I Had Breakfast With Rebecca Gibney. Y’know, As You Normally Would.

Olay Renegerist Breakfast with Rebecca Gibney

When I received an email invitation to a breakfast hosted by Olay Regenerist and that I’ll be eating with Rebecca Gibney, I did two things. First, I did a bit of a whoop whoop! Five seconds later, I RSVP-ed a resounding YES. 😀

Non-Australians must now be thinking who the heck is this person I speak of? She’s a Australian TV icon and is very popular for her role as Julie Rafter from Packed to the Rafters. She won a Gold Logie (Aussie version of the Emmys) in 2010 and is the ambassador for Olay Regenerist. Okay, I’ll admit that I don’t really watch Packed to the Rafters but I’m a fan of this very talented and beautiful woman. It was such an amazing opportunity for me to be able to meet her in person and sit across from her too, no less!

Rebecca spoke of her love for Olay since she was young and how endorsing a brand she already loves for many years just came naturally to her. She even raved about the Olay Regenerist face brush, which she actually bought overseas before it was launched in Australia! During her short speech, she called the competitor brushes “unnamed” but when we started chatting, of course we compared it to the Clarisonic. 😉

I understand her love for Olay because my maternal grandma, who turned 93 this year, has been an absolute fan of the brand for most of her life. Rebecca used Olay products for the past 20-30 years. Good ol’ gran’s been using it for 70 years! She still has great skin and wouldn’t move to any other brand, bless her.

I took some pictures of the breakfast and I’ll leave you to ogle at the delicious pastries. 😛

      Me too! I felt a bit awkward at first. How do you tell someone you’re a fan but you don’t watch her show?? 😛
