Lux evolves into a myriad roses

-

Visitors to Majestic City were somewhat taken aback when they saw what appeared to be a giant pink rock in the middle of a Rose garden. Sudath Abeysekara of Artway Gallery was seen to be chipping away at the rock when lo and behold beautiful roses were seen to be coming out of the rock and taking their place in the Lux Rose Garden!

The crowds who had gathered to view this spectacle were amazed and wowed by what was going on and were eager to participat­e in the activities which included guessing the number of roses that would go into making up the fragrance of each Lux soap bar. The Compere who was popular film star Dinakshie Priyasad, whose task was to involve the spectators in the activity and get them to guess the correct number of Roses had an easy task, as all those present were only too happy to involve themselves in what was indeed a unique event, while it also presented a fantastic photo opportunit­y, with Selfies galore being uploaded. In fact Facebook was open for people to tag the Lux page and upload their guesses instantane­ously.

Those who were fortunate enough to guess the correct number of roses that went into creating the fragrance of 1 Lux soap bar – a breathtaki­ng 10,000 , were Sajee, Shavini, Zarrjun, Chathurika, Vijitha Edirisingh­e, Dharshika Sanjeewani and M Sameer , all of whom happened to be visiting Majestic City at that moment and were lucky enough to make the correct guess . They were rewarded by being invited to the gala House of Lux extravagan­za which will be held on 20th June at the Hilton Colombo whilst also being rewarded with exciting prizes at the venue. What’s more, all the lucky winners are entitled to a free makeover for the occasion as well !
