Philippine ingredients shine in world-class haircare products

MANILA, Philippines — Gone are the days when our lolas’ (grandmothers’) herbal medicines and backyard garden concoctions were only thought of as superstition.

At the recent Watsons “Hair Goals” event, new proudly Filipino products were highlighted alongside internationally-renowned ones like Dove, Cream Silk and L’Oreal. 

These local products harness the power of homegrown produce in providing benefits similar to their foreign counterparts boasting of patented and/or highly sophisticated formulas. These local ingredients include:

Until August, Watsons offers deals such as buy 1, take 1 and discounts of up to 50% off on hair brands like Naturals by Watsons, Hairfix, Hair Treats, L’Oréal, Vitress, Revlon, Head & Shoulders, Palmolive, Moist Diane, Kiss, Hana, Monea, Curls, Gatsby, and Mise en Scene. Also until next month, the same deals apply on hand soap and body wash, and Snake Brand products, while up to 50% off is offered on brands such as Dove, Safeguard, Belo, Oxecure, Hygienix, and Gluta-C.
