Vice Cosmetics x Full Spectrum Masterclass Debuts The Endlezz Collection
As a professional makeup artist, I often find myself overwhelmed by the sheer number of base products and shades in the market. But with Vice Cosmetics’ new Endlezz Collection, the guesswork was taken out of the equation—making it easier than ever to create flawless looks for my clients. I recently attended the Vice Cosmetics x Full Spectrum Masterclass event, where I learned all about the a new skin-focused lineup designed to revolutionize the way we approach makeup in the Philippines and beyond.
As I explored the collection, I was struck by its thoughtful design and attention to detail. Each product was carefully crafted to address the unique challenges faced by makeup enthusiasts and professionals in our climate. From the Endlezz Cover Up Skincealer’s (Php 395 / 7.1 mL) hydrating yet long-wear formula to the Hyper Wear 24h Airbrush Powder Foundation's (Php 395 / 8 grams) oil-controlling properties, every item in the collection seemed tailor-made for the hot and humid weather of the Philippines.
But what truly impressed me was the collection's range of shades. With eight universal shades available in both the Skincealer and Airbrush Powder Foundation, Vice Cosmetics had managed to strike the perfect balance between inclusivity and simplicity.
Vice also released the 24HR Lock Setting Spray to help extend the wear time of these base products. Packed in an aerosol spray bottle, it delivers a super fine mist that prevents makeup from developing patchy areas.
The highlight of the event, however, was undoubtedly the masterclass led by top-tier makeup artists Jelly Eugenio, Anthea Bueno, and Mark Qua. Watching them work their magic with the products from the Endlezz Collection was nothing short of awe-inspiring. Each artist brought their own unique style and technique to the table, demonstrating the versatility and efficacy of the products in real-time.
One of the key takeaways from the masterclass was the importance of understanding your products and their capabilities. All three artists emphasized the concept of "less is more," showcasing how a simple application of the Cover Up Skincealer could achieve a flawless base with minimal effort. As Jelly Eugenio wisely pointed out, not all concealers are created equal, so it's essential to choose products that align with your desired look and skin type.
Mark Qua reiterated the importance of skincare in makeup application, emphasizing the need for a good base to achieve optimal results. He highlighted the fact that each skin is unique and requires tailored skincare solutions—a sentiment echoed by many in the beauty industry.
Perhaps the most eye-opening moment of the masterclass was witnessing Anthea Bueno's demonstration of a 2-minute bleached brow using only the Cover Up Skincealer. Her efficiency and creativity showcased the versatility of the product, proving that makeup artistry is as much about innovation as it is about technique.
As the event came to a close, I couldn't help but feel a swell of pride knowing that Vice Cosmetics was a Filipino brand at its core. In a market saturated with international beauty giants, it was refreshing to see a local brand making waves and representing our unique beauty aesthetic on a national scale.
Ultimately, the launch of the Endlezz Collection was more than just a celebration of beauty—it was a testament to the endless possibilities that lie ahead. With innovative products, top-tier talent, and a commitment to inclusivity, Vice Cosmetics is leading the charge towards a brighter, more beautiful future for all.
