Philosophy, a brand founded in the US, has recently opened their first store in Metro Manila and I was blessed to be invited to the VIP Launch this February! It was held at the Mega Fashion Hall in SM Megamall.
I arrived pretty early at the venue so I took some pictures while no one was still around.

Lovin' these Petal-inspired seats! |

Some products they laid out for us to try. |
They also prepared some booths - Joy and Grace, which showcased some of their products.
|
In the end, it all comes down to one word, Grace. |
|
My favorite section: Oh the Joy of Bath and Body products! |
Aside from touring the venue for the VIP launch, I also visited their store by following this path:
|
A road paved with positivity. |
Upon entering, I first noticed the lovely ceiling they created. Pictures of their products and some inspiring words were lit up to greet visitors. |
|
Don't forget to look up when visiting their store at SM Megamall. |
|
Look up! :) |
Since I am new to the world of Philosophy, I decided to read a bit on how this brand was created and how it has evolved to reach our shores.

History of Philosophy |
I explored more of the store to become more acquainted with their products and read their inspiring messages on the walls.

I could only stare smiling at this bathtub full of goodies! |

Lovely advice from Philosophy. |
I was also able to fancy a little chat with Robin White, the World Brand Ambassador of Philosophy. I told her I am a nurse and she suggested for me to try some Philosophy fragrances popular to nurses in the US - the Amazing Grace and Pure Grace. She said these were popular to nurses and patients since the products are mild smelling and do not irritate the patients. I tried a whiff and true enough, the product was not offensive to my senses. They both have a mild, powdery scent. I am glad she suggested these fragrances so I could try them out and recommend them to co-nurses looking for the right scent while on duty.

Thank you SM Megamall and Philosophy for inviting me to this event! Will visit Philosophy once again pretty soon!
Love,
