Nina Ellaine Dizon, the founder and chief executive officer of the Colourette Cosmetics, made a rounds online after she made a twitter post looking for the Philippine President - "Where is the President?", her twitter post which contains only one hashtag is enough to cause online commotion after the pro and anti-government shared their opinions too.

With the attack to the president, the administration's supporters flocked on her social media account.

Wow ang dami nanaman DDS sa page ko. Ya’ll don’t even need to defend the President if you think he’s doing such a great job. Let the results speak for itself. Wag kayong *anga.

— Nina (@theninaellaine) November 12, 2020

Below are some of the replies of the her twitter post from both sides.

If this is about the typhoons, again, I can bet he is doing better job than the previous presidents.

How about a fact check Ms Nina?
Rolly & Ulysses combined together has lower number of deaths & missing individuals than the previous typhoons from the previous administrations.💁‍♀️

The cosmetic line owner's original tweet was posted on the same day when the president addresses the nation on a six minute taped speech explaining why he cannot be physically present on the typhoon's affected areas. 

"It's not that I am at a distance from you. Gusto kong pumunta doon, makipaglangoy sa inyo. Ang problema pinipigilan ako kasi daw pag namatay ako isa lang ang Presidente. Sabi ko may Vice President naman. Wala silang sinasagot," - the president said.

English translation: "It's not that I am at a distance from you. I wanted to go there, to swim with all of you. The problem is I was prohibited because if I die, there is only one President. I said there is the Vice President. They didn't respond." 

The president still eloborated the details that despite his desire to visit his affected countrymen, he was guarded by the PSG members and his doctor. "Binabawalan ako ng nagbabantay sa akin, PSG, doktor. Hindi ako makalabas. Sabi ko gusto ko magpakita sa tao. Ang sabi nila bantayan 'yung pagkatao ko," pointing to his chest. "Kasi ako ang Presidente." 

English translation: I was prohibited to go out by the PSG and my doctor. I cannot go out. I said I want to show up in the public. They said I needed to be protected because I was the President. 

Meanwhile, the former president protocol officer, Jasmin Egan, had posted this on her facebook account. The CEO even dared her bashers saying that she will cancel herself all orders from DDS customers who purchased from 11.11 event.

Para sa lahat ng mga die hard DDS na nagorder nung 11.11, paki comment ang order number. Ako na mismo magcacancel ng order niyo.

— Nina (@theninaellaine) November 12, 2020

Just to show her commitment to her words, she bravely responded to one of her customers saying that he is not a loss on her company.

G lang po. Hindi po kayo kawalan. pic.twitter.com/xrDTfoQmHW

Some of the twitter showed their sympathy on the brave business owner.

This is one of the main reason kung bakit hindi nakakapanghinayang bumili sa mga products ni Miss Nina in general. A CEO utilizing her platform wisely, not afraid of getting trolled and bashed by expressing her dissent against bad governance.

It appears that the Colourette Cosmetics is one hundred percent owned by Nina Ellaine Dizon after seeing her posting government rants while tagging along the cosmetic brand.
