Beauty Roundup: Makeup collaborations with Disney and NBA, a new MAC limited-edition collection, and more!

If I say that I’m excited for this week’s beauty roundup, would you still believe me given that I say it every week? Well, it’s true! You know how beauty excites me, and I’m sure it excites you too. There’s quite a lot to talk about this week, so let’s go! 

Some Christopher Robin lovin’ 

Remember when I wrote about arrival of the Baby Bright in the country, in one of my Beauty Roundups? Well, I’m excited to share the brand’s collaboration with Disney Christopher Robin, which includes a 3-piece Honey Velvet Lipstick Set (P897) and 3-piece Lip & Cheek Mousse Tint Set (P897). Personally, just for the packaging alone, this collection is a must-have! Oh, and yes, you can purchase the lipsticks and tints separately for P299 each.

Twist of fate 

MAC Cosmetics recently dropped their fall collection. Tempting Fate features on-trend colors that highlight the succulent flavors of autumn. Of course, the luxurious special-edition, gilded baroque packaging deserves a mention. In addition to the 6 limited-edition lipsticks (P1,150/each), you’ll find 3 Strobe Face Glaze Illuminateurs (P2,050/each), 3 Eye Kohls (P1,400/each) , and Fix+ (P1,350). I know, it’ll be hard to resist this kind of temptation.

A slam dunk 

To all the NBA fans out there, have you heard about the NBA x ColourPop collaboration? You get to choose among 6 collections that represent 6 different teams - Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls, Dallas Mavericks, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, and Miami Heat. What are included in each collection? A 9-pan eyeshadow palette, a crème gel liner duo, a glitter gel, glitter face stickers, and a clear bag. Game (face) on!

Bomb dot com  

Glossier just introduced a new member to the Balm Dotcom family - Cookie Butter! This new variant has a buttery, cinnamon-like, and sweet flavor, and gives off a caramel tint. Think of it as dessert for your lips! Hurry, though, Cookie Butter is available for a limited period only. 

Retinol for all

Need a gentle and fragrance-free retinol treatment? Look no further because Good Molecules recently released the Gentle Retinol Cream (P500). This cream helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and addresses the skin’s lack of elasticity. It also has nourishing and soothing ingredients that hydrate and minimize dryness and irritation. By the way, it’s exclusively available on BeautyMNL until the end of November.

Smooth like Body Butter

Who here has tried The Body Shop’s Body Butters (P950/200ml)? Did you know that it’s been 29 years since the brand launched this iconic product? Well, you’ll be delighted to know that the Body Butters now have a fresh new formula, are certified vegan, give 96 hours of moisture, and come in a 100% recycled tub! Oh, there’s even a new variant - Avocado! Delicious! 

Okay, that’s it for this week! See you again next time!
