Products by Beauty Doctors Aren't Always Great. Here's One We Trust (And Love) by Moh Shuying

Despite its low-key branding, Dermagold is becoming a favourite among beauty editors. This is mainly to do with the ultra-light textures of the products, which makes layering skincare easy and comfortable. Another reason why Dermagold has firm fans within beauty-industry insiders: Many of the products contain a higher level of active ingredient than similar products in the market. The Miracle C+ serum, for example, contains 18 per cent vitamin C ester. That’s more than three times the amount found in most over-the-counter products.

12 best facial serums in Singapore by Mary Lim
The Simply Her team presents the 12 best facial serums
in Singapore as part of the magazine's Great Skin Awards 2015.


Lighter than creams and largely water-based, serums serve as essential boosters to any skincare regimen. They can contain up to 15 times more active ingredients, and penetrate deeper into skin to target a host of concerns, including dark spots, fine lines and dullness. And with smaller molecules than moisturisers, serums are absorbed faster into skin, too. Apply before using moisturiser to further improve hydration.

13 Home-Grown Singapore Make-Up & Skin Care Brands You Need In Your Collection Now
With all things artisanal, I’m proud to call these beauty brands home grown and so very local at that. While these brands haven’t been around for as long as Estee Lauder might have been, it’s about time we shift some of our attention and support — one bit at a time — to these brands. by June Chen

Dermagold’s two founders, Grace and Luping, are both doctors with a passion in skincare aesthetics. Combining their medical backgrounds, the duo wanted to create a line that is “simple, effective and lovely to the senses”. With that, they customised products that are specific to the Asian skin in a tropical country, remember our best friend humidity yet again? And continuously bring in new ingredients, working with them to set their products apart from the rest. Their aim is to create a bare skin so radiant, you won’t ever be shy to bare it. A basic trio set goes for about $145 and their line of skincare is split into skin types or concerns, depending on what drives you there for their products. Pretty affordable I’d say. Dermagold: You can purchase them online, www.dermagold.sg.
Homegrown Beauty Brands Everyone Should Know About

We continue to show our #SingaporeanPride in the month of August as we round up the best Made-in-Singapore beauty brands that everyone should know about. We are not world-famous (yet), but these homegrown brands are slowly putting our Little Red Dot on the map by Sze Yun

Founded by Dr Lim Luping and Dr Grace Ling more than a decade ago, Dermagold is the answer to their mission of finding simple, yet effective skincare. Back then, there were only either medical-grade skincare which were too harsh for long-term use, and over-the-counter products that were seemingly less effective and unable to produce long-lasting results. Unable to find something in the market that met their needs, the two medical doctors, also childhood friends and firm believers in au naturel beauty, decided to create their own line of skincare products that were only sold to a selected group of patients, family members and friends until early 2013 when the brand was made more accessible to the open market. The Dermagold line is currently stocked at Mint Medical Aesthetics @ Mint Medical Centre and also sold at their e-shop, www.dermagold.sg.

Sassy’s Ultimate Guide to Local Beauty Brands
From brushes to bath scrubs, this ultimate guide to local beauty brands will quickly become your go-to staples! by Liyana

Dermagold’s products are created by Dr Lim Luping and Dr Grace Ling. Yes girls: doctors. The products are a hot favourite among beauty editors and obviously, it’s not hard to see why. Made without parabens, textures of the creams are ultra-light and many of the products contain a higher level of active ingredient compared to others. For example, the Miracle C+ serum contains 18 per cent vitamin C and that’s a whole lotta vitamins if you ask us! Briding the gap between medical-grade products and over-the-counter skincare, Dermagold is a good brand to have in your skincare repertoire.

10 Vitamin-infused products for beautiful skin by PERIN SIDHU

Vitamins may just be the next magic pill in the ever evolving world of skincare.

Vitamin C is probably the most well-known vitamin. It exists in many forms and provides antioxidant protection from free radicals we have no control over (molecules responsible for premature aging). When added to your daily skincare routine, vitamin C can help in the process of achieving radiant and younger-looking skin. Should you have sensitive skin, opt for vitamin C in a stable (no-sting) form.

For who: Anyone! We could all use a little tender loving care from vitamin C

Interview with Dermagold: The Reinvention Story! by Jing Feng

In our quest to create Dermagold, we uncovered an ancient beauty secret that we were really excited about – miracle berry Seabuckthorn. Seabuckthorn is rich in antioxidants, essential amino acids, vitamin E, rare Omega 7 and 190 other bioactive nutrients. It has been used for centuries as an effective skin remedy.

In 2003 Dermagold was born, the 1st homegrown skincare to contain seabuckthorn. Our skincare was light-textured with high percentage of active ingredients harnessing the best of nature and science. Since then Dermagold was sold only to a niche group of family and friends in the know. The Dermagold product line has grown together with our skin for these past 10 years.

EXPERIENCE SKIN CARE THAT’S AS GOOD AS GOLD by Joelle Pang

My favourite product has got to be the Purifying Scrub (30ml, $42.00) – a rich exfoliating butter that deep cleanses the skin giving it a smooth and bright appearance. This is star product is also a Harper’s Bazaar Beauty Award Winner in 2014! What I love most about this scrub is that unlike most of the scrubs that you are used to applying on your face, I was surprised at how soft and gentle it felt on my skin, even when I was massaging my face with it. When used hand in hand with the water-based Brightening Revitalizer (15ml, $42.00), the plant oils in the Purifying Scrub is activated to facilitate deep pore cleansing, so as to dissolve sebum and loosen blackheads trapped in the pores. A very clever system indeed!
