Relax your senses with the new Diane Be True Body Wash Series, a nourishing range of shower products that’s earth-friendly and gentle to skin. Made using over 90% naturally-derived and upcycled ingredients, such as Toscana Olive Oil from Italy, Botanical Rice, and Ceramides, these were formulated to help strengthen the skin’s natural barrier and moisture-retaining properties.

The Diane Be True Body Soap Relax is more suited for dry to normal skin, while the Diane Be True Body Soap Healthy is great for everyone. Both smell amazing thanks to the presence of fragrant fruit and floral extracts!

Price: $8.90 each
Get these from Mandom’s official Shopee Mall and LazMall stores, or at Watsons and Fairprice.

Japanese cosmetic brand Heroine Make has been a favourite for reliable eye makeup and they’ve just expanded their lineup with the new Soft Define Cream Pencil. What’s special about this range is that all the colours were created in various shades of brown - namely Brown, Hazel, and Rosé Brown - to enhance Asian eyes in a natural way without being too faint.

The creamy formula that’s resistant against water, sweat, and oil makes for super smooth application so you don’t have to worry about your lines skipping, or having the wide oval-shaped pencil tips breaking on your halfway.

Price: $16.90
Get these from Mandom’s official Shopee Mall and LazMall stores, or at Watsons, Don Don Donki, Tokyu Hands, and Welcia-BHG.

#3: Essential - Purify Aqua & Glossy range

Hyaluronic Acid is a popular ingredient in skincare as it helps lock in moisture and boost hydration levels, but little do many know that it can also provide the same benefits for your hair! Best-selling Japanese hair care brand Essential has thus made use of this beauty staple for their new Purify Aqua & Glossy range, to give you luscious voluminous locks that are smooth and frizz-free.

There’s a shampoo and conditioner, both of which are free from parabens, SLS, and colourants. The shampoo is free from silicone and is said to be suitable for all hair types.
