The Beauty Beat: Your Beauty Fix for the Day

MAC Viva Glam Gives Back

MAC gives back this #WorldAidsDay together with artists, digital creators, and key opinion leaders such as EJ Nacion, Mela Habijan, Teree Daisuke, Daniella Roi, and Jorence de Limos by visiting the H4 Ward of San Lazaro Hospital. The visit was followed by an intimate #MACVivaGlam Thanksgiving Luncheon with friends from the press to invite them in joining the fight and helping spread the word to end HIV/AIDS through awareness and prevention. The foundation was started by the makeup brand in 1994 and has raised over 520 million USD in donations, empowering those living with and affected by HIV/AIDS through the Viva Glam lipsticks.

Give the Gift of Azzaro this Holiday Season

Azzaro’s Wanted Eau de Parfum is one of those scents that makes you do a double take. The bottle mimics the case of a bullet and features a mixed metal design. On the first whiff, you’ll likely be intrigued by its juniper top notes, sage heart for its middle note, and vetiver at its base. This perfume manages to be sweet, cozy, and energizing, it’s made for men who would risk it all! Just in time for the holidays, Azzaro’s Wanted is perfect warmth for the cold season.
