Background on the brand

This innovative brand combines the founder's background in engineering with her passion for makeup to offer a unique, sustainable solution for cosmetics. The core offering is a DIY system where users can mix primary colors to get their exact desired shades, minimizing waste. Additional products enhance the experience, with an overall focus on promoting guilt-free, personalized beauty, and sustainability.

What were the brand’s challenges before the partnership?

• Aesthetically, the designs needed to be more streamlined and reflective of the brand's identity, necessitating a comprehensive design overhaul.

• Given the innovative nature of the product, a significant amount of customer education was imperative, as potential users were not familiar with the product's unique characteristics and usage.

• From a digital marketing perspective, the brand's strategy with Klaviyo, an email marketing platform, was insufficiently defined and required a more robust, data-driven approach to leverage its full potential.

• As the founder was preoccupied with numerous tasks, her availability was limited, imposing a constraint on her engagement with the project.

• The business scenario necessitated immediate return on investment (ROI), adding pressure to deliver quick results without compromising the quality of the output.

• The founder, functioning as a solopreneur, was largely dependent on external assistance for various facets of the business, signaling a need for a collaborative solution that could help alleviate this burden.
