Beauty products loved by Zoe Tay, Jeanette Aw, Jesseca Liu and other celebs
Dread heading back to the office because we can no longer go around bare-faced?
Like us, celebrities also fall back on an arsenal of beauty products that they can’t live without. These can range from haircare products to essences, serums and lip balms.
Check out what local celebs such as Zoe Tay, Jesseca Liu, Fann Wong, Joanne Peh, Jeanette Aw and Rebecca Lim are currently loving and recommending as their holy grail.
Zoe Tay: Dolce & Gabbana The Only One Luminous Colour Lipstick
Zoe professed that she feels like a queen whenever she uses this lipstick. Although we are currently WFH, putting on a nice lip colour can be part of your work ritual to start the day right and get into the zone. This lipstick is perfect for a date too.

Rebecca Lim: Clarins Double Serum Eye
The Clarins Double Serum is a popular item already. Fine lines around the eyes are the first sign of ageing, and should be treated early before they become wrinkles. For those who stay up late to work or chase dramas, incorporate this bottle of eye essence into your nighttime routine to slow down the signs of ageing.

Jesseca Liu: Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler + Elasticity 3D Serum
As she wrote in the caption, “one thing possibly scarier than ageing is the increase in age spots.” Many of us would agree with Jesseca. While we might not have age spots yet, damage from the sun’s ultraviolet rays intensifies pigmentation, which can make us look more mature than our peers. If you are troubled by hyperpigmentation, give this serum a try.

Jeanette Aw: Dior Rouge Dior Coloured Lip Balm
Jeanette professed that lip balms are an essential product for her. As daily mask-wearing causes lips to get drier, lip balms have become more popular than ever. She recommends Rouge Dior Coloured Lip Balm, which is not only moisturising but also adds a natural, healthy flush to your lips.

Chantalle Ng: Guerlain Aqua Allegoria
The perfumes Chantalle loves lately are the two new fragrances added to the nature-inspired Guerlain Aqua Allegoria line: Flora Salvaggia and Nettare di Sole. The purple Flora Salvaggia is like a spring breeze bringing the scent of spring grass and wilderness while Nettare di Sole evokes a warm image of bees collecting nectar and the heady sweetness of honey.

Hong Ling: Derma Lab Gentle Relief Cleanser
If you are often in an air-conditioned room, the cold air can make your skin more prone to being dry. Beyond investing in good moisturisers, you should also use a gentle facial cleanser that won’t leave your skin feeling tight or dry. This cleanser recommended by Hong Ling is both mild and not stripping.

Fann Wong: Her three favourite lipsticks

Fann often shares her favourite items on Weibo and Xiaohongshu. Here, she shared her three all-time favourite lipsticks. She also joked that husband Christopher Lee would ask where she is going whenever he sees her applying a bright red lip and that these three lippies are all “husband-approved colours”.
#1: Dior Lip Tattoo in #451 – Although this is a lip tint, this watery, non-sticky, lightweight lipstick has amazing staying power and doesn’t transfer onto the mask. The only way to get it off is to use makeup remover.
