Celebrating 185 years of care: Watsons continues to champion women’s health and wellness

At Watsons, women’s health and wellness are at the heart of its commitment to supporting women at every stage of life. Today’s modern woman rarely fits into just one role. She moves between different priorities, responsibilities and routines, often balancing several at once. With so much to juggle, having someone to turn to for trusted health guidance can make a difference. At Watsons, pharmacists serve as Health Besties who are there to listen, answer questions and guide women toward choices that fit their needs. By making health guidance part of the everyday Watsons experience, they help make conversations about women’s health more approachable. This approach builds on 185 years of A.S. Watson Group’s experience in health and beauty retail, bringing its long-standing legacy of care into the way Watsons supports women today. Supporting her health at every stage There is no single definition of what being “well” looks like. Women have different health and wellness priorities depending on their lifestyles, concerns and stages of life, and finding the right solutions can sometimes feel overwhelming. Watsons brings together a wide range of products and services to support women’s changing health and wellness needs, with health at the core of the experience. From vitamins and supplements that support everyday nutrition to prescription and over-the-counter medicines, women can find support for both everyday and more specific health needs. Free consultations and vaccination services also encourage women to take a more proactive approach to their health. These needs extend beyond health alone, with skin care, hair care, personal care and beauty essentials also supporting the different ways women care for themselves. “At Watsons, we understand that women’s wellness is personal and constantly evolving. Her needs can change depending on her lifestyle, her priorities and the stage of life she is in. We want to make it easier for every woman to take care of herself by giving her access to trusted health, wellness, beauty and personal care solutions all in one place,” said Sharon Decapia, senior assistant vice president for marketing, public relations and sustainability at Watsons Philippines. Celebrating eight years of more with Watsons Club Having access to the right solutions is one thing; getting more value from every Watsons visit is another. For women who rely on Watsons for the everyday essentials that help them take care of themselves, Watsons Club adds another layer of value to the experience, with exclusive rewards, savings and benefits available in stores and online. As Watsons Club celebrates its eighth anniversary, members have even more reasons to celebrate. For eight years, Watsons Club has been part of members’ everyday health, wellness, beauty and personal care journeys, giving them more ways to enjoy their Watsons experience. For women navigating different routines and priorities, these member benefits offer additional ways to make everyday self-care and wellness more rewarding. For its anniversary, Watsons Club is offering more rewards and exclusive benefits for members. Members can look for green tags across Watsons stores to enjoy exclusive rewards. Being a member means getting more out of every Watsons visit. One way members can celebrate is through the Watsons Club Anniversary E-Raffle.
