Ayn Bernos to launch beauty product
By Nidz Godino
“So proud to be releasing these soft matte moisturizing lipsticks with our amazing team after a year of working on it…formula is light and buildable, and we chose these six shades specifically so you always have something to suit you,” former Miss Universe Philippines contestant Ayn Bernos is launching a new beauty brand with her fellow TikTok creators.
Kayu Beauty, promises to offer “products inspired by you,” will be made available to the public starting February 19.
Its first collection is called the Kayu Kiss, includes moisturizing lipsticks in six shades to suit different skin tones.
“It’s like a capsule wardrobe effortless, flattering, dependable only they’re gorgeous lippies,” she added in her post, where she tagged the other people behind Kayu makeup artist Rica Salomon, graphic designer Kai Javier, model Landamme Vivas, and travel enthusiast JR Rodriguez.
In a previous TikTok video, Ayn said Kayu is short for “kayumanggi,” or the Filipino word for brown.
She said they decided to create makeup line specifically for morenas after observing that they tend to be “an afterthought” in many beauty campaigns.
“So when we created the makeup brand, we wanted to make sure na we have the space that we’ve always wanted,” Ayn said “now, that doesn’t mean that it’s exclusive to morenas or anything like that… we advocate for everyone.”
