Lancome The Little Black Bottle Exhibition and the launch of Advance Genifique Yeux Youth Activating Eye Serum in Malaysia


How often we go to gallery to enjoy arts. Well thanks to Lancome Malaysia for the invite, I drove all the way to Publika on Friday night just to attend their Little Black Bottle Exhibition.  And luckily those arts pieces displayed were not disappointing and worth the time of getting stuck in the jam :D

ThisThe Little Black Bottle exhibition earlier in Gallery Chandan Publika is a new artistic project by Lancome in conjunction with its official launch of the new Advance Genifique Yeux Youth Activating Eye Serum.

Lancôme has collaborated with many international artists coming from Korea, China, England, the United States as well as Germany, Italy, Spain, Japan, and France. 

And yes this little black bottle referring to Lancôme Advanced GÉNIFIQUE Youth Activating Concentrate has becomes a legend!

Let me show us how these high profile artists worked on the emblematic silhouette to reinterpret the iconic dimension of the glass bottle and its black silhouette, identifiable at first sight. And please tell me which is your favourite piece of art.


Personally there is a few that I like and this one on the right (below) by Toshimasa Ohara,Japan in particular is quite unique. From far it looks like mouth of shark nomming away your wrinkles and pigmentation (remembered the movie JAWS?)  but then take a closer it's the skyscraper of New York city. Absolutely a beautiful piece of art!

No surprise that the top left picture were chosen by most attendees as the picture that best represent The Little Black Bottle. It is a nice picture but I think too predictable and not very arty :P

These artists are really amazing some really think out of the box when they produce this pictures!

Which is your favourite ?

Inspired by the genomic and proteomic approach of Advanced Génifique, Advance Genifique Yeux Youth Activating Eye Serum targets five key signs of youth and five signs of fatigue specific to the eye area. Fine lines are reduced, smoothness, texture, lifting effect and firmness are improved by a formula containing a powerful complex of ingredients, to activate a youthful and well-rested look, and repair visible hints of fatigue.

Combined with its intensive action on aging, Advance Genifique Yeux Youth Activating Eye Serum has the soft-focus effect to “blur” tell-tale lines and wrinkles. In addition, these high tech ingredients provide matifying effects with a soft powdery skin finish. a cocktail of micro particles of different shades was selected to diffuse the light with illuminating and mattifying properties in order to immediately reduce signs of fatigue and make the gaze younger and smoother. Silica resin microspheres enhance light diffusion to visually correct dark shadows and other imperfections; boron nitride increase the quantity of diffused light; nacres subtly add illuminating effects, immediately. Besides improving the eye contour area it would keep the eyes area moisturizes for 8 hours and protects against urban pollution.

Clinical study on 43 Asian women for 4 weeks also shows a significant improvement of crow’s feet wrinkles, the total surface is reduced by 13%* and the number of wrinkles and fines lines is diminished by 14%*.

I tried the gel-cream texture and love how it felt... very smooth. As this is a serum, use a pea size and massage gently using your ring fingers. You can use this for morning and night.

Lancome Malaysia has been so lovely - after the Friday jam to Publika to attend the event, we get to pamper with eye massage using their latest Advance Genifique Yeux Youth Activating Eye Serum. That's so nice... I wish I had a longer session :D

Advance Genifique Yeux Youth Activating Eye Serum (7.5ml) is launched this month (May) for RM205 and would be available in all Lancome's counter. 

And yes I should take this out soon to try and put on a review here. Stay tune :D

Preview of XIXILI Spring / Summer Lingerie Collection 2014 and Bra Art Launch

Can guess what are the items used in this window showcase?

Did anyone guess bra? 

I first saw this window showcase in Xixili boutique in 1 Utama Shopping Centre where the bra art visual display centres around the theme of ‘togetherness’. Decked with waves of colourful bras, an inspirational quote: “You! Yes, You! The one reading this. You are amazing and simply the best at being you!” speaks directly at passer-bys.

In line with XIXILI’s brand philosophy of ‘Uplifting You Always’; XIXILI embarked on a special bra art collaboration with Ms Louise Low, a talented young Malaysian artist who has recently been conferred the title of Malaysia’s Top 10 Female Visual Artist.

Ms Louise ingeniously created a beautiful three-piece art visual experience using over a thousand Xixili bras. Each artwork serves to bring about the message of women empowerment to inspire women of all ages and walks of life. The three bra art visual experiences at its boutiques located at 1 Utama Shopping Centre (which is shown above), Mid Valley Megamall and Queensbay Mall, Penang.

Similarly at Xixili boutique in Mid Valley Megamall, the bra art visual display centres around the theme of ‘togetherness’. Decked with waves of colourful bras, an inspirational quote: “You! Yes, You! The one reading this. You are amazing and simply the best at being you!” speaks directly at passer-bys.

Finally, at Xixili's Queensbay Mall boutique, the artistic impression is themed with the act of ‘holding hands’. The window piece displays strength in unity as bras hold tightly to each other as they are stretched across the length. The quote: “Each time a women stands for herself, she stands up for all women. – Maya Angelou” emblazons this piece.

I love how they bra are so creatively use by Ms. Louise to create this window showcase and my favourite would be the ones in 1 Utama Shopping Centre  and Queensbay Mall, Penang! 

Well I had the privilege to attend the XIXILI 10 Anniversary Soft Launch & Bra Art Launch a while ago in their 1 Utama boutique. Besides the launch, we also had a lingerie show featuring a sneak preview of XIXILI Spring / Summer Lingerie Collection 2014.

Enjoy the pictures I had taken and tell me which is your favourite lingerie ya :)

I love how Xixili's model selection as they came in different sizes and height...  and this at least showed Xixili lingerie caters for people in all different sizes. 

I first came to know Xixili many years back when my ex colleague Vanessa introduced them to me. And after I bought my first lingerie from them, I'm their loyal customer since them because they are so comfortable and fits me perfectly! I'm not sure if you know that Xixili is our Malaysian local brand which offers an extensive size range of brassieres from cups A to I and bands 65 – 100.

By the way, which is your favourite pick of the lingerie of the XIXILI Spring / Summer Lingerie Collection 2014 I showed you ? 

I had my eyes fix on No 2 4, 5 and No 11. I was told not all the lingerie shown above are available in store yet as it would be available by batches until the summer seasons ends. 

So in order to know which Xixili lingerie under the Spring / Summer Lingerie Collection 2014 would be made available in store, you got to wait for their announcement in their FB or Instagram.
