At the media launch today at Jade, The Fullerton Hotel Singapore, the spotlight was on radiant, healthy skin as Winona, China’s leading derma-skincare brand for sensitive skin, made its much-anticipated debut in Singapore. The intimate afternoon event, hosted by Winona Singapore, brought together beauty enthusiasts, media, and skincare experts for an exclusive first look at the brand’s science-backed products and an experience that was as elegant as it was insightful.
We were treated to a personalised crystal bar activity symbolising clarity and balance, setting the tone for what Winona stands for: skincare that heals, protects, and restores. I had the chance to interact with the brand’s spokespersons and try some of the hero products firsthand and I must say, the sunscreen and serum were definite standouts. Both felt incredibly lightweight and soothing, perfect for Singapore’s humid climate and my easily reactive skin.
Winona is rooted in dermatology, powered by botanical science
Founded in 2010, Winona has become one of China’s most trusted derma-skincare brands, known for its dermatologist-developed formulas that merge clinical research with Yunnan’s natural botanicals. The brand’s philosophy is simple yet profound that sensitive skin deserves care that goes beyond temporary relief. Every product is designed to strengthen the skin barrier from within, helping users build long-term resilience and comfort.
Making its Singapore debut, Winona introduced its flagship Sensitiveness Relieving Moisturizing Tolerance-Extreme Range, a collection that addresses redness, dullness, and recurring sensitivity. Central to this line is the Himalayan Cherry PROMAX (Prinsepia Utilis Royle), a healing fruit rich in unsaturated fatty acids. Through Winona’s patented cold extraction and refining process, it becomes the Prinsepia Utilis PROMAX Seed Oil, clinically proven to enhance skin barrier repair by up to 20%.
Skincare that calms, protects and restores
The range’s hero, the Tolerance-Extreme Cream, promises fast relief from redness and irritation; results show a 73% reduction in redness within just 15 minutes. It’s joined by the Tolerance-Extreme Essence, which strengthens the skin barrier by more than 100% while improving texture and glow. The Cleanser and Lotion complete the range, ensuring gentle yet thorough care from cleansing to hydration.
What stood out during the event was how Winona’s team emphasised evidence-based skincare without compromising on sensorial experience. The formulations feel luxurious but not heavy, perfect for those of us who want effective skincare that doesn’t overwhelm sensitive skin.
A new standard in sun protection
One of the most exciting products unveiled was the Aqua-Shield Sunblock Milk SPF50+++, designed especially for Singapore’s climate. It combines physical and chemical filters to block 99% of UV rays while preventing post-sun irritation. Infused with bisabolol, ginger root, and dandelion root extracts, it soothes inflammation and defends against pollution-induced stress. When I tried it at the event, it absorbed instantly and left a velvety matte finish, no white cast, no stickiness, just light protection that felt breathable on the skin.

A fresh start for sensitive skin
As someone who’s constantly on the lookout for gentle yet effective products, I left the launch feeling genuinely excited about what Winona brings to Singapore’s skincare scene. In a market flooded with harsh actives and over-promising claims, Winona’s dermatologist-approved approach feels like a breath of fresh air, one that reminds us that caring for sensitive skin doesn’t have to mean compromising on results.
