I woke up to a somewhat gloomy weather of Hong Kong. A typhoon was looming (one that just recently visited my very own country) and chose to go to the direction of where we were. But that didn't stop stop us. Thank God that I was able to curl my hair the previous evening since my plush bed at Lanson Place had me oversleeping. Apologies to those who had to wait for me to get dressed.


We headed to the Hollywood Road up town (or is it downtown?) where the models and their Independent Business Consultants will be under going their training and photo shoot. I was so excited for them! Hollywood road is like an interior design mecca in Hong Kong with a few cafes and boutique hotel. That day The Space was converted into a training center for the second day of Mary Kay One Woman Can Beauty Contest.

Take a look at the behind the scenes and learn a thing or two about modelling from their mentors....

When we reached Lanson Place Hotela t Causeway Bay, I loved the quaint hotel, elegant decors. Our rooms were designed fabulously. And what I saw on my bed was doubly cheery, a note and gift from the Mary Kay Asia Pacific Team.

There's nothing that fills my heart more than seeing women do what they can to improve their lives. Even if this blog talks about beauty all the time, I always try to encourage you to be confident and to love who you are. Find empowerment where ever you can.

A few weeks ago, I learned of Mary Kay Philippines's Search for One Woman Can. Where in regular women can join and share what they can do as woman. Mary Kay has always been an advocate of empowering women. She, who lived in a time where women where over looked for promotion or better opportunities. A male-dominated world who refuse to recognize her potential. Right then and there, she upped and quit her sales job to create a business that would help change many women's lives. I wonder if she knew what an impact she'd make when she started her company 50 years ago. That it will blossom into a successful career that celebrates women and their excellence.
