Impact
Successfully launching and growing in a country where natural ingredients trump scientific formulation
Doubling down on efficacy, knowing that product use would build preference
We focused on and deepened our connection with a specific audience - pre-teens and teens experiencing transformations in their lives and their skin.
​
Clean & Clear was the brand that could grow with them (high-energy communication featuring rap stars and casting calls for models), go with them (travel packs, face-wipes) and keep their skin glowing (proven oil-clearing, pimple-busting credentials).
​
Not only did this create familiarity, it also brought older women (and even men) seeking effective cleansing into our fold.
-
A brand that’s a byword for teen skin and teen life
-
Market share that’s second only to the longtime category leader, Himalaya
-
Benchmark growth - India has firmly positioned itself as the largest market for C&C outside the USA
