Skin Saver
It’s not easy to find an effective yet gentle cleanser that soothes dry, irritated or sensitive skin, so we’re excited about this new product from Bioderma. An oil- based cleanser that provides long-lasting hydration, it also contains vitamins C and E to protect the skin against free radicals. $39.90.
Clever Compact
You can now pack smart and light with this convenient two-in-one Perfect Brows & Eyes Palette from Clarins. Containing a complete kit with mirror to define and shape both the brows and the lids, this nifty set means fast and easy on-the-go touch-ups, wherever, whenever! $60.
Beauty Buzz
Allies of Skin, a local skincare brand, has been making waves for its concentrated and effective formulas. The Molecular Saviour Toner Mist, a soothing aloe and rose water-based spray, is a personal favourite – it’s a godsend for dry, dull or acne-prone skin! The travel-friendly size adds bonus points, too. $53, available at alliesofskin.com.
Youthful Glow
Cult brand IT Cosmetics has launched a new face palette, the Je Ne Sais Quoi Complexion Perfection. Featuring four talc-free powder formulas – matte bronzer, luminiser, blush and pressed powder – this all- in- one stunner delivers natural-looking contours and a youthful glow. $68.
Perfect Pout
Wake up to smoother, suppler lips with new flavours from Laneige’s popular Lip Sleeping Mask line: apple lime, grapefruit and vanilla. Formulated with the powerful Moisture Wrap found in its Water Sleeping Mask, plus the vitamin C-rich Berry Mix Complex, this mask gently erases dry, flaky skin overnight. $27.
We’re eyeing… Dynamic Duo
On top of our lust list is Swiss luxury brand La Prairie’s new Anti-aging Line Interception Power Duo, which promises to eliminate wrinkles and fine lines. The pump bottle carries two separate formulas – for day and for night – and its anti- leakage locking mechanism promises worryfree travel. This cream comes with a price tag, though – it will set you back $570! … the newly launched Dior Addict lip tattoos, created by Peter Philips, creative and image director of Christian Dior makeup. The lightweight, long-wearing formula means fuss-free application and touch-ups, and it comes in six stunning shades. $46.
