Here’s a breakdown of the best beauty looks of stars from the past week and some tips on how to achieve them.

Hong Ling

1/10

Everyone knows that a bride looks her most beautiful on her wedding day, and indeed Hong Ling shone brightly as she walked down the aisle with husband and fellow actor, Nick Teo. Her makeup artist, Shaun Lee, kept her look classic and chic with a luminous complexion and subtle bronze smokey eye. To complete, lips were kept soft with a neutral pink tone.

Want to achieve that enviable bridal glow? Sweep this limited-edition highlighting powder over the high planes of the face, like the cheek bones, brow bones, nose bridge and even the tip of the chin. A blend of pink champagne and crystal white pearlescent powders, this glow-giving formula adds an instant boost of radiance to illuminate and enliven the complexion.



 

Michelle Chen

3/10

Taiwanese actress Michelle Chen looks like she just popped out of a film noir movie poster with her perfectly coiffed locks, sizzling smokey eyes and scarlet pout.

Emulate Michelle’s roaring ‘20s beat with this festive eyeshadow palette. This ultra-creamy, metallic formula sits beautifully on the lids, and lasts all day.



 

Tay Ying

5/10

Nobody does casual quite like Tay Ying. The actress pulled off the wet-hair look effortlessly, keeping her damp locks neat at the crown and looser towards the ends. And to channel that cosy off-duty vibe, she wore a grey loungewear set that’s perfect for the cooler December weather.

Get tousled waves à la Tay Ying with this wave enhancing texture spray. Not only does it add extra body and movement but it also protects the mane with vitamins and antioxidants. The key lies in the use of coconut sugar, a natural humectant that provides hydration and grit to the hair to create easy separation.

TWICE Nayeon

7/10

Follow TWICE Nayeon's lead and recreate that gorgeous winter wind-flushed cheeks with blusher. To cop her look, apply a peachy blush on the high points of the cheek bones, blending it outwards to the temple, for a youthful flush.

A four-colour blusher palette that imparts a healthy flush. The silky textures blend easily and are buildable, allowing you to create depth and intensity where needed. These shades can be worn alone or layered for a gradient, diffused effect.

Krystal Jung

9/10

Shining like the star she is at the 28th Chunsa International Film Festival, Krystal Jung was a picture of elegance with perfectly defined waves and glowing complexion. And to add a pop of colour, she used a statement-making, brick-red lipstick.

If you’re using a curling iron to get wavy locks, don’t forget to use a heat protectant. This spray mimics the look of a keratin treatment thanks to the use of a spirulina protein and a bonding polymer. Together, they strengthen and nourish the hair while smoothing the strands.
