With heat, and humidity, currently at its peak, I’ve selected the best cleansers to gently rebalance all skin types while removing impurities and pollution but also humidity-proof brow products for a long-lasting sleek look. Also on my beauty list this month is a warm fragrance that transports me to the sun-drenched lands that border the Mediterranean.

With heat, and humidity, currently at its peak, I’ve selected the best cleansers to gently rebalance all skin types while removing impurities and pollution but also humidity-proof brow products for a long-lasting sleek look. Also on my beauty list this month is a warm fragrance that transports me to the sun-drenched lands that border the Mediterranean.
CLARINS – GENTLE FOAMING CLEANSERS
Clarins’ new gentle cleansers are not just any ordinary cleansers. Catering to all skin types, the four products are formulated with herbs harvested from the 100% organic “Domaine CLARINS” in the French Alps. The organic golden gentian and organic lemon balm help soothe and soften the skin while soap has been replaced by organic soapwort, rich in cleaning agents to naturally remove impurities, makeup and pollution without damaging the skin. Cherry on the cake: a truly indulgent foam texture.
Combination to oily skins looking for a refreshing and shine-free result will opt for the Purifying Gentle Foaming Cleanser with mattifying organic meadowsweet extract and a pore-cleansing derivative of salicylic acid. The Hydrating Gentle Foaming Cleanser with organic aloe vera is perfect for normal to dry skins while very dry and sensitive skins looking for an extra-dose of softness should go for the Soothing Gentle Foaming Cleanser with organic chamomile and shea butter. Looking for a product that the entire family can use? The Gentle Renewing Cleansing Mousse is your go-to. It features tamarind pulp extract to gently exfoliate and vegetal squalene to help rebalance every skin type.
HKD 240 for each Gentle Cleanser (Purifying, Hydrating, Soothing)
HKD 280 for the gentle Renewing Cleansing Mousse
Available at Clarins Hong Kong stores and online

MAKE UP FOR EVER – AQUA RESIST MICRO-PRECISION BROWS COLLECTION
I’m not an heavy makeup girl. Always happy with just a touch of concealer, a bit of bronzing powder, mascara and blush. And when comes summer I tend to even go lighter as I want my skin to breathe despite the heat and humidity of the season. My tips to look good through the summer without much touch ups are an even tan and sleek brows. To achieve the later, I’m using brow tools such as a brow filler and a brow fixer.
MAKE UP FOR EVER has just launched three new brow products in its AQUA RESIST range and I can already say the waterproof, smudge-proof, sweat-proof, humidity-proof and climate-proof products are all I want this summer.
The Aqua Resist Brow Filler is your go-to if you have sparse brows that need filling. Loving the easy-to-apply glide-on formula. The Aqua Resist Brow Definer is perfect for shaping. And my fav, the Aqua Resist Brow Fixer is a tinted gel for unruly brows that needs fixing.
People will see something different in your eyes but without knowing exactly what it is.

ARMANI BEAUTY – TERRA DI GIOIA
The latest addition to ARMANI beauty’s Gioa collection of fragrances, TERRA DI GIOIA is inspired by the sand dunes that border the Mediterranean and the mist from the sea. Crafted around a floral heart of jasmine, creamy almond blossom and vibrant amber woods, it’s a sensual fragrance that reminds me of the scent of the skin after long hours spent in the summer sun. Definitely addictive.
