a noble endeavor, the event was a fitting launch for such an honorable cause. 

A garden tea party for charity

The Catholic Women’s Club (CWC), an organization deeply involved in service and fund-raising activities to serve those in need, came up with another first: A Garden Tea Party with a twist. CWC’s 2007 garden tea party celebration included a beautiful array of song and dance numbers dubbed “Fiesta Filipina.”  Soprano Pitang Tiongson did a solo performance during the awitan portion while Tereret Liboro dazzled the crowd with her fiery Spanish dance number.  The event was hosted by none other than the adorable Bea Zobel who incidentally also celebrated her birthday.
