BYS x M.O.V.E lipsticks are especially formulated to endure all rigorous dance routines including the everyday dance of life.

Make it — Own it — Value it — Elevate it. This is the philosophy behind M.O.V.E (or the acronyms), the latest lipstick range by celebrity dance coach and G-Force founder Teacher Georcelle Dapat-Sy partnered with the well-known Australian cosmetic brand BYS that offers women quality cosmetics at an affordable price.

BYS x M.O.V.E lipsticks consist of rich and creamy matte shades, ranging from muted hues to bright and dark reds, ready to take on any situation.

They come in eight shades where four are nude and the rest, bold.

The nude shades are: Freestyle, which is light brown in hue almost similar to caramel; Beastmode, which is a darker brown in hue almost like milk chocolate; Warmed Up, which is pinkish brown that looks almost similar to a dusty pink or, to be frank, pink bagoong (shrimp paste); and Pin Up, which is a lighter pink version of Warmed Up.

The bold shades are: the bright red On Pointe; Shablam, which is a mix of bright red and orange in hue; Fly Girl, a cross between purple and maroon and Humbhaaam, a blend of pink and red.

At the launch held at G-Force Studio, Teacher Georcelle was generous enough to welcome everyone herself and answer questions from the press.

Teacher Georcelle talked about her successful collaboration with BYS, “They gave me the freedom to be creative. It took me about three months to come up with M.O.V.E. and I enjoyed every bit of the process. I would do it all over again!”

When asked for lipstick advice, Teacher Georcelle answered, “It depends on every situation and every occasion. If we need something simple but still popping, we have four nude shades to choose from, each one special in its own way. I love them because they are so useful.”

She elaborated, “When you use heavy eyeshadow, you must tone down the lips and use my nude shades. In fact, nude lipsticks are what my team and I at G-Force use early in the morning because these are acceptable shades at our 6 a.m. call time.

Oh, and especially date nights, nude lipsticks are ideal because it wouldn’t look messy after a kiss,” she giggled.

The nude shades, she added, can even be used by male dancers or for male models in photoshoots.

“For all lippies, you just need to adjust the layer in your desired shade. One layer is already visible in shade but the more layer, the sharper the color. Oh, and best of all, it does not dry your lips so you can wear it for the whole day. You can keep retouching. It was formulated to care for the lips.”

“Each lippie is housed in swanky brass, silver and black bullet cases that doubles as a necklace. Not only is it convenient and light but also very sassy and specially designed as an accessory. You can wear it around your neck. If it doesn’t match your outfit, which is impossible, you can just keep it underneath. And you can also put it in your pocket. Just wear it, and pak!” Teacher Georcelle exclaimed in enthusiasm.

The tube version costs P449, while the chained lippies costs P649.

“And what else makes it special?” Teacher Georcelle said. “Well, M.O.V.E. is also a movement, a reminder to keep moving or to ‘make it, own it, value it, and elevate it.’ I’m just using every way I can to spread happiness and the gift of dance. I want something na magmamarka (that will make a mark) and when you use M.O.V.E., every time you will make a mark.”

As Teacher Georcelle declares, “The generation today inspires me. They make themselves heard and they will engage in important discussions. They will not be silenced especially not verbally.

They will use their lips and, of course, that is why our lips always need to pop through BYS x M.O.V.E lipsticks.

“This movement is important because we are missing the human connection. We all need to keep talking and making connections. M.O.V.E!”

Now the question is, what could be Teacher Georcelle’s next move — or should I say M.O.V.E. — be?
