Filipina beauty has gone a long way since the ancient times.
In an article by Allure, according to the book Barangay by historian William Henry Scott, women then had their own supply of makeup such as “tana” eyebrow paint, “pupol” face powder, red kamuntigi nail polish and the yellow barak root as skin lotion.
As the country evolved, so are these traditions.
This June, the best of local fashion and beauty come together for one exciting pop-up. Two Filipino powerhouse retail brands, Kultura and SM Beauty, are teaming up for “Glow Filipina,” a one-of-a-kind event that celebrates modern Filipina beauty and style.
