Gabbi Garcia is many things: She’s an actress, vlogger, singer, podcaster, and a budding entrepreneur—but above all that, she’s also a beauty girl. “I’m such a beauty girl from the get-go. Like people, especially my followers, [know that] I’ve been very vocal about me appreciating beauty, and not just beauty, but fashion also. Anything that makes you really feel good, I’m for it,” she said.
Her ethos when it comes to beauty is that it should be quick and easy to put on. “I’ve always been a fan of beauty that isn’t so tiring to put on or that takes [too many] steps,” Gabbi told the media. It should be something that’ll help you get ready in under five minutes, something like Five Beauty.
What Is Five Beauty?
Meet Five Beauty, the brainchild of founders Veronica Eala, Isabel Regino, and celebrity co-founder Gabbi Garcia. Together, the three came up with the Hybrid Colour Stick Collection—a line of easy-to-use, buildable, and blendable multi-sticks made with skin-loving ingredients.
During the launch of Five Beauty last November 15, 2023, Gabbi spoke about how she became a co-founder of the brand, saying, “I was really looking for people who could help me with a beauty brand.” She continued, “Veronica and I bumped into each other, and we super clicked. We share the same interests when it comes to business and when it comes to beauty, and then it all rolled on from that.”
Now, you’re probably wondering about this “multi-purpose product.” I don’t know about you, but for someone who's always on the go, the more multi-purpose products you have, the easier your life will be. Not to mention, these aren’t just any multi-sticks. As the Philippines’ first-ever hybrid beauty brand, the Hybrid Colour Sticks fuse science-backed skincare with high-performance color cosmetics, ensuring that they not only make you look good but make your skin feel good, too.
Oh, and did we mention that Five Beauty formulates its products with vegan and cruelty-free ingredients? This guarantees that the products are not only beneficial but also suitable for sensitive skin. Additionally, they’re fortified with SPF 20 to ensure that your skin gets continuous protection from the sun all day long. But don’t just take our word for it; Gabbi revealed that she’s been using this product non-stop, especially during her previous trip to New York.
“I’ve been using it for months now, and yun lang talaga bumubuhay sakin every day, and I really want to share it with everybody because it’s makeup that isn’t damaging your skin. In fact, it has SPF and it moisturizes your skin, so it's not really intimidating to use [and] it’s not something that can dry up your skin,” she said. “I know that putting my name out there is a big risk, but for this one, I'm really confident kasi ako mismo I'm a user of the product and I was part of the process and everything, so I can attest that it’s really good,” she affirms.
The Hybrid Colour Sticks come in five universally flattering shades: Sunkissed (a bright peachy coral), Bliss (a cool rosy pink), Dreamy (a warm terracotta), Iconic (a vivid red), and Mystique (a soft fuschia berry). Each is enriched with skin-boosting ingredients such as olive oil for skin-hydrating antioxidants, meadowfoam oil that adds an extra layer of sun protection, jojoba oil that is rich in vitamin E, goji berry to brighten the complexion, and aloe leaf extract to soothe the skin.
For only P399 per stick, you’ll definitely be getting the best bang for your buck!
