Most women have managed to develop their own go-to makeup routines after almost endless practice. For this writer, she does her makeup in just five minutes – moisturize, put sunscreen, do brows, brush some mineralized powder all over the face and finish everything off with one swipe of lipstick. Despite the range of makeup at their disposal, it’s surprising to know that there are still many women who are daunted or not comfortable with the idea of doing their own makeup.
BYS, an Australian cosmetics brand, understands that some women are still hesitant to step out of their comfort zones when it comes to beauty. That’s why the brand has decided to team up with none other than Asia’s Songbird Regine Velasquez to launch the Reign campaign – a bold call to “Be Your Own Expert” when it comes to your beauty looks.
In case you didn’t know, Regine is known to do her own makeup–a rarity among celebrities–whether it be for concerts, photo shoots and other public appearances. Her confidence, playfulness and hands-on approach towards her beauty practices resonates perfectly well with the spirit of BYS’ Reign Campaign.
Like Regine, you too can #ReignWithPower and “Be Your Own Expert’ with BYS’ wide array of makeup collections. But if you are not sure where and how to start, read on to find out how some of the best BYS makeup products can elevate your beauty and even help you recreate Regine’s fierce and fabulous look for the campaign.
