The latest beauty must-haves to keep you radiant from top to toe.

SUNSCREEN RENOVATION

Upgrade your sun protection with these defenders that go beyond guarding against UV rays.

Clockwise from top:

S3 Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50 PA+++, $73.83, IDS Skincare

This sunscreen from IDS Skincare utilises a patented zinc oxide technology to help protect skin from UV damage while delivering antioxidant and anti-pollution benefits. It’s also lightly tinted—perfect for days when you want to go makeup-free.

Pure Shots Airthin UV Defender, $92, YSL Beauté

Boasting a lightweight texture you can barely feel on skin, this defends against urban aggressors such as dust and pollution as well. Niacinamide and citrus peel extract in the formula also work on improving overall tone and texture.

Morning Glow, $58, Sigi Skin

Physical sunscreens usually leave a white cast on skin, but not this one. Affording broad-spectrum UV protection, this air-whipped formula also hydrates and cares for skin with niacinamide as well as nourishing açaí and avocado extracts.

UV Wise Brightening Multi Protector in Milky Tone Up, $106, Sulwhasoo

Enriched with the brand’s proprietary Plantia Protecting Complex and Snowise Formula, this shields skin from a range of harmful environmental stimuli, from ultra-fine dust to cigarette smoke and blue light, while soothing and brightening skin. Bonus: Its non-sticky milky texture and matte finish.

A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME

There’s nothing like the scent of roses to ease tension and lift the spirits—and how better to do that than by incorporating the floral note into your daily skincare routine? Start with your usual cleanser and toner, but follow up with Dior’s Dior Prestige Micro-Huile de Rose Advanced Serum, a reparative, anti-ageing serum in which the Rose de Granville—from flower and stem right down to the sap—plays a starring role. Next, reach for the Rose Face Mask from Fresh, which is infused with pure rosewater and a generous amount of rose petals to soothe, hydrate and tone skin. Round off with a spritz of the Rose Prick EDP from Tom Ford Beauty.

PAINT THE TOWN RED

Show some love to your lips with the Losec Summa Elixir Golden Lipstick from su:m37°, which delivers intense colour as well as skincare benefits. The Skin-Fit Oil technology helps pigments adhere to lips for longer while simultaneously moisturising them. Meanwhile, gold, Ferm-Theriaca and Cytosis work on minimising visible signs of ageing and improving skin’s ability to repair itself.
