Hello, PV fam! We’re all hoping that you’re keeping safe and staying healthy in your homes. And if you’re still at work, thank you so much for your service! With everything that’s been going on, we thought you might like a little beauty breather this weekend. Our roundup introduces MAC’s newest Maker (hint: she’s iconic and ageless), and has Louis Vuitton making anti-bacterial hand gels (read on before you freak). ABH also has a new baby, and Urban Decay has an answer to microblading. Happy reading!

Scent-Sational

The rising number of COVID-19 cases is the top global concern of the moment, but it’s also bringing out the best in so many different companies. LVMH, the company that owns luxury brands Louis Vuitton, Dior, Givenchy, and more, has committed to producing anti-bacterial hand gels in place of their couture perfumes. The company announced that their perfume factories will now be used to help alleviate the shortage of hand sanitizers, which play a huge role in minimizing the spread of the disease. The gels will then be distributed to hospitals and health centers all over France for free. They also announced that they would be providing this service “for as long as needed” in their official post on Instagram. If they can do it, here’s hoping that more companies around the world will step up and help combat this virus! Cheers to you, LVMH!

Un-brow-lievable!

If you’ve been too scared to give microblading a try, Urban Decay’s newest product might just be your new BFF. Inked Brow ($26) is a semi-permanent eyebrow gel that is set to last for up to 60 hours! With its angled wand, the product is supposed to help you mimic hair like strokes, similar to microblading. The formula is sweatproof and waterproof, so you can even wear it to the gym or on super hot days without worrying about your brow makeup. And if you make a mistake, don’t worry because the product can be removed with an oil-based makeup remover. Available in 7 shades, we’re curious to see how this’ll survive in the Philippine summer! Shop it from Sephora US here.
