Audaciously Sprung

Remember when we first broke the news of NARS’ first ever perfume? Well, Audacious has finally hit Philippine shores! The smoky, musky and sexy fragrance retails for P9,000 and is now available at local NARS counters.

And if the perfume wasn’t enough to get you excited, NARS has also dropped their (literally) cheeky Spring 2020 Edit! The collection consists of the best in glow blushes - perfect for every skin tone and formulated with micronized powders. These blushes are soft, blendable, weightless, and pigmented! Get ready for love-flushed cheeks in 10 new shades in matte and shimmery finishes. Retailing for P1,800 each, the collection includes new shades Orgasm X (shimmer version of Orgasm), Tempted (shimmery beige), Illicit (matte peach nude), Savage (shimmery red brown), Zen (matte beige), Behave (matte pink mauve), Dominate (shimmery deep plum), Aroused (satin deep burgundy), and Thrill (matte cool toned pink) as well as classics like Luster, Torrid, Deep Throat, and Orgasm.

The Maine act

It was so good, they just had to make seconds! Everyone’s favorite funny girl Maine Mendoza is back with MAC for her second MAC Maker launch. The actress has teamed up with the cosmetics giant for another lippie release, but this time they’ve added MAC’s iconic Lip Glass into the mix! Inspired by female strength and empowerment, the limited-edition matte lippie (P1,100) and shiny Lip Glass (P1,200) are the perfect shade of fierce and bold red that brings out the golden luster of Pinay skin tones. It’s even aptly called @mainedcm for Maine’s signature lip color! Pre-order yours on Lazada here.

It’s Morphe Time!

We know, it’s an aged reference but it seemed appropriate given that it’s been a crazy couple of months for beauty guru Jaclyn Hill. The YouTuber has just announced the launch of her second collaboration with Morphe, the Jaclyn Hill Palette Volume 2 ($39). Inspired by the success of her first palette with the brand, the 35-pan palette features a ton of gorgeous pinks, neutrals, and purples, making this the perfect romantic palette for any occasion. And despite photos leaking online before the announcement, Jaclyn did post a video on her channel talking more about the palette and swatching the shades for everyone. She’s also launching new brushes with Morphe, making this launch even more exciting. The palette launches February 13, and is available on the Morphe website here.

Oil I want is you

Come over here, baby! Keeping with the 2020 Glow Vibes, Dior Beauty is launching a new product that’s sure to keep your lips moisturized and plump all throughout the summer. The Dior Lip Glow Oil ($34) is a lightweight, watery feel lip moisturizer aimed to nourish and replenish even the driest and most chapped lips. Available in 8 stunningly vibrant shades, this may just be the perfect change from a matte lippie. Not gonna lie, I’ve got my eye on the shades Pearl (shimmery pink) and Rosewood (bright orange red).
