Read MoreShopping at the Clinique Counter: The Clinique 3-Step Solution
It’s not the most affordable skincare and makeup line in the market, but I’ve been a loyal customer of Clinique since high school. I used to get very bad acne breakouts, which was partially caused by the cheap cosmetics I used. My mom’s sister, who is a dermatologist, recommended that I ditch the Johnson and Johnson’s face powders and use Clinique’s...

Philippine-made products are among the best in the world, and I’m not just saying that because I have a lot of Pinoy pride. We truly are a very talented bunch, but it just so happens that we’re also a source of cheap labor. This means that everyone else in the world – except for us! – don’t get to experience the best of what our fellow Filipinos have made. This...
