#BEBEinsider: Kimberly Wang’s 5 Beauty Must-Haves

Welcome to #BEBEinsider, a series where friends share what beauty products they’re really loving.

In this first instalment, Kimberly Wang shares what's inside her vanity to uncover five beauty products she swears by. Kimberly is a 987FM radio host, as well as the co-founder and designer of homegrown jewellery brand Curious Creatures, which recently launched its new store at B3-37 ION Orchard.

01 - Chanel N°1 de Chanel Revitalizing Serum-In-Mist, SGD126 for 50 ML
“I’m a huge fan of facial mists. It’s a great way to keep my dry skin calm and refreshed throughout the day. I’m a Chanel beauty addict and this Serum-In-Mist takes it to another level because it contains added benefits of the N°1 de Chanel Red Camellia Revitalizing Serum as well and smells so good.

I also like to spritz the mist on before touching up my makeup. This helps to keep my skin hydrated, allows the product I’m applying to go on better, and gives my complexion a glowy finish.” CHANEL

02 - Foreo UFO 2 Facial Treatment Device, SGD488 
“I received my first Foreo device, the Luna cleansing brush, as a gift. When I first got it, I didn’t think much. I mean, what can a tiny vibrating thing do for my skin? But I was sold the instant I tried it. My skin and pores never felt cleaner, and I’ve been hooked to the brand ever since. This led me to the convenient little UFO 2 Facial Treatment Device that gives skin a boost in 90 seconds.

I’m prone to rashes and the UFO coupled with the brand’s Farm To Face Green Tea Purifying Tencel Sheet Mask is extremely effective in calming my skin down. You can also use the UFO device with other masks. A glow bomb combination I discovered? Pairing the device with the SK-II's Facial Treatment Mask.” FOREO

03 - La Mer The Lip Balm, SGD140
“I can survive without my credit card, but not without a lip balm! My lips get crackly dry so I’m always on the hunt for new lip balms. My current favourites on rotation include La Mer’s The Lip Balm, which I love!” LA MER

04 - SK-II Facial Treatment Essence, from SGD254 for 160 ML
“You know how people say you don’t know you’ve got a good thing going until you lose it? That was me earlier this year. I’ve been a diligent user of SK-II’s Facial Treatment Essence for many years now. But for some reason, I miscalculated how much I would need on my three-week trip and ended up with none.

Strangely, it was impossible to find in Dubai, Egypt, and London. My skin felt dry like a desert, and I was slowly losing my mind. When I finally got my hands on it again, I triple-layered my skin with the Facial Treatment Essence every day to make up for lost weeks. It’s not so much about the volume I apply. But taking the time to allow my skin to absorb the product before patting in the next layers makes an incredible difference for me and gets my skin really hydrated.” SK-II

05 - SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Serum, SGD280 for 30 ML
“I discovered the brand while researching antioxidant skincare and my dermatologist also recommended them. I started with their Serum 10 that’s a good entry level vitamin C serum and now use the C E Ferulic Serum that’s more potent.

Sun damage and pigmentation can be especially harsh on us tropical babies, so this is truly a daily essential that effectively brightens my skin and delivers environmental protection. It’s definitely expensive, so I call it my ‘drops of gold’ product.” SKINCEUTICALS
