Everyone seeks make-up when it comes to looking beautiful. We used to be restricted by beliefs that cosmetics were only appropriate for women. Thanks to the younger generation, makeup is now freely welcomed and catered. And happily, Malaysia’s beauty industry, which includes skincare and makeup, is steadily expanding both domestically and globally. Time to indulge yourself in the local cosmetic brand in Malaysia, no?
