Visiting different stores can be tedious, especially when your favorite stores are in different malls. And though online shopping is a more convenient alternative, it still has its drawbacks: you can’t exactly test out the products, and the shipping fees and uncertain package arrivals can be a problem. So an ideal alternative here might be to find a one-stop shop—a single place that can cater to all your beauty needs.
For this, we recommend the SM Beauty at The SM Store. It has a wide variety of quality skincare and makeup brands. There are even SM Beauty Playgrounds in select branches that have all your favorite essentials—from face masks and lipsticks to cheek tints and toners.
Here are some brands you should check out:
1. Dear Dahlia
Dear Dahlia is a Korean brand that lets you achieve that timeless look that represents the one-of-a-kind beauty in each woman. Aside from paying homage to the “queen of the garden” through their brand name, the dahlia flower’s extract gives their products antioxidant properties, protecting the skin from damage and providing anti-aging benefits.
2. Sunnies Face
The brainchild of Sunnies Studios’ Georgina Wilson, Martine Cajucom, and Bea Soriano Dee, Sunnies Face offers cruelty-free and paraben-free quality products that won’t leave too big a dent in your wallet.

Founded by beauty YouTuber Jeffree Star, Jeffree Star Cosmetics is a cruelty-free and vegan cosmetic brand from Los Angeles, California. Aside from being known for his famous liquid velour lipsticks, Jeffree has also collaborated with different YouTubers to produce eye and face palettes.
