Happy birthday, Five Beauty!
It seems like it was only yesterday when we were getting to know Five Beauty, the brand that helps us get #ReadyInFive, but the brand turns one this month! The brand has come so far in just one year with their unique one-and-done Hybrid Colour Stick. So far, they have released new shades, a unique applicator brush, and even a cute mess-free silicone pouch.

Happy 6th birthday, Teviant!
This week, Teviant founder and celebrity makeup artist Albert Kurniawan officially celebrates the brand’s 6th anniversary. In previous editions of our BNR, we covered the brand’s new releases for the celebration. The birthday bash continues with Teviant’s latest release: Lip Affair–Lip Glass.

If you love a high-shine lip finish, you simply cannot miss the Teviant Lip Glass (P595). Infused with Meadowfoam Seed Oil, Shea Butter, and Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, the Lip Glass will definitely keep your lips soft and hydrated without feeling greasy. Special light-reflecting pigment ‘pearls’ add that high-shine sparkle for any occasion.

There are a total of eight (8) shades available: Delusion (mulberry purple with fine monochrome pearls), Fantasy (lightning fuchsia with fine pink pearls), FOMO (candy orange with pink pearls), It’s Giving (sheen coco brown with pink iridescent pearls), No.1 Fan (translucent light pink with multi-chrome pearls), Supernova (purple iridescent with lilac pearls), That’s Hot (sheen light bronze with opal and champagne pearls), and TY Next (sheen melon pink with fine gold pearls). I love how it adds dimensional shine to any look whether used on its own or as a topper!

New Careline Multistick Shades
Who else remembers one of the first trending Careline products to make the rounds online a few years back? Yes, it’s the Multistick: a convenient multi-use stick available in blush, highlight, and contour shades. The stick packaging made it easy to tote around, and the buildable, blendable, cream formula was a dream to use! It was definitely one of the products that made beauty lovers realize that local brands are stepping it up. Well now it’s back, better than ever before. That’s right, the Careline Multistick (P220) is back with a vengeance, this time sporting a lineup of fourteen (14) shades!

And now it’s time to party–an arm swatch party! I’m so excited to try the new Color-Adapt shade for that sheer, natural wash of color! Other new shades to join the lineup are Salmon, Strawberry, Pumpkin, Mauve, Terracotta, Chestnut, Taupe, and Caramel. The OG shades Contour, Rose, Flush, and Strobe have also been restocked.

And when Careline said it was multi-use, they meant it! The Multistick can be used on lips, cheeks and eyes, even to color-correct, bronze, highlight, and contour! This is such a great option for those who apply makeup or retouch on-the-go.
And that’s it for this week’s Beauty News Roundup! There are celebrations all around, and the festive thrill of the Christmas season is also upon us. I very much look forward to what the beauty world has in store for us this holiday season. See you on the next edition!
