The Glass House is open to the public with the opening hours of 10am-10pm.
The event is basically a showcase for the new Terracotta collection from Guerlain.
Guerlain Makeup Artist from Paris, Maxime Poulin, showcased the make-up application (using Guerlain Terracotta of course) on a model during the event.
Voila and it’s all done …
Overly excited crowd …
It was an interesting event although quite messy due to limited space.
Not much interaction between the attendees and the Makeup Artist going on.
Personally, Mel thought that they failed to catch the attendees’ interest toward the products itself.
There was also lucky draw where three lucky attendees got a chance to get free makeover from Maxime Poulin.
This lady is one of the lucky one …
Mel attended Benefit Beauty 101 on Sat, May 29th 2011 at TANGS Orchards.
Fortunately there were only two participants for the event so, each one of us have our own “space” that full with make-up – real feel like a Princess ^_^
We had a cupcake with green tea and coconut toppings too – yummy …
It’s a real great experience, where Mel got to learn the proper way of using make-up. The trainer basically just gave some guidances and the participants still had to do everything by themselves. The trainer also answered the participants’ queries pertaining to Benefit products and the proper way of using them. She also shared one amazing fact about Benefit where basically Benefit products can be mixed and matched. E.g. the mixture of face primer and eye concealer can also act as foundation.
The best part of all was that Mel learned some useful tips from Ann, one of the ladies from Benefit TANGS Orchard. She told Mel some tricks in using eye liner and also mascara and it really did the "magic" –unfortunately unable to snap the picture as Mel had to go to gym after the event so, had to remove the make-up completely L-.
At the end of the event, each participant received a goodie bag consisting of b.right badge, Benefit b.right Moisture Prep Toning Lotion (deluxe size), products and services brochure and b.right brochure (with the sample of Benefit b.right Triple Performing Facial Emulsion attached).
We all love bargain, don’t we?

The speaker for the lecture was Anthony Tan. He is a Senior Lecturer of Department of Fashion Studies of Nanyang Academy of fine Arts. The curator for Beauty in Black exhibition was also present at the lecture and assisted Anthony in answering the questions from the audience during the Q & A session at the end of the lecture.
Anthony shared his knowledge of the evolution of the colour black and why black continues to be staple affection and obsession by so many around the world and across cultures.
Anthony started the presentation by explaining about the history of modern black dress and how Coco Channel started the “black dress” trend.
Coco Chanel and her famous black dress
Black colour is always being associated with “funeral” and “death” especially in Asian culture. However, how amazing it is that every where thou go, thou shall see that lots of people are actually wearing black colour nowadays. The trend and people’s perceptions had changed.
REi KAwakubo’s –founder of Comme des Garçons- twisted padded jacket.
Note: Anthony mentioned that REi KAwakubo stated in one of her interview that she always work with three shades of black.
Victor & Rolf with their A/W 2001 collection, with the theme of “Black Hole”, went extreme by painted the model’s body with black paint even themselves.
Gareth Pugh, young fashion designer from the UK, whose collection is beyond wow. Gareth Pugh collections are real crazy and weird but yet there are amazing and totally different.
After showing some of those amazing collection, the lecturer was closed with Q&A session with discussion about black colour and its recent development.
During the event, Jurlique conducted presentation on home facial experience with its new product range, Purely White Collection.
Mel had the honor to be demonstrated with the 1-to-1 demonstration on the products as she missed the presentation. The lady explained step-by-step in using the whole range of collection and the benefits of each product. It was pretty impressive especially when the lady told her that the toner is not only a toner but also facial mist and can be used anytime. Basically, just spray the mist to the face and leave it to dry. It is not only hydrate and refresh the skin but also keep the makeup longer. She also added that the Jurlique products are made from natural ingredients so it can be used by any skin types.
Mel loves the product so much that she purchased the Rosewater Balancing Mist for combination skin.
As the first 80 TANGS cardmembers who made RSVP for the event, Mel received two vouchers (SGD 10 each) and door gifts worth SGD 100.
For the door gift, Mel received Calendula Cream, Herbal Recovery Night Mist and Daily Exfoliating Cream.
Various nibbles and drinks are also served during the event.
The first time Disney Studio released Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Mel was not interested to watch it at all. The reason being mainly coz Mel thought that the movie is kinda creepy, judging from the cover.
One day, Mel’s housemate bought Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl’s VCD. After much persuasion, Mel finally agreed to watch it together with her. From covering her face (with pillow) and scream like mad woman to laugh like mad, Mel pretty much love the movie. Apparently, it’s not as scary as she tough.
That was Mel's first experience with the Pirates of the Caribbean. It was then continued to next second one, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, and the third one, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End.
The third installment was kinda heartbreaking, could accept the fact that Elizabeth (and the boy) have to be separated from Will and they can only see each other like once in every ten years. Well, they could each other still at least and Mel was so happy that they both have a boy together.
Elizabeth and Will (and the Dead Man's Chest containing his beating heart)

After waiting for almost four years, finally Disney Studio will release the next installment. Sad and excited at the same time. Sad as there will be no more Will and Elizabeth and excited as Penelope Cruz will act in the movie.
Following is the Synopsis of the movie (taken from http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1298650/).
Captain Jack Sparrow (Depp) crosses paths with a woman from his past (Cruz), and he's not sure if it's love -- or if she's a ruthless con artist who's using him to find the fabled Fountain of Youth. When she forces him aboard the Queen Anne's Revenge, the ship of the formidable pirate Blackbeard (McShane), Jack finds himself on an unexpected adventure in which he doesn't know who to fear more: Blackbeard or the woman from his past.
The most interesting part is that the plot for the fourth installment was inspired by Tim Powers’ 1988 novel On Stranger Tides. Tim Powers is an American science fiction and fantasy author who won the World Fantasy Award twice for his critically acclaimed novels, Last Call and Declare.
Are thou as excited as I am? You do surely. Therefore,
“Catch Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides movie starting from 19th May 2011 and join the official Disney Studios Singapore Facebook & Twitter page!”
