<div><strong>Watsons Redefines Hair Confidence at Flip It, Flaunt It Campaign Event</strong></div><p>Watsons put hair front and center this July with its bold and vibrant “Flip It, Flaunt It” Campaign to celebrate the beauty of self-expression through every strand. The week-long event featured immersive lounges, free hair makeovers, and expert-led tips and consultations powered by Parlon. </p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-2" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMSCQd5TovY/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A2%2C%22os%22%3A6536504.599999994%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="993" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-2" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>The campaign went beyond surface-level treatments to teach guests how to match products with real hair concerns like dryness, damage, and scalp issues. With the launch of Hair Chair Stories, a social media series featuring expert advice from dermatologists and stylists, the brand extended its impact beyond the event space and into everyday routines.</p><p>With personalized scalp analysis and exciting new product launches, Watsons proved once again that hair care is both vanity and identity, and that everyone deserves to wear theirs with confidence. The event also showcased a curated hair care line-up, including trusted names like Urban Care, Mise en Scene, L&#x27;Oréal, Naturals by Watsons, Dove, Tsubaki, Fino, Head &amp; Shoulders, Pantene and more hair care brands.

Long known for its skincare expertise, the brand now introduces personalized hair restoration services, including scalp therapy, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, exosome treatments, and hair transplants.</p><p>At the launch event, hair specialist Dr. Corazon Mela shed light on the truth behind hair loss, revealing that over 50% of cases in people aged 50 and above are caused by genetics and hormone sensitivity. “Many people think stress or hats cause hair loss,” she clarified. “The most common cause is androgenic alopecia. Hair restoration isn’t just about looking good; it’s about regaining confidence.” </p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMUHjeOzP0Q/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A6485739%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="993" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>From cutting-edge therapies to personalized care, the new flagship clinic offers a new chapter for those ready to reclaim their confidence, one strand at a time. <strong><em>—Leigh Lazo</em></strong></p><div><br/></div><div><strong>We Visited the Pond’s Meet Your Biome Buddies Pop-Up at SM Mall of Asia</strong></div><p>There was a moment of joy as Pond’s introduced a new skincare product, the “Hydra Miracle Ultra Light Biome Gel,” along with a range of charming friends, the Biome Buddies!

Pond’s decision to step into another formulation that their customers will love is nothing short of expected from the trusted brand. Pond’s Hydra Miracle Ultra Light Biome Gel is a moisturizer that stabilizes the skin’s natural barrier, acting as the first line of defense. This makes the skin stronger against harsh weather conditions, such as what we experience in the country. <strong><em>—Arci Claveria</em></strong></p><div><strong><br/></strong></div><div><strong>What Went Down at the Laneige x Matcha Mama Party</strong></div><p>Laneige joined the matcha craze with popular matcha brand Matcha Mama.
