Avon introduced three new products and two new endorsers in a "Breakthrough" event held last January 21 at The Peninsula Hotel in Makati City.

-
The first laboratory featured a makeup
demo, with Lala Flores applying Avon's green palette eye shadow
on Angel Locsin's eyelids.
The expert makeup artist personally chose the color because Avon's theme this summer
has something to do with nature. "It's going back to
nature, so here, you can see a beautiful collection of green," she said.
Angel said she likes Avon's palletes because it's a compact makeup. She related, "Gusto
ko sa palette, kasama siya sa maliit na bag. Hindi ko na kailangan magdala pa ng maraming makeup para magawa ang face
niyo, di ba?"

Lala Flores carefully working magic on the eyes of the Kapamilya star to achieve that "innocent look."
"You can experiment with colors," said Ms. Lala while
applying the eye shadow on Angel's eyelids.
"Now, we're gonna show how you can look beautiful in summer without
looking so heavily done."

For the evening look, she put a finishing stroke
at the end of Angel's eyelids using the darkest color. Lala explained, "Just make a
triangle towards the end. Then spread
it out." This technique also applies to "smoky effect" and "cat's eye."
