It’s one of the many roles of men with women in tow: wait outside Watsons because shopping for cosmetics isn’t just becoming of a real man’s tough side.
Thump your chest, fellas; Watsons has a rebuttal to arouse your vanity: HIM-tayan Club, the guy-only pampering department stocked with things to make one feel man enough as when he fires up a stogie.
Truth is, HIM-tayan or not, Watsons has always had a gamut of health, grooming and fragrance products for men.
The HIM-tayan Club also offers special deals and discounts on health, styling and grooming essentials for men for up to 50 percent.
This, not to mention a complimentary coffee, Wi-Fi–a massage chair!–for them.
HIM-tayan Club is a mini gentleman’s lounge replete with a massage chair and sundries for pampering.
The club was unveiled at the Watsons biggest store in The Block at SM North Edsa.
The event, which coincided with Father’s Day, was hosted by the dapper Frontline Pilipinas sports news anchor and social media influencer Mikee Reyes.
Since it was Father’s Day, there were a lot of special promos and deals on the day.
Male shoppers scored P75 off for a minimum spend of P499 on Unilever products.
Old Spice gave away one body spray for a minimum purchase of P500 on the brand’s products.
They also got P250 off for a minimum spend of P1,000 on STR8 products and received free Nivea gifts for a minimum spend of P300.
For the day only, there were also promo offers on Old Spice WC Invisible Solid Bearglove (at 50 percent off), Nivea Men Xtra Bright Foam (30 percent off), Gillette Mach3 Turbo 3DMotion Razor (35 percent off), Rexona Men Charcoal Detox (B1T1), and STR8 eau de Toilette Red Code (50 percent off).
