Last weekend, I spent a fruitful and enlightening afternoon at the Four Seasons Hotel for Olay’s ‘Look good, Feel Great’ masterclass.
On top of dexterous makeup tricks and useful skincare tips, the speakers at the event also imparted some valuable biochemistry knowledge to help us understand how our skin behaves in order to choose the right products for our skin.
Click for all the scoop! Top makeup guru, Larry Yeo opened the masterclass with a live makeup demo with one of the participants.
This was probably one of my most favorite sessions of the class. He dispensed many makeup knowledge tips during his short presentation and my most favorite was getting the perfect winged eyeliner.
Larry suggested using our lower waterline as a guide. The wing on the upper lid should start where the lower waterline ends so it’ll look like you’ve extended it. This method helps you create a perfect and equal pair of wings. I’ve tried it and trust me, it works. I’ll be demonstrating this method in my next Youtube makeup tutorial so look out for it!
Next speaker is Barbara Koh, editor of Singapore Women’s Weekly.
She showed us how to create show-stopping looks with some simple floral and striped prints and also divulged the secrets to looking effortless but carefully crafted.
Layering and colors are also key to fashion success. Layering can accentuate your figure or hide your body flaws while colors add a tinge of youth and fun to your ensemble!

Next, we were treated to a live demo on product application and massage techniques by none other than Olay’s Regional Training and Capability Leader, Susan Park.
Finally, we were introduced to Olay’s Senior Scientist, David Khoo who shared the latest skincare technology for the All New Olay Regenerist range as well as introduced the Skin Fatigue theory which I’ve explained in my Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream review.
According to him, a good skin care product is usually more water-dispersed. This is because the main composition of our skin is water, and more water-dispersed products can carry the ingredients deeper in skin layers.
So he carried out a live demonstration where he mixed both the Olay NEW Regenerist and a Prestige Skincare brand with water in separate bottles. He then asked a participant to shake both bottles to test its solubility. The Olay NEW Regenerist quickly dispersed in the water which indicates a possible high absorption level in the skin.
After the session, we also got to try the Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream. Read my review here.

I did not leave the party empty handed.
I made a new friend! Meet Catherine! She’s a sweetheart.
Catherine and me.
The folks of Olay also kindly gifted these products to me – Olay Regenerist Revitalizing Serum and Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Eye Cream and Lash Serum Duo.
The Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Eye Cream and Lash Serum Duo is really cool I tell you. It combines a hydrating Eye Cream with a nourishing Lash Serum to provide smoother-looking lids, firmer skin and instantly thicker-looking lashes.
