ABOUT

JDO were briefed to upgrade LUX hair care packs and bring a new proposition to life based on brand values of admiration, sophistication and elegance. The challenge was to do this both in an inspiring and contemporary way that was relevant for the core user group in the 30s and 40s while bringing in more younger and modern women. JDO were also tasked with shifting brand perceptions from competent and capable to more efficacious and pleasurable to use as well as upgrading the LUX brand to a more premium position.

By taking the strong equity of the LUX brand identity, JDO created a new and highly animated device by way of the ribbons marque. The gold ribbons reflect pure glamour, ooze confidence and luxury and are both bold and impactful. The two sub ranges of Shine and Damage Repair are easily differentiated through the base pack colour with pink and bronze highlights. On shelf the LUX range combats the clutter with an elegant and refined presence.

Part of LUX’s success has been to continually breathe life into the brand and keep it relevant for its demanding consumers. The Japanese market is packed with innovative global and niche brands and it’s essential to not only stand out on shelf, but also to have a clear and compelling positioning and offer.
