You know how doctors and teachers seem to run in families? So do beauty people. Take Ashley Yong, one half of Singapore vegan brand Two Halves, which launched in October 2019. The 28-year-old learnt about skincare and makeup from her mum.
“My mother taught me that no one is too young to begin investing in skincare,” Ashley says. “The best foundation for resilient skin is to start an essential skincare routine of cleansing and moisturising.”
Mum is Jo Yong, 59, former brand general manager at Estee Lauder Companies, who, in 2012, helped to launch Tom Ford Beauty in Singapore. She’s now a director at a group establishment for the beauty wholesale and retail industry, and is a consultant for Two Halves.
