How about a treat for dull, parched skin thereafter? Choose from plant-powered creams, masks and oils to bring back your glow.

Céleteque Micellar Cleansers
Get truly clean and healthy skin
While many of us spend our time indoors, dirt and oil still find their way to our skin. Cleansing with facial wash is great but may not be enough to get rid of stubborn dirt and makeup. The answer? Double-cleanse but with a product that gently cleanses and improves skin quality: Céleteque Micellar cleansers. Clinically proven and formulated with the experts, it comes in two variants: Céleteque Hydration Micellar Water, and Céleteque Brightening Micellar Milk.
Micellar Water cleanses and moisturizes by improving skin moisture by 35% upon application. It also has Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) to help hydrate and Chamomile Extract to soothe skin. Meanwhile Micellar Milk, made for dull skin, cleanses, brightens and smoothes skin thanks to ingredients such as Vitamin B3 and Rice Milk Extract.
Best of all, both variants are dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, and paraben- and alcohol-free!

Furla Fragrances
Floral, fruity and fresh!
Furla teamed up with the world’s best in fragrance to bring you a five-piece collection of timeless scents housed in stylish colored bottles punctuated with gold elements:
Magnifica is feminine and irresistible; it opens up with top notes of mandarin, blue lavender and peach followed by rose, jasmine and lily of the valley. All that is complemented with dry amber, vanilla orchid, sandalwood and musk, creating a lasting, aromatic statement.
Romantica is delicate in contrast, featuring peonies and sparkling notes of blackcurrant and davana. Modern and unexpected but never overpowering, the scent reveals vanilla notes with creamy sandalwood and patchouli.
If beauty, grace and flawlessness were a scent it would smell Irresistible. Made with a bouquet of white camellia and tuberose, lily of the valley and orange flower, the result is intoxicating and unlike anything you have smelled before.
Preziosa is to luxury with its heart of sensual florals, like rose and geranium, extraordinary notes of saffron and pink pepper, and a duet of vanilla and suede.
Last but not least is Favolosa, inspired by the woman who is joy incarnate; the life of the party if you will. Think top notes of grapefruit and green mandarin followed by heady florals such as magnolia and peony, and finally, white musk and orcanox.
Shop the 30ml bottle for P2,950 or the 100ml bottle for P5,850 in leading department stores, Rustan's Makati, Rustan's Gateway, Rustan's Alabang, Rustan's Shangri-la, SM North Edsa, SM Makati, SM Megamall, SM Mall of Asia, Landmark Trinoma, and Robinsons Ermita.
