This beauty, more than any other product in the Fenty Beauty line, won Rihanna acclaim for being inclusive of all skin types. It comes in a record-breaking 40 shades, from light to dark, and dries into a matte finish.
Apart from its high star rating on Sephora PH, it also rated 4.44 stars out of 5 on the review site influenster.com for lightweight feel, accurate color match, and full coverage.

The Veil Mineral Primer may have been listed among Philippine Tatler’s list of Sweat-Proof Beauty Picks for Summer, but it’s always good to have a reliable waterproof primer in stock for especially humidity and warm days.
It fills in fine lines and pores, smoothes skin, and prepares skin for makeup – but with additional sun protection and longer wear. Just ask Kaleigh Fasanella of allure.com, who wrote a full review of the product on the site.

Remember that viral article of the RN who got into a car accident but still emerged with flawless liner? This is it. That’s all the proof you need that this eyeliner is a keeper.
It comes with a brush tip, which makes application easier but may require some practice to produce that smooth wing line.

Jessica Teich of USA Today pitted this mascara against Too Faced’s famous Better Than Sexmascara, and it’s the clear winner in terms of pigmentation, lash lengthening, and staying power.

If you’ve wanted to try gel eyeliner but lack the skill and time to use an eyeliner brush, this is definitely for you! This gel eyeliner comes in crayon form, so you can use it on your way out the door like you would any other pencil or liquid eyeliner.
It’s waterproof, sets after 15-30 seconds and doesn’t budge, and comes in 20 colorful shades (including the famous silvery-lilac (Luna)tic). It even contains vitamin E and rosehip seed oil that nourish your lids the longer you wear it!

Lip glosses are officially back in vogue, so it’s time to channel your younger self and opt for a glimmery, colorful pout!

Sephora Collection, P779
4 / 5 ★
With the amount of rave this product gets online, it’s almost shocking it only rates four stars on Sephora PH. Beauty junkies everywhere love its matte finish, a creamy avocado oil-infused formula, its “doe-foot” wand that ensures equal application all over your lips, and most importantly its incredible staying power. POPSUGAR Beauty even called it “The 1 Liquid Lipstick That Lasts Through Burgers, Makeouts, and Beyond”.
87 of its 96 shades are available on Sephora.ph, ranging from a cotton candy lover’s dream to cool, wearable nudes. Consider 2018, the year you wear colors you haven’t tried before!
Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer 9ml
Fenty Beauty, P1,200
4.5 / 5 ★
“I want everyone to feel included.” Inclusivity has always been the goal for Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty line, and she expresses it in a unique way with this lip gloss. Unlike her extensive 40-shade foundation line, Rihanna wanted to find the just one gloss shade that would suit women of all skin tones – and succeeded.
The Gloss Bomb has a rose-and-gold combination that’s meant to look sexy and put-together without being overdone, with a versatile “doe-foot” applicator and a peach-and-vanilla scent that lingers for hours.
POPSUGAR Beauty even tested this gloss out on staff members with different skin tones to test out its “universality”- see the hype for yourself.
◆ Because #kilayislife, even in 2018 ◆
Anastasia Beverly Hills, P1,2554.5 / 5 ★
Women from around the world swear by this product as a do-it-all that lasts for hours.
Applying the pomade with the complimentary angled brush and spoolie may take some practice if you’re used to brow pencils, but the results are well worth it. You’ll get home from your daily commute with your brows looking as on fleek as the moment you applied them!
Benefit Cosmetics, P1,500

If you favor a more natural-looking brow over the over-sculpted IG variety, reach for this much-lauded eyebrow gel instead of a brow pencil. It’s essentially a tinted gel “mascara” that you brush onto your brows, and is designed to keep the hairs in place, fill in empty patches, and provide born-this-way volume.
Allure recommends this product for a “beautiful, believable brow”, so put this on the list for your next no-makeup look!
Benefit Cosmetics, P1,500
4 / 5 ★
Makeup newbies, this is the beginner brow product you’ve been looking for. It has a thin, teardrop-shaped tip and a waterproof, pigmented formula that defines, shapes, and fills inyour brows for “goof proof” application every time.
With a bit of practice in front of a mirror, you’ll be on your way to your dream “on fleek” brow look!

Finally, a non-painful way to get rid of waterproof mascara and lip stains! Just dab it on a cotton pad, apply light pressure, and watch your makeup slide off. It may not achieve Mulan’s godlike one-swipe removal technique, but it definitely gets the job done.
This all-around makeup remover was found 82% free of allergens by Skin Safe, so it’s pretty gentle on all skin types, too!
PIXI by Petra, P1,628
4.5 / 5 ★
This magical mixture is a blend of sweet almond, rosehip, jojoba, pomegranate seed and rosehip essential oils that moisturizes skin deep down and provides a calming scent that’s perfect for your night-time routine. The final result is the glowy, lit-from-within look that K-Dramas made so popular.
It works for all skin types (even acne-prone skin!) but is most suited for dry skin. If you’re new to the world of serums, this is definitely a good place to start.
First Aid Beauty, P1,926
4.5 / 5 ★
If you’ve been searching for a good face-and-body moisturizer, look no further. First Aid Beauty has always been known for products that soothe common skin irritations or are suitable for sensitive skin types, but they’ve outdone themselves with this “healing” moisturizer.
It’s got colloidal oatmeal, which calms and relieves itching, as well as eucalyptus extracts for that fresh, just-bathed scent. Because of its formulation, it can be soothed over nearly every kind of skin irritation, especially the body eczema and rashes that are so widespread because of the summer heat and sweat buildup.
Allure even recommends it as a spot treat for especially inflamed areas – after making sure you’re not allergic to anything in it, of course.
These finds will have you covered from prep to finish for the beauty overhaul you never knew you needed. Happy shopping!
