Formulogic Debuts in Singapore with Science-Driven Barrier Care for Southeast Asia's Sensitive Skin

Formulogic Debuts in Singapore with Science-Driven Barrier Care for Southeast Asia’s Sensitive Skin

SINGAPORE, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Formulogic, a science- and evidence-driven dermocosmetic brand dedicated to sensitive skin, developed through dermatological research and clinical validation, officially debuted in Singapore at CONNEX-C Asia 2026, jointly organized by Society of Cosmetic Scientists (Singapore) (SCSS) and Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, unveiling its evidence-based barrier care philosophy and a comprehensive skincare system designed specifically for Southeast Asia’s unique climate and skin concerns.

The launch also disclosed new R&D findings from Formulogic’s in vivo clinical studies and introduced its Adaptive Care Loop, which identifies the skin’s condition, selects the appropriate product track, and applies a three-step Cleanse, Treat and Protect system. Moreover, Formulogic announced plans to increase its investment in skin science, as well as the establishment of Singapore Sensitive Skin Lab, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to bringing clinical-grade, prescription-like barrier repair into everyday skincare across Southeast Asia.

At the launch, Formulogic Chief R&D Scientist Dr. Arwen Liu noted that sensitive skin rarely stems from a single cause. Neuro-sensory, hormonal and emotional factors interact with heat, humidity, unhealthy lifestyle and product use, while the resulting barrier disruption presents differently in dry and oily skin, which is why no single solution can adequately address every barrier state.

Therefore, for dry-sensitive skin, the Barrier Guard B5 Series is led by Formulogic’s flagship Panthenol All-in-One Barrier Cream, formulated with 5% panthenol to replenish moisture, strengthen the skin barrier and soothe visible signs of sensitivity in a lightweight texture for daily use. For consumers with oily-sensitive skin, the B3-Ceramide Oil-Control Barrier Moisturizer combines five types of ceramides with 4% niacinamide to reinforce the skin barrier while helping balance excess sebum and calm blemish-prone skin without compromising hydration.

Formulogic Scientific Advisor Dr. Jun Ho Sang also addressed post-procedure physiology, noting that visible redness after laser, IPL or microneedling treatments may subside before the skin’s protective and water-retention functions fully recover. Post-procedure care requires staged support beyond surface soothing: limiting moisture loss, supporting lipid-barrier organization and avoiding early reintroduction of high-intensity actives. Formulogic addresses this through barrier-focused formulas combining hydration, comfort and lipid-supportive care to support resilience throughout recovery.

Formulogic will continue collaborating with dermatologists, scientists and industry experts to develop clinically validated skincare tailored to the evolving needs of Southeast Asian consumers. By combining scientific research, local innovation and barrier expertise, the brand aims to make professional skin barrier care more accessible and help more people build healthier skin for the long term.

New local beauty brand debuts with 3 essentials for a fuss-free routine

New local beauty brand debuts with 3 essentials for a fuss-free routine

Attention, beauty junkies: There’s a new local brand in town!

Ferca Beauty has officially launched in the Philippines, and it’s all about making routines easier and simpler without compromising the quality and fun of doing your makeup.

At an event held at the Century City Mall’s Events Center, the homegrown brand debuted with its initial product lineup: a lip gloss, a lip and cheek tint, and blush.

Speaking to GMA News Online, Ferca Beauty general manager Isabella Oca-Biron said that the brand’s premise is that makeup doesn’t have to be too fussy or too serious; it should be fun.

She also shared that the beauty brand is a product of Endure Medical, one of the country’s leading medical equipment suppliers.

“Ferca Beauty came like a project of Endure Medical to diversify and tap into the beauty industry,” she said.

“Coming from the medical industry, we already have credibility, and I think that’s very important because medical supplies and equipment really need to meet high standards, so we bring that [same standard of quality] to our makeup products,” she added.

For its initial release, Ferca Beauty has introduced Lip & Cheek Flush, Lip Gleam, and Blush Bloom – each with an introductory price of P199.

Lip & Cheek Flush is a light and hydrating water-gel tint that is non-sticky and long-wearing.

Meanwhile, Lip Gleam is a lip gloss that leaves your lips plump and dewy with high shine and a non-sticky formula.

Rounding up the trio is Blush Bloom, a creamy blush stick that can also be used as eyeshadow or lipstick.

Ferca Beauty is available online via TikTok Shop and Shopee. —JCB, GMA Integrated News
