Clinique-al Experience

I attended the official opening of Clinique in Nigeria today. While the launch which was held at the Radisson Blu Anchorage Hotel in Victoria Island, didn't quite have enough media representatives in attendance - compared to the MAC which launched same day, same venue - the brand packaging was quite brilliant, not often seen her.

Well, all good and perfect it's definitely great to have e an international skin brand as this officially be in Nigeria. Can't wait to participate in their upcoming activities and most assuredly start my trial period with all the lovely products I received.
