A star is born
‘Tis the season to be sparkly, and MAC Cosmetics has the perfect collection for it! Starring You is a limited edition holiday collection that features everything you’ll need for every kind of makeup look, be it naughtily neutral or splendidly sparkling! There are lipsticks, lipglass, eyeshadows, eye pencils, powder compacts, brushes, makeup kits, lipstick vaults, and even an advent calendar. Oh yes, we’ve got our eyes fixed on the Stars For Days Advent Calendar (P10,500) – it literally has EVERYTHING from lipsticks to Prep + Prime, brow products, and eye shadows!
You can purchase sets like the Lucky Stars Retro Matte Kit in Red (P1,800), the Starry-Eyed Kit in Smoky (P2,900), and the Starring You Lipglass in Counting Stars (P1,200).

ABH in the house
Although we can shop our favorite Anastasia Beverly Hills products online, Rustan’s Makati has given us the ultimate Christmas gift by opening up ABH’s first physical store in the Philippines! You can now swatch and shop the full range of ABH products in person, which admittedly has gotten us all excited!
Time to buy their famous Dip Brow, eyeshadow palettes, contour kits, and foundations without ever “guestimating” if they will work for your skin color and condition. I’m actually thinking of creating my own eyeshadow palette as an early Christmas gift to myself! The ABH store is located on the Ground Floor of Rustan’s Makati, and at Beauty Bar stores nationwide!

The comeback kid?
Jaclyn Hill has just announced that she is coming back with a huge relaunch of her makeup line Jaclyn Hill Cosmetics. After months of excuses, refunds, and loads of internet disappointment and hate, the YouTube beauty guru posted a bunch of teasers on the Jaclyn Hill Cosmetics IG page with the date “11/26/19” on several posts. There’s even a picture of what looks like a palette (perhaps a highlighter?), and a teaser video of Jaclyn and some models looking gorgeous and glowing. How about you - would you buy anything from Jaclyn Hill Cosmetics?

Keep your cool
It may be the Ber months, but the weather has been crazy weird and our makeup game might not be as snatched as we’d want it to be. Not to worry because Ellana Mineral Cosmetics has got us covered! The new Stay Matte Cooling Poreless Powder (P698) is our favorite OG setting powder but with a (literally) cool new twist! Infused with peppermint, the powder not only blurs pores and keeps skin looking matte, but also cools and soothes the skin from the crazy humid weather! Shop the new Stay Matte Cooling Poreless Powder here.
