Hydration is the key to great skin, so give your skin the right prep to take it all on with Dear, Klairs' Supple Preparation Facial Toner.

Althea's very own product range is here, and we're starting off strong with the Petal Velvet Powder! This debuting beauty is a translucent powder that sets makeup and leaves behind a silky finish to the touch. Infused with oil from Althea seeds, this powder works to keep sebum production at bay without drying out the skin for a radiant, fresh look, all while giving out a gentle scent. Keep your makeup looking great all day or dust some on to stay shine-free! 

Green tea does more than give you a midday pick-me-up after a heavy lunch, it's fantastic for your skin too! Innisfree harnessed the goodness of green tea seeds from Jeju island to provide the skin with moisturization and protection from external factors. This concentrate also contains fresh green tea that's rich in amino acids to hydrate the skin from within while preventing moisture loss to keep your skin feeling soft and supple all day.

Made from 92% Aloe Vera gel, Nature Republic Aloe Vera Soothing Gel is enriched with vitamins and can be used for just about anything, from soothing sunburns to hydrating the skin and hair in the form of a mask, to an everyday moisturizer for supple skin. The aloe vera used to make this product comes from certified organic farmers in California (CCOF) and is kind to even the most sensitive of skins, making this suitable for all skin types. No wonder this is one of the best selling products around and has sold over 1.5 million units!

Not your conventional conditioner, this treatment has a liquid-y consistency that allows it to apply evenly and penetrate each strand of hair. With raspberry vinegar as its star ingredient, this product has a slight acidic pH that softens, detangles and smoothes troubled hair. Don’t worry about it being too harsh effect or scent wise on the hair as this keeps your tresses both healthy and smelling like berries.

Ah, how refreshing! Made from 92% Aloe Vera gel, Nature Republic Aloe Vera Soothing Gel Mist is enriched with vitamins and is great for keeping the skin hydrated, soothed and cool throughout the day.

Missha’s best-selling The First Treatment Essence is back, and boy, it's better than ever!

This essence works to deeply hydrate from within, going deep into the layers to plump them up. The result is skin that is rejuvenated and hydrated, with improvements to skin tone and fine lines.

Oily, pore-blematic skin has finally met its match with Rire's Pore Tightening Fresh Toner! This refreshing toner controls excess sebum and cleanses deep into the pores, effectively shrinking them and removing blackheads for an even complexion. Don't worry about drying out your skin though: it's got hydrating ingredients to ensure your skin still feels soft and supple to the touch. Use together with Rire Peeling Cotton Pad for the best results!

The hustle and bustle of the urban life mean non-stop hectic schedules, but that doesn't mean you can't give your skin the lovin' it needs!
