The Max Factor

The makeup of makeup artists.

One working saturday, this author and his team had to do errands for a shoot.  The team was in and out of several malls and designer ateliers sourcing fashion pieces for the wardrobe requirements.  After collecting everything, we decided to visit Max Factor's Creative Director Bobby Carlos at his scheduled mall tour held in Robinson's Ermita.  It wasn't really much of a hassle getting there since the team was near the vicinity.  The mall was unbelievably packed, as expected the weekend crowd are like packs of mobs moving from one area to another.  As soon as we got to the Max Factor counter, the girls started asking Bobby about beauty tips and the brand's latest -- Xperience. Below is the range of must-try products the renowned makeup brand has to offer.

Lash it all out.

The counter was filled by walk-in customers who each took their turns having a one on one semi-session with Bobby.  Knowledge is power, and after every successful consultation you could see the women with a handful of purchases.  You could see a smile on their faces since they've learning something new.
