If you’re a fan of the Miss Dior fragrance, you’ll want to pay attention to this limited-edition launch; the scent now comes in a super cute dog-shaped vessel (taking inspiration from Christian Dior’s favourite dog). Over at Fenty Skin, the brand has joined the skin barrier race with a new lip oil that’s all about strengthening things from within. More details below.
If you’re looking for a quick no-makeup makeup look, Burberry Beauty’s universal primer will do the trick. The Beyond Radiance Glow Primer ($82) acts as an all-in-one primer and highlighter, with 24-hour hydration. The water-based formula ensures a lightweight feel once applied – either by itself or mixed with foundation to act as a makeup base.
Formulated with anti-oxidant ingredients like rosa Damascena and Darjeeling tea leaf extract, the Beyond Radiance Glow can also be used as a highlighter to make your skin luminescent. The primer is offered in shade Bare Glow, which is universally flattering on different skin tones, as well as skin types.
Burberry Beyond Radiance is available at www.burberry.com and BHG Bugis Junction
Sunscreen (as the name implies) is usually only used for protection against the sun. But Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Sunscreen SPF50 ($54) combines the best of sunscreen with the best of skincare. On top of being a lightweight sunscreen, its niacinamide (Vitamin B3) ingredient helps reduce hyperpigmentation while watermelon extract hydrates the skin. This, combined with chemical filters in the formula for UV protection, create a sunscreen that protects and targets skin concerns.

Fans of Christian Louboutin Beauty now have more options; the brand has just launched its first complexion product in the form of the new Teint Fetiche Le Cushion. A medium to high coverage foundation, the product ($92 for the refill and $108 for the case) is available in five shades: neutral, cool or warm adapted for light to medium skin tones.
It’s said to provide up to 12 hours of coverage with a satin finish, and better yet, the foundation comes with an in-built SPF 30 protection to boost coverage against ultraviolet rays (though you should still wear a proper sunscreen underneath for true protection).
The foundation also contains vitamins B3 (aka niacinamide), B5, E and sodium hyaluronate for added skin benefits, as well as diamond powder to create a radiant glow. Each compact comes with an embroidered Christian Louboutin coat of arms on the cover and is refillable.
The Teint Fétiche Le Cushion is available at Tangs at Tang Plaza and www.tangs.com
The late Christian Dior was famously a dog man. He had a beloved pooch by the name of Bobby – for which he named many things within the Dior universe after. Bobby has been called upon again by the Maison as the emblem for the latest collectable edition of the Miss Dior fragrance bottle which boasts a limited run of only 3,200 pieces worldwide.
The popular scent was first launched in 1947 and Monsieur Dior subsequently launched a special edition of the Miss Dior fragrance in a Bobby-shaped bottle as a gift to clients in 1952. Last year saw Dior re-issuing the Bobby bottle in an updated design. The newest edition sees the Bobby bottle outfitted with a bow that comes with a hand-embroidered floral motif, crafted by Dior’s couture atelier, while the intricately carved glass bottle itself takes at least 15 hours to create.
The Bobby Miss Dior EDP 2022 bottle ($1,200 for 90ml) will be available exclusively at Dior Beauty boutiques
Products geared towards strengthening one’s skin barrier have been on the uptick in recent months, but they’re all largely geared towards the face in general. Fenty Skin’s newest launch continues in that vein but zooms in onto a commonly overlooked area: one’s lips.
Its new Cherry Treat Conditioning + Strengthening Lip Oil ($37) features a triple cherry complex (sweet cherry seed oil, Barbados cherry and wild cherry extracts) to help to nourish and condition the lips, while jojoba seed and rosehip fruit oils help to lock in moisture and soothe.
The Fenty Skin Cherry Treat Conditioning + Strengthening Lip Oil is now available at www.sephora.sg and in Sephora stores
