If any one knows colour, it’s Xeng Zulueta. Xeng and I met almost ten years ago. I was still in F and she was the hottest makeup artist in town. I was humbled that she took me on as one of her muses. She would do my makeup for my TV shows, guest appearances and most of my magazine editorial shoots. We became a package deal. I would regularly request for her.
Check out Xeng’s makeup palette when she was Shu Uemura’s chief makeup artist.
And here's another palette
This woman knows make up and colour. And she knows my face like the back of her hand. For my old live talk show ANC Life, she could do my entire face in 5 minutes. And she could also take over an hour if she wanted to.
She did my makeup here after I had cried all day because of the death of our friend Hecky Villanueva. The show had to go on.

Xeng now announces her collaboration with Anthology. She works literally on her toes, so Xeng is most comfortable in flat footwear - flip flops or ballet flats - when I see her. It was no surprise, she'd go this direction. This line, the San Francisco, is the classic Anthology ballerina shoe they’ve introduced seasons ago. But with Xeng’s touch, they are issued in a burst of colours representing paradise -- PARADISO. Colours based on Xeng’s favorite make up palettes.
