Overcoming the challenges of growing social enterprise Love, Mei has made Rebecca Eu a stronger person. She shares with Charmaine Lee how she relies on her mum’s unwavering support and the beauty miracle products by Cambridge Therapeutics to help her manage her hectic schedule and her skin
FOR REBECCA EU, LIFE CAN ONLY BE described as a fairy tale. The youngest child of Eu Yan Sang non-executive chairman, Richard Eu, and his wife Mary, describes a golden childhood filled with flouncy dresses and elaborate birthdays. In 2013, she made her debut at Paris’ Le Bal des Débutantes, and stood alongside Italian princesses and English royals, dressed in a couture gown by Alexis Mabille.
But this story is not about her personal life: it is a story about serving those who have suffered in the dark, dreaming about the luxuries most of the world perceives as simple indulgences. In 2015, Rebecca visited the Philippines for the first time to meet and hear the stories of victims of human trafficking and sexual assault, a dark and painful problem she felt most people did not pay enough attention to.
