So many things happened this week in the local beauty scene! Don’t you worry, we’re here to catch you up. First up, Allure Philippines has revealed their maiden issue, with Heart Evangelista and Bretman Rock on the cover. Happy Skin has chosen Maris Racal as the face of the new Lip Mallow lip tint shades. P-pop female alphas of G22 show us the beautiful shades of Maybelline’s latest launch, the Sunkisser Blush. In case you missed it, Liz wrote about two new local launches in April: the Spotlight Limitless Multicream and Hello Glow Vitamin C Duo.

Allure Philipppines Maiden Issue

Gracing the cover of Allure Philppines’ first ever issue are none other than Bretman Rock and Heart Evangelista! The international beauty magazine has gone the extra mile, featuring not one but two global Filipino beauty icons as the face of their maiden issue. Both headliners in their own right, they are featured in the article spread The Filipino Now.

Heart and Bretman will definitely hook you in, but the other features guarantee that you will devour the whole issue. The Morena Manual is an exclusive section that champions morena skin. Morena Icons like Iza Calzado, Tweetie De Leon-Gonzalez, Mylene Dizon, Wilma Doesnt, Bianca Gonzalez, and Agot Isidro are also featured. Take a peek at former Vice President Leni Robredo’s vanity table, and of course catch snippets of expert beauty tips specially written for Pinoys (and Pinays!).

Maris Racal for Happy Skin + new Lip Mallow Tint shades

Happy Skin is once again the talk of the town as they reveal their newest face: the talented Maris Racal. As the actress is “rewriting her story, one bold lip at a time,” their best-selling Lip Mallow Tints are getting a serious upgrade with five (5) new shades.

Fans of the velvety formula, rejoice! The new shades look to be lighter, barely-there tints perfect for any everyday look. Meet Minimalist, Salty, Roast, Twilight, and Gatekeep!

It’s not surprising that this lippie has sold over 1,000,000 units! Not only are the shade options beautiful on the lips, they also have lip-caring ingredients and SPF 15 protection.

G22 for Maybeliline Sunkisser Blush

I didn’t think it was possible, but Maybelline has just made their hot new drops even hotter. P-pop’s hottest female alphas G22 are the face of the new Maybelline Sunkisser Blush (P399)! Don’t let the name fool you: it’s definitely more than just a blush.

ICYMI, Spotlight Cosmetics launched their Limitless Multicream (P475) last month. Liz has written a short review with complete swatches.

Hello Glow Vitamin C Duo

The sun is in full force this summer! Brightening cleansers can definitely help keep your skin more even, and Hello Glow has two strong contenders. Liz has written about the benefits of incorporating Vitamin C in your skin care routine, and how this duo can definitely be good options.

The Hello Glow Vitamin C Serum Facial Gel Wash (P220, 120g) and Hello Glow Vitamin C Micellar Water (P155, 125mL) provide gentle yet effective cleansing for your skin. Its Triple VitaBright Complex utilizes three types of Vitamin C, helping to improve skin texture and appearance.
