Beauty Roundup: GRWM x Pawssion Project, Plus New Drops from Happy Skin, Ready Set Glow, and Maybelline

As we wrap up the month of February, let’s do a quick roundup of new locally available finds. First up, Mae Layug’s GRWM partners with Pawssion Project to raise awareness and funds for our furry friends. Happy Skin treats us to new and old faves with their Lip Mallows in two formulas. Get killer makeup looks with Ready Set Glow and their new powder compact. Maybelline Philippines plays it up with new vibrant pink lip tints and colorful eye liners. Ready? Let’s go!

GRWM’s animal welfare advocacy

Seeing this billboard, I thought it was a noble move for GRWM Cosmetics to promote awareness for the animal welfare nonprofit Pawssion Project. I didn’t know that you can sponsor a rescue dog until they get adopted for only P1,000 monthly. Aside from this, they are also raising funds with their cult-fave Milk Tint exclusively online.

All proceeds from online sales (via Shopee and Lazada) of GRWM X Pawssion Multiuse Creamy Tint in Pomelo (P379) will be donated to animal welfare organizations, primarily for The Pawssion Project’s site development and supplies. Pomelo is described as a nude coral with a neutral undertone. It’s one of the brand’s bestsellers since it looks good on many skin tones!

I love that I could support an animal welfare nonprofit while I get my pretty on! You may also lend your support by reaching out to info@pawssionproject.org.

Welcome to Happy Skin’s Lip Mallow Cafe

Happy Skin has sold over 600,000 Lip Mallows! To celebrate, they restocked cult-fave shades and added five new delicious shades, available in two different formulas. So, are you #TeamMousse or #TeamTint?

Fans of Happy Skin Lip Mallow Mousse (P599), rejoice! The brand has brought back fan fave shades in Honeymoon Glow (pink rose), Cinnamon (Rosy Brown), Chai Latte (mauve brown), Iced Coffee (warm brown), and Fresh Brew (milky brown). The Lip Mallow Mousse gives one-swipe pigment with a velvety finish, without sacrificing comfort. It’s infused with marshmallow extract and coffee arabica seed oil!

Lip tint lovers are in for a delicious treat with Happy Skin Lip Mallow Tint (P599). Meet their new delicious shades: Soufflé (mellow pink), Bonbon (mauve pink), Macaron (natural nude), Eclair (pink brown), and Hazelnut (mocha brown). The Lip Mallow Tint is for those who prefer buildable, long-lasting color with a soft matte finish.

I know, it’s so difficult to choose! Good thing they have an ongoing promo online via Shopee and Lazada: get a free cloud pouch for every purchase of any three Lip Mallow lippies (until stocks last).

Killer looks made easy with Ready Set Glow’s new product

Get glowing with Ready Set Glow Killer Cover-up Compact Powder (P595). Get that pore-blurring matte finish without drying up your skin with oil-controlling Kaolin and hydrating Tocopherol and Jojoba. It also has SPF30 sun protection to boot!

It’s available in six shades: Bare Beauty, Creamy Canvas, Nude Harmony, Sandstone Serenity, Honeyed Glow, and Latte Luxe. The brand recommends pairing it with their medium to full coverage Spot Assassin Concealer (P395) in complementary shades.

I think this has earned a spot on my local product must-try list! I do appreciate that a local brand has more than two shades of complexion powder, has skin-caring ingredients, and sun protection as well. That packaging makes a lot of sense too, with a mirror and a separate compartment for the included sponge.

Play up your color with Maybelline’s new additions

 Maybelline helps us get in touch with our more playful sides as they locally released five new Maybelline Superstay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipstick (P499) shades. Their Tattoo Liner Play (P299) is now available in five new colorful shades, too!

Released around Valentine’s Day exclusively on the Maybelline Tiktok Shop, five new pink shades were added to the Superstay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipstick (P499) wardrobe. Dubbed as “Yummy Glaze Tints,” these lippies have a shiny finish but are surprisingly transfer-proof. The new Superstay Vinyl Ink Pinks are Sultry (cool-toned pink), Rogue (warm-toned pink), Tenacious (muted pinkish brown), Upbeat (bubblegum pink), and Tempting (coral pink).

Aside from black, Maybelline’s liquid eyeliner Tattoo Liner Play (P299) is available in fun, bold colors. Make a fun statement with Switch (blue), Defend (white), Shake (Lilac), Ride (Teal), and Punch (Pink).
