  • There’s More to Your Sensitive Skin: Cetaphil continues the National Healthy Skin Mission on its 6th year with Anne Curtis

    There’s More to Your Sensitive Skin: Cetaphil continues the National Healthy Skin Mission on its 6th year with Anne Curtis

    Cetaphil continues the National Healthy Skin Mission on its 6th year with Anne Curtis and its most advanced solution for redness-prone skin yet

    When it comes to sensitive skin, most people think they’ve got it figured out: until they don’t.

    What many still don’t realize is that sensitive skin is no longer just about occasional redness or dryness. It has evolved. Today, it’s triggered by a complex mix of stress, pollution, lifestyle choices, and climate change, making symptoms harder to decode and manage. While skincare advice is everywhere, the overload of information can often do more harm than good, especially for skin that’s already compromised.

    This year, Cetaphil’s National Healthy Skin Mission (NHSM) returns with a bold reminder: “There’s More to Your Sensitive Skin.” Now in its sixth year, the campaign in collaboration with Watsons aims to go deeper—educating Filipinos on the many faces of sensitivity, from redness and irritation to rough texture and post-inflammatory pigmentation.

    This year’s theme is “There’s More To Your Sensitive Skin,” chosen because Galderma, as Cetaphil’s parent company, noted that most Filipinos don’t know that sensitive skin is a skin condition, not a skin type. “The Philippines is number one in ranking in terms of sensitive skin in Southeast Asia, and number six globally,” said Louie Roxas, General Manager at Galderma Philippines. “With this partnership with Watsons, our vision is for every Filipino to have healthy skin.”

    “This partnership marks a significant milestone in providing topnotch dermatological skincare solutions and expert advice to Filipinos, to help them understand that the way to healing sensitive skin is more than just knowing you have sensitive skin. It’s also having the knowledge on how to improve your skin’s health,” said Frank Patricio, Controller, Skincare, Cosmetics & Fragrances – Beauty Business Unit for Watsons.
    Introducing the Soothing & Comforting CICA Line Headlining this year’s campaign is the launch of Cetaphil’s latest innovation: the Soothing & Comforting Range, specially developed to instantly reduce redness and provides up to 24 hours of skin barrier protection.

    More than just a temporary solution, the new line addresses sensitivity at its core, thanks to Cetaphil’s Power Trio Blend:
    ● Centella Asiatica – a proven anti-inflammatory that calms and supports skin healing
    ● Allantoin – a gentle soothing agent that helps relieve discomfort
    ● Pentavitin – a powerful hydrator that locks in moisture for long-term barrier protection

    What sets this range apart is its dual-action approach: it soothes visible redness and strengthens the skin barrier to prevent future flare-ups—an essential upgrade for those who’ve outgrown short-term fixes.
    Anne Curtis Leads the Mission Bringing both star power and relatability to the campaign is Anne Curtis, Cetaphil’s brand ambassador and the featured guest at the NHSM 2025 launch.

    “As someone who’s always on the go, I’ve learned how stress, pollution, and even constant makeup can trigger sensitivity. It’s not just about products anymore—it’s about understanding what your skin really needs,” Anne shares. When she became a mother, she noticed her skin changing. “After giving birth, I noticed I was more prone to hyper-pigmentation. I didn’t know this meant I had sensitive skin too.” Her personal journey mirrors the campaign’s message: sensitivity is deeper than it appears, and it deserves expert-level care.

    Attendees of the launch can expect exclusive product experiences, limited-time promos, personalized skin consultations, and first dibs on the new Soothing and Comforting Range —making this not just a launch, but a full-on movement toward healthier, stronger skin.

    There’s More to your Sensitive Skin

    Whether you’re dealing with flare-ups, flakiness, or unexplained redness, Cetaphil’s message this year is clear: it’s time to look beyond the surface. According to Mark Sarmiento, Business Unit Head at Cetaphil, they noted that the Filipino skin care enthusiast has a misunderstanding about sensitive skin. “When the average person thinks they have sensitive skin, they assume that is the only problem. But our learnings from skin experts and Cetaphil Science is that there are different types of sensitive skin: sensitive skin that is redness-prone, hyperpigmentation-prone, or even for babies.”

    With dermatologist-developed solutions and a deeper understanding of sensitive skin, Cetaphil is here to help you understand it, treat it, and protect it with targeted solutions, no matter what kind of sensitive skin..

    Cetaphil, the renowned dermatologist-recommended skincare brand for sensitive skin, announced the newest additions to its lineup of brand ambassadors for 2025 during the Cetaphil SkinLabs event.

    The immersive and educational experience focused on sensitive skincare, coupled with the unveiling of Cetaphil’s re-brand, underscored the brand’s commitment to providing trustworthy, expert-backed skincare solutions.

    The stellar lineup of Cetaphil’s esteemed roster of ambassadors features Catriona Gray, Atasha Muhlach, and the newest ambassador, Donny Pangilinan.

    Rounding up the current list of endorsers are Anne Curtis, Solenn Heussaff, Nico Bolzico and Jess Wilson. Also in attendance were Bianca Gonzalez, Andi Manzano, Bea Fabregas and Ella and Hannah Pangilinan. Together, these voices unite to promote the brand’s message of safe, effective, and gentle skincare tailored for sensitive skin.

    The Role of Brand Ambassadors in Cetaphil’s Advocacy

    In an era where misinformation about skincare runs rampant across social media, Cetaphil recognizes the importance of bridging the knowledge gap in dermatology and skincare science. By collaborating with a diverse group of trusted personalities, the brand leverages their voices and platforms to counteract misinformation and empower consumers with dermatologist-approved advice.

    “At Cetaphil, we understand that sensitive skin is personal—everyone experiences it differently. That’s why we partner with brand ambassadors who not only experience sensitive skin themselves but also have unique skin stories that their followers can relate to,” said Louie Roxas, General Manager of Cetaphil Philippines. “By sharing their journeys, they help us spread dermatologist-approved advice and empower more people to care for their skin with confidence.”

    Personal Skin Stories and Connection to Cetaphil

    Beyond their advocacy roles, each ambassador shared their personal skin stories and connection to the brand at the Cetaphil SkinLabs event. From Catriona’s longstanding trust in Cetaphil for her on-the-go lifestyle to Donny Pangilinan’s journey with sensitive skin, these authentic narratives highlight why Cetaphil remains a cornerstone in many skincare routines.

    “Being here was meant to be,” said Donny Pangilinan. The young actor shared how he and his sisters all grew up using the brand. “We are proud Cetaphil babies. Growing up we all had sensitive skin, so our mom would always apply the products to hydrate and protect our skin. I’m so happy to be here, and I’m looking forward to this journey.”

    The Cetaphil SkinLabs Experience

    Cetaphil SkinLabs brought the brand’s dermatologist-backed research to life with an interactive and educational experience. Attendees learned about the science of sensitive skincare and were among the first to witness Cetaphil’s rebranding, designed to highlight the brand’s legacy of innovation and trust.

    “Cetaphil’s mission to make good skincare for all skin types, especially sensitive skin, is why they are my go-to brand,” said Gray, who, in addition to being a loyal user of Cetaphil also appreciated the science-first mindset of the event. “I was surprised to learn that the Philippines number 6 globally in terms of having sensitive skin, and the only Southeast Asian country in the top 10 list.”

  • From Isolation to Inclusion: Beiersdorf Philippines, Watsons, and Plan International Commit to Drive an Empowered Future for Young Women

    From Isolation to Inclusion: Beiersdorf Philippines, Watsons, and Plan International Commit to Drive an Empowered Future for Young Women

    Renewed partnership launches programs supporting girls’ mental health and career development.

    Girls hold the power to shape a brighter, more inclusive future—but far too many are held back by enduring biases and barriers that silence their voices, leave them isolated, and restrict their ability to realize their full potential. As the world celebrates the international Day of the Girl (IDG), there is a rousing call to action to create a world where girls are supported, included, and empowered to dream beyond limits.

    Heeding this call, Beiersdorf Philippines, Watsons, and Plan International Pilipinas reaffirmed their partnership to intensify initiatives toward the upliftment of girls in the country.

    Working side by side for two years now, the tripartite collaboration unites the members’ respective focus into a joint agenda charged to accelerate social change for young women. From last year’s programs and discussions about girl’s rights, gender equality, equitable and quality health services and economic resilience, the partnership expands their programs to include pressing concerns on understanding the disempowering impact of social isolation among girls, promoting mental health and wellbeing, as well as creating pathways for career development.

    As a brand that cares beyond skin, NIVEA of Beiersdorf, advocates for an inclusive society and aims to foster social cohesion through its global social mission, NIVEA CONNECT. Addressing the rise of social isolation among young women is critical because loneliness and lack of social connection increase their vulnerability to social injustices and hinder their overall development.

    Beauty retailer Watsons, on the other hand, aims to inspire holistic wellbeing, positivity and acts of care and kindness towards people, communities, and the planet. Part of its Sustainability goals under the People Pillar are their efforts to provide scholarships and career opportunities for the youth.

    Meanwhile, Plan International Pilipinas, a development, humanitarian, child and youth-girl-centered organization working in the Philippines has been at the forefront of advancing children’s rights and equality for girls since 1961. According to Plan International Pilipinas, girls’ mental health is one of the core foundations for their success and well-being. By prioritizing self-care and seeking support, they empower themselves to thrive in both their careers and personal lives. Moreover, advocating for girls’ overall wellness is part of its agenda for girls’ rights and empowerment. It encourages them to exercise their rights, prioritize their overall health, and shape their futures.

    For their IDG celebration, the three organizations mounted an event entitled “From Isolation to Inclusion: Empowering Girls, Shaping Futures,” that brought various stakeholders delivering learning modules on financial literacy, digital literacy, and career guidance to help girls from Punlaan School prepare for the future of work and navigate livelihood opportunities and professional empowerment.

    Beiersdorf Philippines Country Manager Nimisha Jain in her opening remarks said, “NIVEA’s CARE BEYOND SKIN Sustainability Agenda is guiding all our actions across three critical areas: consumer, society and environment, forming a holistic approach. We want to “Care beyond Skin” by empowering women so that they can thrive. She also shared findings from a NIVEA global study on social isolation which revealed that young people between 16-24 (38%), hybrid workers (52%), and heavy social media users (34%) feel the most isolated in society. She explained that breaking the cycle of social isolation entails building connections, fostering community, and having access to mental health resources, which are key components of NIVEA CONNECT.

    “This partnership today is a perfect example of all three elements coming together. I am confident that with our willing & committed partners, we can make a meaningful impact to empowering young women and transition them from Isolation to Inclusion”

    For the panel discussion, Beiersdorf Philippines Sales Director Jacques Baisa, Watsons SAVP for Marketing Communications, PR and Sustainability, Sharon Decapia, and Plan International Pilipinas Portfolio Manager for Gender Equality and Inclusion Twyla David dived deep into social isolation – how it has disadvantaged girls for centuries, interventions and solutions needed to stop the stigma, and how communities can create a support system for those in need.

    The event culminated with the turnover of the Php 1 million donation from Beiersdorf Philippines for the continuation of Watsons and Punlaan School Apprenticeship Program where students are trained with a TESDA certified curriculum to gain skills needed to succeed in the health and beauty retail space. Participants are also assured of a permanent job as Pharmacy Assistants in Watsons after they successfully complete the program.

    Lastly, the tripartite partnership was renewed in a MOA signing and formal declaration of support, reinforcing the institutions’ continued collaborative efforts.

    Watsons SAVP Sharon Decapia pointed out, “At Watsons, we understand that our responsibilities go beyond helping people care for their health and bring out their innate beauty. For us to be able to help girls become the best version of themselves, we have to open up avenues for learning and understanding what the future will be like, and what issues can affect them. This is what we have been doing with our partners – we are preparing them to be capable leaders of their families and communities.”

    Plan International Pilipinas Executive Director Ana Maria Locsin said, “Today, we stand united with Beiersdorf and Watsons in our shared commitment to transforming the lives of Filipino girls and young women. The theme of this year’s partnership event on social isolation resonates deeply with our mission of advancing children’s rights and equality for girls in the country.”

    “Gender equality and inclusion serve as powerful tools for understanding the barriers that prevent girls from accessing quality education, livelihood opportunities, and meaningful participation in decision-making. We firmly believe that when girls are empowered and included, they envision brighter futures for themselves and become catalysts for change, helping shape a world where we are all equal.”

    Executives from Beiersdorf Philippines, Watsons and Plan International renewed their partnership and signed a declaration of support as a continuing commitment to the agenda of accelerating social change for young women. In photo from left to right: Watsons Group Senior Category Manager, Zyra Tino Obias Plan International Portfolio Manager for Gender Equality and Inclusion, Twyla David Watsons Director for People Innovations Projects, Jose Arriola Beiersdorf Sales Director, Jacques Baisa Watsons SAVP for Marketing Communications, PR & Sustainability, Sharon Decapia Plan International Executive Director, Ana Maria Locsin Beiersdorf Country Manager, Nimisha Jain Plan International Program Director, Cathy Seco Beirsdorf Head of Route to Markets, Josefa Manese

    For NIVEA, the fight against social isolation goes beyond the Philippines as it looks to set up local NIVEA CONNECT projects with partners in forty countries by 2026. All its efforts are in service of Beiersdorf’s long-term commitment to champion a more inclusive society.
