Prices start at $32 for a lip balm or lip tint. The products are available exclusively on Freshian’s official store on Shopee and Lazada.

Lenskart’s NFT art-inspired eyewear
Halloween may be over, but you can still get in on the fun with Lenskart’s spooky collaboration with Singaporean visual artist Howie Kim.
Called Bongdirk’s Nightmare, the limited-edition range is inspired by Bongdirk, a fictional cartoon character and non-fungible token (NFT) collection created by the artist.
Each piece in the capsule range of eyeglasses and sunglasses is adorned with subtly playful elements such as knives and hearts, syringes and Bongdirk itself. Syringe, for example, is a pair of stainless-steel spectacles with a syringe filled with “blood” on both temples, while Bongdirk Twins are tortoiseshell frames with a pair of Bongdirks adorning the sides.
Bongdirk’s Nightmare eyeglasses and sunglasses are priced at $148 and $98 respectively, and available at all Lenskart outlets in Singapore (except at IMM and Toa Payoh), and online at lenskart.sg while stocks last. There is also a buy-one-get-one-free promo available online.
