Just put four items in your cart, use the code B3FREE1 upon checkout, and you'll get the cheapest item in your cart for free!

(Sakura) Blooming this season
Just as we guessed, local beauty love Happy Skin has branched out into skincare! The Happy Skin Beauty Sakura Bloom Collection is the brand’s first step into “effortless” skincare, using top quality ingredients and manufacturing in Japan and Korea. The Sakura Bloom Hydrating Skin Booster (P799) is the perfect mist for tired, stressed out skin while the Brightening Peeling Gel (P799) is a gentle exfoliator that reveals softer, brighter skin. Both are already out in Happy Skin stores as well as on happyskincosmetics.com and BeautyMNL!

Sephora’s Not-So-Ordinary Mood
It’s been a good year for Sephora. From widening their beauty to selection to include brands like ColourPop, Kiehl’s, Fenty Beauty and more, the international online beauty mecca is making us salivate even more with news of their latest addition: The Ordinary! The Canadian skincare brand has been making waves for its cheap price tag and great quality formulations, and we'll soon be able to hoard 'em along with our other Sephora staples. As per WWD, The Ordinary’s famous products like the Retinoid ($10) and Hyaluronic Acid ($7) will be available on Sephora’s website and in stores come March 2018. Here’s hoping that Sephora Philippines will also start stocking up on The Ordinary very soon!

Skin like an heiress
Remember when we discovered Paris Hilton’s beloved secret makeup line? Well, apparently the heiress isn’t done with the beauty world just yet! Aside from makeup products, Paris will soon be releasing her very own line of Holographic Skincare! Launching early 2018, Paris Hilton Skincare is coming out with their first product. The Paris Hilton Limited Unicorn Mist ($29) is the ultimate pamper product, infused with ingredients like pure rose extract, aloe vera juice, and marshmallow plant to soothe, calm, and nourish the skin. The mist is available for pre-order here. It's limited edition so if you're ready to break out of the simple life, better get yourself a bottle soon!
