Sisley’s premium skincare range Supremÿa launches two night treatments designed to nourish and regenerate the skin as you sleep. Perfect for Singapore weather is the Supremÿa at Night The Supreme Anti Aging Skin Care, while those who might prefer a heavier texture or who suffer from extremely dry skin might prefer The Supreme Anti-Aging Cream. Both feature cutting-edge technology of the Fundamental Regeneration Complex which uses powerful, natural ingredients to regenerate cell processes, detoxify the cells and encourage them to remove waste more efficiently, and give cells time to repair themselves from the damages of the day before duplicating. Long term results include improved firmness, better radiance and increased hydration.
Sisley’s Supremÿa at Night The Supreme Anti Aging Skin Care launches today at $930 for 50ml and is available on their website and in-stores at Sisley Paris stores islandwide
Get dewy, glass-like, fresh skin with this new, bouncy gel-cream formula from Charlotte Tilbury. This new cream packs it all in with powerful ingredients such as niacinamide that balances skin and reduces the appearance of pores, a biopeptide complex that improves the appearance of the skin’s tone and texture and the brand’s new waterlocking fusion technology, a blend of hydrating ingredients that trains the skin barrier to retain more moisture and delivers some 100 hours of hydration with every application. It targets skin issues like redness and fine lines to reduce the appearance of dehydration so that skin looks healthier, more finely contoured and youthful.

Paula’s Choice’s first retinoid formula has landed, promising prescription-like potency to improve fine lines, discolouration and firmness with just one week of application. It does this with a potent combination of retinoid and niacinamide which together work to reduce the appearance of fine lines, while smoothing and firming the skin and evening out skin tone. It also contains hexylresorcinol, an antioxidant that interrupts the triggers of discolouration and supports healthy collagen production. It also works together with niacinamide to improve dullness and the signs of sun damage. The serum has a light, hydrating texture that is suitable for all skin types.

Get a natural, radiant, no-makeup makeup look all day long with Chanel’s updated formula for their Les Beiges sheer powder.

Newly added to the brand’s famed Abeille Royale line, the Honey Treatment Day and Night creams focus on youth-repairing active ingredients designed to penetrate and take hold of the heart of the skin’s epidermis layer. This creates a bandage-like effect on the cells making them more resilient against ageing. For the day cream, the key ingredient is the Ouessant honey from an island in the Iroise Sea that is rich in polyphenols and amino acids. It has an immediate shaping and strengthening effect on the skin that lasts all day. For the night cream, Ikaria honey from a volcanic island is added which contains a high concentration of minerals that refresh the skin in the night.
Guerlain’s Abeille Royale Honey Treatment Day and Night Creams ($243 and $279 respectively) are available at all Guerlain stores
