K-Beauty fans, unite! A new skincare clinic is in town and it’s being run by people who are set to bring Korea’s well-loved aesthetic treatments to the Philippines. We caught news that they also brought with them the popular semi-permanent blush and glow treatment that are perfect for those who are always on the go! More about that later on.

Mi-Yong Alliance (MYA), the country’s pioneer Korean Beauty Academy recently held the grand opening of its new office last Saturday (September 29) at Greenhills, San Juan City. However, this team has already been giving Korean skin care courses to Filipino clients as early as 2016! They just made it way easier now for clients who are in search for the latest K-Beauty trends to avail of specific treatments they want under just one roof – Hallyu Secret Aesthetics.

“This all started with our hope to share quality skills and the latest trends to Filipinos. Our journey for the last 2 years was not easy. Kris and I would always fight about many things, there were a lot of times that we wanted to stop working and give-up. But as we make classes, batch after batch, there is a growing obligation and responsibility to our clients whom we consider our children in the industry. We could not stop aiming the best for them that why we keep giving opportunities to people grow with us as well. Some examples are our instructor course programs and K-Beauty Olympics. We know that this kind of programs will totally change their future,” Mi-Young Alliance, Korea Chairman, Raphael Jang shared.
SEMI-PERMANENT MAKEUP
Philippine CEO Kris Candyd Sibal also introduced Hallyu Secret Aesthetics treatments, headlines by its newest services like the BB Glow, XY Blush, and 24K Gold Therapy.

“MYA has successfully made a reputation as the Korean beauty academy who consistently bring ‘first in the Philippines’ beauty treatments. This is made true by the Korean style permanent make-up, BB Glow and Semi-Permanent Mascara which are widely available to many salons, clinics and skin care center today. Hallyu Secret’s system was adopted from a famous beauty center in Gangnam, Seoul named Pretty Face Clinic wherein Chairman Jang is also one of the directors of the said clinic,” PCEO Sibal added.
EYEBROW MICROBLADING
MYA’s head instructor LK Park was also present at the event. If you’ve been following our blogs, she’s the same person behind our eyebrows on fleek!

“There are a lot of wrong cases in Philippines, a lot of clients go to us for correction of their brows. This is what our academy is famous for after all. PMU has evolved through time, today it doesn’t only focus on the brows, eyeline and lips, it became a procedure now for those who have scars, bald scalp, and those with dark areolas. It became a solution to cover-up the insecurities of people. Here at Hallyu Secret all these kinds of PMU services are available. From making your brows on fleek up to coveing the baldness of your head,” she said.
