Completed
1
Base formulation
We tested over 20+ base formulas to create a sunscreen that's gentle on sensitive skin, and feels breathable in Singapore’s humidity
2
Early user testing
We collaborated with Singaporeans with acne and eczema to refine the formula based on real-world feedback on texture, finish, and wear. After testing over 50 shades on Chinese and Malay skin tones, we selected 3 that best complement the natural complexion of most Singaporeans.
3
Finalise formula
Despite achieving the perfect lightweight and water resistant formula, we had to reformulate post-testing to improve UV protection. Previously, we experienced formulation delays with an ingredient supply crisis, which set us back by half a year.
4
Official testing
After reformulation, we will conduct a set of rigorous testing with our 3rd Party Lab, according to the highest international standards. We're testing for UVA, UVB, Sensitive skin, Non-comedogenicity, and Water resistance.
5
Packaging and design
We're collaborating with a local Singaporean artist (and friend) to design a product that is both gender neutral, and celebrates the Southeast Asian pride of our brand - using batik motifs to highlight the ingredient story.
6
Official launch
We're aiming for a Early 2027 launch, to ensure we really get the formula and tests done right.
In an industry that prioritises quantity over quality, we believe in fewer products —
done really well
Reset Mist
LAUNCHED MAY 2026
Completed
1
Base formulation
Frustrated by how most facial mists don't seem to do anything, we set out to develop a gentle clarifying mist tailored around Singaporeans' lifestyles.
2
Early user testing
We partnered with Singaporeans who have acne and eczema to test the mist in real-world conditions. Every feedback is taken seriously and fed into our R&D process.

Finalise formula
We’re have finalised the formula by working with our lab to stabilise the pH and ensure long-term shelf stability.
4
Official testing
We’ve performed a series of ppm, stability, heavy metal and microbial tests to ensure that the product is safe and effective.
5
Packaging & design
We've selected a fine mist spray bottle for smooth and gentle application. The design is compact, travel-friendly, and functional for everyday use.

Our products have finally reached Singapore, and are ready for purchase,

Cloud Repair Moisturiser
LAUNCHED MAY 2026
Completed
1
Base formulation
Most moisturisers clog pores and can worsen acne and eczema skin conditions, especially since they are too thick and suffocating for Singapore's weather. We decided to develop one that was both lightweight yet hydrating, whilst adding ingredients to boost skin repair from the weather.
2
Early user testing
We collaborated with participants across Singapore to validate our moisturiser's non-comedogenic properties, hydration efficacy, and skin barrier repair capabilities.
3
Finalise formula
After 6 rounds of R&D, our finalised formula is the perfect lightweight moisturiser for sensitive skin while delivering visible repair and hydration benefits with continued usage.
4
Packaging & design
We have selected a pump bottle that dispenses the right amount of product effortlessly, whilst also incorporating local elements into the design by working with Singaporean designers.
5
Official testing
Our formulation has been rigorously tested for stability, heavy metals, and microbial purity to meet the highest standards of safety and quality.

Frequently asked questions
We'll update progress here every end of month, together with periodic email updates, to all pre-order customers.
After more than a year of formulation, our sunscreen passed the highest standard for water resistance — but fell short on SPF levels in third-party testing. Rather than launch something we’re not fully confident in, we’ve chosen to reformulate and retest.
We’re now aiming for a mid-2026 launch, but won’t promise a fixed date until we clear SPF testing. Quality takes time, and we want to get this right.
In the meantime, we’ll continue to share updates — and if the wait no longer works for you, you’re welcome to request a full refund anytime before your order ships.
We completely understand if priorities shift or you're feeling tired of the wait. We're committed to quality and sustainability — and with that comes the possibility of delays.
That said, you're always welcome to change your mind before your order ships. We offer 100% refunds, no questions asked. You can choose to receive your refund to your original payment method or as store credit — whichever works best for you. Just email us at support@rinen.skin, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Absolutely! You can make changes to your pre-order — whether it’s updating your shipping address, switching to a different product, or something else — as long as your order hasn’t shipped out yet.
Just email us at support@rinen.skin with your order details and the change you'd like to make, and we’ll do our best to help.
We aim to update this page at least once a month, and more frequently whenever we have meaningful updates to share. Some information — particularly around production and timelines — may take a bit longer to finalize due to coordination with our stakeholders.
That said, the page is actively maintained, and we're committed to keeping you informed.
