THE NAKED LINE

A highlight of LUSH’s collection for Holiday 2017 is the Naked line that features its “bare-all” packaging approach, in which 80% of the seasonal range are offered in solid form without the use of plastic bottles or any packaging; thus, also called the naked alternative. Zero Waste christmas (6)Not using expensive packaging gives big savings that LUSH can invest into more team members and training. Products from the Naked line like body butters are formulated with little to no water and are therefore often innately self-preserving. This line aims to be a support for a better planet, too!Zero Waste christmas (13)Zero Waste christmas (4)LUSH Holiday 2017 Launch Post (14)

Bath Bombs

New bath bombs are in this season.

More options are in stores as LUSH also introduces The Snowman bubble bar with silky cocoa and Fair Traide shea butters for smooth and moisturized skin; or maybe test out the reusable ones like the Magic of Christmas made with cinnamon sticks and Fair Trade organic clove, and Magic Wand that creates clouds of pink, candy floss bubbles.

Shower Gels

Do away with packaging as LUSH brings you lip tints and lip scrubs from the naked line, that are sure to become your soon-to-be staples. The Sugar Plum Fairy Naked lip tint—also available in lip scrub—gives the super soft Christmas kisses with its Kalahari melon and organic jojoba oils, plus sweet wild orange oil to give you a happy lift. Sweep the Santa Baby lip scrub over your lips for a kissable pout as it’s packed with murumuru and illipe butter and accompanied by coconut and jojoba oils. You can also have this in lip tint.

 KNOT WRAPS FOR PRESENTS

With the approach of continuing to focus on packaging that goes for less and finds more use for recycled materials, LUSH is proud to introduce its much larger Knot Wrap collection. The wraps are made from recycled plastic bottles and organic cotton, and each of the reusable fabric comes in different sizes—great for wrapping all sorts of presents.

LUSH, in no doubt, helps shopping for the holidays easier. You can buy gift sets that will woo the person you’re giving it. Among others, they have Sweet Christmas (Candy Mountain bubble bar and Think Pink bath bomb), The Night Before Christmas (Shoot For The Starts bath bomb and Christmas Eve bubble bar), Rosy Christmas (Rose Jam naked shower gel, Rose Jam bubbleroon), Starry Night (Twilight sparkle jar and Twilight naked shower gel), and Christmas Bathtime Favourites (Golden Wonder bath bomb, Shoot for the Stars bath bomb, Never Mind the Ballistics bath bomb, Luxury Lush Pud Christmas Sweater bath bomb, Sherbet Dip bath bomb, Thundersnow bath bomb, and Butterbear bath bomb).

SMASHBOX GOES HIGH-IMPACT WITH NEW PALETTES AND LIPSTICKS

Shaking up the local beauty scene yet again, beauty juggernaut Smashbox Cosmetics introduces a fresh selection of head-turners to the Philippine market. Bringing no less than a curated assemblage of pigment-packed beauty essentials, Smashbox fulfills the wishes of beauty junkies and makeup hoarders by officially launching the Cover Shot Eye Palette, Spotlight Palette and Always On Matte Liquid Lipsticks.

THE COVER SHOT EYE PALETTE 

“Makeup artist in our L.A. Photo Studio live and die by our pigment-packed eye shadow shades. These seven palettes give you everything you need-including two oversized bases- to create your own cover-worthy looks at home.”- Lori Taylor-Davis, Smashbox Global Pro Lead Artist

THINK: Blow-your-mind eye shadows packed with powerful pigments and mesmerizing colors so you always land the cover shot

Taking inspiration from the of-the-moment trends that breeze through the doors of the iconic Smashbox Studios in Los Angeles, the Cover Shot Eye Palettes are equal parts diverse and hard-hitting. Each swipe packs a punch of heavy-duty color in a single swipe. Giving beauty aficionados all the elements needed to create unforgettable eye makeup looks, each pocket-sized palette houses six high-pigment colors and two base shades that blend like a charm.

Four variations of the go-anywhere beauty staple will be made available in the Philippines at a standard retail price of P1,500.00. Perhaps best described as fire in a palette, Ablaze contains incandescent reds and browns inspired by the sear and scorch of the desert. Golden Hour promises a soft inner glow reminiscent of the sun’s rising and setting, with a moody purple shimmer as an unexpected palate cleanser. Aptly named, the Matte palette delivers ultra-pigmented creamy shades that go from neutral to dramatic. A stark opposite, the Metallicpalette features golds, silvers and pearlescent colors, all topped off with a foil finish.

GET IT ON: Choose your base color and smooth onto your lids. Then layer, blend and mix-and-match shades to create your own exceptional cover look. Pair with shadow primer for a long-lasting look.Smash Box (2)
THE SPOTLIGHT PALETTE

 “Casey and I met on set while she was making videos at the Studio. Right away I knew we needed to collaborate- her knowledge of highlighting and how to use light to create a photo-fabulous face made her the perfect partner.”- Davis Factor, Founder and Celebrity Photographer

THINK: Your own lighting crew hiding in your bag

Fret not, ladies and gents, Smashbox’s Spotlight Palette is ridding us of our fears of stepping into bad lighting. This palette triple threat of a palette contains Blow a Fuse, Crank It Up and Turn It On––two shimmer finishes and one high shine shade to kick your glow up a notch. Available in Pearl, each highlight shade boasts of a glow-from-within effect that adds effortless dimension wherever applied. The Spotlight Palette, retailed at P1,800.00, was created in close collaboration with YouTube’s own highlighting guru, Casey Holmes. Delivering nothing less than the best, pro tips to getting three of Holmes’ beauty looks are included with the product.

GET IT ON: Wear each shade alone or layer together to build your ultimate glow. Can also be applied over blush or non-tour for added dimension.

STUDIO TIP: Brush onto your shoulders and décolletage for an extra shot of shine.Smash Box (3)

By | Beauty, SSI Group Inc | No Comments

 Heart2Heart is for all natural products. So happy to have a new brand from Taiwan  join the @beautybarphfamily!  23.5N @23.5nofficial  #beautybarx235n#BeautyBarPh #H2HSSI @ssilifeph #SSILife

Sitting 23.5ºN of the equator, the Tropic of Cancer marks the northernmost circle of the globe where direct sunlight kisses land and water. This intangible loop runs across deserts and tropical climates, with the exception of Southern China and Taiwan–– dubbed the Magical Green Belt of the Tropics––where greens and agriculture flourish.

Building off Taiwan’s reputation as an Ilha Formosa or beautiful island teeming with natural resources, cosmetics brand 23.5ºN brings farm to face with natural and nurturing skincare.

Simple and meticulous, the brand’s approach to beauty is rooted in a back-to-basics philosophy.

This no-frills ideology keeps the product formulations effective and easy on the skin. Free of fragrance, artificial coloring, alcohol, and parabens, 23.5ºN products are freshly extracted from Taiwan’s local plants grown without the aid of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Well-preserved from harvest to extraction, the plants and the active ingredients within them are kept fresh from start to finish

Striking an impeccable balance between oil and water-based ingredients, 23.5ºN is dedicated to nurturing Asian skin in a variety of climates, including the Phil ippines, hot and humid weather.

With high concentrations and refreshing effects on the skin, 23.5ºN proves that women need not choose between proves that when it comes to skincare, women need not choose between efficacy and comfort when it comes to skincare

Providing an answer to common skincare woes, 23.5ºN offers diverse product lines sourced from a variety of carefully selected, natural ingredients.
