It was one Wednesday afternoon when this lil’ momma decided to ditch her mommy duties to attend a beauty event hosted by Cream Silk. (Even mommas have to look great and have some fun, right?) 🙂
And so she arrived at the metro’s tallest residential building, took the elevator up to the 71st floor to 71 Gramercy, a New York style bar/lounge/restaurant along Kalayaan Avenue in Makati.
Whew! Look at that view from above!
Inside, she nibbled on some savoury snacks while chit chatting with fellow bloggers at the venue.
She liberally took photos as well. 🙂
When the event formally started, they were ushered into the next room..
where they sat on comfy couches, all eager to learn a thing or two from top beauty experts on how to take their look from good to great.
Everyone’s all abuzz and excited.
Once the guests have settled in, host Sarah Meier kicked things off by welcoming everyone to her living room. 🙂
She then called in the top beauty experts to share the stage with her. (L-R) Agoo Bengzon, one of the fashion and beauty industry’s most-trusted experts, beauty editor for 15 years, Peewee Reyes-Isidro, in the fashion industry for 13 years, editor-in-chief of Mega Magazine, and Rissa Mananquil-Trillo, a former model, mom, beauty columnist, and owner of local makeup brand Happy Skin
These three experts then shared their simple and practical beauty and fashion tips and even gave everyone the tools to try for themselves! Whoppeee!
Here’s the super exciting Oprah moment where each of the guests were given the beauty picks from the top beauty and fashion experts.
Ta-da! This lil’ momma got her hands on one! More on the contents later! 🙂
Last, but certainly not the least, in the panel of experts was hairstylist to the stars Raymond Santiago. He is the genius behind the fabulous hairstyles of some of the country’s top celebrities, including Cream Silk World Class Filipina, Anne Curtis.
Raymond stressed the need to constantly care for our hair, more so if it is always subjected to coloring and styling abuse. Ugh, guilty!
Which is why this lil’ momma is so pleased to hear that Cream Silk has come up with a new product that combines daily treatment and conditioner in one! It’s so perfect for busy moms like us who can barely get out of the house, much less go to a salon for a treatment! With this, all you need to do to have great hair is to take a few steps to the shower, with this silver-coated Cream Silk bottle in your hand of course!

After the talk, guests were able to talk to and ask advice from the top beauty experts who made themselves available around the venue. There’s that lil’ momma getting her brows done by none other than Agoo.
Top Picks of Beauty and Fashion Experts
Okay, so what’s in the kit?
- Cream Silk Daily Treatment Conditioner
“Doubling up your beauty can be as simple as letting your hair down. I always recommend a great conditioner that works twice as hard to rescue your dry hair.” – Raymond Santiago
- Happy Skin Lip and Cheek Mousse
“Match long and beautiful hair by going for a lip and cheek mousse that works to double up your beauty, treating both your lips and cheeks to a long lasting velvety color.” – Rissa Mananquil-Trillo
- K-Palette Lasting 2-Way Eyebrow Pencil
“The easiest way to double tup your makeup is to keep it nice and polished, to go with your fabulous hairstyle. I love going for products that work twice as hard, like using a reliable eyebrow pencil and powder for full brows to frame the face.” – Agoo Bengzon
- Zara Skinny Scarf
“Double up your beauty by complementing beautiful hair with an accessory like a skinny scarf. Tie it around your waist and use it as a belt, or use it as an accent by wearing it like a choker.” – Peewee Reyes-Isidro
By the way, this lil’ momma checked out the grocery and found that Cream Silk Daily Treatment Conditioners are now out in the market. They come in these 4 variants:
- Standout Straight
- Dry Rescue
- Damage Control
- Hair Fall Defense
Great hair, great look, here we come!
Wow! Thanks for sharing your experience mommy. I am guilty too about my abused hair and no-time for hair treatment due to busyness. I will definitely get one!
Great tips from the beauty fashion experts!

The new Cream Silk Dry Rescue might just be the solution I need for my stressed out hair ~ constant use of hairdryer and frequent hair color is causing damage to my hair. Thanks for sharing Sis. I will try this one out.
I like how you wrote your post (in the third person point of view). I felt like I was reading a story from a storybook, very fitting for a post about beauty and kind of a dream coming true (escape from mommy duties lol). Anyway thanks for sharing! 🙂
