Revolutionize from a commodity to a women’s health lifestyle brand
The brand was perceived as clinical and lacked personality. So, in 2016, the objective was to modernize the brand and infuse emotional connection. We reinvented the floral imagery that is typical in the FemCare aisle and elevated brand assets by leaning into the ownable circular equity.
In 2019, we took an additional step forward to strengthen the core o.b. equities, reframe messaging and gain relevance with Gen-Z consumers. We created a mandala design system that conveys “a sense of natural through graphics”. Tapping into the Gen-Z consumer trends, a key focus being on ingredient transparency, we moved to all white cartons across the portfolio emphasize the free-of messaging and launched an organic cotton SKU.
