CASE STUDY

an inc. 5000 company rebrand

As Creative Director at V Beauty Pure, I led a comprehensive rebrand in 2022, shaping our identity & marketing standards.

From web design..

To package design & product photography..

To billboards & everywhere in between.

The problem

While user-generated content drove V Beauty Pure’s brand awareness, key identity assets like the website & package design remained underdeveloped.

Methodology

Personality, clarity, & tangibility are three core design principles that resonate with our demographic (BIPOC Women, Ages 18-30).


Applying these principles has led to high-impact, thumb-stopping ads that have doubled the click-through rate (CTR) from brand ambassador social media flyers.

Weaving personality & humor into packaging has created a strong brand voice & richer talking points for our 300+ ambassadors.

Using the Adobe Suite, Blender 3D, Artificial Intelligence, DaVinci Resolve, & technical camera skills, our brand identity transcended into double-look territory.
