But First, Coffee x GRWM Cosmetics

Imagine going for your coffee run and seeing lip kits for sale with your next sugar rush. You can do that for real now, with the But First, Coffee x GRWM Cosmetics collaboration! But First, Coffee celebrates its fifth anniversary with new drink selections and a sweet collaboration with GRWM Cosmetics. You can choose to enjoy the new But First, Coffee drinks in a limited-edition oversized Greater Cup for P199 each, but why stop there?

Hello Glow Ultralight ++ Matte Sunscreen SPF50

Looking for a matte sunscreen you can bring on the go? Meet Hello Glow Ultralight ++ Matte Sunscreen SPF50 (P350, 50g). This non-greasy, lightweight gel sunscreen comes in a spill-proof pouch with cap for easy storage.

It provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 PA+++ protection. It also helps blur pores and control oil.  Wear it alone or under makeup because the gel formula feels light on the skin and gives a matte finish.

It is also packed with skin-caring ingredients to improve the skin over time. Soothing Centella Asiatica (Cica) Extract and three types of Ceramides moisturize and calm the skin. Your skin will also benefit from antioxidants and the brightening properties of Hexylresorcinol and Niacinamide.

Catch the Hello Glow Ultralight ++ Matte Sunscreen SPF 50 PA+++ at Watsons, SM Beauty, and other leading department stores and supermarkets nationwide. You can also shop online with Hello Glow official Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shops.

Blk Eye Stacks

When you think of an eyeshadow palette, you would normally envision round or square pans in a bulky rectangular case with a mirror. Well, the new Blk Eye Stacks (full P599, refill P399) look nothing like that!

Each full palette comes with a curated trio of eyeshadow shades, paired with a sleek lid with built-in mirror that snaps in place. Choose from other refills or full palettes to build your own color stories. Mix, match, and snap in place to your heart’s content!

The brand recommends selecting a Full Set (P599) and adding Refills (P399) as needed. There are six (6) options for the Full Set: Desert Suede, Earthen Glow, Blush Blooms, Ballet Pink, Main Character, and Show Stopper. There are likewise six (6) Refill options: Nude Haze, Soft Rosé, Celestial Violets, Ethereal Haze, Stardust Pixie, and Drama Queen.

Also available are pre-selected Eye Stacks Sets (P899) which include a Full Set and a Refill. Choose from four sets: After Hours, Hooded Eye Edit, Morning Rush, and Morena Glow. For now, the new Blk Eye Stacks are exclusively available at the official Blk Cosmetics Shopee Store. I hope they will be available in physical stores soon! I could already see a major swatch fest happening then.

Careline Cosmetics Liquid Chisel Contour

Step up your makeup game with a liquid contour that glides on seamlessly and blends like a dream, adding natural definition to your look. Careline Liquid Chisel Contour (P325) is infused with Shea Butter and Glycerin, moisturizing and improving your skin while creating natural contours with buildable shade.

There are two (2) shades available: Clay (cool grey-brown) and Pecan (warm medium-brown). Careline Liquid Chisel Contour is now available in-stores and online.
