No need to panic 

MAC recently dropped Botanic Panic, a limited edition collection that’s all about hyper-vibrant hues and on-trend topiary tones for your eyes, lips, and skin. In the Botanic Panic Collection are the colorful 12-pan Botanic Panic Eyeshadow Palette (P3,450), two Extra Dimension Skinfinish Highlighters (P1,675) in Fleur Sure and Royal Flush, and five Botanic Panic lipsticks (P1,150) in Tulip Service, La-Di-Dahlia, and Forget-Me-Naughty (matte), Ruby Woo (retro matte), and Skew (frost).  

The collection features blooming fabstract fluorescent packaging. Okay, I guess we might need to panic a little. You can shop the collection on Lazada.  

Brows, brows, brows 

New to the Make Up For Ever Aqua Resist family are the Brow Filler, Brow Definer, and Brow Fixer (P1,400/per brow product). Designed to shape, define, and fix the brows, these products give you micro-precision, allowing you to contour, sculpt, and enhance your brows. Since they’re part of the Aqua Resist Family, you can expect them to be waterproof and to last all day. I have tried them already, and they really deliver.

Luxe-ada

La Mer was the talk of the town recently because it celebrated its brand opening on Lazada! Yes, you can now shop for your favorite La Mer products on Lazada! La Mer blazed the trail terms of accessibility when it comes to luxury skincare, and I’m looking forward to seeing other brands follow suit. 

Out of curiosity, what’s your favorite La Mer product? Mine’s the Treatment Lotion!

Mothership has arrived 

Pat McGrath has just released Mothership IX: Huetopian Dream, which features 10 cosmically creamy pigments in five futuristic finishes - velvety matte, mesmerizing metallic, luminous shimmer, mind-altering duochrome sparkle, and transcendental trichrome. It’s exclusively available on the Pat McGrath website, but I hope it’ll be available on Sephora soon! 

Okay, that’s it for this week! See you again next Friday!
