Daiyan Trisha is kicking off 2024 on a fresh new note. It’s an apt time as any, seeing how Daiyan has had a banner year in 2023—with a lead role in well-received murder-mystery series, W: Two Worlds; the publishing of her poetry collection, Tulisan; as well as widespread praise for her chemistry with co-star, Zizan Razak, for crime TV movie, Rompak. Here, the Malaysian actress and singer-songwriter sits down with Vogue Singapore to detail her beauty favourites, from the trends she is obsessed with to the essential step in her skincare routine that she’d never skip.

An underrated beauty product that deserves more recognition Any fibre lash mascara. It really defines and opens up the eyes.
A recent make-up trend I’m obsessed with I’m all for the glass skin and glossy lips combo. It’s incredibly versatile and works across so many occasions.
A TikTok hair hack that has changed my routine for the better It’s not a hack per se, but I’ve recently cut my hair into a bob, so I’ve been determined to nail down a perfect blow-dry routine to get the most bouncy, voluminous locks.
The step in my skincare regime that I would never skip I have to cleanse my face, no matter how tired or busy I get. I don’t think I can go to sleep or do anything without doing a thorough cleanse of my visage. My go-to device is Foreo’s Luna Smart Facial Cleansing Brush.

A Malaysian phrase that resonates deeply with me Alang-alang menyeluk pekasam, biar sampai ke pangkal lengan. It means that once you start investing yourself into something, you have to do it wholeheartedly. I’ve applied that practice in every aspect of my life and it has done wonders for me.
