Watsons has set a new benchmark in retail experiences with the unveiling of its revamped flagship store at Takashimaya Shopping Centre, Ngee Ann City. The sprawling 6,671.7-square-foot space is more than a store—it’s a journey into self-discovery, wellness, and beauty, embodying the ethos of New Year, New You.
The revamped store introduces the innovative concept #WatsonYourMind, a thoughtful shopping experience inspired by the intricacies of the human mind. The store is segmented into eight thoughtfully designed zones—Health & Wellbeing, Vitamins and Supplements, Pharmacy, Derma Hub, Skincare, Haircare, Makeup, and Toiletries—each tailored to meet the diverse needs of customers on their wellness journeys.
A New Standard For Wellness & Beauty
At the heart of this transformation is Singapore’s first-ever GNC and Watsons store-within-store concept. This exciting collaboration marks the triumphant return of GNC after nearly three years, bringing its trusted wellness solutions directly to customers. Whether you’re seeking premium supplements like fish oil for heart health or whey protein for muscle recovery, GNC offers close to 200 expertly curated products designed to support every aspect of a healthier lifestyle.
Zones Designed For Discovery
The store’s layout seamlessly guides shoppers through a curated journey. The Health & Wellbeing Zone offers a sanctuary for holistic wellness, while the Pharmacy Zone provides trusted advice and services, including medication reviews and smoking cessation programs.
For skincare enthusiasts, the Derma Hub Zone redefines beauty retail with cutting-edge features like the Lift & Learn Wall, SkinScope analysis, and UV Camera demonstrations, all supported by a collaboration with L’Oréal Dermatological Beauty. Shoppers can explore exclusive brands like La Roche-Posay, Avene, and Bioderma, alongside new innovations from K-beauty powerhouses such as SOME BY MI and COSRX.
Makeup lovers can revel in the Makeup Zone, featuring My Colour Studio, where expert makeup artists offer personalised consultations to find the perfect foundation shade and create custom palettes. Complemented by trending C-beauty brands like Judydoll and K-beauty staples such as TIRTIR, this zone celebrates the transformative power of makeup.
Elevating Everyday Essentials
From Tokyo-inspired hair care solutions in the Haircare Zone to interactive, family-friendly experiences at the Toiletries Zone, the flagship store promises something for everyone. Highlights include the Oral Playground in collaboration with Oral-B, where children can enjoy interactive games, and adults can discover premium oral care solutions.
Seamless Digital Integration
Watsons has elevated the retail experience with QR code-enabled eCatalogues, merging the convenience of online browsing with the tactile delight of in-store shopping. Monthly #WatsOnLive live streams on social platforms like Shopee further engage shoppers with product launches, expert tips, and exclusive promotions.
