SOUTH KOREA'S TWEE LAUNCHES FLAGSHIP IN SINGAPORE

Those looking for a new label for casual yet chic fashion can head to popular South Korean brand Twee's new flagship store at 313@Somerset.

The label, known for its affordably priced and trendy apparel, opened the 4,030 sq ft space - its newest overseas store - earlier this month.

Besides carrying an exclusive collection of premium party dresses as well as a range of beauty products from South Korean cosmetic brand Superface, the store promises to bring in more than 400 new styles for women and men every month.

Prices for women's clothing and accessories range from $29.90 to $120 and the men's range costs $25.90 to $85.90. Socks cost $4.90. The exclusive dress range has pieces that cost $200 to $300.

Twee has more than 40 stores in South Korea and 11 stores overseas, including nine in China and one in Malaysia. The brand plans to launch new stores in Tokyo and Shanghai later this year.

The Singapore store is open from 10am to 10pm daily and is located at 03-16/21, 313 Orchard Road.

CAUDALIE'S NEW LIP BALM COLLECTION

French skincare company Caudalie has created a new range of tinted lip balms. The French Kiss collection contains antioxidant-rich grapeseed polyphenols which the label says helps to protect the lips.

The creamy and nourishing balm (above) - made of plant castor oil, sunflower oil, beeswax and aloe vera - leaves a sheer tint on the lips while creating a plumping effect.

The collection includes three colours: Innocence (baby doll pink), Seduction (rosy peach) and Addiction (raspberry red).

The French Kiss Collection ($19 a shade) is available at Sephora stores and online at sephora.sg .

SHISEIDO MEN LAUNCHES REVITALISING CREAM

Japanese beauty label Shiseido has created a new moisturising cream for its men's line.

The Shiseido Men Total Revitalizer Cream ($88) has a formula which the label says helps to energise and tone the skin, keeping it firm and fresh.

The soothing cream can be used both day and night after cleansing the skin or shaving and comes with application instructions to show users how to best massage the product into the skin.

The product is available at Shiseido counters islandwide.
