Shopee PH celebrates Beauty Week from June 21 to 27 with a storewide sale



"I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass." —Maya Angelou


What empowers you as a woman ? What would be your best answer? I guess mine as a mother would be that,  I raised my children well, knowing that they are now stable, strong  and has a family of their own, is enough for me to rest on my laurels. Now that I am alone, I get to enjoy the rest of my life traveling and do things that I dont have time before.

Shopee PH  talks about women empowerment and its impact to those around us. The event featured three different talk show sessions where the five women shared personal stories on various topics, including how the media has influenced the standards of beauty, their struggles with overcoming society’s expectations of women, and how they managed to achieve success in both their careers and personal lives.





Shopee  partners with Grab and Beauty Brands Maybelline and Palmolive to bring together 5 Women Rights advocates  in celebration of women empowerment last June 19 at Okada Grand Ballroom.

 As part of Shopee’s Beauty Fair event, the women 2013 Miss World, Megan Young, actress KC Concepcion, and blogger influencers Martha Jante, Kristine Roces and Helen Payawal each shared their personal stories on how they overcame society’s beauty standards, and to encourage Filipina women to do the same.

In line with the Beauty Fair event, Shopee will also be celebrating Beauty Week from June 21 to 27. Users can expect up to 95% off the health and beauty category on top of a storewide sale, exclusive deals and bundles, P199 below collections and many more. Users can look forward to massive savings on a wide variety of items including makeup, skincare, haircare and other health and personal care items.





I enjoyed listening to the speakers especially with KC Concepcion's words of wisdom. She really had it in her. She is strong and beautiful and has a brilliant mind to speak with.



Jane Lim, Director of Shopee Philippines, said, “Shopee’s Beauty Fair is a celebration of women and their success, and we are proud to partner Maybelline and Palmolive for this event both leading beauty brands who share the same belief that women should be celebrated as they are. Beauty Fair was conceptualised as part of Shopee’s continued commitment to empowering Filipina across the country. We hope that this serves as an inspirational platform for more women to take a step towards achieving their goals.” 






2013 Miss World Megan Young on empowerment and standing up for yourself 

As a speaker at the event, Young shared about her journey to being crowned 2013 Miss World, and how the title has since placed her in a position to inspire young women around her. 

“Joining Miss World 5 years ago really took me out of my comfort zone and challenged me to be more confident. After being crowned, I realised I was in a position where I had the power to influence young women, and I wanted to do my part to encourage them to stand up for themselves. I used to just shrug off people who say insensitive or hurtful comments, but now call them out and tell them they’re wrong, and I encourage all women to not be afraid to do the same,” shared Young. 

Young’s success in her acting career is also a reflection of her commitment to empowering women, choosing only to act in powerful female roles. She currently stars in the drama,The Step Daughters, where she plays a young, fearless woman named Mayumi who changes her destiny by being tenacious and true to herself.
