“It’s high-shine without being sticky and keeps lips conditioned with hydrating ingredients like natural coconut oil and pomegranate extract. The best part? It subtly plumps your lips so they look naturally luscious. And how cute is that black heart in the centre of the lipstick?”—Smita Desouza, Beauty Editor, CLEO Singapore

“I can’t wait to get my hands on Chanel’s glow-boosting Sublimage L’essence Lumière. It’s launching in February so I can’t reveal too much, just that it promises to reignite skin’s light from within with Anthyllis—a botanical gem that protects and boosts resistance against damaging urban elements, while rejuvenating cellular defense mechanisms so skin can repair and restore itself to its naturally radiant, youthful state. 2019’s looking real bright.”—Dana Koh, Beauty Editor, Harper’s BAZAAR Singapore

“With its candy-inspired design, this lip balm boasts more than a cute packaging. Just one swipe of it coats lips in a luxurious layer to nourish dry and parched lips and instantly leaves lips in a lip-plumping glossy finish. My favourite shade is 207 Raspberry, which tints my lips in a natural berry shade and even lights up my complexion.” —Lim Pei Mei, Associate Beauty Editor, NUYOU Singapore

“Time is never on my side in the morning, which is why I love using cushion foundations as they are really fuss-free. And since I have dull skin, I always opt for one that helps to brighten my complexion. So naturally, this is one product I really can’t wait to get my hands on. Instead of just focusing on brightening and evening out skin tone with a Ceramic Complex, this cushion foundation is made with hyaluronic acid and glycerine to keep my skin looking fresh, hydrated and soft for a reported eight hours. As it has a water-in-oil emulsion infused in the formula, this has a silky texture that glides easily onto the skin for a flawless finish.”—Sofia Kim, Beauty Writer, Female Singapore

“When Lancôme launched the Absolue creams in November 2018, there were two textures available, a soft cream and a rich cream, and I fell in love with the latter instantly. Even though it is super nourishing, it doesn’t feel greasy at all and is easily absorbed into the skin. Because of it, I can’t wait to get my hands on the Absolue Eye Cream. Formulated with Lancôme’s exclusive rose-derived ingredients, this silky eye cream helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, tightens the skin around the eyes and even helps to depuff. Plus, I just love its soothing rose scent!”—Dion Tang, Senior Writer, ICON Singapore
