Beauty Roundup: A local beauty collaboration, a new releases from Origins and YSL Beauty, and Glossier You Solid is back!

Hi there, PV Community! Just to share, I’m writing this at 3 in the morning while wearing the Pat McGrath MatteTrance Lipstick in Elson 2. Whenever I need an extra push to work, I always summon the help of a red lipstick. How about you? What’s a quick beauty pick-me-up you can always rely on? Okay, time for this week’s beauty roundup!

Ganda meets glow 

Have you seen the collaboration between Vice Cosmetics and SNAILWHITE? These two beauty brands curated two sets - Gandang Glowin’ and Live Your Best Glow - that give the flawless glow and ganda. Each set costs P699 and includes a cleanser, toner, day cream, sunscreen CC cream, powder foundation, concealer, and highlighter. How much do you save with the set, you might ask? P910!

Eye cream, you cream 

Origins just released the new GinZing Eye Cream, which not only brightens the eye area by reducing dark circles and puffiness, but also helps protect your eye area from blue light damage caused by screens. Niacinamide and vitamin C combat dark circles, while ginseng and caffeine from coffee beans take care of dryness and dullness.

Solidifying You 

Finally, the Glossier You Solid perfume is back for good! Glossier just announced that the You fragrance in solid form is now part of their permanent collection. In addition, updates were made in the formula - it is now vegan - and the packaging - it is held in a more sustainable and refillable compact. Curious about the fragrance notes? Ambrox, ambrette, musk, iris root, and pink pepper.

Boom clash

YSL Beauty dropped a new mascara called Lash Clash. This mascara claims to give up to 200% more volume in just, pause for a moment, 5 strokes! With an innovative oil-in-water wax formula, the Lash Clash thickens lashes in an instant. I, for one, am craving for new mascaras, so I’m thrilled over this release. Hopefully we get more local mascaras this year! 

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