The Calyxta Crew Answers: If You Had P1,500 to Spend, What Would You Buy?

In case you hadn’t heard, Calyxta offers free shipping for orders P1,500 and up. So it’s the perfect excuse to add a few more things to your cart to waive shipping fees (and indulge yourself with more goodies!).

I asked the Calyxta Crew what they’d buy from Calyxta if they had P1,500 to spare. Here’s what they answered:

If I had P1,500 to spend on Calyxta, I’d splurge on a Glossier Boy Brow—because I can finish one tube in less than three months, and then I’d have to buy again. So it would be nice to have a stash of it! As for the remaining P300, I’d go for a nice and comfortable MLBB I can wear everyday—like Maybelline’s Creamy Matte Brown Nudes in Nude Nuance!

Every time I have a pimple, it leaves a dark spot on my face and it makes me uncomfortable and lose my confidence. So if I ever had P1,500 to spend on Calyxta, I would buy the CENTELLIAN 24 MADECA CREAM 50ML SEASON III. When I saw this product and researched about it, there were a lot of positive reviews, and it made me want to buy it because it promises to moisturize and protect my skin from harmful skin aggressors, and help reduce my dark spots. For the remaining P120, I’d buy the FACE REPUBLIC SLEEPING BEAUTY FACE MASK WHITENING RICE FORMULA, because face masks are love!

If I were given P1,500 for no reason, you know ya gurl’s going to try to make the most purchases possible without sacrificing quality! That’s why I chose these 6 products; all of them are products I have tried, tested, and loved to bits but haven’t had the chance to stock up on. Firstly, the CosRX Clear Fit Master Patches have saved me countless times for job interviews and presentations, so I definitely need this for beauty emergencies. The Maybelline HyperSharp Power Black Liner has probably been the most consistent thing in my life thus far, so much so that I have the hardest time trying out new eyeliner without feeling like I’m cheating. It’s just so pigmented and smooth to apply that I haven’t even thought about changing liners in years! The Senka Perfect Whip is another favorite of mine because it’s so gentle, but cleanses the face deeply without the drying feeling. I like to spritz on some of my newfound loves (the Painted Cosmetics Rose Water Mist) after cleansing and toning to really lock in hydration, then take either of these two Innisfree masks to give my skin a boost depending on how it’s feeling that day: Oatmeal for rough days, and Green Tea for preventing breakouts!

If I had P1,500, I would most likely splurge it on products that will take care of my problematic areas. I’d buy Lador’s Before Care Keratin PPT for my frizzy and brittle hair. You don’t need to go to salons to have a costly intensive hair treatment! For only P750, you can have your hair treated and prevent further damage. I will also purchase My Scheming Blackhead Removal Activated Carbon Mask Set for my skin’s impurities. There is no need to undergo expensive facials and painful extractions! This peel-off mask clears out all the dirt, and you’ll be surprised with how much it could get! For its price of P750, it already comes with a serum—which promises to tighten and minimize your pores!

I will definitely use my P1,500 to buy my two favorite products from Calyxta. My chapped lips have always been a problem until I tried Balm Dotcom from Glossier. It’s so moisturizing, and it has a sweet fruity scent, too! Now I’m not hesitant to use matte lipsticks anymore! The other product that I swear by is the Gugo Duo Strength Set. With continuous use, I noticed that I my hair got thicker and smoother. Must-haves especially when it’s cold during the holidays!

– Anne Concepcion, Administrative and Technical Assistant

If I have 1500 pesos to spend on Calyxta I will give Glossier Lash Slick a try! I heard it provides all that is needed in a mascara. It gives a natural but more defined look. It helps make my lashes look longer and it’s smudge-free! With all these features that I am looking for in a mascara, it’s worth the price.
