Will Shop, Won’t Stop!

September 11th, 2009

Beauty shopaholics should head on over to Rustan’s Department Store ASAP: the retail giant has teamed up with HSBC, Thai Airways and JVC for hot cosmetic deals this September. Their latest beauty promo, Rustan’s is the Beauty Source, gets big ups from HSBC’s Red Hot Deals–buying an item from participating brands means extra goodies for shoppers. Each single receipt purchase of P10,000 (or P6,000 worth of purchases with your HSBC Card at the cosmetics department) entitles shoppers to receive a Beauty Box, a yummy treasure trove of beauty goodies from cult faves Mario Badescu, Acca Kappa, Murad and lots more. Gift cards from Thai Airways, Univers Phyto, Belo Medical Group and even Machiavelli Chocolatier sweeten the deal further.

Different workshops are also conducted daily, with brands like, among others, Clarins, Elizabeth Arden, Kanebo, Estée Lauder, and my personal favorite, Stila, participating in the fun, with timely topics like “All About Organics,” “Exquisite Brightness,” and “Beautiful Skin Solutions.” All workshops will be held at Heaven on the Fifth, 5/F Rustan’s Makati (fronting Clarins Institut) and at G/F Rustan’s Tower, EDSA Shangri-La Plaza Mall (fronting M.A.C.).

*Ed’s note: I’ve already tried out a blissful facial at Dermalogica (an hour plus of complete skin overhaul, with a massage to boot!); it’s definitely the perfect reward for a tiring, sopping wet week.
