Female Singapore|June 2020

Sofia kim curates 15 that’ll help you master the fine, 2020 diy art of self-care.
A Head-To-Toe Care Package
FOR TRESSES

Drunk Elephant T.L.C.

Happi Scalp Scrub Did you know that all that styling product you use leaves unseen buildup on your scalp? This scrub supposedly gets rid of that gunk as well as dead skin cells using two kinds of exfoliants – chemical (gentle acids) and physical (plant cellulose beads). The addition of six plant oils further nourish and protect both scalp and locks for stronger, more resilient and healthierlooking tresses.

Shiseido Professional Sublimic Wonder Shield

The multiple benefits that this lightweight essence mist promises would explain its superhero-sounding name: maintain a healthy scalp, reduce frizz, ensure that every strand is well hydrated and prolong the longevity of hair colour. Developed using multiple technologies, it’s said to be particularly effective on damaged tresses and offers the same effect as a salon treatment.

Dior J’adore EDP Hair Mist

Arguably one of Dior’s most wellloved and womanly perfumes now debuts as a hair fragrance. Rich notes of jasmine from India and Grasse are enveloped in a lush bouquet of Indian tuberose, Chinese magnolia, Comorian ylang ylang and Turkish damascena rose, leaving locks smelling fresh and ultra feminine. What a treat.

FOR THE FACE

Chanel Sublimage La Lotion Lumiere Exfoliante

The French maison’s most luxurious skincare range introduces this luxurious exfoliating lotion that’s rich in sugars and minerals to boost hydration, stimulate cell renewal and even out the complexion for more radiant skin. PS. Its jellified water texture makes using it one feel-good, sensorial experience.

GOOD VIBES

EVERY YEAR, CHANEL PICKS A PLACE ON THE WORLD MAP NOT ONLY TO INSPIRE, BUT ALSO TO SHOWCASE ITS ANNUAL CRUISE COLLECTION (IT’S A TRADITION THAT’S ROOTED IN THE MAISON’S EARLY YEARS WHEN COCO CHANEL PRESENTED A LINE OUTSIDE OF THE USUAL FASHION CALENDAR TO INCITE WANDERLUST FOR TOASTIER, MORE PICTURE-PERFECT CLIMES DURING THE WINTER MONTHS). THE LATEST DESTINATION: VIBRANT MARSEILLE – THE FRENCH CITY THAT RECEIVES THE MOST SUNSHINE; HOME TO AN ECLECTIC REPERTOIRE OF CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS AND LANDMARKS; AND A MAGNET FOR EMERGING CREATIVES WITH ITS MIX OF GRIT AND GLAMOUR, LAND AND SEA, AND YOUTHFUL BOHEMIAN ENERGY. THE RESULTS? A COLLECTION THAT MAKES US WANT TO LET LOOSE AND DANCE. NOELLE LOH REPORTS FROM THE PHOCAEAN CITY.

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.
