Beauty Roundup: More Colourette Colourtints, a new MAC mascara, the Make Up For Ever HD Skin Foundation, and multi-use pigments from The Body Shop!

And just like that, it’s the month of November, PV Community! As we slowly usher in the holiday season, expect beauty releases to still be on full speed ahead. After all, a lot can happen in a week, as evidenced by these new drops in beauty!

More tints

If you love the multi-use Colourette Colourtints (P399), then you’re in luck - there are nine new shades! Coming in the fresh variant, which is sheer and natural in finish, the new shades make up the brand’s Tint Outside the Box message of fitting in and finding one’s self. The shades are Kaiya (dolly pink), Winter (flamingo pink), Cherry (tomato red), Meg (muted pomegranate), Naomi (true rose blush), Bonnie (easy everyday mauve), Sage (baby pink flush), Willow (stone taupe), and Cola (neutral caramel)! My Swiftie heart is thrilled over Willow!

More lashes

There’s a new mascara from MAC and it’s the MAC Stack Mascara (P1,850)! Made with a continuously buildable, and clump-resistant formula, this mascara lets you stack on the volume and length. It also features the Superstack Mega Brush, which takes your lashes to the next level. The Haute and Naughty Mascara is one of my all-time favorites, so I’m excited to try this!

More skin

Make Up For Ever recently dropped a new foundation - the HD Skin Foundation (P2,450). This buildable, undetectable liquid foundation blurs and covers skin’s imperfections for up to 24 hours. In addition, it’s powered by a micro-skin system that syncs with the skin for a true-to-skin finish. Finally, available in 40 shades, this foundation is waterproof, sweat-proof, smudge-proof and mask-friendly! P.S. I love the bottle so much, especially the cap!

More versatility

The Body Shop just launched the Freestyle Multi-tasking Colours (P995), which are multi-use pigments for the lips, cheeks, and eyes. Made with 90% natural origin ingredients, these pigments are also housed in recyclable aluminum and plastic - always a plus with this brand. The four shades - Flow, Parade, Real and Equal - have been tested on a diverse panel of six Fitzpatrick scale tones across 200 people to ensure as much inclusivity as possible. What a win!

Okay, that’s it for this week. See you next time!
