Why CARiNG Pharmacy is making women’s health an everyday priority

CARiNG Pharmacy is doubling down on women’s wellness with a new long-term campaign aimed at shifting behaviour from reactive care to proactive health management.

Launched together with Georgetown Pharmacy and Wellings Pharmacy under BIG CARING Group, the “Empowering women, inspiring wellness” campaign takes a holistic approach to women’s health, connecting inner wellness, outer wellbeing and mental health into a more integrated, everyday practice.

At its core, the initiative is designed to address a persistent gap: while awareness around women’s health has grown, action often comes too late. CARiNG Pharmacy is positioning itself as a more accessible, community-driven healthcare partner that supports women across different life stages, encouraging them to prioritise their wellbeing before issues arise.

According to the pharmacy brand, “Empowering women, inspiring wellness” was intended encourage women to take a more proactive and preventive approach to their health, and feel confident doing so in a way that is realistic and sustainable.

Notably, the campaign was intentionally not tied to a specific calendar moment such as International Women’s Day, reflecting a broader strategic shift away from seasonal messaging.

“Women’s health shouldn’t be a ‘once-a-year’ conversation, but something that is supported and encouraged all year round,” said Wong Siew Lai, chief marketing officer of BIG CARING Group, in conversation with A+M. “We saw an opportunity to shift behaviour over time towards a more proactive approach.”

The campaign spans key wellness categories including vitamins and supplements, skincare, NMN and probiotics, while also acknowledging the interplay between physical, emotional and mental health. Participating brands include Herbs of Gold, VitaHealth, Kinohimitsu, BiO-LiFE, La Roche-Posay, CeraVe and Cetaphil, among others.

To bring the initiative to life, CARiNG Pharmacy kicked things off with its “Reset your me-time” event, which was open to the public, and designed as an experiential entry point into the campaign.

“The objective was to bring the campaign to life in a more tangible way. Instead of only talking about women’s wellness, we wanted participants to experience it through expert sharing, discussions and hands-on activities,” Wong explained, adding that the event also aimed to spark broader conversations and generate organic social buzz.

From here, the campaign rolls out across a 360 ecosystem, spanning social media, in-store engagement and on-ground activations. Educational and relatable content will be pushed across CARiNG’s platforms, while in-store initiatives allow customers to engage directly with pharmacists and curated wellness solutions.

The brand is also working with media partners, key opinion leaders (KOLs) and participating health and beauty brands to extend reach and deepen relevance across categories.

More importantly, CARiNG is treating this not as a short-term push, but as an ongoing platform.

“We built this as a long-term initiative because supporting women in prioritising their health proactively in everyday life takes time,” Wong said. “We will continue to roll out new content, activations and partnerships throughout the year to keep the conversation relevant and ongoing.”

Earlier this year, CARiNG Pharmacy took a refreshingly honest approach to festive storytelling this Hari Raya with its latest film, “Misi Raya Paling Perfect” ('The most perfect Raya mission'), shifting the focus from picture-perfect celebrations to the messy, meaningful reality behind them.

Inspired by the familiar chaos of Raya preparations, the film leaned into humour and fast-paced storytelling to mirror the “mission mode” many families slip into ahead of the festivities, from last-minute shopping to coordinating meals and outfits.

Rather than following the usual dramatic tone of Raya ads, it adopted a lighter, more cinematic style, capturing the imperfections that come with trying to create the “perfect” celebration, a CARiNG brand spokesperson shared with A+M.
