Out with the old and in with the new — Tampines Mall has just completed its S$24 million Asset Enhancement Initiative (AEI). That’s essentially a revamp, and you can look forward to 21 new brands, refreshed retail spaces and upgraded facilities during your next visit. I believe more is more when it comes to a shopping mall, so these new shops will definitely give shoppers greater choice and a more rounded experience.

Of the 21 brands introduced, 15 are new to the East. Additionally, with 14 beauty retail stores, Tampines Mall is now home to the biggest beauty cluster in the East. This includes well-known, premium brands and more accessible, everyday beauty names. The 8 new beauty brands are: CHANEL, DIOR, ELEMIS, Judydoll, Rituals, Sephora, SHISEIDO, and YSL Beauty. Besides the newbies on the block, the brands with refreshed looks are Bath & Body Works, Kiehl’s, L’Occitane, Laneige and The Body Shop.

Beyond shopping until you drop, standalone boutiques on Level 1 offer distinctive personalised services. For example, SHISEIDO offers a personalised skin analysis for the best skincare and makeup recommendations.
A trip to Tampines Mall isn’t complete without having a meal; there are also 8 new F&B concepts. These dining spaces include Alchemist, Casa Vostra, Ging Sun Ho King of Bun, IM QALB by Pun Im, LONGJING, RUXU, YEAH Gelato and Charlie’s Tea. Don’t miss out on IM QALB’s Tampines Mall-exclusive menu. Plus, Charlie’s Tea’s Tampines Mall outlet is their first-ever in Singapore.

Shop for a new wardrobe at 5 new fashion, sports and watch stores — Asics, Boarding Gate, Braun Buffel, Meileur Moment and CC Primos. Brands that have had a store makeover include Decathlon, Running Lab, Goldheart, SK Gold and Vincent Watch. Decathlon’s 18,000-square-foot store has more than 6,000 sporting essentials across over 60 different sports. You can try out various gear at dedicated test zones before committing to a purchase. Post-purchase services such as basic bicycle maintenance, racket restringing and re-gripping are also available.
I know where I’m heading this weekend, and I hope you do too!
