<div><strong>Neutrogena’s Visible Repair Line Comes to the Philippines</strong></div><p>Hitting the pause button on aging becomes a top skincare priority as we enter our late twenties. Physical, environmental, and even emotional stressors affect the appearance and overall health of our skin; and unfortunately, collagen production slows down over time, making the natural recovery process a little more difficult to navigate. Such has us turning to active ingredients for help, and retinol has proven itself to be quite the superstar in turning back time. </p><div><br/></div><p>Neutrogena’s latest innovation, the <strong>Visible Repair</strong> product line, is an advanced skincare solution formulated to target early signs of aging, helping to rejuvenate and renew your skin. The Patented Pure Retinol formula accelerates skin renewal, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles while enhancing skin tone and texture. Advanced Antioxidants protect against environmental damage to collagen, and the Comfort Complex nourishes and hydrates skin, reducing the irritation that sometimes comes when starting a retinol routine. Each product in the line delivers visible results for smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin in as little as seven days.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/9d5f0651-6bfe-4d6d-b8a6-203c06cb0e86_faces of neutrogena visible repair kaila estrada and megan young.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Kaila Estrada and Megan Young for Neutrogena</span></span></span></div><p>Neutrogena also introduced Megan Young and Kaila Estrada as the new ambassadors of the Visible Repair line.

The much-awaited Beverly Hills branch is finally open, in Rodeo Drive, no less! The vision of CEO <strong>Rachelle Bravo </strong>from years ago has finally come into fruition. They call it &#x27;A reality of epic proportions from our humble beginnings.&#x27; With countless branches in the Philippines, it&#x27;s but natural for the brand to aspire to reach both Filipinos and foreigners alike in the US, and now, that has finally come true last July 25, 2024 with a launch dubbed &#x27;Future Perfect&#x27;.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/112a33e9-9f7c-45c4-bc64-4ebe48550a3d_402b75db-6214-4415-9a76-fb3d229a8c42.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">NEW Lounge is now open in Beverly Hills, California</span></span></span></div><p>“This is the culmination of our love and passion for NEW Lounge. This milestone will not only highlight our roots as Filipinos, but also champion the heart, dedication, and collective stories of our Lash Dolls, the community and Filipino talent to the world. We are also bringing in the best Japanese technology, merging it with Filipino hospitality, in a holistic customer journey. We call it the NEW Lounge Magic,” shared NEW Lounge founder and Chief executive officer Rachelle Bravo.&#x27;</p><div><br/></div><p>NEW Lounge Beverly Hills will house signature and exclusive designs to the LA Lash Dolls and will also offer the bestselling services of its Philippine counterpart.
