KENS Apothecary marks its 25th anniversary with the debut of the KENS Apothecary Archive Advent Calendar, a collector’s edition that honours 25 years of beauty and discovery.

Over the years, KENS Apothecary’s Advent Calendars have become highly sought-after holiday collectibles, eagerly awaited by customers and beauty lovers. This year’s edition goes beyond being a festive keepsake, capturing the milestones of the brand’s journey to becoming Malaysia’s most cherished niche beauty retailer.

Ken Lim, Founder of KENS Apothecary, said:

The KENS Apothecary Archive is not just a collection of products. It is a storybook of our journey. Each box tells of a discovery, a partnership, or a moment that has shaped who we are today. It is our way of inviting customers to rediscover beauty with the same sense of wonder we had when we first began 25 years ago.
