View this post on Instagram
K-beauty has dominated the skincare world over the last few years and quickly made its self at home in our skincare routines. Well, F-beauty, aka Filipino beauty, is about to join the party, but instead of adorning your bathroom shelf, you’ll need to make some space in your makeup bag. What can you expect from F-beauty? Conscious, clean makeup products with long-lasting multitasking formulas that cater to a range of skin tones at affordable prices. That’s why we’re starting to see it crop up in the makeup kits of A-listers and some of our fave MUAs. Now we have your attention, here are all the deets.
Why F-Beauty Is SO Popular

F-beauty is honing in on the current beauty conversation of conscious, clean, and inclusive makeup products, which explains its new-found popularity. With the majority of the trending makeup lines being paraben-free, cruelty-free, suitable for a range of skin tones, and uber affordable (many of the products retail for less than $10), it ticks all the boxes. We also love the multitasking formulas that promise to save you both time and money. The added bonus? The packaging is hella-cute and a little bit luxe, think Glossier meets Milk. Finally, we have to mention the F-beauty Instagram grids we’ve been seeing, which epitomize makeup goals with plenty of monochromatic makeup looks and dewy skin galore.
While F-beauty has been pretty difficult to get your hands-on in the Western world up until recently, US Beauty site, Rosie Inc, has just started stocking the cult F-beauty brand, Sunnies Face. You can also buy a ton of F-beauty products at online retailer PNYbeauty.com – our cart is currently full!
Here’s everything you need to know about the F-beauty brands that are about to be everywhere.

Sunnies Face is paving the way for F-beauty and is so far the best-known brand among the bunch all thanks to their matte lipstick, named Fluffmate.
