Celebrate with some Champagne... Pop

It’s been two whole years since BECCA released their crazily coveted highlighter Champagne Pop for their collaboration with beauty guru Jaclyn Hill.

Born This Way

Thanks to the crazy weather and unbelievable humidity in this country, it’s no surprise that most women prefer a more matte and polished look. We need that one product that we know will not only lock in our makeup, but will give us that flawless, gorgeously smooth and poreless finish right? Well, Too Faced has heard our prayers! They’ve come out with the Born This Way Ethereal Setting Powder - the latest baby to join the Born This Way family.

This is a first for the brand as their Peaches Loose Powder has yet to be released - making this a new venture for Too Faced. Promising to be a silky, lightweight powder that leaves a natural finish, we know that this is going to sell out fast! Available exclusively on the Too Faced website, the Born This Way Ethereal Setting Powder will released on June 15.

Belo Body Beautiful!

Tons of our favorite local celebrities are self-confessed “Belo Babies.” With most of them frequenting the beauty clinic for treatments and lending their faces for the skincare and makeup lines, it’s no wonder that the cosmetics branch, Belo Essentials is coming out with newer, more “innovative” products. Cut to a video that has gone wildly viral since its release earlier this month. Aside from the fierce dance moves, we couldn’t help but notice that this product is something we haven’t seen before - a BB Cream, for the body!

The Belo Intensive Whitening BB Body Cream (P399) promises to help you achieve you flawless legs and arms, simply by pressing down on a spray nozzle! With SPF 50 and infused with Kojic Acid and Tranexamic Acid, it also doubles up for long-term whitening and sun protection. Shop the body cream at your local drugstores and on Zalora.

Have a great weekend, ladies!
