We all can do with some pampering. Do we really need a reason to purchase that newly-released luxurious eye cream? What about that amazing cellulite gel cream that promises to minimise those pesky dimples? Be spoilt for choice this month with some of the biggest beauty brands releasing even more amazing products that will fit comfortably into different budgets!
Brighten and make it wrinkle-free
With all that work piling on at this time of the year, most of us are left super exhausted and our skin suffers from the brunt of all that stress. We age faster as the stress increases and it really shows on our faces.
Sulwhasoo, a holistic beauty brand with Asian philosophy, has just released a new generation of its best-selling premium anti-aging solution, the Sulwhasoo TimeTreasure Line. Fortified with red pine, which is known in the medicinal herbal arena for its anti-ageing benefits, the new formula is further enhanced to ensure more potent efficacies.
We are particularly excited about the TimeTreasure Renovating Eye Cream EX (SGD338), which helps to brighten and reduce the appearance of wrinkles under the eye area. Through the usage of the Red Pine Capsule Technology, delivery of active ingredients into the skin is further enhanced, ensuring fast and effortless absorption, making skin look firmer, more quickly.
The entire line is available island-wide from September 2015.
Care for your peepers
Another way to ensure youthful-looking eyes is the Crabtree and Evelyn Damask Rose Restoring Eye Cream. This eye cream contains the “everlasting” rose of Jericho that is known for its skin-nourishing benefits. Massage the under eye area using the metal applicator that’s smartly built with the product and be greeted with a cooling sensation that is oh-so-pleasing, and relieve puffiness. The hyaluronic acid that is released from the applicator increases moisture and improves skin’s smoothness.
This product retails at SGD50 and will be available from 24 September 2015 onwards at all Crabtree & Evelyn boutiques.
Tried and tested for face and body
With the haze in season, it’s a good time for you to get that swimsuit body ready for when the dust clears. Mary Kay has released a TimeWise Body Smooth-Action Cellulite Gel Cream as well as a TimeWise Miracle Set for you to give your body and face some lovin’.
The Mary Kay Cellulite Gel cream promises to minimise the appearance of stubborn cellulite, recapturing your skin’s youthful appearance.
Hello swimsuit-ready body!
This gel cream is priced at SGD90 for 177ml.
Mary Kay’s newly-released TimeWise Miracle Set is a premium collection that holds four age-fighting products that is suitable for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin (yes, you heard us correctly!) The set contains a cleanser, night solution, moisturiser and day solution with SPF 25 (two steps in one) and is priced at SGD252.
Pucker up with vivid colours
Korean beauty products never go out of style.
Especially not Innisfree, a popular Korean brand that has taken our shores by storm ever since it found itself on our little island. This month, the brand is releasing its latest lip range, the Vivid Tint Rouge, which promises long-lasting colour that is light and moisturising (read: camellia oil and shea butter) on the lips. (Do we hear a collective sigh of relief from all you lazy beauty loving people out there?)
Best part of it all? This range has 10 beautiful, luscious shades that will, for sure, add a pop of colour to whatever you’re wearing on that day.
Innisfree’s Vivid Tint Rouge retails for SGD16 and is available in stores from 1 October 2015
Coverage so light, you won’t even know it’s there
Thick heavy foundations are all so passé. M.A.C’s latest release is a studio watertight foundation with SPF30. This foundation has an elastic gel serum formula that simply rolls over your skin, blurring imperfections such as pores and fine lines. The addition of Moisture Fusion Complex provides immediate and all-day hydration leaving skin feeling soft, supple and definitely well-quenched.
The M.A.C Cosmetics Studio Waterweight Foundation is available in 23 shades from 22 September 2015 at all M.A.C counters and is priced at SGD62.
An all-time favourite that gets better
Laneige’s best-selling BB cushion has taken the industry by storm but they’re not on to rest on their laurels. Most recently, they’ve introduced a product to add to their range of BB cushion – the BB Cushion Anti-Aging SPF 50+, featuring the powerful anti-aging solution Dynamic Collagen that markedly improves skin elasticity, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Count on Laneige’s newly-released BB cushion, which is water- and sweat-resistant (perfect for the weather here), to perk up your fatigued skin and turn the dream of having a glowing complexion into reality. You’ll also see your skin looking more plumped and firm with the help of this product too.
This product is available from 3 September 2015 in seven shades at all Laneige boutiques and counters, retailing at SGD62.
Natural Perfection
Our cameras are getting better and sharper. Photographers are happy with the technological advancement, but how about those of us who are armed with cameras all the time, and who have to be ready for selfies faster than you can say “cheese”?
Make this part of your makeup routine and the slightest sign of redness and imperfections will be corrected, even under the ever unforgiving camera lens. This product is designed especially for perfect-looking complexion before high-definition cameras. It promises to leave your skin looking unified, with perfect texture, leaving behind an incredibly natural and luminous result.
The Make Up Forever Ultra HD foundation retails at SGD72 and is available in a whooping 35 shades, all available at the Make Up For Ever Pro Loft. Sephora stores also carry the product, but only limited shades.
