Be Sustainable and Stylish With These Fashion Rental Services in Hong Kong

Beauty junkies, if you’re looking for a transparent and breathable sunscreen that isn't heavy and sticky – The Ordinary has answered your prayers. 

Known for straightforward, science-driven beauty essentials that don’t break the bank, The Ordinary — part of the DECIEM family — has just dropped its latest innovation: the UV Filters SPF 45 Serum.

With the silky, lightweight feel of a serum, this sunscreen layers effortlessly under makeup or shines solo for a natural, glowing finish. Best of all? It’s completely free of that dreaded white cast, which means no chalky residue left behind — a major win for all skin tones.

Boasting broad-spectrum SPF 45, this formula shields your skin from harmful UV rays and helps fight early signs of aging caused by sun exposure. 

Unlike its predecessor – the Mineral UV Filters SPF 30 with Antioxidants – this version swaps out mineral filters for a blend of FDA-approved chemical filters. 

If you’re curious about the switch, chemical sunscreens provide a more transparent, feather-light finish, which is difficult to achieve with mineral ingredients, especially at higher SPF levels.

Perfect for every skin type — even the most sensitive — the UV Filters SPF 45 Serum hydrates instantly, won’t clog pores, and gives your skin a subtle boost of radiance. Plus, at just HK$164, it’s an affordable addition to your daily routine.

To celebrate the launch of the SPF 45 Serum, The Ordinary will also be holding special pop-up sunscreen keychain workshops across the city in partnership with Re-Edit Lab, a women-founded architecture firm in Hong Kong. Customers who make a purchase of HKD350 or above with SPF can take part! Workshop details: 

• 11am-9:30pm, 17-18 June, 2025, at The Ordinary's Times Square store
• 10:30am-10pm, 19-20 June, 2025, at Beauty Avenue at Bank Centre

Grab this product online or at The Ordinary in Times Square or across multiple stockists in Hong Kong. You can also visit Sephora Malaysia, Sephora Thailand, Sephora Singapore, and other stores across the region.

Let’s be honest – most of us haven’t a clue how to properly treat our scalps, we just pray to the hair gods that our half-hearted shampoo routine counts as "self-care" and hope for the best. 

So when Svenson Hong Kong offered me a real deep clean with their revitalizing hair spa treatment, I practically jumped at the chance to rescue my roots. 

With spring approaching, I was on a mission to rescue my hair from the dryness left by the winter months, and Svenson’s unique approach to scalp care seemed like the perfect solution, while also providing a much-needed break from the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong.

Trichology, the study and science behind hair and scalp health, is making a comeback in the ever-shifting beauty world, and I was keen to find out if it was more than a buzzword. Stepping into the pristine clinic assured me that I was in the hands of certified professionals, with numerous prestigious certificates and awards lining their every shelf.

The treatment began with a personalized consultation, where a trichologist used a digital microscope to assess the condition of my scalp, and proceeded to project these images onto a computer monitor. Watching a blown up visual of my scalp through a microscopic lens was an eye-opening experience. To my dismay, there were dry patches, lingering dandruff and even some gunk lodged deep in the crevices of my scalp.

To address these problem areas, the trichologist recommended the 90-minute Onsen Aroma Relaxation Hair Spa (HK$1,388 for a trial, original price is HK$2,080, and package price is HK$11,288 for 10 sessions). She advised this would help to fight off the "3 Ds" – dirt, dandruff, and dimethicone (a common ingredient in hair products which can cause buildup and even exacerbate hair loss).

Next, I was led to a serene and spacious treatment room, where the spa experience kicked off with a warm sleeping mask placed over my eyes—the perfect way to start unwinding, as well as a selection of aromatic essential oils for the waterfall-style hair spa.

The treatment included a thorough scalp cleanse using the Intensive Purifying Treatment, followed by an Infrared Electric Scalp Massage that left me feeling deeply invigorated. Then came a vigorous shampoo and head massage, expertly applied with just the right amount of pressure. The experience culminated in the refreshing sensation of a moisturizing waterfall-style hair spa, which gently cascaded over my scalp. 

Next came the Placenta Restorative Treatment, designed to boost blood circulation and promote hair growth. While the name may sound a little intimidating, it was surprisingly soothing and left my scalp feeling revitalized.

To complete the indulgence, I enjoyed a soothing herbal-ball chest and shoulder massage. They then used a device on my scalp that looked straight out of a sci-fi movie – called a 12 Laser Comb – which helps stimulate hair follicle growth.

The session wrapped up with a thorough scalp analysis to assess the before-and-after effects of the treatment. The difference was striking; the treatment had cast off the stubborn residue and dandruff, and my scalp looked impeccably clean and refreshed. Every trace of buildup had been gently but effectively eliminated, leaving the scalp not just cleansed but truly rejuvenated. 

If I were to go again, Svenson's professional team recommended the Rescue Dandruff Control Treatment (Original Price at HK$600) and if short on time, the 25-minute Onsen Aroma Relaxation Hair Spa Express, which includes an all-rounded ritual of scalp deep cleansing, hair follicle stimulation and even hair cuticle and hair cell nourishment. The trial price for the Express Spa is HK$538, the original price is HK$1,080, and the package price HK$6,888 for 10 sessions.

Additionally, if you're seeking more scientifically leaning treatments, Svenson offers the cutting-edge INDIBA + NMN Cellular Regeneration Treatment, which combines RF (radio frequency) technology with NMN cell regeneration therapy to target blood circulation and encourage thicker, stronger hair. This package is available at the trial price of HK$1,888 (originally HK$8,320 per session) for two sessions.

Final Verdict 

The results were immediate and lasting. My scalp felt incredibly clean, almost tingling, and the freshness lingered without any irritation.

While it’s not a one-time fix for dry hair or hair loss (consistency is key), my hair certainly benefited from the treatment. It felt softer and had a natural bounce thanks to the nourishing products used.

While Svenson’s treatments are on the pricier side, the soothing luxurious experience from start to finish, coupled with the informative professional consultations before and after the spa, makes it a worthwhile experience.  

If you’re looking to doze off and be pampered, this may not be the spa treatment for you. However, if you want a comprehensive, science-based treatment with advanced technologies focused on your hair needs, including scalp and hair follicle health, Svenson will give you the ultimate care.

Fancy indulging in a world of fantasy and elegance? This spring, alice + olivia by Stacey Bendet welcomes you to the enchanting and timeless library of their Spring 2025 collection, "Hotel Imagination."

Each room embodies a signature print or embellishment — think a lace library, a fantasy floral salon, a decoupaged dinette, and a chambre de l'étoile. The collection masterfully blends old-world charm with modern preppy bohemian glamor, creating a dreamy escape into Bendet’s creative universe.

This season’s color palette is a playful “preppy primary,” featuring soft baby hues like chambray, banana yellow, and dusty pinks, punctuated by bold pops of red and blue. The preppy theme is further emphasized with bouclé blazers, crisp knit polos, to name a few.

Femininity takes center stage, referencing Fifties and Sixties through ladylike shifts, drop-waist dresses, full skirts, and crystal-embellished tunics. These pieces evoke a nostalgic past of vintage cars and timeless elegance, reimagined for the modern woman. 

Sculptural jackets and vests feel strikingly modern, while classic couture shapes are reimagined in innovative ways. Drop-waist bodices and full skirts are crafted from wrinkle-resistant moiré, while engineered vertical florals create the striking illusion of an hourglass silhouette.

Standout pieces include corsets built from stretch knits, designed as statement items for the season. These are paired with the new “Olivia pant,” hailed by Bendet as “the best and most flattering butt fit we’ve ever made!”  

Dress to impress with their elegant evening wear, designed to dazzle, featuring show-stopping pieces like a glittering column gown adorned with hundreds of pink mirrored shards and a series of statement capes. 

For the first time since 2019, alice + olivia are introducing handbags, each tied to a hero embroidery or embellishment from the collection. Their crystal-encrusted clutch doubles as statement jewelry, while glittering baguette bags are hand-embellished with beads and paillettes. 

These accessories will be released as limited-edition drops throughout the season.

Location: Multiple Locations
