A Sweet-Smelling Shower
Raise your hand if you now take multiple showers in a day. There’s something deeply comforting about cleansing one’s self these days, whether it’s the cool water on your skin or watching the soapy bubbles rinse off. Up and coming local clean beauty brand For Keeps is keen on making your showers better with their line of “non-toxic, cruelty-free, GMO-free, sulfate-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, paraffin-free, responsibly packaged, handcrafted” and locally-sourced bath products.
We love the citrus-packed FOR KEEPS Arise Energize + Uplift Hand + Body Wash (P650) and Bar Soap (P295). They contain moisturizing cold-pressed coconut and olive oils and an energizing blend of lemon, lime, peppermint, calamansi, dalandan, orange and bergamot (they were serious about their citrus) essential oils. Truly keepers.
A Classic Pick
Has it really been 25 years since this pioneering beauty brand reached our shores? It’s a testament to their fair-trade efforts, stand against animal-testing and use of natural ingredients that The Body Shop continues their popularity among Filipinos. We’ve fallen for so many products over the years, from the White Musk Eau de Toilette, to the Olive Nourishing Dry Oil and the various body butters and shower gels.
Many of these cult favorites are now 25% off at thebodyshop.com.ph this month only, with the iconic Lip & Cheek Stain back to its debut price of P395. There are so many lip and cheek products out in the market now, but this original not only gives us that natural, long-lasting color we love, but it also brings back memories of our first crush, first dance…
A Cool-Off We Want Now
When it comes to cooling us off, beloved local brand Human Nature has got our backs. Technically, these are 3 things, but when the weather’s this heavy, we need them all. Their Volcanic Cooling Body Scrub (P495), Cooling Body Cleanser (P199.75) and Cooling Leg & Body Cream (P375) are packed with peppermint and eucalyptus oils, which give a lingering cooling effect that is positively addicting and mood-lifting.
We particularly love the scrub, which leaves our skin smooth and silky right out of the shower. Best of all, all Human Nature products are SLS/SLES-free, paraben-free and synthetic fragrance-free, so you get only all the good stufff.
The Gentle Refresher
Micellar water was one of those beauty game-changers years back, so it’s no wonder that many beauty brands now carry their own. Skin by BYS Extra Gentle Micellar Water is a fuss-free way to refresh, removing impurities, makeup, dirt and sweat without drying out skin. Unlike some micellar water, this one doesn’t leave a weird “film” or sticky feeling after.
Apart from vegan and cruelty-free, Skin By BYS products are also gentle and hypoallergenic. Tip: bring this bottle with you if you’re stepping out the whole day, along with a mineral water atomizer. It’s a great way to feel clean and revitalized without soap and water!
The Safety Heavyweight—That’s Lightweight!
Not all masks are created equal. A simple cloth mask may do, but if you want to be extra cautious, masking up with brands such as SCELIDO Nano Mask with Nose Lock is the way to go. A lot of careful thought went into producing this comfortable, lightweight mask, which offers antibacterial, antiviral, deodorizing, and UV protection.
Made out of copper-infused, Aerosilver Technology cloth, this three-layer mask is sleek, discreet and chic enough to go with many outfits. Honestly, putting on a secure, well-fitting mask makes us feel better immediately.
