This month, Origins is expanding its popular mushroom-infused range with an on-the-go hydrating mist that is superfine and holds more than seven times its water weight to leave skin feeling moisturised and refreshed. The mist can be used on bare skin or over makeup and has a soothing scent that combines olibanum, certified organic geranium, orange, mandarin, patchouli and lavender. What’s more, the bottle and packaging are recyclable – the carton is made using FSC-certified wood fibre, which means for every tree harvested, new trees are planted.

If you have been following the K-beauty site Ksisters, you may have seen the Jung Beauty two-step steaming hair spa set before. Due to popular demand, the highly-raved leave-in keratin hair mask from the set is now sold separately in a tube.

The cult Korean hair serum brand that landed on our shores a year ago has updated an ingredient used in its hair serums: it has replaced Argan Oil with a premium Golden Moroccan Argan Oil which promises to absorb moisture faster.

The French skincare brand has upgraded eight face cleansers and toning lotions, and introduced two new toning lotions that include ingredients from their private farm located in the French Alps called “Domaine Clarins“. These natural herbs harvested from Clarins’ private farm include yellow gentian, lemon malm, organic soapwort, and plant-based squalene. When shopping at Clarins, watch out for products labelled with the “Domaine Clarins” symbol as this mean that the item contains ingredients from plants that Clarins had grown itself.

The single-dose mask softens and soothes sensitive skin with oat extract, and contains pre- and probiotics to balance the skin microbiome. Add water into the tub, stir and apply. Peel off after 10 minutes and rinse with water.

The big trend this season is shiny, hydrating lipsticks, and this one is a powerhouse of ceramides, hyaluronic acid and triglycerides to plump the lips and prevent them from drying out under a mask. The high-shine finish helps define your pout too. Comes in 10 shades.

This one-shade-fits-all highlighter glides on smoothly and blends seamlessly to give skin any kind of glow, from subtle to ultra-liquid. The custom-patterned press ensures that your brush picks up the perfect amount – so one sweep is all you need.

The no-rinse Cleansing Treatment takes off pollution, makeup, sunscreen and impurities; repairs skin barrier function; and balances the skin microbiome with inulin, a prebiotic. Saturate a cotton pad with the product, swipe all over the face, and follow with toner or essence.

The lightweight eye cream cum concealer soothes, depuffs, hydrates and brightens the eye area, while reducing the look of fine lines and wrinkles, so you look like you had great sleep. The limited-edition set is an online exclusive at Sephora.sg.

The mist is an alcohol-based spray that purifies and cleans your hands on the go, scented with Aesop’s fabulous herbal-woody- citrus Resurrection blend. Go one step further and stow all your Aesop hand- care (the Hand Mist, Rinse-free Hand Wash and Hand Balm) in the Adventurer Roll-up, which keeps everything in one place.
