If you’re looking for the freshest beauty releases on the market to amp up your skincare regime or boost your makeup game, we’ve picked out 12 such products for you. With everything from new additions to Hourglass’s Veil line, to Fenty Beauty’s vibrant and versatile Cheeks Out cream blushes, you know that it’s time to get your credit card ready.

Rose Deep Hydration Oil-Infused Serum

Loyal fans of Fresh’s Rose skincare line, good news. The brand’s newest release is a lightweight oil-in-serum hybrid perfect for all skin types, leaving it dewy, hydrated, and refreshed without any stickiness or residue. Despite its lightweight, it penetrates the skin layers to moisturise skin that has been dried out from constant exposure to air-conditioning.

Retails on Sephora for SGD95 from 26 May, at fresh boutiques islandwide (ION B3-46 and Raffles City 01-43, JEM Beauty Kitchen 02-33), Takashimaya, and Sephora stores from 18 June.

Clarins Body Partner Stretch Mark Expert

Stretch marks are a common problem among many mothers and mothers-to-be and Clarins is one of the most popular brands many women turn to for solutions. In a convenient and hygienic pump tube, this pregnant women-approved formula is created through extensive research in Clarins Laboratories with minimal, naturally derived ingredients so it’s safe for you and your skin, while effectively targeting your stretch mark concerns.

Retails for SGD98 on Clarins’ site, and at all Clarins boutiques and counters subsequently.

Fenty Beauty Cheeks Out Freestyle Cream Blush and Bronzer

Like its cheeky name, Fenty Beauty’s newest releases are available in 10 vibrant blush shades (including a daring lilac!) and seven inclusive bronzer shades. Its creamy formula can be blended on or under the apples of the cheeks as well as for a quick flush of lively colour – something we especially need now that we’re spending a lot of time indoors. Lightweight and sweat-resistant, these products are going to be your favourites during and after the Circuit Breaker.

Both the blush (SGD33) and the bronzer (SGD50) on Sephora.

Lucido-L Argan Rich Oil

Convenience is always a plus in beauty – if you don’t have time for the 10-step Korean haircare routine, try Lucido-L’s two-step solution instead! Consisting of an essence and a sheer gloss component, these can be used separately or together for a luxurious and glossy mane by taming and smoothing frizzy hair. There’s no better time than when you’re staying home more to care for your hair – this is definitely a pampering treat your tresses needs.

Available at major drugstores like Guardian at SGD16.90.

Hourglass Veil Eye Primer and Soft Focus Setting Spray

Hourglass’ Veil Primer is certainly one of the holy grails much raved about by beauty enthusiasts, so you can expect nothing less than its newly launched Veil Eye Primer (SGD48). This is a luxurious upgrade with vitamin E and antioxidants to care for your eye area and eliminate dryness and caking, while still amplifying eyeshadow colour and longevity.

They’ve also added the Soft Focus Setting Spray (SGD80) to the line. This acts as a beauty filter on your face all day, setting makeup for up to 24 hours while blurring imperfections and hydrating skin.

Both retail on Sephora and TANGS.

Sisley Black Rose Eye Contour Fluid

A collaboration between Sisley and renowned French facialist Marie Depoulain, the Black Rose Eye Contour Fluid contains black rose and vitamin E to refine and smooth skin to banish wrinkles and tighten skin. Pair it with Depoulain’s special massage techniques for more youthful and bright-looking eye contours.

Caudalie Vinoperfect Dark Spot Correcting Moisturiser

A Caudalie bestseller with one sold every 30 seconds globally, this hydrating day cream is inspired by the traditional practice of rubbing grapevine sap on the hands and face to protect and lighten dark spots. This moisturiser brightens the skin and reduces dark spots with potent active ingredients that work in synergy like niacinamide, white peony, and viniferne, so you can have flawless and radiant skin too!

Retails at Sephora for SGD72.

AHC Peony Bright line

If you’ve been doing skincare religiously but still see no improvement, the main culprit may be the blue light emitting from your electronic devices! Counter the harmful effects with AHC’s newest Peony Bright line, which protects the skin from the environment while hydrating and brightening it for the flawless, illuminated visage of your dreams.

The line includes a lightweight Luminous Serum (SGD48) for dull and dry skin, Spot Corrector (SGD42) to reduce dark spots and freckles, as well as a Deep Clearing Foam (SGD30) and Clearing Toner (SGD42) that removes residue and extracts impurities. Start off your day routine with their Toning Up Cream (SGD55), a light day moisturiser that hydrates, and brings back the natural radiance of your skin. These are available on Shopee.

TOM FORD Rose Prick Lip Colours

Inspired by the TOM FORD Private Blend Rose Prick Eau de Parfum, the luxury brand is back with two new lip colours, Casablanca and Indian Rose, in a chic, limited-edition Rose Prick packaging. Both colours are a warm, pinky nude tone with a satin finish – the perfect everyday lipstick for any occasion.

Christian Louboutin LoubiLooks

A unique collaboration between Christian Louboutin Beauty and makeup artist Isamaya Ffrench debuts six edgy and daring looks that embodies the spirit of the fashion house. Each look is inspired by Christian Louboutin’s iconic shoe models like the elegant Pigalle, represented by a bold lip in Silky Satin Lusita, and nails in a chic burgundy, Delicotte, or the trendsetting Hot Chick with a bright fuchsia lip in Velvet Matte Bengali and nails in pale pink Iriclare.
