For years, I struggled with a dry, irritated scalp. After endless bleaching, dyeing, and poor shampoo choices, I was constantly battling those pesky white flakes on my hair, clothes, and pillows.

With weak, thinning hair from scalp issues, my hair became a major insecurity — when it should enhance my appearance instead! Determined to boost my confidence, I decided to prioritise my hair.

After some research through Google Reviews and finding a great promo (which you can book right here!), I scheduled an appointment at one of Singapore’s top hair and scalp treatment centres — TK TrichoKare.

I actually felt nervous walking into the centre but the calming ambiance and friendly staff quickly put me at ease. In the private consultation room, I filled out a questionnaire to help the experts assess my lifestyle, diet, hair condition, and even my shampoo choice!

Next up was the Pre-Treatment Hair & Scalp Scan Analysis, during which the consultant used a Tricho-Scan lens to magnify my scalp up to 200 times. The results? Let’s just say it wasn’t looking good.

My scalp showed a buildup of flaky dandruff, redness, irritation, and sensitivity, all thanks to extreme dryness and constant dandruff buildup.

Based on the results, the consultant recommended their Scalp Purifying Therapy, and they wasted no time getting started.

I relaxed in a sleek, salon-style chair while sipping on a refreshing cup of apple tea as they prepared for the treatment.

A hair and scalp specialist applied TrichoKare’s Customised European Herbal Scalp Masque, tailored to my scalp. Made from premium herbs, it detoxed my scalp, cleared impurities, and removed excess sebum.

Next, an essence was misted onto my scalp for deep penetration and optimal hydration.

Afterwards was my favourite part: the wash! The specialist used their best-selling Nourishing Hair Bath (shampoo) and CompleteKare mask (conditioner), before finishing off with a refreshing scalp massage.

Finally, my hair was blow-dried before they used Photodynamic Therapy, featuring a sleek infrared light that promotes hair regeneration and targets specific scalp areas, speeding up the healing process. By this time, my hair and scalp were already feeling super soft, light, and clean.

During the Post-Treatment Scalp Scan Analysis, I was pleasantly surprised to see that my scalp was visibly less red and all the dandruff revealed in the magnified scan had disappeared.

After the treatment, my scalp felt cleansed and rejuvenated, with noticeable hydration and minimal dryness. The consultant recommended regular treatments and the right shampoo for long-term maintenance and optimal scalp health.

And that’s not all – in celebration of their 20th Anniversary, their Award-Winning Scalp Purifying Therapy is now at an exclusive S$48 nett only for CG readers! Be quick as this enticing offer will only last from now till 31 October 2024!

I also received a Nourishing Hair Bath (shampoo) and CompleteKare Mask (conditioner) to take home, as recommended by their friendly consultant. All of this, valued at S$556, for just S$48!

The post With just one single S$48 treatment, I completely transformed my super flaky and inflamed scalp which made me insecure about my hair for years appeared first on Confirm Good.

I’m sure many of us can relate to this, especially with the amount of great beauty product recommendations from beauty influencers and experts that we get everyday. 

So, what do you do when you want a refill of your favourite blush or lip tint without breaking the bank? 

To help you achieve your daily glam, here are 10 affordable viral high-end luxury makeup dupes that you can get in Singapore.

1. Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk vs. Revlon Super Lustrous in Rose Velvet

If you haven’t heard of Charlotte Tilbury’s Matte Revolution Lipstick (S$55) — specifically in the shade Pillow Talk, then you’re missing out. 

You may have seen it on a couple of celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow and Amy Adams. 

It’s universally flattering and the soft, rosy and dusty nude lip colour goes well on all skin tones and makeup looks.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick (S$15.44) in the shade Rose Velvet is one of the more budget-friendly makeup dupes that looks similar to Charlotte Tilbury. 

The formula and feel of the lipstick feels silky smooth yet moisturising (all while still being beautifully matte). It’s definitely a great alternative if you’re looking for something more affordable.

Available here.

2. Benefit Benetint vs. Etude House Dear Darling Water Tint 

Lip tints are extremely popular in the beauty world and I can certainly see why — it’s hydrating like a lip balm, but with a rich pigment and long-lasting hue. 

That’s why Benefit’s Benetint (S$45) is the holy grail product for the trending “clean girl” look — plus you can use it to stain both your lips and your cheeks for a healthy and natural flush.

For those who are looking for economical dupes for Benefit’s bestseller, Etude House’s Dear Darling Water Tint (S$8.40) costs five times less. 

Smudge-proof, quick-drying and as equally vivid and long-lasting as the Benetint, this is one product that you’ll probably keep repurchasing because it’s just so affordable and easy to use. 

Available here.

3. Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey vs. Nivea Lip Care in Blackberry Shine

If you’re always scrolling on TikTok, you’d know that Clinique’s Almost Lipstick in Black Honey (S$40) has taken the internet by storm. 

This classic and timeless product has been a go-to for so many people simply because it looks flattering on everyone regardless of age. The only issue is that the lipstick is literally sold out everywhere. 

But don’t fret, because Nivea Lip Care in Blackberry Shine (S$4.99) is a worthy dupe and all for a third of Clinique’s price. 

With almost the exact same wine-coloured pigment and balmy finish, you can hardly tell these dupes apart from the real thing.

Available here.

4. Mac Cosmetics Matte Lipstick in Velvet Teddy vs. Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink in Seductress

You can never go wrong with Mac Cosmetics Matte Lipstick (S$42) in Velvet Teddy — a neutral, nude lipstick that swears by its 12-hours full-coverage colour and silky matte finish. 

But, it’s not easy to just splurge on a makeup product regardless of how good it matches with your everyday outfits.

Luckily for you, Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink (S$21.60) in the shade Seductress is almost uncanny to the previous product (and you can get it for just half of the price). 

You don’t have to go through the hassle of touching up after every meal as it’s transfer proof and super pigmented. 

Those who are into the “coquette” aesthetic would love the flawless matte finish that gives off the makeup no makeup look.

Available here.

5. Fenty Beauty Match Stix Contour vs. Colorgram Re-Forming Contour Stick

This next product needs no introduction and it’s none other than Fenty Beauty Match Stix Contour (S$59) by Rihanna which has been extremely well-received from the beauty community. 

It has a long-wearing, blendable, and light-as-air matte formula so you feel like you aren’t wearing anything. 

But, for people who are still getting into makeup and don’t want to break the bank, consider Colorgram Re-Forming Contour Stick (S$10.50). 

Although it is less matte than the Fenty stick, the formula can last through extreme heat and sweat without wearing off. Besides, it is also beginner-friendly as you can make precise lines with the smaller stick for your nose contour. 

Available here.

6. Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Joy vs. SHEGLAM Color Bloom Dayglow Liquid Blush Devoted

Another cult favourite would have to be Selena Gomez’s Rare Beauty’s Soft Pinch Liquid Blush (S$39) in the shade Joy. 

You most probably saw this on your FYP and would understand why there is so much hype about its super pigmented formula. As someone who is a huge fan of it, it can get rather pricey if you use it everyday.

For the same price, you can purchase two of SHEGLAM’s Color Bloom Dayglow Liquid Blush (S$14.06) in the shade Devoted. 

This is one of the makeup dupes that gives off a soft blurring and dewy effect to help you achieve that highly coveted flawless glass skin.

Although the formula is slightly thinner than Rare Beauty, it dries slower which gives you plenty of time to play around with your look. 

Available here. 

7. Charlotte Tilbury Luxury Eyeshadow Palette Walk of No Shame vs. Revlon ColorStay Day to Night Eyeshadow Vintage Rose

Charlotte Tilbury’s Luxury Eyeshadow Palette Walk of No Shame (S$95) keeps it simple with four shades so that you can interchange depending on the look that you’re going for. It helps that the buttery and pigmented formula also blends like a dream.

But, if you’re not looking to spend over a hundred dollars on eyeshadow, opt for Revlon’s ColorStay Day to Night Eyeshadow Vintage Rose (S$20.32) instead. 

This palette features four pink shimmery and matte shades that glide on smoothly. It’s everything that you’d need for versatile looks including a soft daytime look or evening glam night out. 

Available here.

8. Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil Pink vs. Innisfree Dewy Tint Lip Balm 

There’s something so satisfying about applying lip gloss — especially when it’s a fancy and user-friendly one like Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil Pink (S$61). 

It blurs the lip lines and gives your lips the most beautiful glossy finish with a subtle hint of colour. 

There’s only one downside to this: you find yourself constantly finishing tube after tube of the S$61 lip gloss just because it’s so addictive.

Luckily, Innisfree Dewy Tint Lip Balm (S$23) features a similar natural and dewy glow with a sheer finish so it doesn’t look like you’re wearing any makeup at all. 

For those who are always struggling with dry, chapped lips, this product comes infused with hyaluronic acid to moisturise the lips as well.

Available here. 

9. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation vs. L’Oreal Paris True Match Liquid Foundation

We all know that Giorgio Armani products are all about quality and elegance so I wouldn’t expect any less from their Luminous Silk Foundation (S$69). 

It boasts a lightweight and blendable formula for acne-prone or sensitive skin, achieving a natural and healthy glow. 

Sadly, it goes for over fifty bucks and isn’t very pocket-friendly, especially since this would be one of the dupes that you incorporate into your everyday routine.

Alternatively, you can get the L’Oreal Paris True Match Liquid Foundation (S$26.60) at less than half of the price. 

Staying true to its name, it has a buildable foundation without looking too cakey or streaky. 

This would work great for beginners who are still trying their hand at makeup since a little goes a long way.

Available here.

10. NARS Light Reflecting Advanced Skincare Foundation vs. L’Oreal Infallible Fresh Wear 24hr Foundation

NARS Light Reflecting Advanced Skincare Foundation (S$80) features a whopping 36 shades which is much more extensive than many other lines.  

Other than striving to be inclusive, this foundation instantly blurs imperfections, smooths textured skin, and conceal blemishes and redness.  

Unfortunately, this is one of the products that’s always sold out so if you’re looking for a more affordable alternative, check out L’Oreal Infallible Fresh Wear 24hr Foundation (S$24). 

This lightweight formula gives full coverage alongside a matte finish, leaving the skin feeling comfortable for up to 24 hours.

Available here.

Are aesthetic treatments safe for those in their 20s, how high must your pain tolerance be, and will lack of consistency cause you to look worse off than before? 

To help you make the most informed decision, here are 6 myths about aesthetic treatments debunked by trusted aesthetic doctors from SL Aesthetic Clinic!

Myth 1: Aesthetic Treatments Are Only For Older People  

 Many people have the misconception that only older people tend to go for aesthetic treatments in order to fix the appearance of age-related signs like wrinkles, sagging skin and so on — but that’s not true!

According to Dr Sue from SL Aesthetic Clinic, many young people visit aesthetic clinics to correct skin imperfections like stubborn acne and sun spots such as Laser Acne Treatment for a boost of confidence in their bare skin — with or without makeup.

The clinic uses technology like the Nd:YAG laser, a long-pulsed laser that destroys acne-causing bacteria and regulates sebum production by targeting overactive sebaceous glands. It can penetrate up to deep into the dermis without causing damage; for this reason, the Nd:YAG laser goes beyond treating acne and can also be used for conditions like pigmentation and varicose veins. 

Plus, the laser also stimulates collagen remodelling which will encourage the recovery of the skin barrier.

Myth 2: The Treatments Are Unnatural And Will Make Me Look Fake

 Aesthetic treatments are often associated with being ‘fake’ or ‘plastic’ — and honestly, in 2023, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

According to Dr Chun Lim from SL Aesthetic Clinic, there are now an array of non-invasive treatments like lasers, ultrasound and radiofrequency devices that yield extremely natural-looking results. These therapies work to encourage collagen production, an autologous response from your body for firmer, younger skin. 

Some treatments are akin to skincare. For example, Gold PTT in Singapore which combines the power of ethosomes and gold nanoparticles to deliver potent ingredients into the deeper skin layers compared to traditional topical skincare products.

Myth 3: The Treatments Are Painful

If you’re somebody that has been wanting to try out certain aesthetic treatments (like me) but the only thing holding you back is your fear of needles, pain, and such, then you probably don’t have much to worry about!

According to Dr Wei Xiang from SL Aesthetic Clinic, technology has become so advanced these days that discomfort levels are greatly minimised through the use of topical numbing creams, anaesthetic substances and so on.

There are even treatments that have such a low discomfort level that they don’t require much help in minimising pain at all!

Myth 4: I Must Commit To Regular Treatments Once I Go For My First One

Here’s the truth: regular treatments are encouraged if you want the most beneficial effect. 

However, everyone is at different stages of their lives — so it’s understandable if you cannot afford to fit in routine treatments. 

According to Dr Eva from SL Aesthetic Clinic, while it is true that many treatments do require consistency to maintain optimal results, not continuing with regular treatments will not cause any adverse effects — any unintended or ‘unpleasant’ aftereffects you see are just your body’s natural ageing process taking place.

In fact, as soon as you begin your first treatment, it already helps to delay the onset of the ageing symptoms regardless of whether you choose to continue with the treatments at the moment or not.

Myth 5: Opting For The Cheapest Clinic Is The Best Move

 While many aesthetic clinics provide similar treatments, it doesn’t mean that they are all using the same technology, brands, and quality of products. Oftentimes, the execution of the treatments also differs with different clinics.

According to Dr Charlene from SL Aesthetic Clinic, beyond ensuring the clinic is equipped with a wide range of equipment, it is important to also make sure they have a team of experienced aesthetic doctors who have your safety and best interests at heart.

Myth 6: Aesthetic Treatments Are Expensive

While some aesthetic treatments can be costly, there are also an array of treatments that are more affordable than you think (in fact, the cost of treatments has decreased due to advances in technology)! For example, a botox treatment in Singapore can start from $S250, which if you think about it, can be more affordable than a meal at a high-end restaurant — and it lasts for up to 6 months!

Dr Kailun from SL Aesthetic Clinic, also a regular gym patron, states that their customised laser programme, which starts from $150, is even cheaper than his monthly gym membership.

Popularised by numerous celebrities like Blackpink’s Jennie (the COS quilted shoulder bag that she was seen carrying sold out for ages!) and many other top tier designer brands like Bottega Venetta, Prada and Yve Saint Laurent, these squishy bags are not only super stylish, but also really practical. 

As soft and pillowy as a fluffy cloud, these fun bags are also very roomy and versatile — they can fit all of your must-haves (and more!), and can add serious style points to any outfit.

Now, thanks to McDonald’s Singapore, you can also level up your bag game with their free The McGriddles Patty Puffer Bag with every purchase of a Breakfast McGriddles 2x Value Meal! And don’t worry, it won’t look tacky like you’re really carrying around a burger patty — it’s simply inspired by the colour scheme of the iconic Breakfast McGriddles! It’s actually pretty subtle and perfect for everyday use — be it for school, gym, or work. 

This McDonald’s puffer bag is a deep, warm brown colour with just a pop of their iconic and unmistakable yellow hue on the tag. It also comes with two sets of top handles so that you can either carry it like a shoulder bag or simply hold onto it. I must say, for a free gift, the design is pretty immaculate. 

The puffer bag will be available for redemption from 7am on 9 March 2023 at the McDonald’s Canberra outlet only, so this will definitely mean one thing — you have to brace yourself for the long queues that will form long before 7am! 

If you simply must have this bag (as well as a yummy McGriddles breakfast of course), make sure to plan out your time properly as this offer is only while stocks last and it’s probably going to go out fast!

There’s just something about plants that make everything feel so much more calm — maybe it’s the soothing green colours that they wear, or maybe it’s the clean air that they provide us. 

Whatever it is, studies have shown that having plants around us do actually have an impact on our mind and body. Not only do they help to relieve stress and cleanse the air around us, they also make for great decorations! 

If you’re looking to spruce up your home with your very own little indoor garden collection, here’s a place that you’d definitely want to drop by — Plunt.co located in Tai Seng. 

Decorated with a myriad of different potted plants and decor at the entrance, this little botanical store looks extremely aesthetically pleasing and would probably make you want to start putting your interior designer skills to the test with all the combinations of plants and planters available there. 

While the physical store is only open on the weekends (Fridays to Sundays), they have an online store available as well so that you can shop and browse to your heart’s content in the comfort of your own home and time. 

Whether you’re just starting out and need something smaller and beginner-friendly like the Philodendron Birkin (requires bright indirect light and watering only when the top inch of soil is dry), or you’re a full-time plant mum looking for something as big as an Olive Tree, they have it all. 

Other than the plants, Plunt.co also has an array of gorgeous planters that can suit any aesthetic. If you’re looking for something convenient and don’t really want to spend too much time trying to match your plant to the perfect pot, they also have styled plants for every budget like the Astrophytum in Alex II (S$18), Everfresh on Lava Rock (S$46), Variegated Pachira in Vol (S$95) and many more.

To help you attain those pretty puckers, here are 5 viral Chinese lippies trending on Douyin and Xiaohongshu that you can get in Singapore for under S$12! 

1. Flortte First Kiss Stick Love Jelly Lipstick 

Tinted lip balms are really in right now (hello, Clinique’s viral Black Honey Almost Lipstick)  — and it’s not difficult to see why. They create the most juicy and kissable looking pouts that look almost like jelly while adding a nice pop of colour for good measure. 

If you’re looking for a good tinted lip balm that’s not only affordable but also has a moisturising finish and looks absolutely adorable (this one is even shaped like a heart!), check out Flortte’s First Kiss Stick Love Jelly Lipstick!

2. Judydoll Mirror Ice Tea Jelly Light Lip Glaze 

Not only does Judydoll’s Mirror Ice Tea Jelly Light Lip Glaze sound delicious, it can make your lips look and smell yummy too! 

Formulated with hydrating ingredients, this lippy has a watery consistency that gives your lips a smooth and shiny finish. And here’s something unique about this product — it smells like tea! 

Available on Shopee.

3. Colorkey Lip Gloss Airy Long Lasting Matte Liquid Lipstick

If you’ve been trying to pull off the popular pillow lips look, then you’ll need a really good matte lippie that’s smudgeable and light on the lips (the whole point of pillow lips is to have velvety, kissable lips so you definitely don’t want something that would emphasise those texture and lines on the lips!). 

Moisturising and long-lasting, Colorkey’s Airy Long Lasting Matte Liquid Lipstick is just the perfect pick for this effect — and it feels buttery soft on the lips! 

Available on Shopee.

4. Focallure Jelly-Clear Dewy Lip Tint 

Glossy and dewy lips are gorgeous, but they often come with one pesky downside — they’re always sticky and lose their shine so easily.

Now, thanks to Focallure’s Jelly-Clear Dewy Lip Tint and its long-lasting and quick-drying formula, you can now have the perfect glassy pout all day! Because it’s a lip tint, it also stains your lips so you’ll have a pop of colour even after wiping it off! 

Available on Shopee.

5. Gogotales Lucky Bear Lip 

If you’re a sucker for all things cute, then Gogotales’ Lucky Bear Lip is definitely going into your cart. Formulated with intensely hydrating ingredients completed with a super glideable and buttery texture, this lippy is perfect for those who want a nice and healthy pout.

Luckily for us, technology is so advanced now that we can definitely find time to appreciate and communicate with our loved ones even without being physically together.

To help you nurture your relationship and build a stronger bond even on the busy days, here are 6 best free couple phone apps on the iPhone and Android that you and your bae need to download! 

1. Between 

The Between app is perhaps one of the most popular couple apps in Singapore — I hear the iconic phone alert in public all the time. 

Other than being a private space where you can chat with your significant other, you can also send cute little love letters, keep track of your special dates as well as keep photo and video albums of your precious moments together. 

Plus, there’s also an extensive range of couple stickers as well as adorable mascots! 

Available on iPhone and Android

2. Rave 

If you’ve ever wished that you could Netflix and chill or watch YouTube videos together with your partner from the comfort of your bed and on your phone, then Rave is definitely an app that you should download. 

There’s even a chat box that you can use while streaming your favourite funny video, song or movie! 

Available on iPhone and Android

3. Love Nudge 

Do you know what your love language is?

With Love Nudge, you can find out exactly what you and your lover’s love languages are, and there will be fun nudges and goals for you to fulfil in order to fill up your partner’s love tank (according to how they love!). 

Available on iPhone and Android 

4. Sumone

This one is too cute for words with its super kawaii mascot (EggMon). With Sumone, you and your boo will have to answer daily questions about yourselves and your relationship in order to earn pebbles. 

Here’s the fun part — with the pebbles, you’ll be able to furnish and decorate your little EggMon’s house and make it a cosy little space for the both of you (and EggMon!). 

Available on iPhone and Android

5. Desire 

If you’re looking for a fun app to spice up your relationship, check out Desire. Other than a private chatting space for you to send texts (and maybe some pictures too?), the most unique feature of the app is that there are a whole bunch of dares that you can send and receive! 

It’s basically like an endless truth or dare game for couples, except your only choice is to pick dare (who picks truth anyway?). 

Available on iPhone and Android

6. Agapé

Need some help getting into deeper and more intimate topics with your partner? Check out Agapé — a relationship wellness app that has an array of questions and prompts for couples ranging from cute, wholesome ones to spicy secrets. 

The app encourages transparency — you’ll only be able to see your partner’s response only after you have also answered! Might be tough sometimes, but honesty is what makes relationships work!

The post 6 best free couple phone apps on iPhone and Android that every relationship needs appeared first on Confirm Good.

While there are hundreds of different looks under this umbrella, many of them involve a couple of staple traits like manga lashes, glitter shadows and so on. 

To help you unlock a whole new world of makeup possibilities, here are six essential products that you must have in your makeup bag to create the most ethereal Douyin looks under S$10! 

1. Liquid Glitters 

Many trending Douyin looks include a sparkly eye look, so glitter is definitely a must. Normal glitter eyeshadows work really well on the lids, but a liquid glitter would be great when recreating these looks because it’s much more easy to apply and manipulate when you’re trying to achieve more complex designs like a mini crease, a subtle aegyosal and so on.

Lots of Chinese influencers also dab a little bit of these glitter shadows on their cupid bows and the tip of their noses to create a dewy, angelic look.

Our recommendation: PERIPERA Sugar Twinkle Liquid Glitter 

Price: S$7.63 

Available at Watsons

2. Man Hua/Manga Lashes 

Man Hua (or Manga) lashes are the very essence of Douyin makeup — these wispy lashes not only add more depth to the eyes but also open them up and enhance almost any eye look. 

While individual lashes are more popular on Douyin because it’s more versatile, there are also strip lashes that give the same effect for those who want something easier. Thanks to the demand, there are also endless designs to choose from depending on the vibe that you’re going for.

Our recommendation: Moffie Natural False Eyelashes (these are my absolute holy grails as a falsie noob, I’ve already re-ordered them multiple times and they never disappoint!)

Price: from S$4.80 

Available on Shopee

3. Tinted Lip Balm 

Juicy and glassy looking lips are very in on Douyin, and you don’t need any expensive lip oils to achieve this look! With a tinted lip balm, not only can you keep those puckers moisturised, you’ll also be able to add just the right pop of colour to make them stand out.

You can also dab the excess on your cheeks to add more dimension to your blush or smudge them out for a blurred look. 

Our recommendation: FLORTTE First Kiss Love Jelly Lipstick 

Price: S$8.20 

Available on Shopee

4. Liquid Eyeliners in black and brown 

Liquid eyeliners have so many uses when it comes to creating Douyin looks — you use it to line your eyes (duh!), draw on bottom lashes and dot your moles.

With the right liquid eyeliner, you can even use it to draw some strokes to your brows to create the illusion of real hairs as well as to line your aegyosal — ideally, a brown fine-tip liner so that the lines aren’t too harsh. 

Our recommendation: FLORTTE So Fine Eyeliner

Price: from S$4.37 

Available on Shopee

5. Soft pink blush 

From helping to shorten the appearance of your face to bringing attention to certain facial features, there’s definitely no lack of blush hacks available on Douyin — so it’s only natural that most of these looks involve this holy grail product. 

The most popular shade on the app would be a soft pink blush — something like Dior’s viral Backstage Rosy Glow Blush in 001. Don’t worry though (for those who don’t want to splurge), there are plenty of dupes for this! 

Our recommendation: Cezanne Natural Cheek 

Price: S$7.55

Available at Guardian and Watsons

6. Highlighter 

Highlighting is essential in many makeup looks to enhance and create fullness for important features like your cheekbones, nose bridge, nose tip and so on. For Douyin makeup looks, the highlight usually looks very dewy — almost like a wet look. 

To create this, pick a highlighter that’s more even and applies onto your skin like a veil rather than something that has too many different sizes of glitters and shimmers (if you prefer this, you can add some with your liquid glitter!). 

Our recommendation: Judydoll Starlight Highlighting Powder

Price: S$10.70 (this pick might cost S$0.70 more than S$10 but trust us, it’s so ideal for Douyin looks that it’s definitely worth it!)

Available on Shopee

Not only are the paintings very visually appealing, they’re also quite intriguing to learn about — which is why there are so many Van Gogh-inspired experiences, including the recent immersive Van Gogh exhibition that came to Singapore. 

And now, you can even turn your experience with these masterpieces into a gastronomic experience with the Season of Impressionists afternoon tea at Anti:dote located in Fairmont Singapore. 

From 3 March to 2 April 2023, indulge in a themed afternoon tea session inspired by Vincent Van Gogh’s Sunflowers painting. This will be the first instalment of a series of art-inspired afternoon tea experiences. 

Prices begin at S$58++ per pax, and you can look forward to an array of intricately-made treats with stunning yellow accents. 

Start off with some  flavourful savoury bites like the Duck Rilette served with lemon blinis and mustard seeds, Smoked Salmon Sandwich with blueberry creme fraiche on a saffron brioche, Sous Vide Lobster with lemon confit and sunflower seed bread (this one’s going to be a crowd favourite!) and more. 

For those who want to dive right into the sweet stuff, there’s the decadent sweets like the Sunflower Financier topped off with a layer of raspberry mascarpone, Ivory Namelaka (creamy) Bonbon, Macarons and so on. 

That’s not all — there are also some specially crafted drinks to help you wash everything down! Enjoy a nice glass of Colourful Yellow (S$22++), a boozy yellow cocktail inspired by the artpiece concocted with white rum, yellow Chartreuse and toasted sunflower seeds infused with elderflower liqueur and fruits. 

If you’re not feeling for an alcoholic drink, order the Bulb Fields (S$17++) mocktail made with roasted sunflower seeds, Seedlip spice, elderflower cordial, a variety of yellow fruits, tangy lemon juice and refreshing chamomile tea.
