These are the beauty editors' must-have products for the festive season
Verb Sea Texture Cream, $24
image

“My hair falls flat easily so creating texture is important for me when heading out for parties. I like this texturising cream because it gives my hair volume and texture without any stiffness so I can easily reshape it or rough it up further any time throughout the night. It doesn’t leave my hair dry either as it contains proteins and panthenol, and I don’t have to worry about UV damage cos it has UV filters.” —Joyce Cheo, Senior Content Specialist (Beauty), SPH Magazines

Cover FX Glam & Glow Liquid Lights Vault, $342 for 7 x 15ml
image

“Nothing says ‘festive’ more than sparkly highlighters and I love the Cover FX Glitter and Custom Enhancer drops cause they’re so versatile. You can just add them in your foundation or use them on their own to really get the glow on.”—Arissa Ha, Senior Beauty Writer, Singapore Women’s Weekly

NARS Climax Mascara, $42
image

“There’s nothing more glamorous and party-perfect than smouldering eyes and an impeccable red lip. Which is why I always count on NARS’ latest mascara for thicker, longer lashes. It has a unique formula that not only amplifies each and every lash but also separates and defines them. The special applicator brush also ensures zero clumping so you can easily layer on more product. And most importantly, it clings onto lashes and doesn’t smudge or melt, making it perfect for party-hopping all night long.” —Dion Tang, Senior Writer, ICON Singapore

Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray, $48
image

“When it comes to get-togethers and festive parties, I tend to have my makeup on for more than 12 hours, and of course, I need a good setting spray so my makeup will still look #onpoint by the end of the night. This has a unique formula that helps to lower down the skin’s temperature to prolong makeup wear and I like to spray it on twice – once before blending my foundation and after I’m done with my entire makeup look.” — Sofia Kim, Beauty Writer, Female Singapore

Jo Malone London Tropical Cherimoya Cologne, $148
image

“I find its pink and lime green packaging super festive! It has an amazing fruity scent and a hint of warmth and creaminess that reminds me of tropical holidays. I love that it’s not overpowering at all, especially since it’s still humid here in Singapore. Perfect for outdoor get-togethers like barbecues or even rooftop cocktails.”—Chua Shi Min, Online Writer, Nuyou Singapore

SK-II Facial Treatment Masks, $127 for 6 pieces
image

“Whenever my skin needs some TLC, I’ll reach for my SK-II Facial Treatment Masks. This could be during/after a long flight or before/after a long night. The sheet is slightly thicker material, but this helps lock in all the goodness of the essence and you’re left with plumper, brighter skin. You need very little base on skin that’s prepped with a mask, and it just glides on easily to give you a my-skin-but-better look. I like to chill mine before I use them so it soothes any inflammation and puffiness.”—Smita Desouza, Beauty Editor, CLEO Singapore

Dior Midnight Wish Rouge Blush in 001 Midnight Wish, $80
image

“I’m all about luminous skin so for parties, I amp up the glow with this golden highlighter. Its micro-fine formula dusts on seamlessly without streaking or any distracting glitter particles, giving you pops of velvety radiance that’s slightly on the warm side for a major fresh-from-a-holiday glow.” —Dana Koh, Beauty Editor, Harper’s BAZAAR Singapore

Sunday Riley Good Genes, $148 For 30ml
image

“I must have a dose of this skin refining serum the night before any big event. It makes everything about my skin better – smoother texture, smaller pores, brighter skin tone – I just look more well-rested and naturally glowy. Definitely a pre-party essential for me to look my best.” – Melissa Chew, associate beauty editor, Her World Online
