What: Dermafique Acne Avert Cleansing Mousse
Why: For starters, this glassy aqua elixir instantly dresses up my bathroom cabinet (which I love, tee-hee). Coming to why it made the cut, this paraben-free cleansing mousse is loved by both dermatologists and owners of sensitive, cranky skin. It disrupts biofilms caused by acne causing bacteria and unclogs my pores. Also, I was instantly drawn to the brand’s message of strongly believing in the essence of healthy skin being built cell by cell. Love, love, love!

What: Dot & Key AHA Exfoliating Sleeping Mask 12% Lactic + 2% Hyaluronic
Why: I have been on the hunt for a mask with AHAs, and this new launch from Dot & Key has got me very excited for the Pink Friday Sale. The Exfoliating mask not only contains pore refining AHA, but also Lactic Acid & fruit acids such as pineapple, pumpkin and grapefruit which promise to diminish fine lines, wrinkles and appearance of dark spots; plus Hyaluronic Acid for plump, hydrated skin. All my favourite ingredients in one package; what’s not to love?

What: Innisfree The Green Tea Seed Face Serum
Why: I’ve been eyeing this serum for months as it’s perfect for my extremely oily skin - and I’m finally adding this to my cart for the Pink Friday Sale. This moisturising and nourishing serum is great to replenish the moisture lost after cleansing, without adding any excess oils to my face. It’s a balanced blend of Jeju green tea extract and green tea seed oil that allows my skin to stay plump and hydrated for hours. Plus, I tried this at my friend’s once, and the fragrance is to die for!

What: Clinique Moisture Surge 72-Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator
Why: I stock up on this Holy Grail item during literally every sale! It's perfect for every season. My skin is combination skin, and this moisturiser works amazing to hydrate the dry areas of my face, AND it's super lightweight on the oil areas too! Oh, and it's got that little plumping action going on every time you apply it. I just can't get enough!

What: Maybelline New York Treatment Concealer
Why: Thanks to my under-eye bags, I am totally bagging this concealer, which happens to be my go-to product. As a loyal concealer-lover, I can totally vouch for the seamlessness with which this product blends and matches my skin tone. Having used this concealer for more than two years now, not once have I found myself worrying about pale, vampire-like white patches under my eyes - well, that’s the beauty of this non-sticky, lightweight wonder!
