UT refers to Uniqlo t-shirts, the brand’s in-house series of collaboration tees. There are countless UT collections spanning fandom merch and artist collaborations to collegiate apparel from actual universities. And at Uniqlo’s Orchard Central branch, UTME! allows you to print a t-shirt design that’s one of a kind.


If you just want to showcase a word or catchphrase, they also have a typography option.

Your design can be printed on any plain short- or long-sleeve shirt found throughout the store, so all you need to do is pick a shirt style, colour, and size. Emblazon it with an image file you’ve prepared, whether that be a photo or your own digital design. Using the store’s digital design platform, you can further customise it with an in-app paint function.

Adults: $29.90 for short-sleeve, $39.90 for long sleeve

Image adapted from: Sulwhasoo, Sulwhasoo

Sulwhasoo is a hot favourite when it comes to Korean skincare brands. It’s backed by celebs like Rosé from Blackpink and Song Hye Kyo of Descendants Of The Sun fame. What many local fans of the brand might not know is that besides just retailing skincare products, they also offer facial services.

These are very popular back in Korea and even in Hong Kong, with the Sulwhasoo Spa Treatment in Gangnam and Sulwhasoo Beauty Lounge Facial Treatment garnering beaming reviews. The good news is, you won’t have to travel overseas to experience these pampering treatments yourself.


Image adapted from: @skye.onskin

Over at the Capitol outlet, there is an exclusive Prestige Timeless Facial Treatment available at $480 for 90 minutes. The anti-ageing facial uses their most top tier products, such as the luxury Timetreasure Honorstige collection.

Coupled with the incorporation of actual Korean ginseng, the treatment is said to be professionally formulated to reduce effects of ageing on the skin, and fortify the skin barrier to minimise further ageing and environmentally-caused damage. For something more budget-friendly, they also have 80-minute facials from $260 for women and $140 for men.

Price: $480 for 90-min outlet-exclusive Prestige Timeless Facial
