Filipino Dessert-Inspired Cosmetics

Huda Beauty Launches an Ube-Inspired Setting Powder

Huda Beauty's newest makeup line pays homage to the popular Filipino dessert, Ube, with its playful purple color. This limited edition release highlights a new setting powder, 'Ube Birthday Cake,' which adopts the same premium formula that Huda Beauty is known for while transforming the iconic product using a shade that is completely unique and distinct. The line also includes a blush and a lip gloss. Huda also mentioned that many of her team members are Filipino, making this product personal to not only her, but also to her peers.

The Huda Beauty 'Ube Birthday Cake Easy Bake' Setting Powder, 'Ube Cream Blush Filter' and the 'Uuu-Baby Faux Filter' will launch on January 9 through Sephora and the Huda Beauty website.
