The Problem

  • Most affordable skincare often lacks the personality and quality Gen Z crave.

  • For Gen Z, skincare needs to be quick, easy, and multi-functional.

  • To compete, Winky needs strong branding, clear messaging, and strategic retail placement.

The Competition

During my initial research, I found my top two competitors: Byoma and Bubble. Both are sold at major retailers including Ulta, Target and Walmart as well as drugstores. After, I created mood boards to help me develop a strategy for my brand identity.
