Get ready, beauty lovers! Watsons Malaysia is rolling out the pink carpet for all things K-beauty this April. From 15 April to 5 May 2025, the much-loved Watsons K-Beauty campaign is back, bigger and dreamier than ever, with a theme that feels straight out of a Seoul fantasy. This year’s celebration, named Watsons K-Beauty Festa 2025: The Seoul’s Dreamland, promises an entire month dedicated to the magic of Korean beauty.
Speaking on the third edition of Watsons’ much-anticipated K-Beauty campaign, Caryn Loh, Managing Director of Watsons Malaysia and COO of Health & Beauty Asia, AS Watson Group, said, “As Malaysia’s leading offline and online (O+O) health and beauty retailer, Watsons is proud to continue driving innovative and meaningful campaigns that resonate with our ever-evolving members. With the rising influence and demand for Korean beauty and wellness, we aim to make this the largest Korean Beauty Festa in the country.”
Inside Watsons K-Beauty Festa 2025 “The Seoul’s Dreamland”
Held from 24 to 27 April at Mid Valley Exhibition Centre, the Festa transformed the venue into a beauty dreamland that felt straight out of a Seoul travel vlog. Over 80 beloved Korean brands gathered under one roof — twice as many as the previous year — offering cult-favourite skincare, bestselling makeup, health boosters, and even K-pop inspired merchandise.
Wellness also took centre stage this year, with Watsons expanding the campaign to spotlight K-wellness. Shoppers explored new product launches and holistic essentials designed to care for both skin and soul. From ginseng-infused supplements to calming self-care picks, the offerings reflected Seoul’s growing clean beauty and wellness movement.
The space went beyond your average showcase, it became a full-blown beauty playground. Local illustrator Yellobanana brought her signature charm to the scene with whimsical backdrops, quirky installations, and Instagram-worthy check-in spots. Visitors tested new releases, joined interactive demos, and walked away with exclusive gifts: a tote for RM150 spend, a chic laptop bag for RM250, and a practical wagon with purchases over RM350.

The fun doesn’t stop there! For Watsons Club members, there’s even more to be excited about. The Watsons K-Beauty Spend & Win Contest is giving ten lucky members a 6D4N trip to Seoul!
