The Latest in Local: Top 5 Picks from These New Local Brands

Titas, I have news for you! I just got the insider info that fresh drops of local beauty, skin care, and health and wellness products are now available on Calyxta (for you to hoard) and of course, my natural instinct is to share it with you!

My advice is that you skim through the list below quickly and start adding to cart ASAP, before stocks run out! *wink wink*

1. Beauty by Hodgepodge MNL Tinted Sunscreen with Moisturizer

It’s a moisturizer. It’s tinted. And it has SPF, too. Honestly, it would be a sin to step out into the sun without sun protection these days! If you can’t handle thick, moisture-locking foundation in this heat, this product is enough to give you a light coverage for every day, with SPF 50 to protect you from harmful UV rays, too.

2. Happy Island Lip Balm

The summer heat is seriously making us want to glug on fruit shakes 24/7! Meanwhile, let us not forget to keep our puckers moisturized, too. Happy Island’s new lip balms come in yummy fruity flavors and a vanilla one that’ll make you not forget to keep re-applying!

3. Beauty by Hodgepodge MNL Aloe Vera Serum Moisturizer

Think calming, soothing, and brightening. Consider this serum a summer essential with its cooling aloe vera extract that also helps heal tired and sunburnt skin! Best part is that you can also use this as a primer before applying your makeup.

4. Happy Island Makeup Remover

Don’t just be a beauty girl—be an eco-conscious one. I know it’s easier said than done, especially when we grew up with single-use everything. Take it one step at a time and try this washable and reusable makeup remover to start.

5. Makiling Herbarium Multitasking Oil No. 7

Use this as a makeup remover or a makeup primer, or as treatment on your nails, lips, hair, and skin. This product isn’t kidding about multi-tasking! It helps refine pores, firm your skin, bring out your natural glow, and many, many more.
