We’re used to living in Singapore heat, but are we properly protecting ourselves from the effects of sun exposure? The Singapore National Environment Agency says our UV index can reach up to very high and extreme levels between 11 am and 3 pm, especially on clear, cloudless days.  This makes skin not just darker, but more dry, dull, and prone to early wrinkles.

Keep your skin flawless, fair, and radiant with a total approach to skincare. Use a powerful sunscreen when you go outdoors, and then counter the effects of sun exposure with beauty products that lighten, brighten, and moisturize.

HABA WHITE LADY

This fast-acting beauty serum  is your secret to fair, translucent skin. It is rich in Vitamin C, one of the few ingredients whose ability to fight wrinkles and lines is backed by reliable, independent scientific evidence.  It is also a very powerful whitening ingredient because it can fade acne scars and brown spots, and reduce inflammation and irritation. There’s also research that Vitamin C can boost your skin’s defense against UV exposure and increase the effectiveness of sunscreen.

HABA White Lady’s formula is made even more effective by the innovative fusion with Sasa kurilensis water. It is mild, gentle on the skin, and has additional benefits of tightening visible pores.

haba-vc-lotionHABA VC LOTION

This alcohol-free whitening toner contains vitamin C derivative, which will lighten dark spots and freckles for a more even and brighter complexion.

It is non-drying, thanks to HABA’s original moisturizing agent Ceramide Nanosome. This powerful ingredient penetrates deep into the skin, so it heals skin from within, so your skin feels softer and supple much longer. This is very effective for skin that’s become very dry and flaky after too much sun exposure.

haba-whitening-squalaneHABA WHITENING SQUALANE

Sun exposure can dry and dull the skin. Unfortunately, heavy cream moisturizers can feel sticky in Singapore’s climate. This supreme beauty oil is the solution: it feels light and weightless on the skin, and is absorbed very quickly. You get the moisturizing, anti-aging benefits without any discomfort – you can even apply this in the morning, before you put on makeup.

This oil combines two powerful ingredients – Squalane with a special form of Vitamin C – for fairer, healthier skin. The two work together to improve skin from within (repairing damaged cells and improving the skin’s ability to heal) while fading the existing spots.  Squalane’s deep-moisturizing abilities also help fight the dryness and fine lines and help keep skin supple and smooth.

With Squalane for healthier skin, and Vitamin C for fairer skin, this oil helps you wake up with that flawless, spotless, natural glow.

haba-uv-cut-milkHABA UV CUT MILK SPF50

You can see the effects of sun damage in your complexion, but there’s even more damage that you don’t see. UV radiation suppresses your immune system and your skin’s ability to protect itself, which increases your risk for skin cancer.  Studies also show that daily exposure actually changes the structure of the dermis, affecting collagen and elastin so that your skin ages faster than it normally would.

It’s important to have an effective sunscreen. Some people think that layering high SPF makeup is enough, but using an SPF 20 sunscreen and an SPF 15 foundation won’t give you the “total” protection of SPF 35. First of all, you only get the protection from the product with the highest SPF. Second of all, the amount of sunscreen you apply is critical to getting the full coverage. Assuming you’re only applying a thin layer of foundation, then you get the percentage of protection promised on the bottle.

HABA UV Cut sunscreen grants the highest level of known protection: SPF 50 (skincare experts and dermatologists say that any SPF above 50 gives negligible additional benefits). It is non-colored, so it won’t leave a strange white cast, and its smooth consistency is easy to apply all over the face, neck, and arms. The sweat-proof formula gives you perfect coverage whether you’re in the office or enjoying a weekend by the pool.
