Happy 57th Birthday guardian Malaysia | Marks its 57th Birthday by Continuing to Nurture the Beauty and Wellbeing of Malaysians


guardian Malaysia celebrates its 57th year of operations with a series of activities that reinforce its commitment to nurturing the beauty and wellbeing of Malaysians. These activities include:





Pink October campaign in collaboration with Kundal and The National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM) to raise awareness, expand access, and drive action in the nation’s fight against breast cancer.


 

The launch of new, exclusive beauty and wellbeing brands in guardian Malaysia’s stores nationwide and online, culminating in an official event later this month at guardian The Exchange TRX mall to celebrate these exciting new offerings.

 


An exclusive 57% discount promotion on the purchase of the second item across 3,000 products, available both in-store and online throughout the month.


 


Through these initiatives, guardian Malaysia aims to remind and encourage Malaysians from all walks of life to prioritize nurturing their own beauty and wellbeing.


 



Anna Ng, Marketing Director of guardian Malaysia, emphasized:

“Outer beauty and inner wellbeing require daily nurturing. This includes having knowledge about what’s good for you and being able to access the ‘right choice’ of beauty and wellbeing products.”

 


Pink October: Guardian Malaysia Steps Up in the Fight Against Breast Cancer

Breast cancer remains the #1 cancer affecting women in Malaysia, with 1 in 19 women being diagnosed. Due to a lack of awareness and low rates of early detection—especially among lower-income households—nearly half of the cases are only confirmed in the late stages (Stages 3 and 4). 



This has resulted in a low 5-year survival rate of 66.8% which is much lower than other Asian countries such as Singapore (79%), South Korea (92.6%), and Japan (96.2%).

 


Early detection is crucial in combating breast cancer. In partnership with Kundal and The National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM), guardian Malaysia will introduce an exclusive Pink Glove breast self-examination kit.


 

It includes a scrub glove with self-examination steps, two bottles of body wash, and one body scrub, retailing at RM23.88.



For every Pink Glove kit sold, part of proceeds will be contributed to NCSM to support work in education, awareness, and early detection programs for breast cancer.

 

Additionally, 10,000 Pink Glove kits will be set aside and distributed by NCSM to underprivileged women across Malaysia.




Dr. Murallitharan Munisamy
, Managing Director of NCSM, said:

 

“We are grateful to guardian Malaysia for stepping up efforts to improve access to breast cancer self-examinations. The Pink Glove kit, coupled with the awareness campaign, donation drive, and distribution to underprivileged women, offers a holistic approach to addressing breast cancer across all demographics.”

 


Throughout Pink October, guardian will run a digital campaign to raise awareness about early detection, including a video by Dr. Tan Gie Hooi, Breast & Oncoplastic Surgeon, on the importance of early detection.

 


Additionally, NCSM will host informative sessions on breast cancer awareness at guardian The Exchange TRX mall from 21 to 27 October 2024, alongside educational and screening campaigns targeting underprivileged communities at Program Perumahan Rakyat (PPR) Hiliran Ampang. 



October’s Special: Launch of Exclusive New Brands at Guardian Malaysia

 

“guardian Malaysia continues to curate the best beauty and wellbeing brands for our customers. As part of our 57th-anniversary celebration, we are launching more than 20 new and exclusive brands this month,” added Anna.

 


These new brands will be available in stores and online starting from the 1st week of October 2024.

 

 


October Anniversary Party: 57% Discounts Galore – This Month Only!

 

To celebrate its 57th anniversary, guardian is offering a 57% discount on the second item across over 3,000 selected products throughout October 2024.

In response to the growing demand for online shopping, guardian Malaysia is also proud to announce the launch of its new e-catalogue—a more convenient and engaging way for customers to explore our extensive range of health and beauty products. 


 

The interactive e-catalogue is designed to enhance the browsing experience, making it seamless and mobile-friendly.  With a fresh, modern look and feel, the e-catalogue features interactive elements and directly link users to Guardian’s e-commerce platform for easy, hassle-free purchases.

Westwood Clinic Leads Way to Corrective Aesthetic Movement In Malaysia


 

In a ground-breaking initiative, Dr. Jest Wong has pioneered the Corrective Aesthetic Movement in accordance with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals’ (UNGC) 10 principles, challenging conventional beauty norms while emphasizing the importance of inner beauty and mental wellness. Corrective Aesthetic stands for the belief that beauty emanates from within and should be accessible to all.


As the initiator behind this campaign, Dr. Jest Wong contends that true beauty is not solely determined by outward appearances. According to him, the most radiant smiles come from within, prompting all Westwood Clinic and participant clinics to integrate mental wellness practices into their aesthetic treatments.



Westwood Clinic has taken a bold step as the first ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) clinic in Malaysia. Aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 3, 16, and 17, the clinic actively promotes good health and well-being, peace and justice, and partnerships. Corrective Aesthetic thrives on inclusivity, with individuals striving to create a positive impact in the world and community.


Despite the comprehensive approach to mental wellness, the price of treatments at Westwood Clinic remains well within budget, ensuring that quality results are not compromised.


Dr. Jest Wong, in an exclusive interview, emphasized that his motivation stems from a desire to contribute to a better Malaysia and humanity at large. The Corrective Aesthetic Movement has garnered widespread support through awareness campaigns, charity initiatives, and collaborative discussions.



United Nation Global Compact, Universities globally, NGOs, and government sectors have rallied behind the movement, turning Corrective Aesthetic into a championed cause under a project umbrella where all participants can contribute their strengths.


This noble movement is reshaping the aesthetic landscape, challenging taboos and stigmas surrounding beauty and mental health awareness. Dr. Jest Wong's philosophy, encapsulated in the mantra, "To make a country a better place, it doesn't just start from who you vote for but requires a correct mindset and a kind heart," is gaining momentum, inspiring positive change and fostering a society that values holistic well-being over conventional standards of beauty.




The entire core team member of this project is aligning with UN global compact principles while working hard tirelessly in ensuring a new benchmark is set in the aesthetic and mental wellness industry.
