New year, new makeup. We love having holy grails but we’re also constantly on the lookout for the next thing F-beauty has to offer. We’ve also learned of the perils of not breaking up with makeup way past their due dates. So, we went on a search for the latest makeup drops from some of our favorite Filipino beauty brands to add something new to our makeup rotation.
Here’s a list of new products that could be the next mainstays on your vanity.
