Welcome to #BEBEinsider, a series where friends share what beauty products they’re really loving. For January’s instalment, Karen Beh, model with Now Model Management, shares the five beauty products she loves.
01 - Burberry Beauty My Burberry Blush Eau De Parfum, from SGD60 for 10 ML
“I was gifted a mini version of this perfume for Christmas years back. Ever since then, I’ve been hooked on it. This is definitely one of my all-time favourite fragrances.
It is a feminine, modern scent that’s clean and fresh, with just the right amount of sweetness. I have received a ton of compliments on this perfume. Its scent never fails to make me feel confident and empowered. Besides, the longevity of this perfume is awesome too!” BURBERRY
02 - Bube Propolis Lipcerin, SGD22 for 15 ML
“The search for a lip balm that truly works for me ended when I tried this product. I discovered it through a viral TikTok video and managed to find it in South Korea after heading to three different Olive Young stores. This contains manuka honey which has amazing healing properties and it intensely moisturises my lips.
I like to apply this before starting my makeup routine. By the time I’m ready for lipstick application, I wipe off the lip balm and have the most perfect lip canvas to work with. I also apply it in the night before bed, to wake up with the softest lips. Bonus points for smelling and tasting just like honey.” CNP LABORATORY
03 - Dior Beauty Backstage Eye Palette 002 Smoky Essentials, SGD86
“Growing up, Dior Beauty’s makeup palettes have always captured my eyes. I made my first purchase after a makeup artist I worked with created the most gorgeous look on me with one of the Backstage Eye Palettes. I love them so much that I own three of them in different colourways.
002 Smoky Essentials is by far my favourite. It is such a versatile palette. Whether I’m looking to do a soft, natural daytime look or a dramatic smoky eye for a night out, this palette has got me covered. And because the long-staying formula that’s easy to blend comes in such compact packaging, it is the only palette I bring with me whenever I travel.” DIOR
04 - Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream, from SGD39 for 28 ML
“I struggle a lot with dry skin, and this never fails to hydrate my skin and leave it looking more radiant. It contains squalane, which is an ingredient that I actively look out for in skincare products because it provides excellent hydration.
It is such a lightweight moisturiser, thus perfect for Singapore’s humid climate. I use it both as part of my day and night skincare routine and apply a more generous layer in the night.” KIEHL’S
05 - Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 40 PA+++, from SGD36 for 20 ML
“My friends were all raving about Supergoop! and recommending it to me. I gave it a shot and this sunscreen has been my holy grail for two years now. Sunscreen is a must in my daily skincare routine, and I love this. As its name suggests, it is truly undetectable and does not leave a white cast.
But the best part for me is its staying power. I’ve worn this out in summer doing water activities under the harsh UV rays and my skin was well protected. Also, its clear gel-like consistency swipes on my skin like velvet. It doubles up as a primer since it gives me the smoothest base to work with under makeup.” SUPERGOOP
