The Best Moisturising Toners to Swap In For Summer Creams
Heavy creams weighing you down? These hydrating toners deliver all the moisture with none of the melt
Summer skin doesn't need a thick, heavy cream to stay hydrated, especially when you're already battling sweat, humidity, and the dreaded midday shine. If your usual moisturiser feels more like a layer of heat-trapping regret this time of year, consider this your sign to switch things up. Enter moisturising toners with their featherlight, fast-absorbing formulas that deliver a serious hydration boost without weighing you down. These multitasking heroes balance, soften, and prep your skin, all while keeping things breathable. Whether you're oily, dry, or somewhere in between, here are the best hydrating toners to replace your heavy duty creams and keep your glow going strong all summer long.
Laneige Cream Skin Toner
This K-beauty favourite delivers the hydration of a moisturiser with the lightweight texture of a toner. Its milky, creamy formula instantly quenches skin, leaving it soft, smooth, and glowing. Infused with white leaf tea water, it calms redness and irritation while a ceramide and peptide complex supports a stronger, firmer skin barrier. Ideal for dry and sensitive types, though those with oily or acne-prone skin may find it a bit rich.
Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Serum
Technically a serum, but used like a toner, this cult-favourite formula preps your skin right after cleansing. Its power lies in Sulwhasoo's proprietary Master Complex, combining ginseng, medicinal herbs, and vitamin C to fight dullness, redness, and early signs of aging. Featherlight in texture, it's perfect for refreshing and restoring balance from the very first step.
Shiseido Eudermine Activating Essence Lotion
This watery essence doesn't just hydrate, it keeps skin quenched for 24 hours thanks to dual hyaluronic acids. Enhanced with vitamin C, it helps even tone and brighten over time, making it a standout pick for dry skin in need of lasting moisture and protection from environmental stressors.
Dr Jart+ Ceramidin Skin Barrier Serum Toner
Part serum, part toner, this ceramide-powered hybrid deeply nourishes and fortifies the skin barrier. Panthenol boosts hydration, making it a saviour for dry or sensitized skin. Use with a cotton pad or pat in with your hands، either way, you'll get an ultra-hydrating finish and noticeable softness.
La Prairie Swiss Cellular Refining Lotion
This elegant formula brings the brand's iconic luxury to your toner step. With soothing chamomile and cucumber extracts, it refreshes skin, reduces redness, and minimises the look of pores. A gentle yet effective post-cleanse ritual for all skin types, it preps your complexion for the rest of your routine with a silky, balanced finish.
SK-II Facial Treatment Toner
Infused with the brand's signature Pitera complex، rich in peptides, vitamins, and minerals، this lightweight toner gently exfoliates with AHAs while boosting radiance and hydration. It also helps refine skin texture and deeply cleanses, picking up residual grime even after cleansing. A cult classic with real results.
Tata Harper Hydrating Floral Essence
This botanical-rich essence blends hyaluronic acid with fermented plants and floral hydrosols grown on Tata Harper's Vermont farm. The result is a skin-quenching, aromatic mist that feels as luxurious as it is effective, offering a natural glow and boost in hydration with every spritz.
Charlotte Tilbury Glow Toner
Created for dull or dry skin, Charlotte Tilbury Glow Toner is an acid-free toner loaded with hydrating ingredients like glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, and shea butter. Niacinamide helps brighten and even skin tone, while prickly pear extract encourages gentle exfoliation. A dewy-skin must-have with a silky finish.
Fenty Beauty Fat Water Toner Essence
A TikTok favourite, this hydrating milky toner lives up to the hype. Tamarind, panthenol, and hyaluronic acid provide a juicy moisture surge, absorbing in seconds to leave skin plump and soothed. The packaging is innovative and travel-friendly, though the subtle scent might not be for everyone.
Tatcha The Essence
Made with the brand's Hadasei-3 complex, rice ferment, algae, and green tea, this essence boosts hydration, softens skin, and enhances the effectiveness of every product layered after. Naturally rich in amino acids and antioxidants, it's a soothing, radiant-starting step in any routine.
Joanna Czech The Toner
This nutrient-packed mist does more than tone, it repairs and calms with a blend of vitamin C, prebiotics, sea chamomile, and minerals. Designed for sensitive or compromised skin, it also features a Triple-Hydration Complex to keep skin nourished and resilient all day long.
Rhode Skin Glazing Milk
A calming, hydrating essence that does double duty: it soothes irritation post-cleanse and locks in moisture for hours. With ceramides, beta-glucan, and magnesium, it's gentle enough for eczema-prone skin and has earned the National Eczema Association's Seal of Acceptance.

The flagship imoo Watch Phone X10 Launches in Singapore: The Ultimate Worry-Free Children's Watch Phone for Busy Parents
SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 9 June 2025 - Imagine a smart device that lets you seamlessly track your children's health, mood, and whereabouts – and get in touch with them instantly via video call, even when they're in the swimming pool. The imoo Watch Phone X10, with its innovative Flip and detach camera, makes all this possible. imoo, a global pioneer in the children's watch phone segment, is bringing this flagship watch phone to families in Singapore. With a mission is to leverage technology to transform the lifestyle of children worldwide, imoo has nearly 10 years of research and development experience creating high-quality, trendsetting smart products, enriching children's lives. Its flagship Watch Phone X10 tailors five key standout and advanced features of leading watch phones specifically for young users. Besides real-time video and voice calling and instant messaging, the imoo Watch Phone X10 brings high-quality 20-meter water resistance, ensuring it can accompany children everywhere. It also incorporates industry-leading location tracking, sport motivation, and health monitoring technologies, helping families stay connected and giving parents peace of mind. The "Bump and Add Friends" feature gives children a seamless solution for staying in touch with friends. By simply bumping their watches together, children can instantly add new friends after parents' permission and start chatting. The watch phone is also equipped with imoo's advanced flip and detach camera, a feature already beloved by children around the world. Earlier this year, the Singapore Ministry of Health (MOH) Ministry of Education (MOE) and Ministry of Social and Family Development issued a joint statement which said that inactive lifestyles and excessive screen time are among the health risks children in Singapore face today. The government's Grow Well SG initiative sets out guidelines for families to adopt healthy screen use habits. And the imoo Watch Phone X10 can help families to achieve this. imoo strives to provide a healthy technology experience for children. Its products are designed exclusively for children. Children love how imoo Watch Phones can transform their lifestyles, and parents trust their safety features and high-quality technology. Keeping Families in Touch – with Real-time Voice and Video Calls From morning to night, the imoo Watch Phone X10 is a child's fun companion and guardian. It makes it easy for parents to stay in touch with their children. When children sleep over at grandma's house, parents can send a short text message at bedtime to gently remind them to brush their teeth and wish them goodnight, and the child can quickly reply using the 1.6" OLED touchscreen. When they ask permission to eat over at a friend's house, parents can respond with a quick video call. Parents can switch views remotely during video calls, using the front camera to see their child's face while the rear camera lets them see their child's 360° surroundings. Keeping Time During Every Adventure – with Water Resistance up to 20m. Whether it's a family outing to a water park during school holidays, swimming lessons, or simply braving Singapore's thunderstorms, the imoo Watch Phone X10's water resistance up to 20 metres ensures children can keep their watch on. The water-resistant components and proprietary sealing technologies deliver superior water protection and enhanced durability. Keeping Children Safe – with Floor-Level Positioning As a child heads out the door in the morning — whether to school or a weekend playdate at a friend's house — the imoo Watch Phone X10 is following their every step via a Qualcomm 4100 chipset and 4-mode, 27-band global coverage, ensuring reliable and stable watch connectivity. Using the imoo APP, parents can see their child's real-time location, down to the floor-level that they are on, and see whether they are travelling on foot, by bike, or in a vehicle. And they will know when their children have safely arrived at their destination. Keeping Children Inspired and Socialised – with "Bump and Add Friends" and Dual Camera Friendship comes naturally to children, but they often lack a simple, safe way to stay in touch. The imoo Watch Phone X10's "Bump and Add Friends" feature is perfect for social settings such as parks, residential communities, or school playgrounds, where children meet and make friends. It encourages healthy and safe social interactions while allowing parents to feel reassured that their child's contacts are controlled and secure. With a 5MP front camera and an 8MP rear camera, the innovative detachable Dual Camera is also a great tool for children to exercise their creativity and capture the world through their own eyes. With a simple 180◦ twist and push, the watch face will detach from the strap, giving kids the freedom to play with creative photography angles. They can give their imagination free play as they capture fun memories of school field trips and family vacations from unique perspectives. For added convenience, all the photos and videos they take with the watch phone can be sent to their families and friends. Built to Last – with Certified Durability and Trusted Protection The imoo Watch Phone X10 is engineered with exceptional quality, backed by over 150 rigorous lab tests, including 60,000 rotating axis tests, 60,000 flips, 20,000 micro-drops, and 10,000 plug-and-pulls, to ensure everyday resilience in children's hands. Keeping up with real-world messes, imoo's advanced stain-resistant coating lets kids play freely, everyday dirt and mud can be simply rinsed away with water. The imoo Watch Phone X10 also takes privacy seriously. imoo's secure data encryption system, developed in accordance with GDPR, protects personal information across the watch, cloud, and parent app—so families stay connected, safely. Get motivated through sports – with Professional Data Tracking Fuel your child's passion for staying active by celebrating every milestone in their sports journey. The imoo Watch Phone X10 offers professional sport data tracking, including real-time heart rate monitoring, workout duration, and calorie burn, helping kids stay focused and excited about every move they make.

So Drama! Entertainment Launches New Entertainment App
SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 6 June 2025 - So Drama! Entertainment in Singapore is excited to announce the new entertainment and lifestyle app, Kakee. Officially launched on 6 June, Kakee is a rebrand of CAMOKAKIS. This rebrand marks a significant transformation for the app, introducing a more engaging and innovative digital experience for users. Rewards and Entertainment at Your Fingertips Kakee is a proudly made-in-Singapore entertainment and lifestyle app with a difference: it rewards users for simply enjoying content on the app; the more they engage, the more they earn. A homophone of the word kaki – meaning "close friend" in local slang, and part of the phrase kaki lang, meaning "one of us" in Hokkien, Kakee is positioned as "Your Rewards & Entertainment Buddy'. It is designed to be the perfect companion, in lifestyle and entertainment – whether it be listening to music, watching a video, or playing a game – while also actively rewarding users with prizes, entry into special events and contests. Kakee brings together four core features that lets users engage, be entertained, and earn: Listen (refer to Appendix A) – Listen to DJs and 24/7 music streams from POWER 98 and 88.3JIA. Watch (refer to Appendix B and C) – Watch Kakee Originals, a collection of proudly made-in-Singapore serialised video content spanning lifestyle, travel, current affairs, mental wellness, and micro-dramas. The platform also offers Kakee On The Move — social-first short-form video content. Play – Play thrilling mobile games that keep the fingers moving and the brain juicing. Lobangs – The rewards hub on Kakee where users can win exciting prizes and take part in events and contests. Kakee also introduces Koins — a gamified rewards system that adds a fun and rewarding layer to everyday interactions. Every activity on the app, whether listening, watching or playing, helps users earn Koins that can be redeemed for exciting rewards. A Fully Digital Experience In line with broader digitalisation trends, Kakee, alongside radio stations POWER 98 and 88.3JIA, will fully embrace a digital-first future. Starting 6 June, Kakee will launch new 24/7 music streams from both stations, giving listeners a fresh, flexible way to enjoy their favourite tunes anytime, anywhere. FM broadcasts and their simulcasts on the Kakee app will remain available until October 2025, after which both will cease. Beyond that, the app's always-on music streams will continue, ensuring uninterrupted access to music in a mobile-first format. This shift aligns with the growing need for on-demand, mobile-first content, allowing users to enjoy their favourite music, games, and entertainment at their convenience. Kakee's interactivity, flexibility, and rewards-based ecosystem are tailored for modern audiences seeking a more connected experience. With these new features and an integrated rewards system, Kakee is poised to redefine entertainment, offering an engaging experience that turns everyday moments into rewards. As the app evolves, it remains a trusted companion, continuously innovating to stay meaningfully connected with its audience. Kakee App Launch and Launch Event CAMOKAKIS has officially refreshed to Kakee on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store on 6 June 2025. To mark the occasion, a public launch event will be held from 26 to 29 June, 11am to 10pm daily at Plaza Singapura.
