There’s a deluge of skincare products in the market today, but only a few stands out in quality such as the Japanese brand Target Pro by Watsons.
Japanese Skincare Harmony
Japanese “zen,” is synonymous to harmony, tranquility, and equilibrium. The same aspects idealize good skin—the promises found in every bottle of Target Pro by Watsons.

Launch at Hotel Okura Manila
I recently attended their Japanese Zen-inspired launch held at Hotel Okura Manila, where they unveiled their new collection of serums.
The serum collection from the leader in personal care in the Philippines welcomed influencers and skincare enthusiasts. The gathering celebrated the harmony found in true beauty and gave deeper insight into the Japanese innovation that pioneers the science behind Target Pro by Watsons.
Known for its revolutionary Japanese skincare technology, what I like most is their ‘targetted’ approach where each product is intentional for a specific concern.

Here’s a closer look at the unique benefits each serum offers:
● Boosting Serum: With a potent 10% Vitamin C concentrate, this serum works to correct skin complexion, lightening dark spots and hyperpigmentation for a more even and radiant glow.
● Pore Care Intensive Serum: Formulated with MINIPORYL and salicylic acid, this serum refines skin texture, reducing blackheads and minimizing pore visibility. In just four weeks, it helps reduce blemishes for a smoother appearance.
● Whitening Intensive Serum: Infused with Diamond Sirt, three types of Vitamin C, and Vitamin B3, this serum evens out skin tone while reviving natural radiance and firmness, leaving you with a luminous complexion.
● Age Defense Serum: Enriched with Diamond Sirt and a New Capsule Wrinkle Solution, this age-defying serum reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles, enhancing skin resilience, firmness, and elasticity for a rejuvenated look.
● Hydration Serum: Powered by hyaluronic acid and Vitamin B5, this serum deeply hydrates the skin, boosting moisture levels for a plump, refreshed, and supple feel.
But my favorite is the “Age-Defying” serum. At my age where a lot of changes past prime occurs, skincare is now even more critical.
