In line with annually showcasing the year’s most sought after makeup looks, Pond’s was featured at this year’s Colombo Fashion Week, where the leading face care brand unveiled its Pond’s BB+ looks for 2018 under the theme ‘Au Naturale’.
The segment demonstrated the current trending wave of the ultimate glowing skin look, which was also worn by many fashion trendsetters, social media influencers and celebrities attending the event, a testimony to the current popularity of this classic and timeless look of effortless shimmer.
For the third consecutive year Pond’s BB+ collaborated with expert celebrity makeup artist Pallavi Symons for the segment. Having been in the industry since the late ’90s, Symons has worked with India’s top designers including Manish Arora, JJ Vallaya, Tarun Tahiliani, Manish Malhotra, Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Rohit Bal, as well as in Fashion Weeks both in India and in Milan.
“The looks I’ve compiled this year allows you to look like your style is effortless and natural, because with Pond’s BB+, the product is easy to use and not heavy on the face. At its core, it is all about perfecting the appearance of your skin, giving it a radiant, glowing effect,” said Symons, currently one of the most followed makeup experts in India.
The Pond’s BB+ segment featured all occasions in which a woman uses makeup – day wear, work wear and cocktail/evening wear.
“Pond’s BB+ is for the woman who does not compromise herself in the journey of advancing in her chosen field. As a brand, we understand the need for convenience as well as the search for the best care you can give your skin. Pond’s BB+ is a product that can offer the best of these worlds – its versatility in application and finishing will help you remain chic and confident with that timeless natural glow,” said Medhavi Jayaratne, Brand Manager for Pond’s Sri Lanka.
