Challenge

Blink Brow Bar was entering a period of brand evolution, moving from a service-led retail concept toward a more contemporary global beauty brand.

A refreshed luxury positioning had been defined, but required translation into a cohesive visual identity that could function consistently across boutiques, product, digital platforms and marketing communications. The challenge was to establish a unified creative system capable of supporting rapid expansion while elevating perception within an increasingly competitive beauty landscape.

Creative Approach

Defining the Visual Language

Working closely with brand and marketing teams, I helped translate the updated brand direction into a refined visual world across photography, design and motion.

Imagery shifted toward a more editorial beauty aesthetic, introducing confident casting, glow-led lighting and tighter compositions designed to balance premium positioning with accessibility. Colour, typography and styling were aligned to create a modern, recognisable brand signature across all touchpoints.

Building a Scalable Brand System

Beyond campaign execution, the focus was on creating a flexible framework that could scale globally.

Modular creative principles were established across retail POS, packaging, CRM, e-commerce and print communications, enabling consistent rollout across boutiques, concessions and digital environments while maintaining creative clarity.

Elevating Beauty Storytelling

Content evolved from functional service communication toward brand-led storytelling.

Photography and film introduced product texture, treatment experience and real customer presence, helping position Blink Brow Bar as both a beauty authority and lifestyle brand. Motion and digital-first assets were developed to support social, retail and always-on marketing activity.

A consistent creative framework enabled faster campaign rollout, improved cross-channel cohesion and established a scalable foundation for future product and retail expansion.
