As if a tropical island can’t get hot and humid enough, we’ve been enjoying (not really) a very sweltering summer. It’s virtually summer all year round in Singapore, but this time of the year means more intense summer weather: Heatwaves, blaze and sweat.
As a citizen of eternally hot, humid summers, allow me to recommend 5 summer beauty and makeup essentials, tried and tested!
Been using Bifesta Cleansing Lotion makeup remover for over a year. I rarely say this, but Bifesta is hands down the best I’ve ever used. It is oil free, colouring free, fragrance free, paraben free and alcohol free.
I can’t rave enough about the formula. However they made this, they made it right!
The Catrice Minter Wonderland nail polish is a soft, pretty light blue polish. It has a slight greenish tone indoors, but reads more pale blue in sunlight. It doesn’t strike me as particularly mint-like, but is lovely nonetheless.
Let’s hop into how this formula performs.
Picked up this bright, pretty Innisfree Eco Flower Tint in Camellia as a pick-me-up at the end of a long, arduous semester. As a lip tint, its clean, fresh rose scent sold it immediately!
There was a period where Watsons kept placing the Colour Riche lipsticks line on sale. Back then I was still on my nude lippies kick and searching for the perfect nude lip. Picked up Beige Sienna (BP401) and Peach Dream (C402). Wasn’t blogging yet at that point so I don’t have pristine pictures of these. Please excuse the well-loved lip bullets! 😉
When I saw the Innisfree Long Wear Cushion at their Bugis Junction store, I knew I had to get it. I’ve been testing this for 2 months now. So long? Well a Long Wear Summer Cushion is timeless in forever hot and humid Singapore.
