Preen picks: Local products we’re copping during Lazada’s Beauty Extrava-ganda

My love affair with all things beauty is very recent, but just like any other woman interested in beauty, the need or want for new and upcoming products never wane. Imagine how fast my heart raced when Lazada announced there’s a sale happening called Beauty Extrava-ganda. Local cult faves will get up to 70 percent off so to be smart about it, I’m already making a list and planning my shopping spree.

Allow me to list down the products I will be adding in my cart. And all are approved by #TeamPreenPH. Obsessed~

Sunnies Face Fluffmatte lipsticks with jelly pouch


Okay, my team and I reviewed and talked about this new line of lipsticks—and obviously we can’t get enough. I’m here to cop the sets because I want to complete all nine shades plus the cutest jelly pouch in cherry.

Beach Born Didi Cupps 2 in 1 shampoo bar


I try my best to lessen my waste and be more sustainable. One of the steps I took was to switch from shampoo in plastic bottles to shampoo bars with reusable containers. There’s a lot of local brands coming up with their own recipes and I’m pretty excited for Beach Born’s deep conditioning formula!

Happy Skin Yes, I Dew highlighter pen


I’m all for dewy skin that looks bouncy and fresh and this Happy Skin highlighter pen is easy and fuss-free. Just swipe on the high points of your face and blend, plus points because it’s compact and can be stashed in my sling bag.

M&Co. Cosmetics Bold Matte Liquid Lipstick


One of the many reasons why I keep copping matte liquid is because I don’t have to retouch as often. And the latest one I’ve been eyeing is the Bold Matte Liquid Lipstick from local brand

M&Co., specifically in the color Pirate Queen because I’m still into the ’90s look. And since it promises to be kiss proof and smudge proof then I know I won’t ever have to worry.

Ellana Stay Matte Poreless Powder


I know it’s not new, but I’ve only recently started “baking” to make sure my concealer doesn’t budge by end of day. This sheer translucent powder from Ellana has great reviews and I can’t wait to try it. Plus it’s fragrance-free, paraben-free, and cruelty-free.

Hello Gorgeous! Face Mask Rose


I love to collect face masks that come in tubs because I believe they are more sustainable (though I still use sheet masks from time to time). This in particular is known for its moisturizing and brightening benefits—plus it promises to shrink my pores. Oh yes!

Ever Bilena Lip & Cheek Roller


For days when I don’t feel like wearing makeup, but can’t be caught with a pale face—go for this easy-to-use and long-wearing lip and cheek tint. It gives you a natural flush without looking too made up!

Yoga Love Healing Cream in Cooling Chamomile

My friends rave about this cooling cream that they love to use post-workout (or strenuous activity like traveling). It gives off a relaxing smell and cooling effect to soothe your muscles. I love slathering this to recover!

The first 200 readers will get 25 percent off when you use the “PREENxLazada” voucher code from Aug. 27 to 28. Maximum discount is at P300 with a minimum spend of P500. Happy shopping!
