ST reviews products worth a spot in your shopping cart, like Rare Beauty's blush and the Dyson Airstrait.
SINGAPORE – In this new column on the first Friday of the month, The Straits Times reviews recent beauty launches – from skincare and make-up to haircare and fragrance – worth a spot in your shopping cart.internet’s current favourite blush has become mine too. Like a blush-meets-highlighter hybrid, this baked formula packs a two-in-one punch, imbuing cheeks with colour and a gorgeous lit-from-within glow.
It has become a new go-to for me – providing ample yet lightweight coverage that stays in the humidity. The cushiony, fat tip applicator sits perfectly in the hollows of my under-eyes, depositing the right amount of product each time. The shade Rosy, in particular, has drawn comparisons online with Charlotte Tilbury’s viral Beauty Light Wand in Pinkgasm. For a blush that is less pink, Peachy is a good alternative.
The first day I test-drive it, I elicit aggressive sniffing from the cabbie ferrying me to my destination – who whips around in his seat a few times before finally asking me what perfume I am wearing. It lasts my entire seven-hour day out, settling into skin and mingling with the day’s sweat in the best way possible.K-beauty lip tints are my current obsession, and this one from Amuse has become a purse staple.
First is the Glint Stick Highlighter, which is available in three versatile shades and costs a wallet-friendly $26 each. What I love most is its semi-sheer formula with tiny pearl particles that give a beautiful glass-skin effect. I have tried many highlighters from big American brands, but this one stands out for its subtlety, especially on Asian skin tones, making it perfect even for day use.
With six super-pigmented nude shades and a creamy texture that feels like butter on the lips, this long-lasting lip mousse is fab.
