Beauty Roundup: Vice x Jelly Vol. 2, Blk Airy Matte Lip Primer & Topper, New Strokes Kiss Sculpt Shades, and Sephora.ph Ready, Set, Sale

They say sometimes, things taste sweeter the second time around. When it comes to beloved makeup releases and beauty sales, that definitely is true! This week’s Beauty News Roundup is all about comebacks, shade extensions, and a sale you wouldn’t want to miss. Vice Cosmetics teams up once again with celebrity makeup artist Jelly Eugenio for a new makeup collection. Blk Cosmetics debuts their Airy Matte Lip Primer & Topper, plus new shades for their beloved Airy Matte Tint. Strokes Beauty Lab restocks their Kiss Sculpt Lip Liners, and gives us new shades to love as well. Last but definitely not the least, Sephora.ph is once again on sale with an adorable freebie and unbelievable discounts.

VXJELLY2

The much-awaited second tranche of Vice Cosmetics’ collaboration with Jelly Eugenio is upon us! I spy with my little eye, a full face makeup palette, a brush set, and new additions to the brand’s best-selling Duettes and Dew It All multi-use tints.

A pretty rose, cherry, and pink look in a palette–is pretty much what the VXJelly2 Pretty Fresh Filter Palette (P995) is. Everything you need for a fresh rose-tinged cherry look is here: a fresh mochi blush, rose lip creme, dark cherry lip balm, jelly highlighter, pink setting powder, matte eyeshadow, sparkly eye topper, and a fresh pressed blush. Pack this with your brow product, eyeliner, and mascara of choice, and you’re all set for endlessly fresh looks!

The VXJelly2 Duettes are definitely something. The Blush Duettes have one cream and one powder blush shade in pre-curated blush color combos. Watch out for the new Shade Edit Brontour Duette and Light Edit Powder Duette.

There are also two new limited-edition shades for the beloved Dew It All Liquid Blush multi-use tint. These are Always Radiant (nude mauve) and Always Pretty (baby pink). The only adjectives that come to mind are pretty and fresh!

Also included in the collection is Jelly’s Faves Brush Set, which looks to be a great option for makeup lovers of any skill level. The whole collection launches officially on October 17th, 7PM with a TikTok Live event with none other than @jellyeugenio.

Blk Airy Matte Lip Primer & Topper + New Airy Matte Tint Shades

The Blk Airy Matte Tints (P399) are back, and better, with five new shades to try and love. This time, they brought a new friend: The Airy Matte Lip Primer & Topper (P399), an innovative formula that can be used to prep AND top your lips with gloss!

When used as a primer, the Airy Matte Lip Primer & Topper blurs fine lines and locks in moisture. When applied on top of the Airy Matte Tint, it adds a mirror-like shine. This way, you can achieve different finishes depending on the look you want for the day. Powered by SoftSeal Technology that visibly smoothens lips, the non-sticky formula leaves a refreshingly cooling sensation upon application.

The five (5) new Airy Matte Tint shades are: It-Girl (burnt red), Tease (deep red), Keeper (warm nude), Baby (mauve pink), and Statement (wine red). The colors might be new, but it’s the same beloved formula with soft-focus color and weightless long wear.

New Strokes Beauty Lab Kiss Sculpt Lip Liner Shades

We heard pretty good feedback about the Strokes Beauty Lab Kiss Sculpt Lip Liners (P398). With a creamy, glide-on formula that gives 12-hour budge-proof wear with a soft matte finish, it definitely is a great local lip liner option. It even has a built-in sharpener to keep the tip fresh and precise! The people wanted more nude shade options, and our requests have been heard.

Step up your nude lip look with the new Strokes Kiss Sculpt Shades: Nude Buff (hazel tan), Mocha Edge (caramel brown), and Cocoa Noir (chocolate nude). The previously released shades have been restocked, as well. Check them out in-store at Opus Mall, Vertis North, One Ayala, or EDSA Shangri-La; or online via Shopee, Lazada, and Zalora.
