Beauty Box: A Lush suncare regimen
The products: Lush Sesame Suntan Lotion, Lush The Sunblock, and Lush Powdered Sunshine
What makes them unique: Lush’s new range of sunscreens mixes safe, synthetic sunscreens (which deliver both SPF and UVA protection), and beneficial natural ingredients, such as calamine powder, zinc oxide, sesame oil and olibanum oil.
The sunscreens are not tested on animals. Instead, the SPFs and UVAPFs are determined by exposing a small patch of the person’s skin to broad-spectrum UV light while wearing the product.
The Sesame Suntan Lotion contains SPF 10, for those who want to tan while keeping skin moisturized and soft. The Sunblock is a solid sunscreen wash that soothes, heals, and calms skin. It contains cocoa butter, which carries the sunscreen into the skin as it melts. Powdered Sunshine is a light powder with sunscreens, cocoa butter, and calamine to protect from harmful UV rays. It is an excellent product to carry around for easy, quick sun protection.
Where to get them: Lush is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists, Inc. and is located at Glorietta 4, Shangri-La Mall, Greenbelt 3, Mall of Asia, Bonifacio High Street, TriNoma, SM The Block, and Alabang Town Center.

Infinite lip color from Max Factor
The product: Max Factor Lipfinity Lip Color Collection
What it is: Max Factor Lipfinity, the best-selling, long-wear lip innovation from Max Factor, is now available in 20 new shades that deliver up to 24 hours of fresh color without drying or caking, thanks to an intelligent two-step formula and an innovative new applicator.
How does it work: Unlike other long-wear lipsticks that can appear dry and dull on the lips, new Max Factor Lipfinity delivers long-lasting color that feels soft and lightweight all day long, while still delivering an alluring shine and intense color hit. This is due in part to the smart new bullet-inspired applicator which, compared to conventional doe-foot applicators, delivers a much thinner, more even layer of color.
Where to get it: Max Factor Lipfinity is available at department stores.
