Kylie Jenner’s Kylie Cosmetics Launch

After years of waiting, Kylie Cosmetics was finally launched in Malaysia – and we were among the first to lay our eyes on its range of goodies. The beauty brand founded by Kylie Jenner has come a long way since its beginnings in 2015, and fans in Malaysia can finally enjoy the brand’s lineup, from lip products to foundations and highlighters. 

During the launch, we got to try what the brand offers for the Malaysian market, including its beloved liquid lipsticks and lip pencils. We also got to experience Kylie Cosmetics’ Cosmic Eau De Parfum in all of its glory with the experiential room, which was a delight for the eyes and the nose. After the official launch, guests hit the dance floor, accompanied by the music of the Malaysian all-female music collective, Cherry Bomb.

Kylie Cosmetics is now available in Sephora MY stores nationwide and online on the Sephora website and app.

Star Academy National Finals 2024

We were on hand when Jason Dennis D’cruz from Te Amo, representing KL/Selangor, was crowned Malaysia’s top bartender at the 2024 Star Academy National Finals at Chateau DC Sky Forest in Bandar Utama. The champ beat competitors from Sabah, Sarawak, KL/Selangor, Johor, Penang, and Perak to clinch the win and a spot at the Heineken® Global Bartender Finals in Amsterdam, the home of Heineken®, for the ultimate title: Heineken® World’s Best Bartender.

Jimmy Ding, Sales Director of Heineken Malaysia, said: “2024 is a record-breaking year for participation. We saw over 1,300 talented bartenders from across the nation stepping up and showing off their incredible skills and passion for the craft. At Heineken Malaysia, we believe that serving the best beers to our customers goes beyond the brewery, and that starts with us working hand-in-hand with our trade partners and bartenders.”
