Benefit and Mommievents has teamed up to set up The Ultimate Guide to Being a Benefit Babe workshop which showcased how to do brows and make up just like a Certified Benebabe. This took place in the charming Benefit boutique at Alabang Town Center on April 29, 2017.

Participants witnessed make up techniques and tips from the workshop instructor: Jedd Entilla, Benefit Makeup & Brow Expert. Since it's a Benefit workshop, the participants got their hands on Benefit products which was everyone's favorite part.

There were snacks and refreshments. There were loot bags that have Benefit giveaways.

The workshop started with introductions by Desha Buen, Benefit Assistant Expert and Camille Manalo from Mommievents. The participants were grouped together to gear up for the workshop's agenda. There were two groups: Marshmallow Mamas and Glam Girls. They had a short group introduction by making a cheer presentation before they started with their first activity. There was also a warm-up game of make-up themed charade. This definitely got the ladies revved up for some fun competition.

The first activity was to have the participants "glamorize" their Bene Babe sheets using Benefit products. The participant with the most fabulous make up  masterpiece got a prize and it was announced at the end of the workshop.

The workshop showcased putting on full make up from brows to lips. Event ambassador, Franchesca Lagua (you know her as one of the Asia's Next Top Model contenders in season 3) graced the event with her chic presence in a pastel romper number and in fabulous heels. She was also with her ramp/commercial/Philippine Fashion Week model friend, Shanna Retuya who is equally a make-up junkie and a Benefit fan. Chesca gave some advice on make up and revealed how much she loves make-up like most participants are. She happily obliged to taking selfies with everyone in the event and was very easy to chat with. Check out what Chesca dished with me on our quick chat here!
