THE FUTURE OF LIP CARE, REVOLUTIONISED BY SKINMADE

Did you know? The skin on our lips doesn’t have pores, sebaceous glands, or sweat glands.

This means it does not have the ability to self-hydrate or produce oil. Also, the skin on our lips is up to 5 times thinner than that on the face, making it even more prone to damage and discolouration!

In a hot and humid country like Malaysia, where temperatures exceed 30°C on a daily basis, it’s important to keep your lips protected from the sun’s harsh rays. In addition, many of us work, live, or sleep in an air-conditioned environment, making our lips prone to dryness, which in turn, causes fine lines.

The problem is that most lip care products in the market don’t focus on long term results – instead, they tend to offer quick fixes that simply don’t address the root cause of dry, cracked, or discoloured lips.

Just like how you use a serum during the day and an overnight mask at night for your face, the experts at SKINMADE recommend that you do the same for your lips.

Shield by day and nourish by night with SKINMADE Lip Power Light-Activated Maximum Boost Super Antioxidants Serum and Lip Elixir Overnight Maximum Treatment Pro-Collagen Lip Mask, the first lip therapy system in the Malaysian market that provides multiple benefits with just one application!

SKINMADE is a homegrown brand, founded in 2017 based on the ethos of creating purposeful products. What makes the brand unique is its unwavering dedication to innovation, which they combine with scientifically proven formulas to create remarkable products that answer skin concerns faced by Malaysians. SKINMADE’s online presence is evident in its viral products such as Skin Boost Broad-Spectrum + Blue Light Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++, INFINITEBRIGHT™️ 15% Vitamin C + Bio Stemcell Super Brightening serum, and Golden C®️ + Exoshot™️ Collagen Boosting Filler Concentrate.

FOR DAY: Shield, Brighten & Restore with SKINMADE Lip Power Light-Activated

Maximum Boost Super Antioxidants Serum

With the highest protection of SPF50+ PA++++, Lip Power’s supercharged light-activated antioxidants enhance lips’ natural pink hue and strengthen their resistance towards UV damage. A combination of mineral and chemical UV filters ensures full-spectrum coverage

against UVB, UVA, and ultra-long UVA rays to prevent 80% of sun-induced pigmentation, reducing the risk of photoaging and lip thinning. Lip Power is also formulated with a blue light shield that provides up to 70% reduction in blue light-induced oxidative stress produced by

indoor lighting and gadget screens.

Lip Power boasts a number of specially-selected ingredients:

• Advanced Brightening Complex (X50®️ Pure White, Lumiskin™️, LUMINIA

GRANATUM™️, Oligopeptide-68, Kojic Acid Dipalmitate)

Benefits: Fades discolouration and restores lip’s natural pink hue

• Advanced Antioxidant Complex (Vitamin C THDA, Beta-Carotene, Resveratrol,

Ectoin, Pink Micro-Algae, Licorice Root Extract)

Benefits: Fights oxidative stress and prevents lip darkening

• Soybean Oil, Carrot Seed Oil, Silymarin

Benefits: Deep nourishment and barrier repair

Usage: Apply to lips using the slanted applicator, anytime of the day. For added protection, use it as a base layer before following with your favourite lip colour.

FOR NIGHT: Nourish, volumize & exfoliate with SKINMADE Lip Elixir Overnight

Maximum Treatment Pro-Collagen Lip Mask

Wake up to fuller, smoother, and deeply nourished lips! Within this tube is a powerhouse of clinically proven ingredients that boost collagen, smooth away fine lines, and enhance the

volume of your pout. Unlike other plumping lip products that achieve this effect by increasing blood flow and causing an uncomfortable tingling feeling, SKINMADE uses cutting-edge pro-

collagen and volumizing actives to give lips a natural fullness. At the same time, a texture- refining peptide gently exfoliates to remove dead skin cells that cause roughness and uneven lip colour application.

The expert-curated ingredients in Lip Elixir include:

• Pro-Collagen & Volumizing Complex (Matrixyl®️3000, Humacoll21®️, Volufilline™️, Linefill™️, 10-Peptide Complex)

Benefits: Increases collagen production, elasticity, and lip volume

• Exfoliating & Texture-Refining Peptide (Hexanoyl Dipeptide-3 Norleucine

Acetate)

Benefits: Gently exfoliating dead skin and revealing smoother, softer lips

• Barrier Strengthening Complex (Shea Butter, Squalane, Beta Carotene, Pink

Micro-Algae, 5 Essential Ceramides)

Benefits: Provides long-lasting moisture and barrier care

• 7 Phyto-Nutritive Oils (Prickly Pear, Oat Kernel, Soybean, Macadamia, Avocado,

Meadowfoam, and Jojoba)

Benefits: Reduces inflammation and repairs chapped lips

Usage: Apply to clean, dry lips before bed. For intensive care, cover lips in a thicker layer of the mask, and leave on for 10-15 minutes before wiping off excess.

SKINMADE’s Purposeful Skincare Tip

When creating Lip Power and Lip Elixir, SKINMADE paid extra attention to make sure that this lip therapy system is suitable for everyone:

✓ No fragrance, essential oils or denatured alcohol = suitable for sensitive skin and lips!

✓ No retinoids, hydroquinone or endocrine disruptors = pregnancy and breastfeeding

safe!

✓ Metal-free packaging and applicator = safe for nickel allergies!

✓ Clear texture, invisible finish & non-sticky = suitable for both women and men!

✓ No animal by-products or derivatives = vegan friendly and halal conscious!

guardian Celebrates Real Choices, Real Confidence

The guardian Awards: Beauty & Wellbeing 2025 officially kicked off today with an inspiring launch that celebrated not just products, but the personal journeys, choices, and stories behind them. Held at Blue Atrium in Sunway Pyramid, the event welcomed leading healthy and beauty experts, media, influencers, and guests to experience an immersive showcase of what beauty and wellbeing truly mean to Malaysians today.

Rooted in guardian’s belief in empowerment, the awards go beyond just recognition. They honour the real needs, real lives, and real care that go into every beauty and wellness decision Malaysians make every day, with guardian as their trusted leading voice to provide the products and care they seek to achieve their own standards of beauty and self-care.

“The guardian Awards has always celebrated trust and confidence in the beauty and wellbeing products we carry. Every year, our winners are chosen by Malaysians themselves, based on real experiences and real results. These aren’t just trending items – they are products that support self-care, boost confidence, and help people look and feel their best every day. The Awards also builds on the momentum of our recent brand relaunch, as we continue to focus on what matters most to our customers: Quality, wellbeing, and the freedom to choose what works for them,” says Anna Ng, Marketing Director of guardian Malaysia.

“As the country’s leading health, beauty, and personal care chain, we are proud to offer a wide range of high-quality, reliable products that meet our customers’ needs – not just for beauty, but for holistic wellbeing.” 

Honouring 2025’s Most Trusted Products: Best Sellers and Expert Picks

The event unveiled for the first time the guardian Awards 2025 winners across two key categories: Best Sellers and Expert Picks. 

The Best Sellers Awards 2025 shines a spotlight on the products Malaysians buy most often at guardian, trusted by consumers for consistently delivering results. These are the everyday favourites that have become staples in homes across the country, recognised for their proven results and lasting impact.

The Expert Picks 2025 were selected by a panel of respected voices in beauty and wellness: Dr. Shazril Shaharuddin, healthcare professional and wellness advocate, Yasmin Khalid, skincare enthusiast and content creator, Shiyo Joo, celebrity makeup artist, and Cody Chua, celebrity hair stylist.

Together, they reviewed over 100 products across skincare, cosmetics, personal care, and healthcare, evaluating each one over a one-month period for effectiveness, innovation, and relevance to Malaysian lifestyles. 

An Interactive Celebration of Beauty and Wellness

The event was not just about awards – it was a fully immersive experience. Guests at the event enjoyed engaging sessions with this year’s Expert Picks panel, who shared their professional insights and personal experiences. In one session, Dr. Shazril and Yasmin Khalid explored the powerful link between health and skincare, emphasising how a balanced approach to mind, body, and lifestyle can transform self-care into a form of everyday empowerment. 

In another, Shiyo and Cody tackled some of the most common beauty and grooming myths seen on social media to debunk viral trends while offering practical advice on making smarter beauty choices. 

Attendees also posed questions to these experts via a Q&A session, making the entire event a casual and meaningful experience as it created space for real, honest conversations on how to approach beauty with confidence, curiosity, and a critical eye – reinforcing that good decisions start with good information.

Guests then explored interactive zones, each one led by an expert, where they tried, tested, and learnt about the winning products. They also participated in fun games and activities, from skincare routine challenges to beauty quizzes, offering direct engagement with the experts and the award-winning products Malaysians trust most. 

Fan Favourites Voting Now Open

During the event, voting officially opened for the Fan Favourites category. From 30 April to 3 June 2025, Malaysians can vote for their favourite cosmetic, skincare, healthcare, and personal care products via guardian’s website and social media platforms.

By voting, participants stand a chance to win exclusive prizes worth over RM100,000 –  including Dyson Airstraight™ Straightener, ZenyumSonic™ Electric Toothbrush, DJI Osmo Pocket 3, and three Grand Prizes, each a 3D2N stay in an Ocean Junior Suite at One&Only Desaru Coast respectively.

Also, from now until 4 May 2025, guardian will bring the excitement of the Awards to life with a roadshow at the Blue Atrium in Sunway Pyramid, giving the public a chance to explore award-nominated products up close, enjoy exclusive deals and giveaways, and cast their votes for their Fan Favourites in person. 

Celebrating Own Your Beautiful

guardian recognises that beauty is as diverse as Malaysia’s communities and is proud to champion products that reflect every individual’s unique stories. Its partnerships with brands, experts, and customers are built on trust, allowing it to curate the best in health, wellbeing, and beauty. 

The guardian Awards is a reflection of this commitment to celebrate the trusted choices Malaysians make in defining beauty and wellbeing, not just by what they see, but by how they live and feel every day.

SHARP Malaysia Fuses Japanese Aesthetics and Innovation to Inspire a Mighty Living Experience

Wow... did you actually know, that renowned Japanese brand SHARP has already been in Malaysia for 40 years. True to its philosophy of “Sincerity and Creativity,” SHARP consistently delivers original and high-quality products. This unwavering commitment was once again recognised at the 2024 Putra Brand Awards, where SHARP clinched two Gold Awards – a solid proof of the strong trust and support it continues to receive from Malaysian consumers.

In attesting to its commitment to align with local lifestyles, Sharp Electronics (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. hosted the “Japanese Living to Your Home” product showcase 2025. Marking its 40th anniversary, the event featured new products that integrate Japanese aesthetics with innovative technology, aiming to enhance the quality of life in Malaysian homes across areas such as living, cooking, cleaning and communication.

During the showcase, participants had a first look at a new range of products that blend Japanese design philosophy with local needs. These products embody the hallmark of Japanese craftsmanship — precision, practicality and user-friendly design. 

However, SHARP goes one step further by localising its innovations to better suit Malaysian homes in emphasising space-saving features, energy efficiency and functionality. Since its entry into the Malaysian market in 1985, SHARP has always prioritised local needs — a key reason for its enduring presence and success.

SHARP’s innovations cover a wide range of home appliances, from immersive entertainment systems to smart solutions for comfort, wellness and productivity.

In entertainment, SHARP proudly unveils its all-new AQUOS H Series TVs, ranging from 50 to 98 inches — the latter being the largest AQUOS TV currently available in Malaysia, offering an unprecedented visual experience. The H Series comprises four lineups: AQUOS XLED, TRU, QLED, and 4K, catering to a wide spectrum of viewing preferences. Three of these lineups feature SHARP’s proprietary Deep Chroma QD (Quantum Dot) technology, delivering richer and more vivid colours — especially in red and green tones — for a truly immersive cinematic experience.

The series highlight is the AI Magic Sing feature, which transforms your living room into singing joint with just the press of a button — no complicated setup required. Simply turn on the Magic Sing mode and enjoy a seamless singing session.

Users can also download the Smart Living Camera App to connect a webcam to the TV, enabling photo and short video capture. The TV’s mirroring function allows users to see themselves during fitness videos, helping them to correct their posture and improving workout effectiveness.

For home appliances, SHARP debuts the new Avance French-Door Refrigerator in two elegant colours – Tokyo Black and Fuji White – a stylish contrast inspired by Japanese minimalism. SHARP has enlisted its brand ambassadors — Malaysia’s top women’s badminton doubles duo, Pearly Tan and M. Thinaah — for this campaign to represent the theme, “Taiketsu: The Showdown”, symbolising the dynamic interplay between black and white, fashion and function.

This refrigerator series offers spacious 480L and 750L capacities. Together with SHARP’s advanced freshness technology and sleek, modern design, they provide an ideal food storage solution for various household styles.

Unlike the common “3:7 freezer-to-fridge” ratio, the Mega Freezer adopts a “4:6 design,” providing more freezer space.

 This aligns with the bulk-purchase habits of Malaysian families, solving the issue of limited freezer capacity while offering easier organization and storage.

The showcase also featured SHARP’s newly launched top-load inverter washing machine series, designed to meet modern demands for energy-efficient laundry care. New front-load models were also introduced, catering to younger users’ preferences for stylish design and gentle fabric care. Continuing the 2024 “My Second Washer” concept, the exhibition features three mini washers and tub-less models. They are perfect for washing underwear, sportswear, and baby clothes, emphasising hygiene and separation in laundry routines.

SHARP also showcased air purifiers with dehumidifying functions, especially designed for Malaysia’s humid climate. Featuring Plasmacluster ion technology, these purifiers clean the air, suppress bacteria and viruses, and maintain optimal indoor humidity — creating a fresher and healthier home environment. Additionally, SHARP introduced a two-in-one air conditioner with Plasmacluster technology that combines cooling and air purification functions for all-around indoor air protection.

As Malaysian work culture continues to evolve, the demand for smart business solutions in commercial and service industries is growing. The SMART Working Life Zone at the showcase highlighted SHARP’s latest E-signage solution. This comprehensive system combines hardware, software and AI-powered content creation to deliver high-performance digital signage for retail, F&B, hospitality and other sectors. From promotional displays and customer engagement to content management, these solutions enhance customer experience and operational efficiency.

To coincide with the 2025 product showcase, SHARP has collaborated with Hollywood blockbuster, “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning”, by offering complimentary movie tickets for customers to enjoy an immersive audiovisual experience. 

In celebrating its 40th anniversary, SHARP has upgraded its after-sales service earlier this year by introducing a “7-Day Service Completion Guarantee” to provide customers with faster, worry-free support. All inverter-series products and selected AQUOS TV models now come with extended warranty coverage to reflect SHARP’s unwavering commitment to quality, care, and long-term customer trust.

Sensodyne Tackles Widespread Tooth Sensitivity in Malaysia with Fresh Mint Launch

A new survey* conducted by Haleon, a global leader in consumer health, reveals a significant public health concern in Malaysia: tooth sensitivity. The survey of 248 Malaysians showed that a staggering 69% experience regular tooth sensitivity, with 61.8% enduring the discomfort rather than seeking dental treatment. Sensodyne, Malaysia's #1 sensitivity toothpaste brand*, is re-launching its Fresh Mint toothpaste with a new and improved formula that provides long-lasting relief and encourages Malaysians to stop enduring and start living life worry-free from sensitivity – because Why Tahan?

The survey, conducted among the 18-40 age-group, showed that younger generations are highly affected by this issue. A total of 38.4% of the respondents were aged 26-40, while 34.6% belonged to the 18–25 age category, indicating a need for an increased awareness and effective solutions for sensitive teeth across all age groups.

 

This common condition disrupts the everyday habits of most Malaysians, with cold foods (58.5%) being the leading cause of sensitivity, followed by sweets and hot drinks, based on the survey. These findings highlight how tooth sensitivity prevents individuals from fully enjoying everyday pleasures. Alarmingly, only 13.1% actively address sensitivity by brushing their teeth to relieve discomfort, reflecting low awareness of best practices.

In response to this widespread issue, Sensodyne has announced the launch of Sensodyne Fresh Mint. This new toothpaste, specially developed with an improved formula, provides lasting relief and allows Malaysians to live life without the fear of sensitivity. Sensodyne Fresh Mint offers a range of benefits to tackle sensitivity:

24-Hour Protection:  With continued use and twice daily brushing, enjoy your favourite foods and drinks throughout the day without irritation. 

Lasting freshness: Sensodyne Fresh Mint with improved formulation provides lasting freshness with regular use.

Triple-Action Cleaning Technology: This innovative formula polishes teeth, removes surface stains, and brushes away bacteria for a cleaner, healthier smile.

Sensodyne’s effectiveness is further validated by a Real-World Evidence study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH). The Dentine Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ) study identified that:

100% of regular Sensodyne users expressed daily satisfaction.

98% reported improvement in their sensitivity symptoms.

“Too many Malaysians endure the discomfort of tooth sensitivity, missing out on simple joys like a refreshing iced coffee or a scoop of ice cream. Instead of addressing the root cause, many wait for the pain to pass. These findings underscore the urgent need for effective solutions and greater awareness around sensitivity. That’s why Sensodyne, in collaboration with the Malaysian Dental Association, is intensifying efforts to raise awareness and promote early intervention – because if left untreated, sensitivity can lead to more serious dental issues,” shared Law Chen, Marketing Director at Haleon Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei.

Dr Mohd Salman bin Masri, a Periodontist representing Malaysian Dental Association (MDA) echoed this sentiment: “Tooth sensitivity is more than just a minor inconvenience – it can signal deeper oral health issues. Yet, many Malaysians endure it without realising how much it affects their daily lives. According to a real-life study recently published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 93% of respondents said sensitivity takes the joy out of eating and drinking, impacting both physical comfort and emotional well-being.  That’s why it’s crucial to address sensitivity early – right when you first feel it. Ignoring it could lead to bigger problems down the line."

To commemorate World Oral Health Day, Sensodyne is launching a nationwide campaign “A Happy Mouth is…A Happy Mind” to unite Malaysians. As part of this initiative, Sensodyne is collaborating with the Malaysian Dental Association to offer one month of complimentary dental check-ups across more than 500 clinics in Malaysia from 21 April to 21 May 2025. 

Sensodyne Fresh Mint is available nationwide at pharmacies, dental clinics, minimarkets, supermarkets, and hypermarkets and provision stores
