Because Mamonde Malaysia brand ambassador Park Shin Hye will be visiting Malaysia this October. Whether you know Park Shin Hye or not (like me), let’s get to know her first while we wait for her arrival to Malaysia, aight!
8 Facts About Park Shin Hye

#2 – Her first acting debut started in 2003, in a drama called Stairway to Heaven, which earned her the Best Young Actress Award by SBS Drama Awards.

#3 – She was awarded the ‘Popular Foreign Actress Award’ at the Chinese Anhui Drama Awards. Park’s popularity continues to soar with her role as Choi In-ha in the drama Pinocchio which earned her Forbes Korea’s Top 40 Most Popular Celebrities.

The very same year, Mamonde’s Creamy Tint Color Balm which was used by Park in the drama ‘Pinocchio’, saw a sales surge which earned the phenomena, the ‘Park Shin Hye Lipstick Effect.’ Similarly this year, Mamonde’s new Highlight Lip Tint #6 (Pin Spot) which happens to be Park’s favourite, which she also uses in the drama ‘Doctors’, was seen flying off the shelves.
#6 – Mamonde hopes for the same phnomena for its new Cover Powder Cushion with the release of two new TV commercials in June, starring Park Shin Hye and K-pop boy group BTOB’s Sungjae. In the TV commercial, Sungjae was featured as being mesmerised by Park’s beauty which was complemented by the Cover Powder Cushion. The shades of the Cover Powder Cushion are light and bright just like the petals of the Peach flower which gave Park’s face the soft glow.
