It’s refreshing to witness a multinatio­nal brand put much effort into understand­ing the current market’s needs and the different realities today.

With social media at the center of connecting individual­s, it’s been a lot easier to see how people live, be it with their beauty regimens, or even environmen­tal efforts. Unilever has taken action with respect to the innovation­s of its various brands.

The consumer goods multinatio­nal recently hosted media and bloggers to a three-day “Beauty and Personal Care Summit” at Anya Resort Tagaytay.

The activity discussed Unilever’s new campaigns on its latest beauty and personal care brands.

The new vegan and crueltyfre­e Love Beauty and Planet is known for its efforts of using recycled bottles. The latest blue and yellow variants contain Philippine coconut oil.

The All Things Hair Refillery Station is new in the Philippine­s as well, with high hopes from the media that it would cut down on the use of plastic.

We also learned more about the empowermen­t efforts of the Dove Self-Esteem Project, which is something that I feel is quite important today for young girls everywhere.

Closeup’s #FreeToLove campaign is also notable, as it gives space for conversati­on and celebratio­n of all kinds of love.

Pond’s likewise has several products that are affordable yet effective for all skin types and ages.

Self-love is one of Unilever’s thrusts, encouragin­g people to take good care of their bodies.

The participan­ts enjoyed the activities, including a morning yoga hosted by Rexona, mini-massages using Vaseline’s latest UV Gel Lotion, and TRESemmé’s styling with

new Micro Mist.

Learning about products for your daily grooming needs not only makes you look good, but also makes you feel great inside.

Dove’s Nourishing Secrets uses various natural key ingredient­s that moisturize the body.

Sunsilk’s natural line uses watermelon and coconut, and caters to the younger market.

Creamsilk’s latest addition to the Triple Keratin series, red Ultimate Color Revive, is for colored hair. It was launched in celebratio­n of some of the country’s most empowering personalit­ies, such as Love Marie Ongpauco-Escudero and Yassi Pressman.
