Beauty Roundup: New bases from Happy Skin and Detail Cosmetics, The Body Shop All-in-One Stick, MAC Lightful C3, and a new Maybelline mascara!
How’s it going, PV Community? To all the working girls out there, are you reporting back to the office already? I’ll be doing so soon, and one thing that excites me about it is that I’ll get to curate an office makeup bag again. Now, perhaps a product on this week’s beauty roundup list will make the cut.
Second skin
There’s a new tinted moisturizer courtesy of Happy Skin, and it combines skincare, makeup, and sunscreen. Coming in five shades, the Second Skin Tinted Moisturizer (P799) has six skin-caring ingredients - kahai oil to keep skin soft and supple, squalane to give deep moisture, hyaluronic acid to provide lasting hydration, niacinamide to reveal radiant skin, and SPF 20 to protect skin from harmful UV rays. Also, cute packaging, right?
Kiss from a rose
New from Detail Cosmetics is the Fresh Filter Foundation (P499)! Made with 50% pure rose water, this natural, demi-matte finish foundation has a lightweight formula, gives light to medium coverage, and creates a soft-focus filter look. Enriched with ingredients such as centella asiatica, vitamin E, sodium hyaluronate, and niacinamide, this foundation comes in five shades that range from light beige to warm tan. I have a feeling this smells good!
Utterly de-Lightful
The new and expanded MACLightful C3 Collection is finally here! Championing hybrid beauty, this collection features a lineup of innovative skincare and makeup products. Packed with the Lightful C3 Complex - vitamin C, coral grass, and cherry blossoms, up for grabs are the Clarifying Gel-to-Foam Deep Cleanser (P1,850), Radiant Hydration Skin Renewal Lotion (P2,250), Hydrating Micellar Water Makeup Remover (P1,500), Radiant Hydration Skin Renewal Emulsion (P2,250), Radiant Hydration Tone-Up Cream (P2,650), Radiant Hydration Tone-Up Eye Cream (P1,950), Lightful C+ Coral Grass Tinted Primer (P2,700), Naturally Flawless Foundation (P2,000), Quick Finish Cushion Compact (P2,550), and Natural Silk Powder Foundation (P2,000). A de-Lightful lineup, I must say!
Trick or tea tree-at
Need a product to make your skin looking clarified and mattified, and feeling purified and hydrated? Well, The Body Shop has got your back, er, face! Enter the Tea Tree All-in-One Stick (P895), a vegan, multi-functional solid balm that can be used as part of the Tea Tree range, as a makeup base, or for touch-ups. Made with Kenyan tea tree oil and salicylic acid from wintergreen extract, this stick also instantly cools and refreshes the skin. Definitely not a trick!
To new heights
There’s a new Maybelline mascara in town and it’s the Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara (P499). With the flex tower brush and being formulated with bamboo extract and fibers, this waterproof, lengthening, and volumizing mascara delivers impact from every angle. Ah, another Maybelline mascara to fall in love with.
Okay, that’s it for this week! See you next time!
