Beauty Products That'll Guarantee You That Hot Girl Summer
Female Singapore
|June 2021
From skincare essentials that help one’s complexion beat the heat to flirty makeup colours that get one into the mood, here’s a curation of new-in-town beauty products that’ll guarantee you that hot girl summer (even if you can’t hold that raging pool party).
NARS ORGASM ON THE BEACH CHEEK PALETTE
This year’s summer collection from the French beauty brand is inspired by a “beachy and effortless” glow – or as its founder Francois Nars says: “Like skin warmed by the sun.” The six blush shades in this limited-edition palette use vivid pigments and a lightweight powder texture to impart a sunkissed finish.
DIPTYQUE CITRONELLE MOSQUITO REPELLENT
The brand’s Summer Essentials collection has, as you might expect, fresh and juicy scents perfect for hot weather. A standout novelty is the mosquito repellent spray (yup, you read right) in which the grassy floral smell of citronelle – which naturally wards off insects – gets an elegant perfumery upgrade. Talk about scents and sensibility.
CHANEL LES BEIGES SUMMER LIGHT LE VERNIS LONGWEAR
From the French Riviera-inspired Les Beiges collection come four new shades of the brand’s wildly popular Le Vernis Longwear nail polish that elevate earthy nudes. Shades 893 Glimmer and 897 Golden Sand (far left) are limited edition, while 895 Sunlight and 899 Solar (far right) join the permanent range.

STORY OF THE DECADE
The French house of Dior was thinking long-term before the rest of fashion even caught up. Cue its Dior Lady Art series: an annual project that represents the bag it gets its name from, the Lady Dior, through the eyes of acclaimed artists from around the world. This year marks its 10th edition — proof that the endurance of an icon doesn't lie in hype drops, but in cultural exchange and creative freedom. Keng Yang Shuen takes a closer look at this milestone collection.

WARNING: CONTAINS GRAPHIC CONTENT
Besides bringing in some of the best movies from around the globe (nearly every one is “Certified Fresh” on Rotten Tomatoes), homegrown independent film distributor Anticipate Pictures is known for its hyper-stylish, often-cheeky scroll-stopping artworks promoting said flicks — after all, the company was founded in 2016, when Instagram was starting to seriously blow up.

CINEMA PARADISO
The house of Chanel has been a committed champion of the film world since founder Gabrielle Chanel started dressing the actresses from the United Artists studio at the request of American producer Samuel Goldwyn in the 1930s. Besides styling stars on screen and off, the brand has been an active supporter of international movie festivals, institutions and directors (local auteur Eric Khoo was one of them); has helped to restore classics such as the enigmatic Last Year at Marienbad (1961); and often draws inspiration from cinema. For Cruise 2025/26, it pays homage to the glamour of the silver screen as well as Coco Chanel's decades-spanning friendship with legendary Italian filmmaker Luchino Visconti. Here's an exclusive closeup look at the collection and the many ways it's coded la dolce vita.
