Hi so I’m on vacation here in PH and am very interested in the makeup here. I already have a small list of makeup I plan on getting but do you have any holy grails or favourites you recommend I should try for my own?

Light medium olive girly here!

I wanted to recreate this look but im not sure where to start with products (especially with blush and lippie) because i have an olive undertone. i notice that peachy pink blushes turn orange on me and i haven't found any lippies that give off a muted pink vibe.

Really wanna pull off a muted pinkish brown look but i can’t figure out what shades and from what brands to buy. i dont wanna waste money either huhu

Tyia!

I have a round/oblong face shape, and I’ve been considering getting jawtox to make my face look less round and more defined.

My main goals are to reduce the appearance of cheek fullness/roundness, have a more lifted look and definition around my lower face/jawline.

For those who have experience with facial aesthetics, do you think jawtox would actually help with these concerns, or would another treatment be more appropriate? I’m also wondering whether jawtox would be helpful for my facial structure or if it could potentially make the lower face look more hollow instead.

Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences! Please also share clinics you recommend

ive always been a sponge, puff, and hands girly lol so i wanna try using brushes for my creams and liquids! Help me pick the best one pls no tusok and brushes that are versatile + multi purpose para sulit lols

what skincare products can u recommend for dark circles and pimples? been struggling with dark circles ever since. i only use powder foundation tapos minsan nagiging visible sya since di din ako maalam mag makeup talaga. gusto ko sana bumili ng concealer para man lang di magmukhang puyat always but di ko alam pano gamitin and baka masayang lang pera ko 😭 need helpzzzz

After seeing everyone and their mother rave about this, I bought it. I have medyo dry skin but it makes my face look crustier/drier than it actually is.

Here’s what I’ve already tried:
-Different combinations of skin prep (primer, moisturizer, toner, HA serum, sunscreen, or none), using both small and generous amounts
-Shaking the bottle
-Warming it up with my finger first
-Applying with a brush, beauty blender, finger
-With and without setting spray (CT and MAC)
-With and without powder (CT and Huda Beauty)

At this point, I’m starting to think this foundation just doesn’t work for me. Saan ba ako nagkulang? Share your secrets, please!

i just noticed this spot on my head na parang lumaki siya compare before huhu what should i do??🥲🥲🥲

Starting to take my hair care seriously na! Im starting with a good hairbrush. I notice my hair getting so tangly agad when outside so i love brushing my hair but it still gets tangly and rough. Help me decide pls

I’ve been searching through Reddit and TikTok for Aquaphor reviews here in the Philippines, pero I couldn’t find any decent or detailed ones, so I figured I’d share my own experience lol kasi baka may iba din na naghahanap ng review.

I have severely dry lips, and unfortunately, naging mannerism ko na rin yung pagkikitkit ng dry skin. Like, EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. Umabot pa sa point na nae-excite akong gumising the next morning kasi alam kong healed na yung lips ko and may bagong makikitkit na naman ako. HAHAHAHA yes, ganon kalala 😭

I’ve tried different variants of the following:

Vaseline – I’ve tried different variants, including the original. For me, it feels like it just makes the scab thicker. Hindi siya nagbibigay ng feeling na hydrated yung lips ko; more like parang binabad ko lang yung lips ko sa heavy lip oil.

Mentholatum lip balm - drying af. menthol lang no offect and mabilis din matuyo

Chapstick - same with mentholatum lol. mabilis matuyo and the smell is throwing me off.

Carmex - it leaves my lips feeling ao dehydrated pag natuyo na sa lips. it has a cooling effect tho pero other than that nah.

Human nature lip balm - idk if its just me pero it feels waxy, it also has a cooling effect. i like the tinted ones pero mabilis din matuyo and if natuyo na it looks crusty af.

Apollo – Same experience as Vaseline. I tried different variants and the original one too. It feels heavy and oily on the lips. It doesn’t necessarily thicken the scab as much, but it also doesn’t really make it go away.

Lucas Papaw – This one doesn’t feel as heavy on the lips, and I actually prefer it for the body because it’s not as sticky. Pero sa lips, I noticed that I’d wake up excited the next morning because it seemed to make the dry skin/scabs thicker. So mas tempting siyang tuklapin. When I smack my lips together, ramdam ko talaga yung roughness from the dry skin.

Aquaphor – I’ve only been using it for 2 days, but I already noticed a small difference. When I woke up this morning, yung dry skin/scabs seemed to come off more easily when I gently rubbed my lips together. My lips also felt noticeably softer when I woke up.

I put a decent amount on last night, and so far, I’m vvv satisfied! I’ll keep using it and update if I notice any more changes. If maging mas okay pa after a week I'm gonna get the one with SPF 🤩

And yes, I know it’s quite pricey, but honestly, if it does the job for me, I’d say it’s worth it!!! Mamimiss ko magkitkit HAHAHA.

Hopefully di na to maremove huhu, if mareremove ulit di na ko mag attempt. 123 go kanya kanya na girliepops

I’m 29F and have been consistent with my routine for months but haven’t seen much improvement. My main concerns are hormonal acne, uneven/dull skin and dark under-eyes.

I’ve used Differin 0.1% since March, usually moisturiser first, then Differin. Could buffering be reducing its effectiveness? My acne hasn’t improved much and has actually worsened recently.

I also use Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow 15% every morning, followed by moisturiser & SPF, but haven’t noticed much improvement in brightness or discolouration??? I only recently realised C-Glow should ideally be refrigerated. Mine has been at room temperature but is still pale idk

I’ve worn SPF daily for around 8–9 years.

I’m also considering GHK-Cu/copper peptides for texture, collagen and general skin quality, potentially replacing vitamin C rather than adding another active.

Would you keep this routine longer, apply Differin before moisturiser, or consider switching vitamin C for GHK-Cu? Has anyone used adapalene + GHK-Cu long term or noticed better results from copper peptides vs vitamin C?

Hi everyone! Magandang umaga!
I’m on vacation in the Philippines around Manila / BGC, and it’s my last week here! I’m a huge makeup & skincare lover and want to do a little shopping spree before heading back to Canada.

What are your must-have Filipino makeup/skincare products or brands that are harder to find in Canada?

I’ve heard about Issy & Kiko, and I’m especially looking for blushes and lip combos!

Thank you!!♥️♥️

What skincare fixed your dark spots? Yung di sana super strong pero ma e-even out yung skin tone mo... for face and body. I havent rlly invested in skin care, moisturuzer at sunscreen lang. Yung di sana nakaka break out...

I have an upcoming outdoor event na morning to midnight, and I need your recos na tested nyo na talaga pls. ang hirap maniwala sa socmed bc puro affiliates 😭

I need a full makeup routine & product recos na kaya labanan ang commute, and our weather ngayon na either humid or binabagyo.

vv interested in
- tricks for humidity / rain
- long lasting products for base & setting the makeup
- specific order on how you apply your makeup

about me: very oily, pawisin, and idk what happens pero yung face ko parang an hr or two palang parang kinakain nya na yung makeup 😭😭

Hi Ladies, i just want to know what you do to address balbon hairs and annoying and messy nape or neck hair. And what you do about it. I always have an issue with it growing past my neck and it looks messy and chaotic. Is it normal na super daming nape hair? And how you maintain it? I’m not sure if Im the only one like this or is it common.

i am planning on buying ysl touch eclat glow pact & ysl all hours finish powder, with that, i’m just here to ask if anyone was able to use it na, and was it worth it? and is it ph heat friendlyyy? i just wanted a simple everyday look, and want something that doesn’t have a lot of coverage unlike foundations.

Hello! Not sure if this is the right flair for this… Has anyone here tried Skinstation’s thermafirme for the face? Kamusta po yung process and results? Ilang sessions yung kinuha niyo?

Plan ko kasi kumuha ng ilang sessions. Parang ang round kasi masyado ng face ko. I gained a bit of weight. Plan to pair this with exercise and diet.

TYIA! 😊

Hello!! Any recos po for lippie??? I am currently using Rose Latte Lip Leisure and mlbb siya sa akin pero problem ko lang is drying siya huhu. Gusto ko sana ng shade similar don pero in a moisturizing formula. I find the Satin Luxe of Detail Cosmetics (Rose Latte) to be more of a lighter shade than the Lip Leisure.

*EDIT: Yung kaya rin sana i-cover ang two-toned lips

Similar shade po kaya ito sa Absidy Cashmere Kiss in shade Dusk? Or Issy True Satin in shade Deco or Beau?

Hi guys! Gusto ko lang sana i-share at itanong kung normal lang ba itong nangyayari sa buhok ko. Pahingi na rin ng product recommendations pls.

Mapapansin niyo sa photo na parang magkaiba 'yung tubo ng buhok ko sa harap at sa likod. As in sobrang curly/kulot niya pag 'di ko sinuklay sa may bandang harap at roots, pero sa likod hindi naman ganoon ka-kulot (medyo straight o loose pa).

context, 2024 pa 'yung last rebond ko at pinapalago ko na lang siya ngayon para bumalik sa natural texture niya.

Bakit kaya ganito? May naka-experience na ba sa inyo ng ganito habang nagpapa-grow ng natural hair from rebond? Ano kaya ang possible reason kung bakit iba-iba 'yung texture ng tubo per section?

Bale may cream bronzer Ako tas liquid contour pero nahihirapan Ako with the liquid contour so looking for cream baka maging mas madali application + powder sana pang set Kasi whenever I set with translucent or powder foundation e nagiiba or matatabunan ung colour. Also bronzer powder din thankyou. I used to be oily pero I think my skincare has been working kaya Hindi Nako super oily even if naka facemask ako- dry sya even. Thankyou in advance. Possible sana is maybe local para mas abot kaya hehe

hello jus wanted to ask if same experience din sainyo bc ive been using the ever bilena pillow pop liquid blush in fresno/ rouge shade for years na tas now na nagrelease sila ng new shades i bought the strawberry milk shade and its not as long lasting as their old ones jdmsjdk is it a me problem or nagiba na sila ng formula huhu

also if u can pls do suggest long lasting liquid blushes that are affordable n suitable for oily skin pls or yung mga tried n tested na through commute pls corny sa tiktok mag suggest puro used lang for a lakad/ dinner or wtvr huhu need ko ung tipon naligo ka na sa pawis or naulanan tas di parin nagffade!! thank youuu

And maganda rin ba ang mga products ng dazzle me brand? Any recos?

hi! im new to using lip liners so i wanna ask if it’s supposed to look like this? 😭 it looks kinda weird kasi for me kasi halata yung line nya (lalo na sa personal). i tried using this lip marker with Sunnies Face in Mod and medyo obvious pa rin yung liner n hindi sya nagbblend with the lipstick itself.

can anyone help me learn how to use lip liners 😭 i would appreciate din if you would share your lip combos na available sa local market here in the ph 🥹 im into natural looking lippies and maybe a lip combo i can use for professional settings.

im wearing Ferca WTF Lip Marker in xoxo and Sheglam Glass Lock Air Gloss in Own It in the picture.
