March Makeup Favourites | Product Picks

by: Gwen Woo

It’s time we cut down on heavy makeup and start embracing our natural skin. 

Beauty is all about having a moment with dewy, glossy complexions. In this month favourites, I’ve put together a list of lightweight products that are perfect to obtain that trending glass skin effect in our hot weather, even for oily complexions.

Hydration being the key essential focus for this month because remember, a lack of moisture can also cause an over-production of sebum so it’s important to also keep your skin sufficiently hydrated.


1. HERA Make Up Fixer

‘This fixer can also be used as part of the skincare routine and preps the skin into an even-toned base before makeup for better adherence.’

What is the best way to prepare your skin while travelling to maintain healthy, luminous skin? Hydration, hydration, hydration.

A multi-purpose fixer that seals makeup on the skin and providing a healthy glow to the skin as it closely adheres to makeup like a magnet. The HERA Make Up Fixer spritzes fine misty particles onto the skin to provide moisture for the skin and hold makeup in place.

$41.00, available at Q0010.

2. The History of Whoo Gongjinhyang Mi Luxury Base

‘The base contains honey, gold, and amber making your skin smooth and sheen.’

The base is a gold transparent cream that glides smoothly on your skin with subtle herbal scent. This Mi Luxury base gives a smooth finish for an effortless makeup application. Not to mention it also protects your skin from wrinkles and gives extra moisturizer. For me, my skin is more smooth and glowing than ever! Definitely a must-have makeup base for that full-blown Korean Glass Skin!

$59.90, available at Q0010.

3. The History Of Whoo Gongjinhyang Seol Radiant White Moisture Cushion

‘For a porcelain smooth, soft and dewy skin, this cushion is my favourite.’

Most Asian cosmetic brands create BB Cushions with a whitening effect because Asian skin is prone to pigmentation caused by the production of melanin. The main ingredient in The History Of Whoo’s Gongjinhyang Seol Whitening & Moisture Glow Cushion Foundation is Seol Whitening & Moisture Cream which contains ingredients ‘Chilhyangpalbaeksan’ and wild chrysanthemum extract to brighten and whiten the skin whilst providing intensive hydration. The ultimate cushion to obtain the trending Korean  Glass Skin Look.

$56.90, available at Q0010.

4. Sulwhasoo Evenfair Perfecting Cushion

‘A cushion with a formidable anti-ageing benefit that feels light on the skin while providing buildable coverage and still looks natural even with many layers on.’

Applying a foundation while travelling can be very heavy on the face and can clog the pores and cause breakouts. Therefore, it is essential to bring along  BB cushion that does not comprise skincare benefits for coverage. One of my Top 5 Faves BB Cushions,Sulwhasoo Evenfair Perfecting Cushion contains Apricot Kernel Oil as one of its main ingredients, to promote collagen formation in the skin and improving skin elasticity.

$49, available at Q0010.

5. Pony Effect Everlasting Cushion Foundation 

‘It sits on my skin seamlessly, providing medium-high to high coverage with a nice dewy finish that isn’t too tacky.’

A return from my January’s favourite, the Pony Effect Everlasting Cushion Foundation helps to bring down the redness of my skin and evens out my overall complexion. Did I mention the cushion puff applicator is different from the usual? It is extremely soft just like the beauty blender and with stippling motion,  you actually get more coverage with less product. The rose gold elements definitely added a nice touch to its packaging.

‘The World Most Beautiful Lipstick fit for the Queen in you.’

If you are a fan of Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb, you will love this! This long-lasting gloss will fit on your lips perfectly and make your lips shine like a brilliant jewel. It nourishes and protects your lips with ingredients of royal jelly and real gold pearl.

$49.90, available at Q0010. 

7. ChoSungah 22 Real Cheek Smoother in #Lilac Drop 

‘A fuss-free application that is infused with cotton and fruit extracts, this soft and creamy lilac blush makes your cheeks look hydrated with a flush of healthy-looking colour.’

A soft and moist blush in a reminiscing and mystic colour of lilac and petit applicator for lovely makeup, ChoSungah 22 Real Cheek Smoother in Lilac Drop is an unconventional blusher shade that every girl should own. Extremely long-lasting (9-10 hours), the blusher still looks good as though as it was freshly applied without fading off or transferring.

$19, available at Q0010.

8. Club Suppin Eye Care Stick

‘No one can tell you’re wearing eye makeup when you use the Suppin Eye Care Stick, not even teachers! I recommend it if your school doesn’t allow makeup.’

“Suppin” is literally Japanese for “no-makeup”, so it’s a pretty good bet for a natural no-makeup look. Among Club Cosmetics’ range of Suppin no-makeup cosmetics, their Eye Care Stick has gathered fans for how it brightens darkness around the eyes while also serving as a light eyeshadow as a natural-looking eye-enhancing eyeshadow. A few rubs on the eyelid and you are ready to go!

$19.90, available at Tokyu Hands.
