Make Up Call

September 14, 2012

Site Staff,

Life around the orphanage isn't so bad. Scrubbing the floors always sparks a musical number. The owner makes a mean gin and tonic and the other girls are adorable, if a bit two-dimensional, and sing GREAT back up vocals.

The only problem is that you're starting to suspect that Mrs. Hannigan's "top of the line" beauty products are anything but. Something in the shampoo turned your red locks into a mean afro and that "designer" powder doesn't cover a single freckle.

It's a hard knock off life.

Ditch those discount lines at Lei Chic's first ever Beauty Boutique at DFS Galleria.

For one night only, Lei Chic readers will receive special bonuses for exploring Waikiki's premier spot for beauty products. And since shopping there is tax free, Daddy Warbucks can stay home.

Here's how it works: Walk up to the luxurious, 19,000 square foot Beauty World (on the second floor of DFS Galleria), find the Lei Chic area for pau hana pupu and drinks, pick up a stamp card, then go play! Follow the instructions on the stamp card to receive a goodie bag of beauty samples and a chance to win a $300 beauty gift basket. Try on the latest looks from your choice of more than 50 brands including Dior, M.A.C., Benefit, Anna Sui, Burberry and Kiehl’s.

The first 100 to RSVP for our special event will have a chance to win a free mini-facial, skin care analysis and personal shopping assistance, courtesy of DFS Galleria’s Beauty Concierge (only 24 spaces are available).

Parking is validated at the Waikiki Trade Center for up to three hours, so you'll still have time to browse boutiques of favorites such as Marc by Marc Jacobs, Kate Spade, Michael Kors, Coach, See by Chloe or even the Godiva shop for more goodies at tax free prices.

Meaning you won't have to bet your bottom dollar there'll be fun.

It's only a (few) day(s) away.

Lei Chic's Beauty Boutique will be September 27, 5-8 p.m., DFS Galleria Waikiki, 330 Royal Hawaiian Ave. To RSVP, send an email with your name, address and phone number. For the full How Do I Look? schedule, click here.
