With a mantra “When women support each other, incredible things happen,” the annual event of Indonesia’s Beautiful Women arises as an inspirational podium for women to share their experience together.

The Indonesia’s Beautiful Women intimate dinner awarding night won’t reach its success without our partner AXA Financial Indonesia. Also from the support from our co-sponsors SAMKIM skincare and cosmetics, UBS gold and jewelry, The Hermitage, as well as Hello Beauty in providing the magic hands of their makeup artists and hair stylists. This year’s celebration feels special because HighEnd is collaborating with AXA Financial Indonesia that just launched its newest insurance product, Maestro Prestige Link.
