KEEPING beautiful is hard work. That is the reason many lovely ladies often take time off to pamper themselves with a massage or treatments at the salon during their free time. And if you happen to be an envoy or a diplomat’s spouse, there is much pressure to always put your best foot forward.

Celebrity beauty specialist Vicki Belo, founder of the Belo Medical Group, treated recently the love ladies of the diplomatic corps to an exclusive luncheon at her sumptuous home in Makati City. After a lavish feast that had the ladies oohing and aahing, they were introduced to the latest and innovative procedures and products now available at Belo clinics.

Among those present that afternoon were a number of deputy heads of missions and ambassadors’ wives, including Kai Wang (Austria), Sylvia Tay-Van Remoortele (Belgium), Isabelle Garachon (France), Sameera Alkamaly (Iraq), Evelyn Farounbi (Nigeria), Fehmina Safdar (Pakistan), Gracita Sieber (Switzerland), Embassy of Argentina Chargé d’Affaires Monica Derregibus and Embassy of Venezuela Chargé d’Affaires Yelitza Ventura Polanco, among others.

Before the ladies went on their merry ways after the presentation, they were all gifted with a box of tempting Belo Beauty Chocolates that would soon be available in all clinics.
