Some brands make lipsticks. KIRO makes lip products that truly appreciate your lips. So while Lip Appreciation Day (March 16) is a great excuse to celebrate, KIRO believes your lips deserve that attention every single day.

Airy Matte Range

This Lip Appreciation Day, the clean beauty brand puts its lip collection in focus, celebrating lips with flattering nudes, expressive colour, skin-loving ingredients and textures that feel as good on the lips as they look.

Because appreciating lips means more than just adding colour. It means creating lip products that deliver full colour in a single swipe, feel lightweight and comfortable, and stay wearable through the day without dryness or discomfort.

At the heart of the collection is the Airy Matte Liquid Lipstick, created for those who love the look of matte lips without the dryness that often comes with it. Delivering intense pigment in one swipe, the formula settles into a breathable matte finish while apricot and avocado oils help keep lips moisturised.

For a softer, plush finish, the Velvet Soufflé Liquid Lipstick offers a velvety matte texture that gently blurs lip lines and leaves lips with a smooth wash of colour. The formula is enriched with CoQ10, an antioxidant that helps protect lips, and Aquaxyl, which supports long-lasting hydration, ensuring comfort through the day.

Balancing colour with nourishment, the Ceramide Tinted Lip Glaze Balm adds a hint of colour with a glass-like shinewhile ingredients like ceramides and squalane help support and repair the lip barrier. Meanwhile, the Fleur Lip Balm, infused with calendula oil, helps soothe and calm dry lips while delivering gentle hydration.

For women who love versatility, the Four Play Lip Stack brings together four wearable shades in one sleek, compact format, making it easy to switch colours through the day, whether it’s a work meeting, a quick coffee break or a night out.

Speaking about the philosophy behind the range, Vasundhara Patni, Founder of KIRO , said, “Women today are constantly multitasking, and their beauty products need to move with them. When we develop lip products, we focus on creating formulas that deliver beautiful colour instantly while also caring for the lips. Our formulations are thoughtfully researched and infused with ingredients like apricot and avocado oils, CoQ10, Aquaxyl, ceramides and calendula oil so that every swipe not only enhances colour but also supports lip health. Lip Appreciation Day is a lovely reminder, but for us, appreciating lips is something our products are designed to do every single day. Clean beauty, for us, means creating products that women can wear comfortably and confidently, knowing their lips are being cared for.”

From balanced nudes that flatter natural lip tones to rich browns, warm terracottas and elegant reds, the collection is designed to bring together colour, comfort and care in equal measure.

Because when it comes to appreciating your lips, KIRO believes they deserve that love every single day  not just on Lip Appreciation Day.

Retail success in 2026 is no longer driven by marquee brands alone; it is increasingly engineered by location intelligence. The post-pandemic consumer has recalibrated expectations — convenience, predictability and time efficiency now shape shopping decisions as much as assortment does. In congested urban markets, access has effectively become currency. Retail assets plugged into expressways, metro corridors and dense residential clusters are outperforming isolated developments, reflecting the rise of micro-catchment economics. Developers are studying traffic flows and neighbourhood income profiles before finalising layouts. The new reality is clear: footfall today is planned, and infrastructure is the first anchor tenant.
 

Why Location, Parking and Access Now Decide Retail Success
 

Location in organised retail has evolved from a prestige-driven pin code play to a data-backed catchment strategy. Developers are no longer chasing address value alone; they are mapping purchasing density within a defined radius. Retail embedded in high-rise residential clusters benefits from a ready, repeat customer base, while high streets and malls are being evaluated on visibility, frontage and movement flow rather than format alone. Transit-oriented developments near metro stations, arterial roads and mixed-use hubs are gaining traction as they convert commuter traffic into consumption.
 

As per Cushman and Wakefield’s Q4 2025 report, Gurugram led the overall retail leasing during Q4-25 with a 63% share, followed by Delhi (22%) and Noida (15%). Malls secured 56% of quarterly leasing volume, while mainstreets accounted for the balance 44% share.
 

Even heritage-heavy markets such as Chandni Chowk are being reinterpreted through structured access and organised retail overlays. Chandni Chowk’s central position in Old Delhi makes it a focal point for both historical exploration and retail activity. Delhi’s extensive metro network directly links to the Chandni Chowk station, which is accessible from any part of the city.
 

Jatin Goel, Executive Director, Omaxe Group, says, “In a market like Chandni Chowk, retail has always been driven by inherited footfall. The demand here is embedded in the ecosystem, and at Omaxe Chowk, we’ve structured that density. Beyond the heritage advantage, we’ve invested in organised access and substantial parking infrastructure, including a multi-level facility that can accommodate over 2,100 vehicles. In a location historically challenged by congestion, that scale of parking changes the experience for both shoppers and traders. When cultural legacy is supported by planned mobility and disciplined vertical retail, location evolves into a sustainable competitive advantage rather than just a celebrated pin code.”
 

Structured, multi-level parking directly influences dwell time, particularly on weekends when family outings dominate footfall. For premium and luxury brands, ease of access is non-negotiable; aspiration collapses if convenience is compromised. Developers are increasingly acknowledging that inadequate parking leads to abandoned carts and truncated experiences.
 

Moreover, access is increasingly functioning as retail’s most powerful marketing lever. Assets located along high-speed corridors such as the Noida–Greater Noida Expressway and the Dwarka Expressway are benefiting from sustained residential absorption and office densification along these belts. Metro expansions are further redrawing retail corridors, creating predictable movement patterns that developers can build around. Signal-free stretches and strong arterial connectivity reduce commute fatigue, while highway-facing visibility acts as passive branding without incremental spend. When office, residential and retail ecosystems converge within a well-connected grid, customer acquisition becomes organic. In this framework, infrastructure does not just enable retail — it materially lowers the cost of attracting and retaining footfall.
 

Yukti Nagpal, Director, Gulshan Group, says, “Retail along potential corridors like the Noida–Greater Noida Expressway is evolving in direct response to the residential and commercial expansion. As new sectors densify and office occupancy strengthens, accessibility and parking become central to performance. Today, customers don’t separate retail from logistics, especially in a market that is largely car-driven. At Gulshan One29, we focused on seamless entry-exit movement and structured parking because weekend footfall here is family-led and time-sensitive. When retail is positioned on a high-growth corridor, supported by organised mobility, dwell time improves naturally. In this micro-market, convenience is what converts passing traffic into predictable consumption.”
 

Ishwin Singh Hora, Director, Reach Group says, “Retail success today is increasingly determined by three critical factors — location, accessibility and organised parking. While location continues to anchor a retail destination, seamless connectivity, adequate parking and smooth pedestrian movement have become equally important in sustaining footfall. As urban mobility patterns evolve and high-street retail gains traction in markets like Gurugram, developments that prioritise easy access and visitor convenience are seeing stronger retailer demand and more consistent consumer traffic.”
 

Umang Jindal, CEO, Homeland Group says, “Today, retail success is no longer defined by the size of the mall alone, but by how easily people can access it. Location, seamless connectivity, and adequate parking have become critical factors influencing where consumers choose to shop and spend time. In high-density urban centres, shoppers prefer destinations that reduce friction—whether that means being well connected to key road networks, having direct metro access, or offering convenient parking. Retail spaces that prioritise accessibility and ease of movement are naturally seeing stronger footfall and longer dwell time, which ultimately benefits both retailers and consumers.”
 

Chirag Desai – Centre Head – Felix Plaza says, “In Gurugram, accessibility defines velocity. Retail that sits five minutes off a major corridor performs very differently from retail embedded within it. At Felix Plaza, our strength lies in seamless approach roads and adjacency to high-density residential sectors. Customers today calculate time subconsciously. If they can exit the expressway, park smoothly, and access curated brands without navigating internal chaos, repeat visits follow naturally. Accessibility isn’t an operational detail; it is the foundation of sustainable leasing performance.”
 

Therefore, the new retail formula is increasingly structural rather than symbolic. Success today rests on four interlinked pillars: location intelligence, structured parking, seamless access and a curated tenant mix. Developers are recognising that even the strongest brand roster cannot compensate for poor approach roads or inadequate parking. Ultimately, retail performance is no longer just about who you lease to; it is about how intelligently the asset is positioned within its movement ecosystem.

With over 100 years of expertise, BROXO has built a strong reputation for delivering premium vacuum salt used in professional water treatment systems across Europe.
 

BROXO Introduces Brand Update Across Water Treatment Markets
 

BROXO salt is produced from high-purity vacuum salt extracted from underground salt caverns in the Netherlands and Denmark.

In industrial environments, effective water softening reduces energy consumption, minimizes maintenance requirements, and safeguards operational efficiency.
 

The brand refresh focuses on strengthening BROXO’s core identity, reinforcing the recognizable brand assets, colors, and visual language that customers have trusted for decades. The updated look reflects both BROXO’s heritage and its forward-looking approach to the global market.

This refresh is about returning to our core strengths: quality, reliability, and consistency while modernizing how we present ourselves to the market,” says Nico Basson, Segment Marketing Manager Water & Retail Products. “We are building on a strong foundation and preparing the brand for continued growth.”
 

Today, BROXO continues to serve a wide range of customers, including restaurants, hotels, commercial facilities, and industrial operators that rely on high-performance water softening systems.

ECOVACS Robotics, a global leader in home service robotics, is bringing its global “ECOVACS, Created for Ease” brand idea to the APAC region with a local twist: “Always in Your Corner“. With this, ECOVACS is underscoring its commitment to understanding and meeting the unique needs of users in the APAC region.

“Created for Ease”: ECOVACS Brand Campaign Honors Caregivers Across the APAC Region

“ECOVACS, Created for Ease” reflects the brand’s ongoing commitment to leverage service robotics to create a world of ease for users by relieving them of household tasks. For users in the APAC region, ECOVACS knows that “ease” is not simply about doing less. It means easing the mind and letting go of mental burdens. To bring ease to APAC users, technology must not demand attention. It should be “Always in Your Corner” – quietly helping users to keep their daily life on track.

“Always in Your Corner” for APAC’s Unsung Heroes

“Always in Your Corner” represents how ECOVACS’ diversified full-scenario home service robotics ecosystem is designed to help ease the burdens faced by users in the APAC region and empower them to enjoy a more effortless modern lifestyle. For example, many in the APAC region are part of the so-called “sandwich generation”. They are the quiet backbones of their households, juggling career demands while also taking care of children and aging parents. Whether it’s helping a child with their homework or taking dad to his doctor’s appointment, these everyday heroes are always in someone else’s corner. ECOVACS believes they also deserve to have someone in their corner, to help ease their burdens.

For the past 20 years, ECOVACS has been driven by a fearless spirit of innovation to solve complex challenges and continuously advance the user experience. The pioneering intelligent technologies in the ECOVACS DEEBOT robotic vacuums and WINBOT robotic window cleaners, such as the OMNI Station, OZMO ROLLER technology, and PowerBoost technology have set new industry benchmarks and become the hidden heroes for every home, designed to help users clean every corner of their home with minimal effort.
 

Enabling Village Partnership in Singapore

Now ECOVACS is bringing this same innovation spirit to help ease the burdens faced by caregivers in the APAC region. As part of its brand campaign, ECOVACS is planning to cooperate with select like-minded local partners across the region, such as Enabling Village in Singapore. Enabling Village is an integrated community space that aims to empower caregivers for people with disabilities by providing them with resources to manage their responsibilities and enhance their quality of life. ECOVACS will provide Enabling Village caregivers with DEEBOT robotic vacuum cleaners to help ease their burdens and enable them to spend more time on themselves.

“Caring for a child with special needs requires lots of time and patience. And it can be challenging to find moments when I can focus on myself,” says Yvette Wang. “I’m grateful to ECOVACS and their efforts to assist caregivers. With their DEEBOT robotic vacuum I now have one less thing to manage, as I can leave DEEBOT to take care of our floors, and itself.“

To commemorate their partnership, ECOVACS and Enabling Village have invited Yvette’s son, artist @Eli_lailai, to specially design some exclusive merchandise. This collaboration was made possible through I’mable Collective, an initiative by SG Enable that supports and empowers persons with disabilities by providing training and employment opportunities within the creative sector.
