Skincare authority and leading dermatological brand Clinique was one of the first cosmetic companies to recognize the different skincare needs of men.
To further make an impression on men, the brand hosted an exclusive launch to re-introduce its Clinique For Men (CFM) skincare line at the Samsung Hall of SM Aura Premier in Taguig City.
The program started with music by DJ Marc Nicosia as cocktails were served in the lounge area. With the lights dimmed, a countdown started on screen and a performance by Paolo Valenciano began. Ballet Philippines danced to the song Pompeii by British rock band Bastille while Paolo belted out the lyrics as Animo Choir blended in.
Event host Joey Mead-King introduced the latest Volvo S60. Clinique brand general manager Kaye Fidelino chatted with Joey about the science of making men look good with Clinique for Men. A video accompanied the big revelation, featuring each product in the CFM line.
A dance collaboration between Ballet Philippines (for ballet) and A-Team Dance Crew (for hip-hop) ensued on the dance floor right after the presentation. Joey thanked everyone for attending the event but reminded the guests that DJ Tom Taus was still to hit the decks with fist-pumping music to keep the party going all night long.
The new Clinique for Men marries dermatological know-how with common sense to bring men specialized skincare including cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing, shaving and grooming products. The new CFM is a collection of products specifically designed to meet men’s unique needs for healthy skin every day.
Clinique’s mission remains what it was from the beginning: to provide the highest quality and most effective collection of products to enhance every skin type and tone. The brand’s customized approach and quality products — all meticulously tested and carefully formulated with the latest science — have made Clinique one of the leading skincare authorities in the world. All makeup and skincare products are allergy-tested and 100-percent fragrance free.
It offers products for men and women of all ages and ethnicities. Clinique is sold in more than 130 countries and territories, and over 16,000 sales locations.
I have been using CFM for quite a while and I cannot imagine how much better these newly formulated products will be!
Genuinely comfortable
Sleep is definitely one of the most precious things one can enjoy in life for free. Having the perfect pillow-and-mattress combo creates a whole new experience while sleeping.
Dunlopillo, one of the leading brands in quality sleep solution, is finally in Manila. Its line of premium latex mattresses was displayed at the Rigodon Ballroom of Peninsula Manila for guests to enjoy and experience.
The mattress brand pioneered a revolutionary latex manufacturing process that produces exceptional support and temperature control. Dunlopillo also presented its newest ambassadors: Jessica Kienle, Aly Borromeo and Grace Barbers-Baja, who were joined onstage by event host Issa Litton.
Attendees each went home with one of Dunlopillo’s patented latex pillows, one of the brand’s unique innovations. Lucky raffle winner Jaimie Ponce de Leon even got to take home Dunlopillo’s Elizabeth mattress with its super soft, pure silk pillow top and revolutionary spring configuration.
