L’Erbolario Algadetox Collection
Championing the anti-radical and protective attributes of algae and micro-algae, the Algadetox line defends and purifies the skin of the atmospheric pollutants, toxins and UV rays that cause effects such as oxidative stress, cell damage, loss of radiance and the weakening of the skin’s elasticity.

swiss line Cell Shock Luxe-Lift

All three are formulated with Laneige’s Green Mineral Water and Essential Natural Minerals extracted from six Super Vegetables to generate moisture, defend the skin from external aggressors and repair its damaged barrier.
Elianto Durian Musang King Collection
While we initially thought that this was an April’s fool joke, Elianto dropped the actual collection on us and let us just say that it smells just like the durian corn puffs we used to consume as a child. The collection includes lip balms, liquid lipsticks, eyeshadows, a highlighter, and a fragrance. Take a sniff the next time you walk pass the select Elianto stores that stock the collection, or access www.eliantomakeup.com to shop.
By Terry Hippy Chic Summer Collection 2018
Inspired by the bohemian glamour of Ibiza, the effortless Hippy Chic collection integrates ’70s summer vibes and a recipe for that perfect summer glow. There are two new hybrid Sun Designer Palettes (RM299) which houses six face shades in one, and the moisturising, two-tone Twist-On Lip (RM169), each boasting a lighter and darker hue. There is also a sweet-smelling summer fragrance Soleil Piquant, priced at RM885.
