While I often shop for makeup at Sephora, I admittedly tend to skip over their in-house brand as they’ve always looked plain next to the other brands that they carry. Recently though, I’ve noticed that the Sephora Collection has been upping their game with new skincare releases that feature trendy ingredients housed in chic, minimalist packaging. If you’ve been curious to try their new line of cleansers, here are my thoughts after testing these products for two weeks.

It’s been an extra crazy week, and we hope you’re staying safe! Are you ready for a bit of good news? We’ve got the latest drops from Bobbi Brown, Dyson, and FENTY. Plus there’s a new sunscreen that’s sure bring out that summer glow, and a HUGE Sephora sale for some virtual retail therapy!

How was your Valentine’s weekend, PV fam? In case you aren’t feeling the love or aren’t too into this whole V-Day craze, this week’s beauty roundup is sure to get you kilig over the latest developments. We’ve got the latest scoop on NARS’ new fragrance drop (luxe doesn’t even begin to cover it) as well as their 10 new blushes that are sure to have you swooning! Our very own Maine Mendoza is doing a second act with MAC, and let’s take a peek at Jaclyn Hill’s newest (and hopefully fuzz-free) palette. Oh, and Bretman has an ode to the island that’s making us excited for summer!

What do a wing tip, a bunch of lipsticks, and a crazy eyeshadow palette have in common? This beauty roundup! We’re welcoming the month of November with some crazy launches that’ll have you seeing stars! We’ve got the latest on Glossier’s new makeup baby as well as to Maybelline’s newest lippie craze and Huda Beauty’s sold out palette.

Happy weekend, PV fam! It feels so good to be back into the swing of things, and with Halloween just around the corner, the festivities of the Ber months have truly started! This week’s beauty roundup has got the latest in Victoria Beckham’s newest baby (we’re talking makeup here, btw) as well as Shu Uemura’s limited edition Pokémon collection (got get ‘em all). Glossier is celebrating their 5th birthday with a special gift for us all, and Marc Jacob’s liquid eyeliner is just the treat we wanted.

I went a little mad for eyeshadows a few months ago, and one of the collateral damage during that time is the then newly-released Alyssa Edwards x Anastasia Eyeshadow Palette (P3,380 at Sephora.ph). This was exactly the kind of candy bright, has-zero-fucks-to-give palette that I was looking for! It’s my first ever Anastasia palette. I passed on their other ones because while I felt that I had them in some version in my other palettes, I have nothing like the Alyssa Edwards colors, period.

So, now that I’ve had this for some time, do I still think it’s worth the splurge?

Who’s ready for another beauty roundup?! This week is packed full of exciting news, both global and local! First up, we’ve got the scoop on Aesop making its way to the Philippines, plus a rare Michelle Phan upload and launch. We’ve also got a detailed look into Victoria Beckham Beauty (think smoky and chic) and the new drops from FENTY! Also, if you still struggle to get your wings even, stick-on eyeliners might be your new bff. Happy reading!

This week’s beauty roundup has me feeling like it’s my birthday, or that Christmas came early! Funko Pop collectors will have something new to add to their wish list, while the newest lipsticks from MAC are perfect for those who moisturizing but lightweight lip color. Of course, you don’t want to miss out on Sephora’s crazy Beauty Pass Sale and a peek at gorgeous new KKW Beauty collection that we’re lowkey eyeing.

My dear friends, the Sephora PH Beauty Pass Sale is upon us, and we must now gird our wallets for the battle of their lives! Okay, seriously, in case you missed it, Sephora PH is going on a sitewide sale from September 4. Gold and Black Members get 20% off, while White Members get 15% off. If you’re wondering what to get from the sale, here are my top 10 favorite Sephora finds that need a spot in your kit!

And that does it for ghost month, folks! Get ready to bust out those berry-toned lippies for the Ber months! Although we may not have a Fall season, this week’s roundup puts us in the right mood for cozying up in sweaters. From Natasha Denona’s step into the lipstick world to Chanel’s latest beauty breakthrough, this week is full of good vibes and fun times. We’ve also got FENTY’s shimmery subtle launch, so happy reading! 

Even when shopping online, people have different approaches. Some prefer to look at a brand category and check out what’s new from there, while others simply browse the featured products on the home page. The budget-conscious might head straight for the Sales tab, or simply check their carts to see if what they like is on promo.

Another month bites the dust, and with it comes the rise of fresh, hot beauty news. This week’s roundup has got the latest on Kylie Jenner (possibly) expanding her makeup empire to include nails and fragrances, Jaclyn Hill’s semi-return to the beauty world after her failed lippies, as well as Charlotte Tilbury’s latest sparkling beauties. And get ready to stay naked with Urban Decay’s latest drop!

It may have been a rainy week but the beauty world has been heating up! This week gives us a peek into Lady Gaga’s Haus Laboratories and at a hot new release from Charlotte Tilbury. Our girl Riri just dropped something new at FENTY, and we so wish it was part of the ongoing Sephora PH makeup sale! Beauty tech is also making advances with the launch of Pond’s AI skincare consultant.

And just like that half of the year is done! How crazy is that, PV fam? This week’s beauty roundup will make you look forward to the (near) future even more. The makeup world is turning into a magical one with so many new Disney-inspired collabs, while our wallets are shaking with the opening of an actual Sephora store in the Philippines (yes, really!). Meanwhile, Heart Evangelista is bringing her love for art and makeup together into an exciting new collab that actually has us looking forward to next Monday. Get ready to read up on princesses, the jungle, and an exclusive capsule collection!

Happy weekend, everyone! If you’re like us and still recovering from those insanely campy and absolutely glorious MET Gala looks, this week’s beauty roundup will help bring you that zen, back-to-reality beauty dose that you need. We’ve got the latest on a new skincare player to rival TO’s fuss-free formulations and Happy Skin’s latest high-tech creation! We’re also spilling the deets on Gucci’s return to the beauty world and something called a puppy dog highlighter?!

Today I want to talk about something new called the Sephora Collection Rouge Lacquer Lipstick (P745 at Sephora.ph). This line is all about shine, shine, shine! It looks like a lip lacquer but comes in a tube that has a buttery melt-on-your-lips texture. There are 20 shades available from demure to intense so there’s sure to be a color for you.

Let me do a quick rundown of the product!
