At the launch of the latest collection of Smashbox!! 


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.
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.
THE ALWAYS ON MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK
“On Set, lip color needs to last for 6 hours, yet look as vibrant as if you’d just put it on. This breakthrough liquid formula does it all, hydrating lips while producing a wash of beautiful, velvety color with unprecedented staying power.” – Lori Taylor-Davis, Smashbox Global Pro Lead Artist
THINK: A lip-smoothing, 8-hour power pout that just won’t budge, on-set and off

Crafted with Advanced Polymer Technology, the Always On Matte Liquid Lipstick stays put and pigmented for up to eight hours while Primer Oil Complex keeps the lips hydrated and supple, even with the clock ticking.
