Summer is coming. Time to hit the beach and relish in the good weather. And what better way to do that than with an upgraded vanity? Here, GRAZIA Singapore highlights the best new beauty products to keep on eye on this April. Take your pick of foundations (medium or high coverage, we’ve got you covered), and find a new blush to add to your rotation.

But don’t forget about skincare. There’s no amount of makeup that will make up for a damaged skin barrier, but fret not. Korean skincare label Sulwhasoo has recently revamped their anti-ageing Essential range, so you can rejuvenate, revitalise and protect your skin before any conditions get to it.

Dyson’s Supersonic r Hair Dryer

When it comes to hairstyling tools, there is perhaps none better than Dyson. The industry-disrupting Supersonic™ hair dryer was a engineering marvel, which promised users a lighter, quieter hair-drying experience. Now, the brand has unveiled the Supersonic r™—a new and improved version of the original dryer. With a distinct ‘r’ shape (created for maximum manoeuverability), the Supersonic r™ features the Dyson Hyperdymium™ and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technologies, which help to intelligently optimise the hair dryer’s airflow and temperature output throughout use.

After incorporating the Supersonic r™ into my routine, I have to say I’m a convert. The ‘r’ shape makes drying the top of the head less finicky, while its lightweight body (only 325g) ensures that you can easily—and quickly—blow dry your hair. Functions aside, the blow dryer is also wrapped in a delightful metallic pink shade (Ceramic Pink, as Dyson calls it), which sits beautifully on my vanity table.

Dyson’s Supersonic r™ hair dryer is now available here.

Chanel Beauty’s Hydra Beauty Micro Sérum

Drawing inspiration from Gabrielle Chanel’s favourite flower, Chanel Beauty releases its new Hydra Beauty Micro Sérum. The first serum from the house to include two types of micro-bubbles, the serum is packed with rejuvenating, plumping goodness. Imbued with camellia oleo-extract and camellia oil, active ingredients which nourish and hydrate the skin from the inside out.

Chanel Beauty’s Hydra Beauty Micro Sérum is available from 29 April onwards here.

Clarins Skin Illusion Full Coverage Foundation

Foundation products are a dime a dozen these days, but what truly makes a foundation stand out? Coverage? Breathability? Compatibility with other products? The new Skin Illusion Full Coverage Foundation from Clarins checks all the boxes for us. This matte-finish foundation provides high coverage without stripping the skin of its natural textures. At the same time, the foundation comes formulated with hydrating and healing properties, thanks to the addition of niacinamide and zinc gluconate.

MAC Cosmetics Strobe Beam Liquid Blush

One of the most stunning blushes to enter our lives in 2025 is MAC Cosmetics’s Strobe Beam Liquid Blush. The water-based blush offers exceptional base-to-pigment ratio for a high impact and multidimensional blush that adds depth to any look. If you can only pick one shade, we recommend Magic Aura, a deep lavender shade with iridescent pearl shimmers, so you can level up your blush wardrobe.

Givenchy Beauty’s Prisme Libre Glow Serum Foundation

If it’s not full coverage you’re after, maybe Givenchy Beauty’s Prisme Libre Glow Serum Foundation is the one for you. This medium-coverage foundation provides a soft blurring effect that gently diffuses harsh textures on the skin. The Prisme Libre Glow Serum Foundation, which comes in 30 shades, also boasts a hydrating 24-hour wear that’s waterproof and transfer-resistant.
