Beauty lovers in Singapore have another exciting reason to plan a shopping trip to Metro Paragon this October and November. The Skin Lab pop-up at MINIMUSE is bringing together premium skincare brands, complimentary beauty experiences, attractive shopping discounts and fun activities that make discovering new beauty products even more enjoyable.
Running from 26 October to 5 November 2026, this limited-time beauty event is a great opportunity to explore skincare from popular brands such as Albion, Elizabeth Arden, La Prairie, POLA and SK-II. Whether shoppers are looking to refresh their skincare routine, discover products suited to their skin concerns or simply enjoy a few beauty freebies, there is plenty to explore during this promotion.
Visitors can look forward to complimentary AI skin analysis, a photobooth experience, a pom-pom scooping game with chances to win beauty samples, and discounts of up to 20% at participating brands. There is also a skincare sampling kit for those who enjoy trying products before committing to full-sized purchases.
With free admission and several activities to enjoy, this pop-up offers more than an ordinary beauty shopping trip. Here is what shoppers can look forward to and how they can make the most of their visit.
Discover Your Skin’s Needs with Free AI Skin Analysis
Choosing the right skincare products can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when there are so many brands, ingredients and product claims to consider. A product that works well for one person might not necessarily suit someone else’s skin.
That is where the complimentary AI skin analysis at The Skin Lab comes in. Visitors can take the opportunity to explore their skin’s needs through this technology-assisted experience and learn more about areas they may wish to address in their skincare routine.
After completing the analysis, visitors will also receive a free printed photobooth strip, giving them a little souvenir to remember the experience.
This activity is worth considering for anyone who enjoys beauty technology or wants a more interactive way to explore skincare. It can also be a useful starting point for conversations with beauty consultants about suitable products.
However, an AI skin analysis is best treated as a beauty guidance tool rather than a medical diagnosis. Anyone experiencing persistent skin problems should seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
Play the Pom-Pom Scooping Game for a Chance to Win Beauty Samples
Who says beauty shopping has to be all about browsing shelves and comparing prices? The Skin Lab is adding a playful twist with a pom-pom scooping game that gives visitors a chance to win beauty samples.
The challenge is simple: participants have 30 seconds to scoop as many pom-poms as possible. For every three pom-poms collected, they earn one gachapon turn, offering a chance to win beauty samples from participating brands.
It is a fun activity to enjoy with friends or family members while exploring the pop-up. Better still, the possibility of bringing home skincare samples makes the game particularly appealing to shoppers who like discovering new products without immediately spending money on full-sized versions.
Samples are especially useful when trying unfamiliar skincare products, as they allow shoppers to explore a product’s texture, fragrance and application before deciding whether it deserves a place in their regular routine.
As prizes and promotional items are available while stocks last, visitors should consider joining the activity early during their visit. The number and type of samples available may vary, so winning a particular product is not guaranteed.
Enjoy Up to 20% Off Selected Premium Skincare Brands
One of the biggest attractions of this pop-up is the opportunity to save on selected premium skincare products.
Participating brands are offering the following discounts:
- 15% off on weekdays
- 20% off on weekends
The weekend discount excludes SK-II, so shoppers interested in that brand should check the applicable promotional terms before making a purchase.
For anyone who has been planning to replenish their skincare essentials, this promotion could provide a useful opportunity to compare prices and purchase products they already know and enjoy. Shoppers interested in trying a new moisturiser, serum, cleanser or other skincare essential can also use the event to explore the participating brands in one location.
Brands featured at The Skin Lab include Albion, Elizabeth Arden, La Prairie, POLA and SK-II. With several premium names participating, visitors can browse different skincare ranges and speak with beauty staff about the products available.
A smart way to approach the promotion is to prepare a shopping list before arriving. Check which products are running low at home, compare the prices of the items you genuinely need and calculate the savings before paying.
Although a 20% discount can be attractive, it is still worth checking the final price and any exclusions. Buying products that suit your needs is a better way to save than purchasing extra items simply because they are on offer.
Build Your Own Beauty Discovery Kit for $55
For shoppers who enjoy trying several products at once, The Skin Lab is also offering a skincare sampling kit priced at $55.
The kit includes a selection of beauty and lifestyle extras designed to make product discovery more exciting. According to the promotion details, the package contains:
- Six skincare samples
- A $45 voucher for participating skincare brands
- A MINIMUSE pouch
- Three fragrance vials
- A $20 fragrance voucher
- A plushie blind box
This combination could appeal to beauty enthusiasts who want to explore different skincare products while enjoying a few additional treats.
The six skincare samples provide an opportunity to discover products from participating brands, while the fragrance vials offer a chance to explore different scents. The MINIMUSE pouch is a practical extra for keeping smaller beauty items together, whether at home or when travelling.
The kit also includes two vouchers, one for participating skincare brands and another for fragrance. These may offer additional value for shoppers who already intend to purchase eligible products.
Before buying, remember to check the vouchers’ terms, including their validity periods, minimum spending requirements, participating brands and any exclusions. The advertised voucher values should not automatically be treated as cash savings, as their usefulness depends on the applicable redemption conditions.
For shoppers who regularly purchase premium skincare or enjoy sampling new beauty products, the $55 kit may be worth considering. Those who prefer to try the complimentary activities first can also visit the pop-up without purchasing the kit, as admission is free.
Join Skincare Workshops and Complimentary One-to-One Consultations
Visitors who want to learn more about skincare can also explore the expert sessions available during the event.
Paid skincare workshops take place every Monday and Tuesday from 5pm to 6pm, with a participation fee of $30. These sessions provide an opportunity for beauty enthusiasts to spend time learning about skincare and improving their understanding of their routine.
For a more personalised experience, visitors can book a complimentary one-to-one consultation from 6pm to 8.30pm. These consultations are intended to help shoppers discuss their skin concerns and explore a personalised skincare routine.
Deluxe samples are included, subject to the stated terms and availability.
These sessions may be particularly useful for people who have accumulated several skincare products but are unsure how to use them together, or for those who want to explore alternatives to their current routine.
Rather than buying products based entirely on social media recommendations, visitors can use the consultation to ask questions and learn more about their options. It is sensible to mention any known sensitivities and check product ingredients before trying something new.
As workshop places and consultation slots may be limited, visitors should confirm availability and booking requirements with MINIMUSE before making a special trip.
Why You Should Visit The Skin Lab at MINIMUSE
There are several reasons to add this beauty pop-up to your shopping plans.
First, free entry makes it easy to explore the event without committing to a purchase. Visitors can experience the AI skin analysis, enjoy the photobooth and participate in the pom-pom game, subject to the relevant conditions.
Second, the promotion brings several established skincare brands together in one place. This makes it convenient for shoppers who want to compare different ranges without travelling between multiple stores.
Third, the weekday and weekend discounts give shoppers an opportunity to plan their purchases around the available savings. Those shopping for eligible products may find the weekend offer particularly attractive, although SK-II is excluded from the weekend discount.
Finally, the sampling kit and consultations provide additional ways to discover products before deciding which ones deserve a place in a regular beauty routine.
The best approach is to visit with a plan. Decide whether your main priority is sampling, skincare advice, discounted shopping or simply enjoying the activities. This helps make the trip more worthwhile without encouraging unnecessary spending.
Smart Shopper Tips for Your Visit
The promotion runs for a limited period, from 26 October to 5 November 2026, and selected promotional items are available while stocks last.
For shoppers hoping to enjoy the weekend discount, remember that the promotion offers 20% off on weekends and 15% off on weekdays at participating brands, with SK-II excluded from the weekend offer.
If your main interest is learning about skincare, consider checking the availability of the workshops and one-to-one consultations before visiting. Confirm the $30 workshop fee, the complimentary consultation arrangements and the conditions for receiving deluxe samples.
It is also worth checking the sampling kit’s voucher terms before purchasing, particularly if you intend to use the vouchers towards future skincare or fragrance purchases.
Most importantly, avoid rushing into purchases. Free samples can be a useful way to discover new products, but individual results vary, and not every product will suit every skin type.
