Happy Friday, everyone! Are you looking forward to a little breather this weekend? Remember, it’s important to rest and tinker around with your passions during your well-deserved break. Here’s what to look forward to in beauty!

Time for another beauty roundup! I know, I know. It’s Friday again. Time truly flies, right? For this week’s beauty roundup, we’re talking about the Maybelline Brooklyn Blush Collection, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Magic Touch Concealer, and the ColourPop Astrology Eyeshadow Quads!

Hi, everyone! Happy Friday! I can’t believe how fast this week flew by. How was your week? I hope it was an exciting one. Speaking of exciting, it’s time for another beauty roundup! For this week, we’re talking about MAC’s Botanic Panic Collection, Make Up For Ever’s Aqua Resist Brows, La Mer on Lazada, and Pat McGrath’s Mothership IX: Huetopian Dream Palette!

If being in the midst of a global pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that trying to take on healthy habits should be a conscious year-round practice rather than a half-hearted New Year’s resolution. It also means learning to be more in-tune with our bodies’ needs and selecting the right tools to help our wellness journey along. Bonus beauty benefit: A healthy system can translate to a glow that shows on the outside!

Okay, I know we’re not really in a TGIF mood because it’s the first day of ECQ again today. However, I have something that might cheer you up or at least be a good distraction - it’s time for another beauty roundup! This week, we’re talking about Pili Ani’s Self-care Night Recovery Oil, Laura Mercier’s Tinted Moisturizer Oil Free, and Fenty’s Eau de Parfum!

One of the things that got me really excited over coming back to the Philippines is access to our local beauty brands. It’s quite exciting to see how as a consumer, we now have so many choices! From brands, shade options, and even skincare products addressing highly specific concerns, we have it all here. I’m rounding up the local beauty brands that I’ve been loving so far!

Belated National Lipstick Day! What lipstick did you wear yesterday? I wore the NARS Audacious Lipstick in Audrey. Anyway, it’s Friday again, which means it is time for another beauty roundup. This week, we’re talking about new releases from Detail Cosmetics, Em Cosmetics, and Jeffree Star Cosmetics, and the new creative director of Guerlain!

Since many of us are cautious about going out these days, physical shopping trips tend to be planned more carefully than during the pre-pandemic era. But that doesn't mean discarding your beauty routine and limiting yourself to grocery supply runs. One way of still being able to stock up on your kikay caboodle is by visiting a one-stop shop that offers choice products from all over the world. It's time to stop, LOOK, and shop!

Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you’re all staying safe and dry. Just like the rain, news in the beauty world has been pouring here and there. For this week’s beauty roundup, we’re going to talk about blk’s Daydream Collection, In Her Element’s The Rose Radiant Duo, Vice Cosmetics’ Makeup Content Creator Competition, the NARS Orgasm on the Beach Collection, Make Up For Ever’s new Ultra HD Setting Powder, and Glossier’s Solar Paints!

Can you believe that another week has passed? Yes, it’s Friday again and you know what that means - it’s time for another beauty roundup! For this week, it’s all about Happy Skin’s Second Skin line, Shiseido’s new Ultimune, Maybelline’s new Fit Me Powder Powder Foundation, customizable eyeshadows from Hourglass, and a KKW Beauty rebrand!

It’s no secret that Innisfree’s Green Tea skincare line is one of the brand’s most popular and enduring collections. Versatile and moisturizing Jeju Green Tea has been a fan favorite since its launch back in 2008, and the creme de la creme has always been the Green Tea Seed Serum for its potent balancing and hydrating properties.

Something you probably already know: Mae Layug is a famous local YouTuber who has over half a million followers. She films mostly beauty reviews, but also covers health, shopping hauls, and snippets from her personal life.

The blk Sunkissed Collection is inspired by the different shades of the sunset, mostly warm colors that will give you a "post-vacation glow, minus the sunburn." From this new collection, I was drawn towards the new shades of the Creamy All-Over Paints since I had a good impression with the Glow shade included in the Blk Bridal Collection. These new releases are marketed as mask-proof and multi-use for the face, eyes, and lips so here's how they fared IRL.

It’s hard not to think of Cruella De Vil when the subject of female villains comes up, more so when it’s specifically about their beauty. Her look - black-and-white hair paired with a red lip - is an iconic one. This is why when Disney announced their live-action film Cruella, it’s no surprise that MAC Cosmetics collaborated with them to celebrate the rebellious, edgy, and glamorous villain.

When I first heard of retinol, I was struggling with major bouts of adult acne that wrinkles and pre-mature signs of aging were the farthest thing from my mind. Even as I was pushing 30, I was fixated on my hormonal imbalance and how I can make my skin smooth and problem-free again. What got me to finally take the plunge and try out this ingredient was an article I found online that said it can also help me when it comes to my breakouts.

One of my favorite Project Vanity beauty discoveries is using a low pH cleanser. I love how my skin feels fresh and clean sans the stripped-off feeling. It also helps keep my dry skin from getting more dehydrated due to the pH-balanced formulation that’s just right for our face. There are plenty of benefits to using one and the beauty community is all for it, so we found ten local low pH cleansers to try this 2021!

Taking inspiration from cherry blossoms, MAC’s Spring 2021 offering is the Black Cherry Collection. Perfectly capturing the spirit of spring, cherry blossoms are no stranger to MAC’s limited edition collections. The collection contains a spectrum of products for the eyes, lips, and skin. For this review, I was able to try and test the Extra Dimension Blushes, Glow Play Lip Balms, and Matte Lipsticks. Here are my thoughts!

“She prepared for a summer vacation that didn’t come.” Sounds familiar, right? It’s a common 2020 tale. I’m sure that, even just within the beauty community, there were many kikay plans (trends to cop, bright and shiny purchases, and scheduled services, etc.) that had to be postponed when we all had to stay at home.

Not all formulations are created equal. It’s also rather easy to get sucked into skincare ingredient lists and get impressed with high-percentages of certain actives. Paula’s Choice Niacinamide 20% Treatment has been hailed for its high concentration of this crowd-favorite – but is it really more effective?
