SINGAPORE, March 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- North London Collegiate School (Singapore) marked International Women's Day 2026 with a series of meaningful events under the banner 'HerStory', bringing together students, parents, media, community leaders, and Singapore-based advocates designed to highlight women's voices, stories, and leadership in a shared commitment to empowerment, equality, and purposeful giving.
The week-long programme celebrated women and inspired young people, creating a space where the next generation sits alongside those already driving change, and where shared purpose translates into collective action.
Rooted in a 175-Year Legacy of Female Empowerment
The values driving HerStory Week are inseparable from the founding story of NLCS itself. Frances Mary Buss established North London Collegiate School in 1850, pioneering girls' academic education at a time when rigorous learning for women was far from guaranteed. She believed that every girl deserves equal opportunity to access education that builds confidence, knowledge, and the power to shape her own future and she gave her life's work to making that belief a reality, shaping generations of leaders, innovators, and change-makers in the process.
The HerStory Dinner
The centrepiece of the week was the HerStory Dinner, a thought-leadership event built around the theme: "What Will You Give to Gain through Knowledge, Time, and Advocacy." It was an evening designed not just to commemorate, but to ask everyone in the room how they might contribute meaningfully through knowledge-sharing, service, and advocacy.
Presentations across the evening explored what it truly means to give, shining light on the initiatives, causes, and communities that NLCS (Singapore) has rallied around.
Student Leadership and Advocacy in Action
HerStory Week placed student voices and student action at its heart. Across the school, young people stepped forward to reflect on what equality means to them through their societies, their service, and their leadership, showing that the next generation is not waiting to inherit a more equal world, they are already building it.
Student ambassadors from across year groups spoke to the importance of equity, inclusion, wellbeing, and belonging, sharing their commitment to upstanding values, advocacy, and creating a community where every individual feels valued and supported.
MercuriX, the school's national champion STEM Racing team preparing for the World Finals, used the week to champion inclusive leadership in STEM, pledging to mentor younger female students and making the case that the most diverse teams build the best solutions.
The Student Athlete Coaching Programme connects Junior and Senior School students through sport, with female senior students modelling leadership and inspiring younger peers to see themselves as capable leaders.
The Amnesty International Society continued its steady work writing letters and petitions in support of human rights cases worldwide, rounded in the belief that no act of advocacy is too small to matter.
The GreenWave Society channeled its energy into sustainability on and off campus, fundraising grassroots charities and proving that student-led action reaches far beyond the classroom.
The school's Pacha Club, the first chapter of the global Pachamama Project to launch in Asia, has been creating reusable period pads for refugees and people experiencing period poverty, keeping girls in school and restoring dignity where it matters most.
Community Partners: Giving Where It Matters Most
HerStory Week also made room for the voices beyond the school walls, including women and organisations from across Singapore's women's empowerment, migrant worker welfare, and gender advocacy communities who joined the gathering not as guests, but as proof that giving through knowledge, time, and advocacy is already remaking the world.

The Korean skincare brand debuts a global campaign, built around the PDRN Collagen Glow Facial Serum Spray
LOS ANGELES, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Anua, the Korean skincare brand that has taken U.S. beauty retail by storm, today announces Kendall Jenner as its first global brand ambassador. Alongside the announcement, Anua is launching a worldwide campaign centered on its PDRN Collagen Glow Facial Serum Spray featuring Jenner.
The timing reflects how far Anua has come in the American market. In 2024, the brand was named TikTok Shop's #1 Beauty Brand, achieving the top single-brand revenue on TikTok Shop U.S., and earned Amazon Top Brand recognition for sales performance across the platform in both 2024 and 2025. During Amazon Prime Day U.S. in July 2024, Anua ranked #1 in its category, with sales increasing 537% year over year. By 2025, the brand had surpassed $500 million in global revenue, with the U.S. as its largest market, and had sold more than 40 million units worldwide across 160 countries. Today, Anua is sold in more than 20,000 retail doors across the U.S., underscoring its rapid expansion from digital discovery to nationwide retail presence.
Jenner has been open about her straightforward, consistent skincare routines. That mindset aligns closely with how Anua approaches skincare: formulations that are gentle on the skin barrier, ingredient-focused, and built for real results. The campaign brings that connection to life through the PDRN Spray that is part of her daily routine.
"I first discovered the double cleanser, and it has changed my skin. I also love their Azelaic green serum and PDRN which gives me a dewy glow. I am big fan of the products," said Kendall Jenner.
PDRN Collagen Glow Facial Serum Spray, a capsule mist formulated with 2,000ppm of PDRN (Salmon DNA) and Hyaluronic Acid. The spray delivers immediate hydration and a dewy, glass-skin finish without residue or heaviness. An ultra-fine oil-capsule mist, it absorbs quickly, works over or under makeup, and has been clinically shown to improve skin hydration by 30.754% while temporarily reducing skin surface temperature. Suitable for all skin types and non-comedogenic, it was designed for everyday use in any setting.
Launching June 1, 2026 across global digital and social platforms, the campaign gives audiences a look at how Jenner uses the spray in her daily routine, from morning prep through travel and on-set touch-ups. Content will run across Anua's channels and Jenner's platforms as part of a multi-year partnership that includes global campaigns and product launches.
"We are thrilled to partner with Kendall Jenner, a true global icon. Her minimalist and intuitive lifestyle seamlessly aligns with Anua's 'trend meets trust' philosophy, and we look forward to sharing this shared vision with a wider global audience," said Yi Seonhyeong, CEO of The Founders, Inc.
To celebrate the launch, Anua will bring "Dew On The Go" to life with an immersive pop-up experience in New York City's Soho neighborhood. Located at 21 Greene Street offering public access from June 6–7. Inspired by the ease and romance of a European summer escape, the pop-up will invite guests to discover the products and brand Kendall uses to achieve her dewy skin. Guests will experience Anua through a series of sensorial, photo-worthy touchpoints, including a mist reception, product discovery moments, a photo booth, a "Dew Fountain," a Dew Café, and a gift shop experience.
About Anua:
Founded in 2019 by The Founders (Co-CEOs Seonhyeong Lee and Changju Lee), Anua is a Korean skincare brand built around targeted solutions for a wide range of skin concerns. Each product draws on carefully selected natural and dermatological ingredients, designed to deliver visible results across all skin types. The brand's formulations are anchored in ingredients such as heartleaf, peach, PDRN, and rice ceramide, developed with a focus on barrier health, efficacy, and accessibility.
Since entering the U.S. in 2022, Anua has grown more than 200% annually and surpassed $500 million in global retail sales in 2025. The brand is sold at Ulta Beauty nationwide, on Amazon, and at anua.com, with ongoing expansion into Europe, the Middle East, and Australia.
