Maybelle Padillo Releases Official Music Video for "Para Kanimo," Showcasing the Beauty of Cebu

Super excited to share my entry! It's not much, but I spontaneously decided to create a makeup content and challenge myself with the ongoing #IndianMakeupTrend. The first thing that came to mind was that I lacked the resources and didn't want to spend the entire day searching for them. With just one day due to work schedule constraints, I began making a list of what to do, things to prepare, and what I needed, including jewelry.

As for the veil, I glued a plethora of glitters onto my background cloth and added some designs. And here's the final look!
