A growing concern about sensitive skin today has put the spotlight back on the beauty benefi ts of honey. Vanessa Chia shortlists the products that’ll make dealing with such complexion woes a whole lot sweeter.
Unless we’re talking about a certain American reality TV child star whose name rhymes with “cuckoo”, most talk about honey is sweet. A popular natural remedy, it’s been harvested for nutritional, medicinal and cosmetic purposes as far back as ancient Egypt (cue Cleopatra and her milk and honey baths). Now, one of the most major millennial skincare concerns is putting the beauty buzz back into the golden hued, sugary substance: sensitive skin.
A recent international survey by The Body Shop found out that one in three women believe that they have it. According to The Telegraph, another study by French beauty brand La Roche-Posay found that 60 per cent of women say that the condition ails them.
Whether or not such perceptions are true, the fact is that the likes of increased environmental pollution and modern stresses can cause skin to act up. While there’s no concrete dermatological definition, sensitive skin refers to a whole host of skin reactions: allergies like rosacea and eczema, a low tolerance to skincare products, even a tendency to flush red.

A Not So Common Scent
For the first time, the singular house of Hermes has launched a chypre perfume fragrance type known for its complexity and dualistic nature a that comes in a first-of-its-kind bottle, no less. Keng Yang Shuen finds out more about Barenia, Hermes's latest scent that hit stores recently, from the brand's in-house perfumer Christine Nagel.
Strange Love
The six names in this story create wildly different works that tend to blur the boundaries among disparate disciplines. All have little in common except one thing: a certain wondrousness and sense of curiosity that inspire audiences to look at familiar things anew. Keng Yang Shuen reports.
The artist
Johnny Depp is certainly far from the conventional leading man: the iconically quirky on-screen roles, the rock musician persona (he was a guitarist before becoming an actor), the unexpected neoexpressionist portraits in 2022 (these paintings of cultural heroes ranging from AI Pacino to Elizabeth Taylor sold out in a day), and of course the title of being Dior's long-standing poster boy for its wilderness-inspired flagship men's perfume Sauvage for nine years and counting.

Showtime
Shaggy, floor-sweeping, candy-coloured faux fur coats. A tuxedo suit with exaggerated proportions that's a nod to Marlene Dietrich. Bondage-inspired evening gowns. One would think that a collaboration fronted by a contemporary label would mean tempering down on the drama, but the Bimba Y Palomo collection, a tie-up between the fun-loving Bimba Y Lola and the red-carpet provocateur Palomo Spain, more than doubles down on it. Here, the latter's creative director Alejandro Gomez Palomo gives an exclusive interview on keeping the dream of dressing up alive.
