If you are guilty of getting lost in the world of Instagram during your daily commute or before bed time—it’s ok, we totally get it—we’ve got news for you. Since you’re already hooked, we say might as well spend your time on IG scrolling through good content. Whether it is to help you keep up to date with the latest launches, get beauty tips or simply to look at beautifully styled pictures, here are our favourite local beauty influencers you should be following on Instagram.

 

Michelle Sielman, @bubblymichelle

Michelle splits her time between Singapore and Sri Lanka, which is why going through her Instagram feed is a little like going through a resort vacation, with her bright, fresh travel pictures, and product features. You can count on her for honest and thorough reviews and swatches of the latest product launches, so you can make an informed decision in making your own beauty purchases. Now, all we need is some sunscreen and a killer swimsuit, because looking at her feed makes us want to book that tropical getaway too.

 

Emily Loke, @paper_tigress

If seeing the world through rose-tinted glasses is a lot like Emily Loke’s IG feed, we want in. The founder of luxe letterpress company Paper Tiger Press, Emily takes us through her postcard perfect travel destinations, favourite beauty products, and detailed tips on how to achieve a flawless makeup look.

A veteran of the local beauty blogosphere, Leanne Ho’s feed is filled with an endless array of beautiful, colourful flatlays so hypnotising, we dare you to look away. It’s certainly a great way to find out about the latest product launches. Plus, she gives us reviews of several local treatments, be it hair, skin, or body.
