After a long day, whether from work or a night out, all we want is to rest and reset—and that includes our skin.

Thankfully, Human Nature's Radiant Grace Night Cream (P995, 30ml) and Overnight Elixir (P995) are two natural nighttime skincare powerhouses designed to help your skin do just that. Both products feature Bakuchiol, a plant-based retinol alternative that gently smooths fine lines, alongside other skin-loving actives, including Ceramides, Vitamin C, Squalane, and 9ActiveOils, for deep hydration and rejuvenation. These two work in harmony to restore, replenish, and renew your skin while you sleep.

Benetint Lip & Cheek Stain, P1,300, is an "IYKYK product" of Benefit Cosmetics. If you haven't heard yet, this iconic product was created in 1976 by founders Jean and Jane Ford, after an exotic dancer in San Francisco sought a way to enhance her nipples.

Today, this iconic, long-wearing, and smudge-proof tint, celebrated for its natural-looking sheer rose flush, is expanding its family. You can now enjoy the same buildable formula in two new shades: Raspberry and Dark Cherry, offering even more options for a naturally radiant look.

ISSY Scents

ISSY has officially ventured into the world of fragrance, launching its first-ever perfume collection with a distinct scent for every personality.

429 Scent of Possibility is a clean, green, and floral fragrance that aims to capture infinite potential with notes of bergamot, jasmine, and white musk. For those who prefer a bolder statement, 030 Scent of Intensity offers a dark and spicy aroma with black cherry, saffron, and leather. Finally, 551 Scent of Familiarity gives an understated yet present blend of green apple, ambroxan, and clean musk, perfect for a subtle everyday signature.

Each of these new scents is available for P1499.

Posh Skin Co. Pride Patches

Pimple patches revolutionized acne treatment, and now, they're also a canvas for self-expression, going beyond simple spots to become fun, personality-packed stickers. Posh Skin Co. is taking this a step further with their limited-edition Pride pimple patches, P199, allowing you to embrace your skin with pride.

These special patches are available while supplies last on Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop, the official Posh Skin Co. website, and at select Watsons stores nationwide.

Even better, a portion of the proceeds from every purchase will go to Safe Spaces PH, LoveYourself, Inc.'s initiative dedicated to HIV prevention and care.

Avon’s Perfect Nonsense Scents

For those who prefer their fragrances to be as unique as they are, shying away from mainstream perfumes, Avon has understood the assignment with its new Perfect Nonsense collection (P899 each).

This line directly addresses the desire for distinctiveness by pairing unlikely scent combinations, catering to the growing preference for unisex fragrances.

Peppery Peaches is hot pink peppercorn that meets juicy fruit, Choco Tuberose blends deep chocolate with airy tuberose. Meanwhile, Bamboozie Cocktail offers an intriguing mix of zesty juniper and earthy bamboo.

Avon Perfect Nonsense is now available through your Avon Representative, in-stores at Watsons, and SM Beauty, or online.

Barenbliss Peach Makes Perfect Lip Tint – Steel Edition

Lip jelly is always a fun and refreshing choice, appealing to everyone, not just the young and hip. Peach Makes Perfect – Steel Edition elevates this experience with its new Hugging Diamond Ice Applicator, a sleek steel tip that provides an instant cooling sensation and ensures mess-free, hygienic application.

This gloss-finish lip tint offers up to 24-hour staying power with a soft, buildable color that enhances your natural lips. Available in six dreamy, frosted shades—Icy Utopia, Cool Summer, Frozen Power, Ice Magic, Chill Vibe, and Frosty Breeze—and infused with nine nourishing ingredients, it keeps your lips conditioned and radiant through anything.

Rovectin

You know a brand is truly genuine when its origins are rooted in a heartfelt mission. That's precisely the story behind Rovectin, the Korean beauty brand now available in the Philippines via Beauty Bar.

The founder wanted to help his sister, who had severely damaged skin from chemotherapy. He developed gentle, effective formulas to tackle common side effects such as extreme dryness and weakened skin. This personal project soon became a trusted brand, recognized by patients, dermatologists, and hospitals across Korea for its focus on skin health.

Now, Rovectin offers seven specialized skincare lines to address different concerns: Aqua Line for deep hydration, the Calming Line for sensitive skin relief, the Cica Line for troubled skin and blemishes, the Intense Line for strengthening the skin barrier, the Vita Line for a bright, rejuvenated complexion, the Pore Care Line for smooth, refined skin texture, and the Anti-Irritant Line for restoring irritated and damaged skin.

Elizabeth Arden Visible Brightening Clearly Radiant Spot Correcting Capsules

Dark spots are one of the most common skin concerns we face, whether they're from sun exposure, acne marks, or even the natural aging process. While Vitamin C is well-known in fading these imperfections, there's an even more powerful solution that combines its brightening benefits with skin-strengthening ceramides.

Enter Elizabeth Arden's Visible Brightening Clearly Radiant Spot Correcting Capsules (P8,470 for 60 capsules and P4,800 for 30 capsules).

Each tiny capsule—which has enough product for your face and neck—delivers a potent dose of encapsulated Vitamin C alongside five other powerful skin brighteners. Plus, it features the latest Advanced MIX Technology, which targets the four key stages of skin pigmentation to tackle dark spots right at their source.

But what truly sets this serum apart is the addition of barrier-strengthening Phyto-Ceramides, which work to reinforce your skin's natural protective barrier, helping to improve overall texture and tone while visibly reducing redness.

New fragrances from Luxasia

Genderless scents have really taken off. It's a great way for everyone to choose fragrances based purely on what they love, rather than what's marketed to men or women, and four new Luxasia scents give just that.

Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Elixir Absolu is a bold reinvention of JPG's classic fragrance, bottled in a classy gold design that unmistakably evokes his iconic style, offering a sensual journey through spicy plum, reimagined lavender, and blazing tonka bean.

Rabanne's Phantom Elixir is the boldest fragrance in the Phantom lineup, blending freshness with warmth. It opens with a refreshing marine scent, followed by an intensely captivating mineral oud at its core. The fragrance finishes with a warm, irresistible vanilla bean. This makes it perfect for evening wear or special occasions when you want to make a lasting impression.

For those looking for a sexy scent that stands out, there's the Carolina Herrera Very Good Girl Elixir. It is a powerful and addictive scent, blending sensuous black cherry, bold red rose, and radiant vanilla. This amber, fruity, and floral fragrance comes in a posh, red-to-black gradient high-heeled bottle with shimmering gold accents, a perfect stylish addition to your vanity area.

And for those on the lookout for something light and fresh, Bvlgari's two new Eau Parfumée fragrances: Thé Vert and Thé Blanc. Thé Vert, which used to be a special gift for Bvlgari VIPs, is now available to everyone as a fresh Eau de Toilette. It now has 94% natural ingredients and features green tea extract. This scent is a vibrant blend of fizzy bergamot, crisp green tea leaves, and a luminous floral accord of neroli petals.

They've also reintroduced Thé Blanc as an Eau de Toilette with 89% natural ingredients, including a new white tea extract. This delicate fragrance combines fresh, petal-like white flowers and mellow fruity notes with a comforting white musk accord. These soft and delicate scents are ideal for everyday wear or when you desire a subtle and comforting aroma.
