The founder of Israeli skincare brand Future Cosmetics Anita Bar-Lev came to Singapore for the relaunch of Future and celebrated the collaboration with Freia Aesthetics. The 83 year old can only speak French, but language is never a barrier, as she said: “Physical touch is more powerful than language”.
“I love exploring new things through travel”. Curiosity has driven Anita sourcing for new ingredients. For example, The founder of Freia Aesthetics (Serene Seah) brought her around to try some local cuisines. “Many foods have unique benefits, for example the black nuts (Buah Keluak), there must be something special about it, so I am bringing back some for study,” she says with a laugh.
The daughter of Anita, Yifat Ovadya, is also the CEO of FUTURE. Being influenced by her mother, she has a unique view on skincare and beauty. “We have been using traditional ways to produce the products, so we can only produce them in small batches, and we think this is the best way to maintain the freshness and quality of the products.”
Future’s signature products Beauty Drops 1, 2, 3 are unique water-based serum, they are rich in plant extracts and contain high concentration of Silk Amino Acid. Each Beauty Drops targets different skin concerns, Beauty Drops no.1 targets delicate and fragile skin, Beauty Drops no. 2 rejuvenates dehydrated skin, Beauty Drops no. 3 treats unbalanced skin. Each Beauty Drops can be used alone or mixed with other creams. After applying cream, put some Beauty Drops on your skin before makeup can add a little bit of sheen on your skin.
Many popular beauty brands upgrade their formula very often, Yifat Ovadya confidently said that the formula of Future is so perfect that it solves different skin problems, it doesn’t need to be reformulated or upgraded frequently.
“Masking should be part of your life, and it shouldn’t be done only when you are free. For example, every morning I’ll apply a mask and make myself a cup of coffee, turn on my computer and start working, this is my morning ritual. As long as we make good use of fragmented time, skin care will become part of our life, and it doesn’t take up a lot of time.” Yifat shared that Anita has the habit of masking for years. “Every time her grandchildren visit her, she answers the door while applying a mask.”
Her all time favourite is Mask Heritage. The mask has been around for 30 years, it contains enzymes, deeply cleanses our skin, washes away dead skin cells, balances pH level of skin, moisturises and rejuvenates dull skin. It is so gentle that it is suitable for all skin types, you can apply it daily and it doesn’t stress your skin.
She proves that as long as you live a healthy and happy life, your skin will also be healthy and vibrant.
For deeply nourishing and hydrating facials, make a pit stop at Freia Aesthetics. The facial spa at Wisma Atria Office Tower offers a wide range of facials including the highly popular Future Afterglow Facial. This treatment includes a three-step deep cleanse that begins with makeup removal and is followed by a thorough cleanse, using Israeli beauty brand Future Cosmetics’ signature Flash 10 Botanical Deep Cleanser.
After using a gentle peel (to stabilise unbalanced skin, normalise skin’s acidity as well as boost skin’s moisture level) and depending on your skin condition, your facialist will also combine the Future Soft Treatment Gel with a suitable Future Beauty Drops (a multi-tasking cult favourite that deserves a spot on your vanity) that will then be applied to the skin using an ultrasound device.
Also included in this facial is an acupoint massage and a customised French green clay-based mask to amp up the skin’s hydration level. If your skin is in need of a thirst-quenching treatment, this is it.

As technology improves, so do facials, even those done at the hands of a facialist or a therapist. At Freia Aesthetics, clients who come in for facials first undergo a comprehensive skin diagnostic system. From there, a customised treatment can be created
Serene Seah, the director of Freia Aesthetics, explains to me that the machine uses three types of electric currents and one high frequency wave. “The therapists adjust those currents so clients are essentially having three or four treatments in one session.
The therapists will then observe where you would want to sharpen or sculpt the face and do so accordingly,” says Seah. Some, like the galvanic current, uses continuous current to reduce the stratum corneum’s (the outermost layer of skin) resistance and thus allows active ingredients to penetrate, while the low and medium frequency currents have the ability to reshape the facial contours by lifting and toning the skin.
As our lives become more fast-paced and hectic, it’s inevitable that more people seek instant gratification when it comes to their beauty regime. And at the pinnacle of that? High-tech facials that promise to smooth, plump, brighten and lift your mien without being ablative at all so you can resume your daily routine immediately after. For the best results, aesthetic clinics, medi-spas and facial salons usually combine a few different equipment for a synergistic effect on your skin with the minimal amount of treatment time. Plus, these types of technology don’t require a doctor’s supervision, which hints that they are relatively affordably priced while ensuring optimal results.
