After eight intensive months of auditions and challenges in SK-II Beauty Bound Season Two, one winner has risen above hundreds of hopefuls and has been crowned by Chiara Ferragni, Global Fashion Icon & Global Judge Beauty Bound Season Two as Asia’s next big beauty name to watch out for. Culminating in Okinawa, Japan, the final battle saw nine aspiring beauty creators pit themselves against each other in a series of heart-thumping challenges set in the wild. At the end of two grueling days, Fairuz Nadia Anuar of Malaysia or better known as @innermaverick on her social media channels such as Instagram and Youtube channel eventually won the hearts of fans and judges with her creativity, charisma and conviction.

To be named the winner of Beauty Bound, contestants had to embark on their final challenge—an epic beauty adventure in the depths of the Okinawan jungle in Japan.  Contestants had to complete a variety of beauty social challenges with the brand’s iconic Facial Treatment Essence and create a 60 second  #FaceTheWild video inspired by the films of SK–II’s latest campaign—SK–II Face The Wild | Face the Camera Extreme Expedition series with National Geographic. After 48 hours jam-packed with wild adventures, beauty experiments and hectic editing, the nine finalists presented their final video to the global panel of judges headed by Chiara Ferragni, Global Fashion Icon.

SK-II never fails to fascinate me with their grand event setup and last week SK-II celebrates Valentine’s Day with a short and sweet party at Mid Valley Centre Court. Not only red roses were decorated all over the #changedestiny house but also with three Malaysia celebrities.

Earlier before the event, fans of Nicholas Teo, local artist who has made it big in Taiwan made their way to the event area way earlier to catch a glimpse of their favourite artist. He sang one of his classic Chinese song “Because of You” and that melted the heart of every single fans of his right there and then. He also gave out red roses to the ladies in the attendance. Fans goes crazy!

It is a Valentine’s Day event therefore it will not be complete without the appearance of celebrity actors and newlyweds Nazim Othman, together with his wife Bella Dally. Both of them shared with the audience their skincare tip, date night preparation and a little insight into their married life. But of course they undergo SK-II Magic Ring skin consultation to get a better understanding of their skin and their skin age.

If you ever walk past a SK-II event, do stop and ask for a Magic Ring skin analysis. Don’t get intimidated with the fact that it is SK-II because the beauty consultants are always very helpful even if you are just finding out more on the products.
