COS launches limited edition eyewear
COS and Linda Farrow announced a limited-edition partnership for eyewear. The 10-piece collection features modified favorites from the debut COS × Linda Farrow collaboration alongside freshly reworked archival frames. A 1970s-style oversized shape synonymous with Linda Farrow was reimagined with colorful transparent frames, evoking a sense of nostalgia and sophistication. Reworked tortoiseshell aviators with gradient-tinted lenses are found alongside gently curved oval frames and a narrower cat-eye silhouette, blending old-school charm with modern sensibilities. With a continued focus on detail and craftsmanship, gold and silver-tone cut-outs add a contemporary twist to classic styles. Designed with longevity and function in mind, the lenses offer 100% UV protection and are enclosed in a protective case with a cleaning cloth. The Linda Farrow collection is available at the COS Store at SM Aura Premier for a limited time only.

Ever Bilena launches liquid blush
Ever Bilena launches the Pillow Pop Liquid Blush. This liquid blush is a gel-based liquid color that comes in four shades: Rouge (a soft magenta), Toast of New York (a warm brick red), Fresno (fresh watermelon), and Raspberry (a rich berry). Aside from adding a dash of color to cheeks, it also helps nourish skin with the moisturizing effects of Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E. While this pillow pop is meant to be used as a blush, it can also be used on the lips, lids, and cheeks. To use, apply one dot of the liquid blush on the cheek, and blend it up toward the temples to give the face a more natural flush. Dab as needed to diffuse color, using a damp sponge, a blending brush, or the fingers. The Ever Bilena Pillow Pop Liquid Blush is available for P275. Ever Bilena products can be purchased on their official Shopee and Lazada stores, at Watsons branches nationwide, and at all leading department stores nationwide.
