MUJI introduces its gentle new skincare series formulated with natural ingredients to offer clean, effective care
A household name in Singapore, MUJI has been the go-to location for our daily essential needs and expanding upon this, the Japanese lifestyle brand has recently unveiled its newest skincare offerings that looks to seamlessly and easily integrate into our everyday routines.

These two carefully developed series prioritises skin health without unnecessary additives, featuring carefully selected natural ingredients and gentle, skin-friendly textures that offer clean, effective, and value-for-money daily skin care. For a more complete care routine, MUJI has detailed a step-by-step guide on how you can use products from both the Booster and Sensitive Skin Series. Image courtesy of MUJI. With the global growing interest in fermented and rice-derived skincare, MUJI has joined the conversation with its own proprietary formulation that is rooted in simplicity and quality. At the heart of the Booster Series is MUJI's proprietary Fermented Rice Bran Extract that is crafted from rice bran produced in Yamagata, Japan, which is cultivated with mountain water that is rich in seven types of vitamins and eight types of mineral.

Traditionally removed during rice polishing, the nutrient-dense layer of the rice brand is carefully transformed through a gentle fermentation process into a moisturising liquid that helps to refine your skin texture and boost hydration. Through fermentation, MUJI gives new purpose to the rice bran, along with its derived yeast extract and rice bran oil, to enhance the rice bran's moisturising properties.

In an effort to ensure it is gentle for all skin types, the formulation is alcohol-free; a result achieved by refining the fermentation process and carefully removing alcohol after fermentation, and help to make it an effective yet gentle ingredient that supports the skin's natural texture and hydration. The Booster Series features two essential products namely the Booster Serum and the Booster Essence Lotion. Both of which have been designed to soften the outer skin layer and improve the penetration of toning water and other moisture-based elements. Booster Serum ($20.90) is one of MUJI Japan's top-selling items, offering a rich, water-free formula that contains over 65% Fermented Rice Bran Extract to give you firmness, elasticity, and deep hydration for dry or moisture-depleted skin. 'I found this particularly useful as part of my nighttime routine as I slept in an air-conditioned room. My skin would feel dry and I would have a dull complexion that looked as if I didn't have enough rest (even with 8 hours of sleep!). However, since using the Booster Serum, I have noticed a brighter complexion in the morning and lesser dry skin flakes when I put on my makeup,' said Jasmine, Senior Writer at NYLON Singapore. For those who prefer a lightweight texture, the Booster Essence Lotion ($5.90 for 50ml | $16.90 for 300ml) provides a light, refreshing formula that is infused with Fermented Rice Bran Extract and ceramides as moisturising ingredients for quick absorption. Suitable for oily or combination skin, all you'll need to do is apply the lotion with a portion that is about the size of a 10-cent coin and massage it onto your face. 'As someone who does not like using skincare in the night, I was surprised to find that I really liked using the Booster Essence Lotion because of its lightweight formula. Gone were the worries of having my skincare smeared onto my bed covers as the lotion was able to dry fairly quickly before I climb into bed,' said Jasmine. This series is free from harsh chemicals and is made with no colouring, no mineral oil, no synthetic fragrance. It is also paraben-free, alcohol-free, phenoxyethanol-free, and has undergone allergy and stinging tests to ensure gentleness on your skin. Get gentle, deeply moisturising care for all types of skin, including those with sensitive or easily irritated skin, with MUJI's Sensitive Skin Series which has been thoughtfully formulated with 100% natural ingredients. Ideal for first-time skincare users too, this low-irritation series is also free from synthetic fragrances, colourants, paragons, alcohol, and phenoxyethanol. Since sensitive skin often lacks ceramides, the series has been formulated with ceramides as a key ingredient to reinforce barrier function, helping to maintain your skin's natural barrier and to lock in moisture. The formulation also includes five types of amino acids to support moisture retention in your skin's outer layers, and three plant extracts which include the newly added Eucalyptus Leaf Extract and Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate to help soothe and prevent skin roughness.

The All-in-One Gel ($15.90) serves as a convenient one-step solution if you're looking for a quick and fuss-free skincare product, while a fuller routine for optimal hydration may include the Toning Water, Moisturising Milk, and Moisturising Cream. As every person has different skin needs, the Toning Water (from $4.90) and Moisturising Milk (from $4.90) are also available in three variations — Light, Moisture and Deep Moisture — giving you the ability to customise your preferred routine based on your skin's condition. If you've been looking for a beauty product that helps with the first step to clear skin, then MUJI's Pre Lotion is might just do the trick. Image courtesy of MUJI. Designed to remove impurities, the Pre Lotion ($15.90) acts as a gentle exfoliating lotion that is enriched with lactic acid to clear dirt and sebum from pores while helping to prepare your skin for the rest of your daily skincare routine. All you'll have to do is apply a small amount to a cotton pad and gently wipe your face after cleansing.

MUJI reopens Bugis Junction outlet with twice the space and a wider variety of products to meet your everyday needs
Having recently opened their stores in Punggol and Great World City, MUJI has another surprise up their sleeves with the reopening of their Bugis outlet — now expanded with twice the space and a wider product selection guaranteed to meet all of your daily needs. Store rendering of MUJI Bugis Junction. Image courtesy of MUJI Singapore. Bugis is known for being a dynamic hub that connects the historic Civic District with the busy CBD, and MUJI Bugis Junction has since grown alongside the precinct's transformation in its prime location. From its early days where it was a compact retail space to now, a lifestyle destination with double the assortment of daily necessities across categories such as household items, stationery, home organisation tools, travel essentials, and apparel.

Seeing Bugis evolve into a crossroads of culture, commerce and community, MUJI Bugis Junction has also kept pace with the shifting needs of its visitors by providing an expanded space to allow a deeper connection with the district's wide-ranging demographic, from office professionals and tertiary students to tourists and families. This new expansion is a response to how customers' needs and lifestyles have evolved — providing more space, more choices and a refreshed experience that well reflects the simplicity, functionality and thoughtfulness of what MUJI stands for. Lap Desk Cushion in Grey Beige/Brown, $59. Image courtesy of MUJI Singapore. To celebrate the re-opening, MUJI Bugis Junction is offering you a chance to get first dibs on a brand new colour of the Lap Desk Cushion ($59). Available now in Grey Beige/Brown, this cushion turns your lap into an instant, comfortable workspace that is ideal for working, reading, or relaxing on your sofa or bed. Filled with soft polystyrene beads, the cushion helps to ensure comfort during extended use, and its compact packaging makes it easy to carry on-the-go. Plus, the cover is machine-washable so you don't have to worry about cleaning it when it gets dirty! If you're seeking a new type of skincare to try, MUJI Bugis Junction is where you'll find MUJI's latest launch — the Booster Essence Lotion and Serum. Video courtesy of MUJI Singapore. These new skincare products are made using fermented rice extract, a moisturising ingredient developed exclusively by MUJI, that come from rice bran produced in the Yamagata Prefecture in Japan, and contains 7 kinds of vitamins and 8 types of minerals. Why rice bran? It is a nutrient-rich layer that is removed when brown rice is polished into white rice. MUJI has harnessed its natural benefits through a gentle yeast fermentation process to create rice bran ferment filtrate — a moisturising, fast-absorbing ingredient that leaves skin feeling firm, hydrated, and smooth. The formulation is alcohol-free to ensure gentleness for all skin types and is achieved through refining the fermentation process to carefully remove alcohol after fermentation. MUJI has also embraced zero-waste innovation by using rice bran oil and yeast extract from the remaining material, to ensure that they make the most out of every grain. Image courtesy of MUJI Singapore. The Booster Serum ($20.90, 50ml), a crowd favourite in MUJI Japan, is formulated with over 65% fermented rice bran extract. Renowned for delivering deep moisture and improving skin's firmness, the serum also has a thick, viscous texture that makes it ideal for dry and sensitive skin types, or anyone who prefers a rich, deep moisturising feel. Designed to enhance skin hydration and softness, the Booster Essence Lotion ($5.90, 30ml | $16.90, 300ml) is a lightweight booster essence lotion that is perfect for softening rough or dry skin to leave your complexion feeling plum, smooth, and deeply hydrated. It is also formulated for quick absorption — ideal for those with oily to oily-dry combination skin types, or those who prefer a light, refreshing texture. You are recommended to use either products (based on your skin type) before applying toning water. This helps to prep your skin to allow moisturising ingredients to be absorbed more easily into the stratum corneum — to leave your skin feeling bouncy, smooth and firm. Both products are also free from six types of harsh chemicals namely synthetic fragrance, colouring, mineral oil, paragons, alcohol, and phenoxyethanol. In addition to the new product launch, you can also enjoy exclusive opening special deals only available at MUJI Bugis Junction from 22 to 25 May. Here's a look at what you can expect to find. 1.
