You’ve seen the viral Dumpling Bags all over your feed. In 2026, Beyond The Vines is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a special "Confetti" collection and Liberty Fabric florals!

Thinking of upgrading to the latest iPhone or MacBook? While Apple prices are premium globally, the 9% GST refund in Singapore is a game-changer.
By purchasing at one of the three official Apple Stores, tourists can claim back a significant chunk of change—on a high-spec 2026 MacBook Pro, that’s a saving of over S$200!

4. Love, Bonito
For the modest fashionistas, Love, Bonito is a dream. Their "Asian Fit" tailoring means you won't have to deal with long hemlines or oversized shoulders.

6. Luxury Labels (Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Dior)
Singapore remains a luxury powerhouse. The big news for 2026 is the Mastercard x Global Blue promo, where tourists can earn an extra 30% on their GST refund amount (capped at S$500 per transaction).
When you stack that on top of the standard 9% refund, the price difference between an LV Speedy or a Dior Book Tote and other Asian countries is massive.
Outlets: Marina Bay Sands, ION Orchard, Ngee Ann City
7. Sephora
Beauty junkies, rejoice! Singapore’s Sephora is the only place in the region where you can find certain K-Beauty collaborations (like the new Olive Young section) alongside Fenty and Rare Beauty.
Pro-tip: Sign up for the Sephora Beauty Pass to snag the 2026 Birthday Rewards, which often include exclusive deluxe miniatures.

If you love the "quiet luxury" aesthetic, this local brand is your go-to. Known for minimalist, architectural pieces, In Good Company's 2026 collection features lightweight, modular wardrobe essentials.

It might look like a 19th-century Parisian tea salon, but TWG Tea is homegrown SG excellence.
For the best prices, skip the city and head to iShopChangi online before you fly. You can get the 2026 "Singapore Breakfast" Haute Couture tins for about S$44, which is significantly less than the markups at their London or Dubai boutiques.

For the ultimate sneaker haul, head to IMM in Jurong East and check out the Adidas and Nike outlet stores.

13. Tiger Balm
This legendary "miracle balm" is a Singaporean icon. While Tiger Balm is sold worldwide, buying the full range (including the 2026 Sensorial Therapy Lotions) at local pharmacies like Guardian or Watsons is vastly cheaper.
A standard jar can cost as little as S$3.50, compared to double or triple that in the US or Europe!
14. OSIM
The king of wellness! As a homegrown Singaporean brand, OSIM offers its best prices right here.
In 2026, keep an eye out for the "uDream Pro" and "uDiva" chairs. When you buy in SG, you avoid massive international freight charges and can often access local "Trade-in" specials or the 2026 Miffy Feel Good Series exclusives.
Plus, a massage chair is a high-ticket item, meaning your 9% GST refund will be a massive amount of cash back!

15. Peripera
Though it's a Korean brand, Singapore’s Watsons and Guardian often run "Buy 2 Get 1 Free" sales in 2026, making Peripera's famous Ink Velvet tints cheaper than in many other Southeast Asian countries.
It’s the best place to stock up on K-beauty gems!
Where to buy: Watsons outlets | Guardian outlets
With the current GST refund bonuses and exclusive 2026 collections, there's never been a better time to plan your Singapore shopping spree.
Whether you're hunting for high-tech gadgets, a relaxing OSIM chair, or the perfect local handbag, the Lion City has you covered.
