At first glance, it looks like an art show filled with dazzling colors and bold brushwork. Look closer and you’ll see it’s made from something unexpected—discarded makeup. From Palette to Palette is here from 10 July to 31 August 2025 across Lendlease malls, inviting shoppers to engage with sustainability through beauty.

Spearheaded by celebrity makeup artist Elain Lim, this interactive initiative blends art and advocacy. Visitors can explore her expressive works made from cosmetic waste, pick up beauty sustainability tips, and even trade their own used items for Lendlease Plus$ rewards.

Shoppers who drop off items such as eyeshadows, blushers, and textiles at various malls during the exhibition period will earn rewards, while also supporting an eco-conscious cause. For those looking to get hands-on, every $50 spent unlocks a pass to join Eco-Chic Workshops, where participants create artwork using upcycled makeup palettes.

Another standout feature is Heartfelt Creations, Up for Bids, where exclusive art by ComLink+ youth talents is auctioned through the Lendlease Plus app. Each token earned with a $50 spend becomes a chance to bid on one-of-a-kind pieces. Every winning bid is matched in value by Lendlease Global Commercial REIT as a donation to the Gift-A-Family initiative.

Turn Points into Purpose

All activities offer a chance to accumulate Lendlease Plus$ points, which can be redeemed for shopping and parking. For example:

• 10,000 Plus$ = $5 Lendlease Gift Voucher

• 2,000 Plus$ = $1 Lendlease Park Plus$

These Park Plus$ can be used to offset carpark charges at Lendlease malls, making every visit more convenient and cost-effective. This system rewards not just purchases, but positive environmental actions, encouraging shoppers to recycle, upcycle, and choose sustainable alternatives.

Points can be earned easily by uploading qualifying receipts from participating stores, with higher earnings for Premium Members.

With art, rewards, and a strong message, From Palette to Palette proves that sustainable living can be stylish, meaningful, and rewarding.
