Ystilo Salon Sponsors Filipino Bloggers Worldwide 1st Grand Eyeball

The Filipino Bloggers Worldwide group celebrated its First Grand Eyeball / Anniversary / Christmas Party last Friday night December 7, 2012 at a small and modest portion of the Megatrade Hall 2 of SM Megamall in Mandaluyong.

An approximate less than a hundred bloggers attended the event scheduled at 6 pm until 10 in the evening.

Great food and raffle prizes from generous sponsors were provided to all the bloggers and some guests. Sponsors included MannyO wines , ShareLeaf Tea, Speed Magazine, Breakfast Magazine, Azta Salon, ExLink Events, Minute Burger, Water For Less Purifying System, Tough Brat Bags, and a few more others including Ystilo Salon owned by the actress Vina Morales.

When I was a kid, Vina Morales is the one of the actresses that I admired most. I did not expect that today I'm not only admiring her as an actress but also as an entrepreneur/businesswoman.

I like her Ystilo Salon especially her shampoo and conditioner which they gave away for free for every blogger present at the event. 

The event venue was actually shared with another event, I think an Expo for OFW's Balikbayans, etc.The organizers occupied a portion of the Megatrade Hall and modified the existing stage to serve as an alternative stage for the FBW Grand Eyeball.

Formed by Tess Chancellor, the FBW group is composed of more than 2000 members. Unfortunately, less than 5 percent attended the event because the group is actually composed of even bloggers based outside the country, and also, other events were done at the same time. Too many events are happening nowadays because Christmas is fast approaching and almost everyone else is having their own group Christmas Party.

There were a lot of familiar faces and a few new faces. Gosh! I can't really imagine the fact that I've most of them already. ....or is it just because many of the Filipino or Pinoy bloggers do not really mingle with the rest of the blogging community.

I would like to thank Ystilo Salon for providing loot bags for every blogger. The loot bags contained a shampoo and conditioner in a Christmas themed box which says "Merry Christmas".
