Best Beauty Buys is The Singapore Women’s Weekly’s annual round up of the best and most effective products currently on the shelves. This year, we spotlight the skincare and makeup needs of busy mums who juggle children and demanding jobs who want to look and feel good doing it. The products were road-tested by a group of such multi-tasking women, and these are their picks.
If you’ve ever wondered how Koreans get their enviable dewy, glass skin mien, the answer is almost always: hydration. In fact, research has suggested that Asian skin is more “leaky” and loses more hydration to transepidermal water loss than other ethnicities. As such, we should pay greater attention to supplementing our skincare routines with hydrating products and ingredients to help boost the water content of our skin. Well-hydrated skin also appears more plump and plush with less visible fine lines and wrinkles and is less likely to feel dry, dull, rough and itchy. So what are you waiting for? Use these hydrating serums to flood your skin with hydration and achieve glass skin too.
