Olay and me

Yesterday I was part of a major press event (major for me). It was for the launch of a new Olay Total Effects TV commercial. Can't wait for you to see it. This is my third time as Olay Brand Ambassador.



2006, when Olay Total Effects was first introduced in the Philippines. With P&G Execs and fellow brand ambassador Miriam Quiambao. Memorable as this took place just a few weeks after I gave birth. I wore a Joey Samson jersey gown



When Olay entered the Philippine market. With the brand ambassadors.



2007 with co-brand ambassadors Gretchen Barreto, Miriam Quiambao and Dr Pie Calayan. I wore Joey Samson again.

This time I stressed out a bit a lot over what I was going to wear. It wasn't a formal ball. Just a lunch event. I had a couple of black dresses lined up but last minute decided on a simple and classic Narciso Rodriguez dress. By last minute I mean I bought it ten minutes before the store closed the night before the event.



Wearing Narciso Rodriguez. I don't have real photos from the event yet. Will post some when they send them to me.

The reason I stressed out was because I am 36 weeks pregnant. That means I can literally safely give birth next week. Who makes public appearances a week before they give birth? With puffiness, extra weight, leg cramps and all? But I'm not complaining. I'm actually a bit flattered. The good news is that Olay booked one of the best makeup artists to fix me up -- Ting Duque. And since the colours of Olay are black and gold, I decided to debut my new JAR (Joel Arthur Rosenthal) earrings. I could go on and on about them. They are so so special. At last minute, Jewelmer came to the hotel to loan me a south sea pearl cuff. Perfect way to spruce up my uber-simple Narciso dress. In the end, it all worked out.

It was a day of big announcements. First one, Angel Aquino joins me as Olay Brand Ambassador. And second, the original F girls - Cher Calvin, Angel Aquino and I - are going to be making a couple of public appearances for Olay Total Effects.



Watch out for an Olay event that we'll be a part of....
This'll be the first time the three of us will be together again.
That's all I can say for now. But I'm very excited.

PEP reported on the event.

Note to self, avoid reading comments in PEP. There are a lot of good comments, but some freaked me out. Skin is beautiful thanks to Olay, but not thick enough to handle some negative/false comments. Such as:

a) is it just the photo or it's the same in real - daphne's face size is twice the size of angel's? We obviously have different facial features, shape, structure. Angel is a goddess in the universal sense. Known for her beauty and grace even before she joined F. I love her! But please be kind to me, I'm about to give birth in a week or two. My face isn't THAT big.

b) i just hope daphne had already stoped smoking.. - False. I don't smoke. I didn't smoke then either. Wrong.

Moving on... hormonal much?







I'm. So. Excited.

What are your favourite memories of F?
