Revolutionising Skin Health | Guardian Malaysia Rolls Out AI-Powered Checks with Derma Expert Pharmacist Guidance

 

guardian Malaysia announced that its pharmacists nationwide are now Certified Derma Experts



These pharmacists have the right ‘know-how’ to professionally consult and address shoppers’ skincare questions, especially in the specialised areas of derma skincare and sensitive skin needs.



A private preview comprising close to 150 media representatives, influencers and invited shoppers was held to allow guests to have a first-hand, personalised 1-1 consultation with the Certified Derma Experts. Skin health check counters as well as skincare solution booths were made available at this event besides an accompanying workshop session. 



guardian pharmacists’ upgraded knowledge is paired with the latest AI-powered Skin Health Check tool as Malaysia’s No. 1 Health & Beauty Retailer* rolls out this upgraded in-store consultation experience across stores nationwide. 



The Korean designed Skin Health Check device helps shoppers discover their skin needs across 12 insights i.e. wrinkles, dark circles, blemishes, pores and acnes, amongst others – ALL in just 3 minutes. 



Priscilla Wu, Managing Director, guardian Malaysia, said: “As the trusted and preferred go-to-destination for everything skincare, guardian Malaysia is proud to be the first health & beauty retailer in this country to champion the need for pharmacists to be derma skin experts.” 



Priscilla added that this effort is made through guardian’s Radiance Academy that works with brand partners to structure and organise a curriculum that is focused on the increasing issues of eczema, acne, hyperpigmentation and sensitive skin faced by Malaysians out there. 



As part of the structured curriculum, pharmacists are exposed to curated topics on skin health that are conducted by speakers and trainers who are experts from our brand partners as well as Malaysia’s leading dermatologists. 



Expert Says: Skincare and its link to overall wellbeing


Present at the event is one such expert, dermatologist Dr Ch’ng Chin Chwen, who said: “Many Malaysians ‘forget’ that the skin is our body’s largest organ. It acts as an important ‘shield’ for the individual’s protection, sensory organ, synthesis of Vitamin D and regulation of the body temperature. 



Therefore, it is important to care for the skin given its critical and multi-faceted role in supporting an individual’s health and wellbeing.” 



Given the increasing prevalence of derma skin issues and sensitive skin needs, are Malaysians equipped with the right knowledge to care for their skin health? 



Access to expert-level advice can be further enhanced and knowledge is power. When skin consultation and analysis is done right, the awareness of what’s not right with the health of the skin will then enable the selection of the right solution to improve it,” added Dr Ch’ng.


guardian Pharmacists: Your friendly Derma Expert around your neighbourhood 



Expert-level advice should not be misunderstood to be everything that one reads right out of the Internet or hearsay from extended families, friends and colleagues. 



There is information overdose. And, there is also misinformation. Shoppers are either confused or misguided,"added Priscilla.



The intention to provide shoppers with personalised, 1-1 skin analysis using our AI-powered tool and to enable them access to the ‘right information’ gave birth to Radiance Academy



Working with brand partners in curating the right mix of courses in the curriculum for guardian Pharmacists, it has been an upskilling effort in continuous professional development to gain CME points (Continuous Medical Education) at the same time. 



“The roll-out of our AI-powered Skin Health Check and your pharmacist’s certification of Derma Expertise underline guardian Malaysia’s commitment to empowering YOU with the right knowledge and guidance towards healthier skin,” concluded Priscilla. 



Everyone with derma skin concerns is welcomed to speak to the Certified Derma Experts

SWOON OVER MID-AUTUMN – TOGETHER, HERE AT PAVILION BUKIT JALIL TO HONOUR TRADITION AND TOGETHERNESS

 

As the full moon graces the night sky, Pavilion Bukit Jalil invites shoppers to celebrate Mid-Autumn traditions and togetherness at its “Swoon Over Mid-Autumn” Festival, taking place now until 6 October 2025 at Level 2, Centre Court. 



This year’s festivities transform the mall into a vibrant showcase of colourful lanterns, captivating cultural performances, interactive workshops, a spectacular lantern parade, and delectable mooncake offerings — creating the perfect setting to relive cherished memories while making new ones with family and friends.



This year, Pavilion Bukit Jalil sweetens the Mid-Autumn experience with an impressive spread of more than 20 varieties of mooncakes, featuring a delightful mix of halal and non-halal selections alongside traditional favourites and bold, modern creations. 



From beautifully packaged mooncakes that make thoughtful gifts to indulgent flavours perfect for self-enjoyment, the offerings celebrate both heritage and innovation. 



To elevate the experience further, shoppers can also discover a premium selection of teas, thoughtfully curated to pair perfectly with mooncakes. 



Together, this harmonious duo invites visitors to slow down, savour every bite and sip, and celebrate the Mid-Autumn spirit in a way that is both inclusive and memorable.



“Mid-Autumn is one of the most cherished times of the year, filled with traditions that bring people together. At Pavilion Bukit Jalil, we’ve gone beyond festive décor to curate experiences that families and friends can truly enjoy, from sampling mooncakes and pairing them with tea, to watching cultural performances and walking in the lantern parade. 



We hope our shoppers will see the mall as not only a place to shop, but a destination to gather, celebrate and create meaningful moments,” said Dato’ Joyce Yap, Chief Executive Officer of Retail, Kuala Lumpur Pavilion Sdn Bhd.



One of the highlights of this year’s celebration is the extensive mooncake selection, where tradition meets innovation in every bite. Shoppers can indulge in the delicate Bird’s Nest Mooncakes from JYNNS, a luxurious treat that combines wellness with indulgence, or savour Royce’s velvety Chocolate Mooncakes, crafted with the brand’s signature finesse. Oloiya continues to charm with its timeless flavours, where every mooncake is infused with heartfelt storytelling and craftsmanship, while Yong Sheng delights with its halal-certified classics — recipes passed down through generations that never fail to evoke nostalgia. 



For those seeking refinement, Grand Harbour presents mooncakes made with premium ingredients, while Herbal Farmer offers wholesome halal varieties such as lotus, red bean, and five nuts, each baked to perfection. To elevate the experience, shoppers can pair these mooncakes with refreshing teas from ChuChat, zesty and cooling drinks from Mixue, or the award-winning, rich flavours of YuYan Tea — each sip designed to complement the season’s delicacies. Completing the festive picture, Fine Star Lanterns bathe the mall in a warm, joyful glow, creating the perfect ambience for families and friends to celebrate together under one roof.



Beyond the Centre Court, Pavilion Bukit Jalil remains a one-stop destination for mooncake shopping, with many tenants joining in the festive spirit. Shoppers can indulge in both traditional and contemporary flavours from Grandmama’s (Level 1, Orange Zone), The Food Merchant (Level 1, Orange Zone), Lavender (Level 1, Orange Zone), Oriental Kopi (Level 1, Orange Zone), Din Tai Fung (Level 1, Orange Zone), Inside Scoop (Level 3, Pink Zone), and many more across the mall. 



To elevate the experience, pair your mooncakes with wellness teas from Que Tang Yu Fang (Level 2, Pink Zone), which blends Chinese traditional herbs with modern wellness innovation. With such a wide selection of mooncakes and wellness teas under one roof, Pavilion Bukit Jalil is the perfect place to pick up your favourite Mid-Autumn treats while soaking in the festive ambience.



To heighten the festive cheer, shoppers can take part in Pavilion Bukit Jalil’s Gift-With-Purchase (GWP) campaign, where delightful rewards such as RM20 Parkson Gift Vouchers and a pair of movie passes await throughout the season — the perfect little treats to make shopping even sweeter. Redemptions are on a first-come, first-served basis at the Gift Redemption Counter, Level 4 (Pink Zone), from 19 September to 6 October 2025.



The celebrations will then shine brightest on 4 October 2025 (Saturday) with the highly anticipated Lantern Parade. Picture the mall coming alive as families, friends, and little ones walk side by side, carrying colourful lanterns that twinkle with every step. 



Participation is free with registration via the Pavilion Privileges mobile app, and those who register early will receive exclusive goodies, including paper lanterns and festive bags, adding to the magic of the evening. With laughter in the air and lanterns lighting the path, the parade promises to be a joyful spectacle of unity, tradition, and togetherness — a Mid-Autumn moment to remember at Pavilion Bukit Jalil.
