There's a joy that comes from discovering new products to add to your beauty kit. From a new lipstick that totally flatters your skin tone, a fragrance that is able to represent the mood you're in for the season, to an eyeliner that makes your eyes look extra special. We beauty girls are always on the lookout for the next best thing, so we rounded up our new batch of new must-try makeup and skincare picks so you, too can start adding to cart. Enjoy!
Face Republic Purity Sun Essence
This year, we're taking sun protection to the next level and stocking up even more during the rainy season! This K-beauty brand offers the Purity Sun Essence, a lightweight formula for Korean beauty junkies out there. It boasts of SPF 50, and has a hydrating and cooling feature Filipina skin will love. And of course, it has no white cast!
Saturday Skin Yuzu Vit. C Sleep Mask & Take Control 3-Pc Perfect Travel Companion
Another K-beauty brand on our radar is Saturday Skin, which is exclusively available at Adora. The South Korean brand boasts of being 'a weekend in a bottle', meaning your skin will feel rested and relaxed, just how we too are during weekends! We tried the Yuzu Vit. C Sleep Mask, which is a great final step for your evening routine. It has a jelly-like texture that glides on easily, and Yuzu, which contains three times more Vit. C than other citrus! Use it as a mask overnight to wake up to visibly brighter, nourished skin!
Another pick we loved is the Take Control 3-Pc Perfect Travel Companion which consists of a Pore Clarifying Toner, Waterfall Glacier Water Cream, and Wide Awake Brightening Eye Cream! It's a great add-on to your luggage, or a starter pack if you're not sure what to get yet. It provides a complete kit for clear, balanced, and brighter looking skin minus the fuss!
The favorite serum got a makeover with its brand new sleek glass bottle and formula that's made even better! It still promises to help improve skin hydration, elasticity, and maximizes the Avon-exclusive Protinol™ technology that restores years of collagen loss, strengthens the skin, and gives it a covetable baby-like bounce!
Who can ever have enough blush? Not us! When the Dior Rosy Glow Blush dropped, we sat up and paid attention, for we knew we were in for a treat! Reinvented in 2023 by Peter Philips, the iconic Rosy Glow Blush gets a new formula and new shades to suit different skin tones, from lightest to darkest. Two new shades include 012 Rosewood, a delicate pink, and 015 Cherry, a timeless red. The formula is now infused with Eosin, which reacts to the pH and humidity levels of skin to enhance the wearer's natural glow. Available locally at Dior Beauty Boutiques.
Give your eyes the pop it needs, with Vice Cosmetics' two new mascara picks! The first variant gives your lashes show-stopping drama-lift with a waterproof finish. It's high density, extra volumizing, and stays on up to 24 hours or even longer! The other variant is a curl and length formula that's also volumizing, but gives extra curl for natural lashes. It's also longwearing and water-resistant for all day affairs!
Taking care of our eye area is an absolute must, and Drunk Elephant knows it! Their newest product features 0.1% retinol and 3% caffeine for wide-awake eyes and visibly less fine lines, wrinkles, and puffiness. Rested and youthful eyes are what we all desire, so diligent application of the product both day and night (yes, even mornings) is key! Just don't forget to use SPF to protect those peepers!
Not a fan of retinol? Human Nature offers an alternative and equally effective ingredient Bakuchiol, a natural retinol alternative minus the irritation. It's a plant-based ingredient that is known to be a natural and gentle alternative for those who have retinol sensitivity. It's been used in both traditional Chinese and Indian Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. It also promises to improve skin firmness and elasticity, boost collagen production, prevent or reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and lighten dark spots! This is now found in Human Nature's bestselling Sunflower Beauty Oil, doubling its powers! At P299.75, you've got a winner!
Having sensitive skin manifests itself more than just through breakouts. You could be experiencing redness, allergic dermatitis, rosacea, eczema, and even thinning of the skin! These could be caused by overuse of actives or acids, constant exposure to pollutants or irritants, and even stress. Meet your new BFF when it comes to helping sensitive skin cope: The Oxecure Ultra Gentle Facial Cleanser. It's formulated with five different ceramides to maintain the barrier and moisture balance. Containing 3D Bio Micro Release Technology, Oxecure’s new cleanser is packed with moisturizingcomponents to refresh your skin and provide long-lasting hydration. This cleanser is also dermatologically-tested, fragrance-free, alcohol-free, and paraben-free, so youdon’t have to worry about any harsh effects it may have on your sensitive skin. In fact, the Ultra GentleFacial Cleanser is also made with Bakuchiol Extract to help improve your skin’s texture while nourishingit.
