I was feeling a bit bored of my eyeshadow options lately, so I decided to buy the Dior Backstage Eye Palette in 003 Amber Neutrals (P3,550) from the Dior store in The Podium. I do have a few eyeshadow palettes in this warm-reddish-bronzy color story, yes, so it’s not really “new” in my collection. So, oops, I guess? It’s Dior though!

How are you all doing, PV Community? Sorry if I’ve been MIA for the past few weeks. I’ve missed you all. There will be quite some catching up to do. After all, there’s always something new to discover in the world of beauty. Don’t you just love that?

I learned a lot about La Collection Privée when I visited the Dior Flagship Boutique last month. I knew about Dior’s makeup line and fragrances - tried quite a few of them, loved everything so far - but I didn’t know that they have a couture beauty line. This one is more for serious beauty fans and collectors. They gifted me with a couple of items from the line (lucky me) so of course I had to share my thoughts!

You know the popular saying, spend money on experiences and not things? Dior’s Flagship Boutique in the Philippines challenges that adage. Their new space in Greenbelt 5 spanning 165 square meters is all about giving you the full experience of being part of the Dior universe. I’ve been to a few beauty stores but I am stunned by how much detail and love the Dior team put in creating this store.

It’s the month of love, PV Community, and I wish you a February filled with just that. I hope you get to celebrate love, regardless of its form and kind, more than ever this month. Speaking of celebrating love, let’s talk about what’s new in beauty - one thing I know we all love.

Hello, PV Community! Since it’s the month of January, let’s quickly talk about what’s something new you’d want to do or try this year - beauty-related, of course. For me, it’s false lashes! What’s yours? Sound off in the comments!

I’ve always been curious about Dior makeup but I’ve never tried any of their products - until recently, when they invited me to explore their newly opened boutique in Mall of Asia. This is right in between the two escalators in the Main Atrium so you can’t miss it! The space is much larger than their old one on the second floor; it’s also more inviting, with a spacious area on the side so you can get immersed in the Dior experience.

Falalalalala fabulous! ‘Tis the season for sparkly shadows, vibrant red lips, and winter-kissed cheeks, PV fam! With just a few more days until Christmas, the beauty world is turning even busiest Grinch into one happy elf. Get ready for KVD Beauty’s Lolita expansion, an epic beauty calendar from BLK (it’s never too late to gift a bunch of makeup!), and something new from local brand Beauty Bakery. Pour yourself some hot cocoa and let’s get festive!
