MANILA, Philippines - Metallics are the new neutrals, they say. Even with makeup, metallics have reached a trans-seasonal status and are more universal now more than ever. Tom Pecheux, creative makeup director of Estée Lauder says, “When it comes to color, there are no limits. I like to have freedom. Metallic makeup does that.†Free yourself from the cold-month slump and go straight for festive looks with Estée Lauder’s The Metallics, a new Pure Color Collection, a versatile range of liquid shadows that saturate the eyes, vinyl finishes that lacquer the lips and hyper-chromatics that accessorize the nails.
For the lips, liquid and molten is the way to go. New Pure Color High Density Lip Lacquer drenches lips in rich hue with a moisture-infused formula that gives lips a cushioned feel that’s perfect for cool weather. It combines the creamy coverage of a lipstick and the high-shine of a gloss, it leaves a brilliant, glass-like finish in shades that go with the season’s trends, such as Electric Wine, Ruby Glow and Wet Plum. Available for P1,250 at Rustan’s Makati and Shangri-La in October.
