Skinsei – Bring Home Retail Kit
Unilever
Claim: "In-depth understanding"
Overview
To be sold in Target stores, they wanted a tool that could be bought independently of any specific brand, brought home and used to diagnose their skin requirements. They wanted something similar to the DNA kits , specific to skin.
A fully branded skin diagnostic box with three science-backed skin tools i.e. a skin type tester, a skin hydration tester along with a skin PH level tester were included in this box to give the consumer a 360° assessment of their skin was developed. Easy to use with quick results, the tools gave the consumer an in-depth understanding of their skin and the type of products that they need.
The Challenge
For the Bring Home Retail Kit, Skinsei needed to make the "In-depth understanding" promise something shoppers in the skin care category could see for themselves, not just read on a label. In the few seconds a shopper spends at shelf or in a consultation, copy and ingredient lists rarely land, especially when rival products advertise hydration, repair, ph balance claims.
The brief for the Bring Home Retail Kit was to turn that abstract message into a tangible, repeatable proof point that retail staff, pharmacists or beauty advisors could run on demand, without lab equipment or specialist training, while staying on brand for Skinsei.
The Approach
Skinsei USA was looking to educate consumers about their skin health in the comfort of their homes. They needed science-based educational tools that engaged the consumer and helped them to understand their own individual skin needs. A self-analysis tool designed for diagnosing...
USP Demo Solutions built the Bring Home Retail Kit for Skinsei around the Face Hydration Test method, reducing the In-depth understanding story to a single visible reaction the consumer can trigger themselves. That gives the conversation a clear before/after moment in the skin care aisle instead of a one-way pitch.
From the same physical interaction with the Bring Home Retail Kit, the demo substantiates claim areas such as hydration, repair, ph balance, so a single asset can carry several conversations across the Skinsei range.
The Result
The result for Skinsei is a at home engagement, delivered through the Bring Home Retail Kit as something the consumer experiences first-hand rather than has to take on trust.
By turning Skinsei's "In-depth understanding" message into a hands-on Face Hydration Test moment, the Bring Home Retail Kit becomes a credible, science-backed conversation starter the shopper can repeat for a friend.
In the field, Skinsei runs the Bring Home Retail Kit primarily for retail activation, delivered in diagnostic tool, kit so the same Face Hydration Test proof point travels from a pharmacist's counter to a beauty advisor's tablet without losing its logic.
