DrYGshop
Popular aesthetic clinic Dr Yvonne Goh Aesthetics has a proprietary range of clinical skincare products made to address a full range of skin conditions from acne to pigmentation and sun spots. For all-round anti-ageing, check out the Retinol Illuminator ($110), a best-selling blend of retinol and botanical extracts for firming the skin, reducing fine lines and evening out skin tone.
Another fab pick is the Hydra-C Intense ($85), a lightweight, oil-free serum formulated with Vitamin C for brightening and hyaluronic acid for hydration. And, if you need an extra boost, try the Glow Booster Microtabs ($165), which help to neutralise melanin production and protect the skin from free radical oxidation, resulting in a brighter and healthier complexion in the long run. The supplement comes in the form of micro-sized tablets that are produced with patented advanced German technology. They are easy to consume, fast to absorb and convenient for travel. Each micro-sized tablet comprises of carefully-selected natural supergreens and pharmaceutical-grade ingredients – which work together to promote long-term skin clarity and collagen production – and is free of artificial colourings or flavourings, preservatives, gluten and lactose. Simply take one mini-spoonful of MicroTabs everyday.

Glowella
This online beauty store offers a small but niche range of cult-favourite beauty products from UK brands Instant Effects and Cult 51. Cheat your way to looking fresh, awake and wide-eyed during the party season with the Instant Effects Instant Eye Lift ($79.90), a potent lifting serum that promises to lighten dark circles and diminish fine lines in just 15 minutes! How does it work? The super serum interacts with the skin’s own metabolism to increase elasticity, and its micro-circulation activators increase blood blow to reduce puffiness and dark circles. Another one on our lust list is My DreamSkin Pillowcase ($89.90), an anti-wrinkle pillowcase that has been proven to reduce fine lines while you doze off to dreamland.
