Eye creams are often marketed as the secret weapon for brighter, smoother, and younger-looking eyes. With lightweight textures, luxurious packaging, and targeted ingredients like caffeine, peptides, and retinol, eye creams are designed to address the delicate skin around the eyes, an area said to show signs of fatigue and aging the fastest.

Yet despite the endless options available, eye cream remains one of the most debated skincare categories. Some swear by their holy grail formulas, while others question whether eye creams truly deliver results beyond what a regular moisturizer can do. 

Personally, eye cream has been a disappointing category for me. After trying various formulas over the years, I have yet to come across one that feels genuinely effective enough to justify the hype or price tag. While some offer temporary hydration or a smoother appearance, none have significantly improved my dark circles, puffiness, or fine lines in a lasting way. Still, that has not stopped me from remaining curious about eye creams and trying promising ones. 

Founded in 2015 by Dr. Matteo Sorato and Dr. Joseph Meli in Nevada, Kleem Organics focuses on creating high-quality skincare products formulated by a team of specialised chemists and biotechnologists. The brand emphasises the use of pure ingredients and organic compounds sourced directly from farms in Oregon, with organic aloe vera extract being one of Kleem Organics’ signature ingredients.

[ Review ] Moon Haven Vanilla Lip Balm

 

Product Description

Moon Haven Vanilla Lip Balm is a yummy Vanilla Lip Balm that is as soothing and moisturising as it tastes! This deeply nurturing and fabulously tasting lip balm not only imparts a gentle gloss to your lips but helps to protect them from the elements... be it the middle of winter on a cold and blustery day or the heat of summer. Made with deeply nurturing cocoa butter, castor and lanolin Moon haven's Vanilla Lip Balm is an everyday necessity.

I purchased the Moon Haven Vanilla Lip Balm during my Perth trip and was initially drawn to its simple ingredient list and light vanilla scent. Like most lip balms, it comes in an easy twist-up tube for convenient application.

The formula feels lightweight on the lips and gives a subtle glossy finish that helps lips look smoother and healthier without feeling overly sticky.

On first application, the lip balm provides comfortable hydration and a natural sheen, making it suitable for everyday wear or minimal makeup looks. However, after repeated reapplication throughout the day, it tends to leave behind a noticeable white layer on the lips, which can make dry patches appear more obvious. Because of this, the lip balm performs best during the initial application but may not be ideal for frequent layering over several hours.

One downside is that the clear outer cover that holds the lip balm in its shape makes it hard to gauge how much product is left. The lip balm still looks ‘full’ from the outside, so I only realized it was nearly empty when very little product remained.

Overall, Moon Haven Vanilla Lip Balm is a decent natural lip balm for those who prefer simple ingredients and a lightweight glossy finish. The light vanilla scent and healthy-looking shine make it enjoyable for quick hydration and daily touch-ups. However, the formula may not suit users who frequently reapply lip balm throughout the day, as it can leave a white residue on the lips over time. While it performs well on the first application, its long-term wear experience could be improved for better everyday usability.

[ Review ] La Roche-Posay Uvidea Anthelios Melt-In Tinted Cream

 

Product Description

La Roche-Posay Uvidea Anthelios Melt-In Tinted Cream is a suncare tinted cream that naturally unifies skin color tone while preventing hyperpigmentation. It is a preventing & corrective care against to UVB, UVA, long-UV, and pollution.

Key Benefits :

Naturally unifies complexion, while preventing hyperpigmentation. It is anti-UV, long-UV, and anti-pollution corrective care.  Tested on Asian sensitive skin.

I came across Jenny's recommendation for this product on Instagram a few years back but it wasn't available in Singapore then. I managed to purchase this last year and has been using this for my work-in-office days. 

If you didn't know by now, I adore tinted sun creams and my last emptied ones were Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Classic SPF50 PA++++, Dermalogica Skin Perfect Primer SPF30, Rovectin Anti-irritant UV Defense Tinted SPF 50+ PA++++ and Smith Total Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++. 

Tinted suncreams have quickly become a staple in modern skincare routines, especially for those who want a streamlined, “less-is-more” approach to beauty. Sitting somewhere between skincare and makeup, a tinted suncream combines broad-spectrum sun protection with a sheer wash of colour, helping to even out skin tone while shielding the skin from harmful UV rays.

One of the key benefits of using a tinted sunscreen is its ability to protect against both UV rays and visible light. Many formulas contain iron oxides, which are known to help defend the skin from blue light and reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. This makes tinted suncream especially beneficial for those with sensitive skin or concerns like melasma and post-acne marks.

For busy mornings or minimal makeup days, tinted suncream is a practical multitasker: it simplifies your routine, enhances your skin’s appearance, and ensures you don’t skip the most essential step like sun protection.

Sunscreen sticks have become a must-have for convenient, mess-free UV protection especially for quick reapplication throughout the day for some users. When I first received this sun stick as part of a gifted StyleKorean collaboration, I had already heard quite a bit about its oily finish. 

Still, as someone who’s always on the lookout for easy-to-use SPF products, I was curious to see how it would perform on my skin and whether it could balance convenience with comfort.
