42 Events maltatoday SUNDAY 15 APRIL 2018 Inglot cosmetics announces collaboration with Jennifer Lopez AFTER decades serving as a muse for the makeup industry and a beauty inspiration for women all over the world, Jennifer Lopez is now stepping behind the scenes and debuting a limited-edition col- lection in partnership with global beauty brand Inglot Cosmetics. Launching April 26, the exten- sive colour line will bring Jennifer's and Inglot's shared vision of strong femininity to life and offer women diverse ways to express themselves through beauty. Finally, everyone can now achieve their own authen- tic "J Lo Glow." "The capsule collection we cre- ated with Inglot is filled with all my go-to products in my favourite colours. We have everything from mascara, lipsticks, eyelashes, blush, eye shadow and of course…bronz- ers" said Lopez. "What I think is unique and exciting is our Free- dom System Palette—which allows you to create your own personal- ized palette with the specific col- ours and products that you need. Now you no longer have to buy that 5-piece eyeshadow kit to get the one colour you really want!" Jennifer worked very closely with the Inglot brand on every aspect of the collection including the shade range, ad campaign, packaging and even the product names of the star's skus, which are inspired by her career, such as "Boogie Down Bronze" and "Livin' The High- light." As a global star juggling multiple jobs on top of motherhood, Jen- nifer specifically created the line for women like her who are always on the go. The product collection allows women to create their own unique look, whether they opt for a natu- ral daytime look or going-out- glam, inspired by Jennifer's iconic styles. "We could not have asked for a better partner than Jennifer. She is a true beauty visionary," says Grzegorz Inglot, Vice President of US Operations for Inglot. "In addi- tion to having great style, Jennifer is also quite a beauty expert her- self. After years of working with the best in the business, she has unique insight into what women want as well as which products are necessary to create that beautiful glow that she made famous." The 70-piece collection ranges from powders to lipsticks, shad- ows to eyelashes and cosmetic pal- ettes. All colours in the line were created and handpicked by Jen- nifer herself. The star of the col- lection is the Freedom System that allows consumers to create unique palettes with over 300,000 pos- sible combinations. The expertly formulated products will range in shades from nude to glow, with a touch of smoky glam and the key products in the line will include an illuminator, a bronzer, a gloss and a mascara. "It is indeed a great honour for Inglot to partner up with one of the greatest stars of all time. J Lo has not only been an idol for so many women but most im- portantly a source of inspiration for all those career women who love fashion and follow the latest trends, while at the same time take pride in looking impeccable at any time of day or night," concluded Rachel Vella Director at ROCS Group, franchisees for Inglot Mal- ta, Libya and Yemen. The line launches globally on April 26th in all Inglot outlets GO customers upgraded for free to 4G+ speeds nationwide of up to 210Mbps ALL GO mobile customers were upgraded for free to faster mobile internet speeds of up to 210Mbit/s following the launch of GO's 4G+ nationwide service. This is the result of a multi-million Euro in- vestment in GO's infrastructure, and part of its continuous effort to improve its customer's experi- ence. In addition to faster internet speeds, customers can also ex- pect to experience significantly improved indoor coverage. This means that customers can contin- ue to enjoy all their applications, music streaming and all other mobile internet activity with far greater speeds, at any place and at any time. "Today is an important day for GO, and for Malta, as we continue to invest in what is already one of the best mobile networks in Eu- rope. GO is not only able to deliver Fibre connected 4G+ nationwide with immediate effect, but has al- so put in place the foundations for 5G," GO's CEO Nikhil Patil, said. "We are listening to our custom- ers, we are understanding their changing needs and are putting every effort into ensuring that our customers can continue to enjoy the fastest, and most reliable net- work in Malta." The launching of 4G+ fol- lows the recent allocation of the 800Mhz spectrum by the Malta Communications Authority. This allocation became possible fol- lowing extensive co-ordination with both local and international stakeholders. BNF Bank's Casual Fridays initiatives continue to reap benefits for a growing number of beneficiaries in Malta and Gozo. Last year's Casual Fridays initiative has raised over €5,000! On the last Friday of every month, BNF Bank employ- ees donate a small amount to a different cause. At the be- ginning of each year, all personnel are asked to nominate a beneficiary to offer these monthly donations to. A few of the chosen organisations benefitting from the month- ly contributions were the Foodbank, Right2Smile, Eu- ropaDonna, Mater Dei Hospital Children's Wards, the Ursuline Sisters besides many others. "Casual Fridays is not only an opportunity for staff to come into work in their casual wear but also to get en- gaged and play an active role in society with our small but significant donations," said Alison Grech, Coordi- nator of the Bank's Human Resources Unit. "Each year the Bank tries to find new ways to be more involved in society's wellbeing not by just donating a monetary con- tribution but more importantly by donating time." Prestigious Leed Green Building Certification for The Centre at Tigne Point THE Centre, the state-of-the-art office block which recently opened for business at Tigne Point, has announced that it has just been awarded LEED Gold accreditation. The LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating system, developed by the US Green Building Council, is the foremost program for buildings, homes and communities which are designed, constructed, maintained and oper- ated for improved environmental and human health performance. This is the first time the Gold level of accreditation has been awarded to a local development and con- firms The Centre's commitment to achieving minimal environmental impact on its surroundings. The Centre achieved LEED cer- tification for implementing practi- cal and measurable strategies and solutions aimed at achieving high performance in: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. "We are delighted to receive this award. Achieving LEED certifica- tion is more than implementing sustainable practices. It represents our commitment to make a positive contribution to the environment by developing a healthy, green and high-performance building. There is a growing need and demand for green buildings across all sectors and organisations and hopefully this award and recognition will en- courage others to follow suit" Said The Centre's CEO JanKarl Farrugia. Consisting of two blocks con- nected via an atrium bridge over- looking the historic Garden Battery, which is also currently undergoing restoration, The Centre is the lat- est phase at the award winning unique mixed-use development to be completed. The Centre provides 15,000sq.m of office space over nine floors and a prime and central lo- cation with extensive views, both seafront and the piazza. Set within in the heart of Sliema, tenants at the Centre also enjoy a car-free envi- ronment with catering facilities and retail units nearby. This latest project has already tapped into the growing demand for high quality, centrally located office accommodation and is fully tenanted . Developed at a cost of €28million over a period of two and a half years, this project has employed circa 100,000 man days. The particular attention given to the sustainable design of the building has led to this prestigious award. Furthermore, the building has been fitted out to the highest specifications complete with a state-of-the-art IT services backbone and centralised HVAC heating and cooling throughout the building. BNF Bank employees show their generosity all year round
