March has been a hectic and stressful month for many of us because of COVID-19 and the new measures in place that force us to make changes in our lives.
With stress comes skin problems such as acne, dryness, fine lines and many more that we definitely don't want on our face. So, here are some beauty products ranging from skincare, makeup to hair devices that helped make March a more bearable month for us here at GirlStyle Singapore.

Stress causes breakouts and one of the best ways to combat those hated pimples is by first and foremost using the right cleanser. This gentle gel cleanser eliminates dead skin cells without irritation, removes excess sebum, unclogs pores and reduces the visibility of blackheads.
With 2% salicylic acid (a powerful ingredient that fights acne) to help micro exfoliate and deeply unclog pores, this cleanser makes the skin feel soft and refreshed. The best thing about this cleanser is that it can be used on the face and the chest, as well as the back to tackle any back acne.
#2 Bifesta Brightup Micellar Water Cleansing Lotion

Remember to remove all traces of makeup on your skin at the end of the day no matter how tired you are to prevent skin problems! Brighten your skin while removing makeup by using this cleansing lotion that is gentle to both sensitive and acne-prone skin.
If you find that your skin looks dull and lacklustre, this will help give your skin a makeover as it contains Vitamin C and AHA that sloughs off dead skin cells to improve skin clarity and brighten dull skin. Read more about this cleansing lotion here.
#3 Krave Beauty Oat So Simple Water Cream

Finding the perfect moisturiser for our skin in this climate we live in is not an easy feat. We need that moisture burst for our skin but it shouldn't be too oily at the same time because the weather is hot and humid.
Well, this moisturiser is a perfect balance! It's a no-frills moisturiser created with less than 10 ingredients to let the skin feed on it with no worries. The key ingredient is of course, oats, which has tremendous skin-calming properties to give the skin some good old-fashioned hydration.
#4 The Face Shop Dr.Belmeur Cica Peptite Ampoule

This isn't new but is definitely a mighty skincare product that will help to improve your skin. It's a gentle formula with mild ingredients to give the skin a healthy and beautiful radiance.
The Centella Asiatica ingredient regenerates damaged skin and revitalises exhausted skin. As it's never too early to start fighting any signs of ageing, using this ampoule will also help reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Apply a thin layer in the evening and look forward to waking up to brighter and supple skin.
#5 Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink Pink Edition

Need a new lippie? The newest liquid lipsticks from the Superstay Matte Ink collection boasts four shades that are pigmented, smudge-proof, waterproof and non-drying.
Our favourite shade is 175 Ringleader as it's the most wearable and gives the lips a MLBB look. Go for a full lip or blend the lipstick out with your finger for a gradient look.
#6 Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

This highly raved lip sleeping mask is so popular not without reason and if you haven't tried it, you are missing out! While you sleep, this sweet and fragrant formula removes dead skin cells while infusing the lips with berry extracts, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid that they are supple and smooth by the time you wake up.
Say goodbye to dry and flaky lips with this overnight lip sleeping mask that smells super delicious too. Psst, my personal favourite is the Berry flavour! ?
