Cosmetologie 2009



Come February 26-28, 2009 (that's this week already), The Philippine International Cosmetologists Association (PICA), the leading organization of beauty and wellness professionals and the only association accredited by TESDA, is proudly staging the "COSMETOLOGIE 2009: BEAUTY,WELLNESS & TRENDS" at the SMX Convention Center.

It is a 3-day gathering of the Philippines' most prestigious beauty gurus, with live demonstrations on hair and make-up trends. Celebrity make up artist Fanny Serrano, Smashbox regional trainor for Asia (my teacher) Lourd Ramos, and beauty queen-turned-make up artist Abbygale Arenas will all have separate sessions on red carpet make-up, airbrush techniques and TV commercial make-up, among the many interesting topics to be discussed.

If you're into fashion, top designer Rene Salud will be talking about Filipino fabrics in fashion. Fashion fairs and runway shows will also be staged. Some seminar sessions are free, while others come with a minimal fee (P200). Anybody can attend the convention for only P100 entrance per day.

Booths showcasing the latest make-ups and tools are likewise something to look forward to.

I will definitely be coming to this rare occasion. I already booked a plane ticket months ago for these dates to attend a convention of family physicians . Incidentally, it will be held on the same dates as cosmetologie 2009 so right now I'm busting up my brains trying to figure out how to attend both.

For schedule of activities and more info, visit the Cosmetologie 2009 site. See you there!
