This weekend: Look as beautiful as Song Ji-Hyo, and 5 other more

#TGIF ladies, the weekend is finally here again! While it may seem tempting to just wrap yourself up like a burrito with a blanket and binge-watch Netflix, we reckon you should head out for some fun. With a whole slew of activities that includes discounted branded outlet shopping (this should get you excited), a k-beauty showcase where you learn tips and tricks from professional Korean makeup artists and more, it’ll be a shame to stay home.

Are you ready? Here we go.

K-beauty Showcase 2017

If you’re a fan of K-beauty, then you should not miss the K-beauty Showcase that starts today and runs all the way till Sunday evening. Immerse yourself in the latest trends and skincare tips - think perfecting your eyebrow and liner game, nailing the hallyu (K-wave) perm and learn how to spruce up like a K-beauty idol.

Spearheaded by Song Ji Hyo’s makeup artist, Hye Min, there is a step-by-step guide to achieving Song Ji Hyo’s makeup style demonstration at 1pm on Saturday. Song is of course, the actress-model from Running Man (not to be confused with the other two Songs, who have been in the news recently for their beautiful love story). Over the weekend, you can indulge in a skin clinic, taste Korean coffees, peruse a vast selection of Korean skincare and beauty products before taking part in their daily lucky draw. K-beauty junkies, see you there.

Wild Shopping Spree at IMM

Happening over the entire weekend, IMM’s participating outlets (read Club 21, Coach, Agnes B and more) are offering an additional 10-30% off their pieces. Prices are slashed further, with Agnes B bucket bags going at less than half its original price, British India pants with 80% discount and more.

Shape Run Running Clinic

And while you’re at K-Beauty Showcase in Suntec’s East Atrium, for the sporty ladies, you can just scoot over to the West Atrium. Starting tomorrow, you can head on down to learn the biomechanics of running. That is to say, how to run more efficiently using the different forces (including gravity) acting on your body. You get to learn basic running drills, correct your running posture and how to avoid injuries.

Plus, for every pair of running shoe you donate to “In My Shoes” movement from today till Sunday, your Shape Run registration fees get halved and these shoes get distributed to less privileged children. Doing good and keep in shape? That sounds pretty fine to us.

Where:  Suntec City West Atrium, 9 Temasek Blvd S(038984)

When:  Fri - Sun, July 28 - July 30, 2017

HerWorld Beauty Dream House

This isn’t happening over the weekend but good things must share. So, remember HerWorld’s Beauty Dresser pop-up that happened in March? It’s back this month but with a whole new look. Titled as HerWorld Beauty Dream House, you get to score a mystery beauty locker and that’s not it. You are also entitled to yummy treats - Hagen Daz ice cream and a packet of Natura’s fortified almond milk.

For our HerWorld Beauty Clubber, we’ve got something special for you - Revlon lip balm and all of the above as well. If you’re not a member yet, fret not. Simply sign up at the booth on the day of the event itself. Other than all of these, you get to win prizes and Watsons voucher from the Bourjois booth and get exclusive slimming packages and free fat analysis with Slim Couture. Happening from Monday to Wednesday, be sure to pop by during lunch hours if you may. Excited? Us too!

A Spanish Hendrick’s Summer Fiesta

After all that shopping, it’s time for the annual Spanish summer fiesta again. This year, Esquina (which is one of our Top 3 favourite chefs last year) has teamed up with Hendrick’s Gin for an evening of fun and great Spanish chow. Think gin tipples by Hendrick’s Southeast Asia brand ambassador, Tashu Lu, Spanish BBQ (read Chorizo Croquettes, Patatas Bravas, Grilled Txistorra with Idiazabal Cheese and more) plates from Esquina and smashing ibiza summer beats (sunset chill lounge) on spin by DJNOMSTA.

All drinks are at $10 nett and food starts from $5 nett. Bonus: Grab your bae and come dress in white because…you’ll get a Spanish Gin & Tonic on the house to kickstart the party. Cheers to that.
