Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion
Beauty brands come and go, but Cetaphil is a classic cult favorite that never goes out of trend.
If you're familiar with the holy grail must-have that is Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion, it is now improved and has been reformulated with new ingredients like glycerin (to help prevent dryness), niacinamide (to strengthen the skin barrier), and panthenol (to soothe and restore dry skin).
This mighty product not only rehydrates skin and maintains hydration for 48 hours, but also restores the skin barrier with complete recovery after one week. It is also clinically proven to fight the Five Signs of Skin Sensitivity: dryness, irritation, roughness, tightness, and weakened skin barrier.
Issy& Co. Creme Cheek Blush
If you liked their cream bronzers, then you’ll love Issy & Co.’s newest Crème Cheek Blush (P349 each). It has the same lightweight creamy texture and sheer to buildable coverage like the former, made with ingredients like Japanese Camellia Seed Oil and Meadowfoam Seed Oil. Not only does it melt easily into the skin, but it also gives you that lit-from-within flush!
The Crème Cheek Blush comes in 10 shades, ranging from dainty pinks to bold berries and glowy browns: Milkshake (cool tone pink), Stripped (warm biscuit tan), Criminal (sunkissed hot coral - with shimmer), Bang (radiant soft rose - with shimmer), Red Light (bold fiery red), Savage (smoked rosy mauve), Babygirl (true classic lilac), Safe Word (delicate peach pink), Karma (sultry rich berry) and Gold Digger (luminous gilded clay - with shimmer).
Kiehl’s Dermatologist Solutions
Skincare can be overwhelming, especially for first-timers. But the trick here is to know what you absolutely need and target those needs.
Luckily, Kiehl’s Dermatologist Solutions, a collection of powerful yet safe targeted treatments, is here. In the lineup is the best-selling Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution (P4,500, 50ml), which helps get rid of dark spots and achieve brighter skin. It has Activated C, Buffered Salicylic Acid, and ProXylane. They recommend to use it after cleansing and toning, and before a moisturizer.
On the other hand, there’s the Kiehl’s Skin-Renewing Daily Micro-Dose Retinol Serum (P4,950, 50ml). Used only twice a week and just a tiny pea-sized amount, this retinol, along peptides and ceramides, evens out skin tone and smoothes texture.

This product is formulated with Cactus Extract, organic Aloe Vera, Dandelion Extract, and Glowing Vitamin Complex which helps brighten and even out the skin tone with its combination of Vitamins E, B3, and B5.
Snailwhite Moisture Soothing Essence Water and Gold Lifting Essence Water
If you’re familiar with the rigorous Korean 12-step skincare regimen, you’ve probably heard about essence, a water-based hydrator that preps the skin to effectively absorb subsequent products. Snailwhite just came out with two variants that will cater to your specific needs.
The new Snailwhite Moisture Soothing Essence Water gives skin instant hydration and brightening, thanks to Nano Hyaluronic Acid, Squalene, Snail mucin, and Vitamin C.
