I AM SPYGAL

I was invited to a Benefit event held at Tangs earlier this month.
And it was a really enjoyable event because I got to meet a few of my readers, do a makeover for someone, and learn new makeup tips from the pros!
;)

Okay I'll admit it,
I'm a huge fan of Benefit even before I attended this event.
Hahaha.
So I was pretty thrilled when Mei Ting contacted me for this event!

The invited bloggers were supposed to be Benefit Spygals and we had to carry out 'missions',
which was to do makeovers for the selected fans!

Hello Flawless foundation,
I love you so much!
My savior and holy grail when it comes to liquid foundation.

Cupcakes and drinks for everyone at the event!


The Benefit team also got the bloggers cute trench coats so that we look just like the Porefessional spygals!
We just needed a hat, black gloves and black boots to complete the look.
Hahaha.


And of course, cute outfits call for a series of photo-taking!

Always happy to see familiar faces at events.

And then everyone went outside before the event started to catch the flash mob!
It attracted quite a lot of passerbys too!

Me and Sissy with the respective fans that we had to do makeovers for!
To be honest, we were both quite nervous and jittery about having to put on makeup for someone...
Hahaha.
The only other person that I have put on makeup for (other than myself) is Jolene.
And we are not even experts at doing our own makeup!
So we expected ourselves to be completely inexperienced and rather clumsy at it.

But thankfully, we were already familiar with some of the Benefit products since we use them on a daily basis.
And there were makeup artists going around to assist us during the makeovers!

Pretty and dolly-looking Vivien after the makeover!!
HEHEHE.
I think I did a pretty decent job!
:)

It also helped that Vivien totally trusted me to do whatever I deemed fit.
And she was super nice and assuring!
Thank you Vivien!

Was quite surprised (but definitely touched) that some of the Benefit fans actually read our blogs and know who we are too!
:)

I don't even think my blog is that interesting sometimes,
but thank you all for reading!
Hehe.

With pretty Andrea who was also an invited blogger at the event!

Guess who managed to bring these home???
HEHEH.
Thank you to the super generous Benefit team!
Now I can have new additions to my Benefit makeup collection.

Confession time:
I'm a super huge sucker for nice packaging (I'm sure most girls are!),
and I think Benefit does their packaging really well!
Love their tongue-in-cheek and catchy product names as well.

For the month of August,
the Benefit team would like to offer my readers a complimentary brow waxing voucher with any purchase of Benefit products from the following Benefit counters:

 - Robinsons @ Raffles City
 - Sephora Ngee Ann City

 1) Complimentary brow vouchers are redeemable with any purchase of Benefit product (no minimum purchase)
 2) You girls need to quote my name to the Benefit Beauty Advisors on duty, i.e., “SpyGal Joyce" to redeem the voucher
 3) Appointment booking for the complimentary brow service is necessary, and only valid at Robinsons Raffles City or Sephora Ngee Ann City
 4) Voucher redemption is valid from 1 August 2013 onwards at selected counters only
 5) While stocks last only


Took some pictures for a FOTD post (will do short reviews on the product I used too!),
but wait for my next post okay??
I'm rushing out for my facial appointment now and I cannot be late!


BYE FOR NOW!
