Chanel promises a facelift in a bottle
MANILA, Philippines - Chanel Research takes a unique and original approach to combating loss of skin firmness by creating the Ultra Correction Lift range. With Ultra Correction Lift, Chanel introduces the “cellular lifting effect.” The face appears naturally lifted from within and regains its initial firmness. Thanks to the action of elemi PFA, derived from a gum tree native to the Philippines, the Manila elemi, which produces a resin used in traditional Chinese medicine for its regenerating properties, cellular tension is restored, skin tissues are restructured, the skin is re-densified and firmed, and facial contours appear visibly lifted and redefined.
The Ultra Correction Lift line includes the Express Lifting Firming Mask, a high-performance facemask formulated with a combination of active ingredients that firm and tighten the skin; the smooth, fragrance-free texture of Total Eye Lift gently glides over the fragile skin of the eyelids to tighten the eye area and light up the eyes, thanks to the presence of soft-focus pearly particles; the Plumping Anti-Wrinkle Lips and Contour is an exceptional skincare product equipped with powerful firming, smoothing and plumping active ingredients to correct all signs of aging in the lip area, including nasolabial lines. It boosts cellular activity to restore skin firmness, fill out fine lines, firm up smile lines and restore fullness to the lips.
These exceptional skincare products formulated around the active ingredient, elemi PFA, offer rich, silky textures, accompanied by a delicate floral scent heightened by green and crisp fruity notes over a powdery base with hints of precious woods.
Chanel’s Ultra Correction Lift range is exclusively available at Chanel counters in Rustan’s.

Benetton’s 4 colorful scents for men and women
Benetton has always stood for color, celebrating the diversity of the world. Like color, fragrance is a universal language. Now color and fragrance come together in a collection of scents inspired by Benetton’s legacy of creativity, universality and youthfulness with color at its heart. A collection of four perfumes, Rosso and Giallo for women, Verde and Blu for men, represents an homage to Benetton’s history and is inspired by iconic colors and the wool stitch, timeless elements of the brand’s DNA.
Rosso (Red) for women, inspired by the color of anger and passion, love, revolution and romance, is sexy, lively and warm. Juicy fruit notes like mandarin, citron and passion fruit give way to sensual peony, syringa and jasmine sambac. The intimate, comforting drydown mingles soft patchouli and vanilla.
Giallo (Yellow) for women, which celebrates the color of sunshine, energy, optimism and happiness, is sparkling, vibrant and radiant. Top notes of water fruit, red fruit, anise and crisp spearmint blends with a bright floral heart of fresh lotus, modern rose, powdery violet and velvety peach, drying down to an addictive harmony of tonka bean, vanilla, musks and white woods.
Verde (Green) for men communicates the color of the natural world with an energetic, natural and strong composition. This contemporary classic resonates with the virile note of cedarwood, topped by grapefruit, cardamom and melon with base notes of gaiac and benzoin for a calming effect.
Blu (Blue) reflects the blue of the ocean and sky, combining top notes of lemon with lavender and cool air. The masculine heart blends basil with rosemary and clary sage, settling on the skin with a base of white cedarwood, patchouli and soft cocoa bean.
Benetton Rosso, Verde, Giallo and Blu are available in SM Department Stores nationwide.
