Yesterday I was searching in the net for the VOV products that I will be asking a friend to buy in her trip to Korea. I don't know why but VOV is no longer available in the local department stores. In a TV raket way back 2007, I was introduced into using VOV make-up, it is used by a lot of celebrities and professional make-up artists. A Korean product that I loved ever since. It has a very effective coverage for me. Surprisingly, I have read a blog saying that VOV is now available in SM Makati!
Today I went to SM Makati, hopeful of my search. So excited to enter the mall. An laki ng ngiti ko when I saw the VOV stall! Yey!!!
To my dismay, the stall was in random mess.
Blush on and eye shadows mixed up. A clutter of empty make-up boxes. I asked around to help me find the product I'm looking for, but I was told that there's no saleslady assigned for the VOV stall! What??? The saleslady nearby discouraged me to buy. She told me that all the products on display were the only products left. E puro testers lang nasa display! Malapit na din daw ito i-pull out. Plenty make-up artists of the celebrities went there and were also disappointed. She then introduced me to her make-up brand stall instead. Kaloka ka 'te. Galing mo dumiskarte. Isumbong kaya kita?
I'm almost pissed off. Finally, meron nag-assist na branch manager. She then opened the cabinet of the display counter and gave me new items on stock. Although some of the make-up I was looking for was not there (VOV Two way Cake in Dark Beige and Real Fit V-Line Two way Cake in Skin Beige), I just content myself with what is available.
I am happy with the Baby Cheek in Baby Pink color for my daughter. The powder design almost looks like Hello Kitty.
I have a mixed feeling with the Pressed Powder. I didn't see it in the
VOV website. And I'm used to the Korean characters at the back. Hindi naman siguro (sana) ito fake noh? Nevertheless, the shade is perfect for me and it has the signature scent of VOV. Hmmmmmmm :)
Now, I'm looking forward for my friend's trip to Korea :)
