IKEA Philippines Triumphs with Tambuli Awards 2023 Winning Campaign Video, Crafted by Secret Menu and Directed by JP Habac

IKEA Philippines was recently bestowed a humanity award by the prestigious Asia Pacific Tambuli Awards 2023 for a campaign video produced and directed by Secret Menu, the full-service creative agency and production house under KROMA Entertainment.

 

The 3-minute video entitled  “Hapag” was awarded the Champions for Humanity Bronze Award under the Building Character/Digital and Social Media category. It tells the heartwarming, gender role-defying story of a gay son, his drag queen father, and their love-filled home for IKEA Philippines’ Paskong Pinoy series released in December 2022. 

 

“More than the recognition or award, our main goal at IKEA is to create a better everyday life for the many. This includes promoting diversity, inclusion, and equality—making everyone feel welcome. We hope that this campaign inspires even more inclusive stories from more brands in the industry,” shares Patrick Marcelo, IKEA’s Marketing and PR manager.

 

The video was helmed by prolific director JP Habac whose body of work includes the film “I’m Drunk, I Love You” and LGBTQIA+-themed series such as “Gaya sa Pelikula'' and “Drag You & Me.” Habac was on hand to receive the award together with representatives from IKEA’s Philippine office and KROMA Entertainment.

 

Marcelo adds, “It's important for us as a brand to work with partners who share the same values as us. We are glad to have Secret Menu and JP Habac in bringing our campaign to life through a locally relevant and inclusive story.”

 

Bianca Balbuena, Head of Studios at Secret Menu and production studio ANIMA, celebrates the victory together with IKEA Philippines, a steadfast client of the creative agency since its inception. 

 

“Secret Menu and IKEA share the common vision of putting out engaging content that contributes to the common good of society. This makes the collaboration easy and meaningful,” Balbuena shares days after the awarding ceremony, “ Balbuena said. 

 

Another work by Secret Menu for IKEA, “Queens of the House” by inhouse Director Chyna Lo was also shortlisted by Asia Pacific Tambuli Awards 2023 under the Arts, Culture, and Heritage Category. 

 

These recent recognitions shine the light on the dynamic relationship between the creative agency and the shelter megabrand. Balbuena continues, “These recognitions are a testament to Secret Menu’s capability to deliver IKEA’s message of inclusivity effectively in an entertaining way. It is also a validation that Secret Menu is an agency that businesses and brands can trust and work with. We hope to continue working together in producing heartwarming content with a purpose for the FIlipino audience.” 

 

The Asia Pacific Tambuli Awards 2023 is an award show that recognizes growing business and brands with purpose. It exists “to recognize the contribution of businesses and brands that effectively create a better world for humanity.”

Unlocking Radiant Skin: Artistry Skin Nutrition Introduces the Revolutionary Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+

  

Skincare routines have all sorts of components, but one thing that can’t be overlooked is sunscreen. From the beach or even when you’re just at your desk in front of your computer, sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays, slows down skin aging, maintains an even skin tone, and also lowers the risk of skin cancer. 

 

Amway, the global leader in health and wellness, introduces the ultimate way to protect your skin with their newest Artistry Skin Nutrition™ Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen. The versatile sunscreen goes beyond the ordinary by offering full light protection as well as antioxidant and barrier strengthening benefits against free radicals to maintain the health of your skin in various settings. 

 

Artistry Skin Nutrition’s sunscreen comes with a silky-light texture that glides over skin and absorbs quickly and invisibly to preserve your natural skin tone. It feels hydrating, never greasy that it can be used as a makeup primer and can leave skin looking and feeling healthy. 

What’s Inside?

 

Full light protection comes from its Multi-Filter Blend of five active sunscreen ingredients that provide the brand’s highest level Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB protection with SPF50+/PA++++. The Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen offers more Carnosine Peptide, clinically proven to protect against damaging infrared light and blue light that’s usually emitted from all those screens and electronics devices you use for work and play. 

 

The newest Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen is infused with plant-derived and antioxidant-rich ingredients that are sourced from Amway’s very own Nutrilite™ farms to ensure purity, safety, and effectiveness of the product from seed to skin. It’s formulated with Prevent Complex, a blend of Acerola Cherry, Australian Daisy, and Blackberry that can boost your skin’s defense system by 350% to prevent and delay early signs of aging. It also contains Pomegranate to provide continuous protection from air pollution’s irritating effects and the Patented Brightening Complex with White Chia Seed and Pomegranate to strengthen the skin’s microbiome and brightens the complexion. 

 

Other natural ingredients in the sunscreen are time-released Cica Extract that ensures 8-hour gradual release for all-day efficacy and antioxidant protection, and Chrysanthemum Morifolium Flower Extract that safeguards against free radicals and environmental damage, preventing dullness, wrinkles, and dark spots.

 

Is it clean and paraben-free?

 

Apart from shielding your skin from the harsh rays of the sun and other harmful light, this clean, traceable, certified vegan sunscreen also delivers additional antioxidant protection against other environmental aggressors like pollution, ozone and smoke and barrier strengthening protection against dry, over-air-conditioned areas like offices, stores, and airplanes. 

 

The Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen is also free of oxybenzone and octinoxate that are harmful to coral reef systems—making it the better choice for both your skin and the environment. It also upholds the Artistry Clean standards as it’s formulated with no parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, and over 1,000 other ingredients that you may be concerned about.

 

The sunscreen is recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation, which means that its formula meets the criteria of their volunteer Photobiology Committee. With the Foundation’s seal of approval, Artistry Skin Nutrition ensures that the sunscreen is safe and effective at preventing skin damage that can lead to skin cancer, when used as directed.

 

“We’re proud to include the all-encompassing Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen to our roster of products that are all carefully created to achieve visibly Health Beauty,” says Carla Cruz, the Head of Marketing and Communications at Amway Philippines. “As the last step in an Artistry Skincare Nutrition regimen that requires one to Purify, Balance, Rebuild, Moisturize, and Protect the skin, applying this sunscreen ensures that we’re not only defending our skin from all the external aggressors, but also protecting all the progress we’ve made to satisfy our skin goals now and in the future. It should be an essential part of our daily skincare routine.”  

 

Have more fun out in the sun and feel at more ease indoors with the full light protection and Nutrilite-powered antioxidant benefits of Artistry Skin Nutrition Multi-Defense UV Protect SPF50+ sunscreen.
