The Importance of Beauty Branding

Whilst people buy a product based on the product delivering the promise it makes, initially they are attracted to the product because of the way the product looks. Packaging, POS material, the way the product is merchandised in-store, your advertising, website and social media are incredibly important facets to creating the strength of your brand. It’s fair to say that most beauty products and brands in today’s marketplace are discovered through social media channels, influencers, and word of mouth. Branding not only defines the look and feel of your brand but should provide you with distinctive USP versus your competitors, critical to generating engagement and to driving sales.

Eye catching graphics, quirky tag lines and beautiful colour palettes are hitting the shelves of Space NK, Boots, Selfridges, Ulta Beauty, Sephora daily. Defining your distinctive style is elementary to building a strong presence in the beauty world and to making or breaking your brand. Branding is the first point of contact a consumer has with your brand, before they have even tried your formulations. If your branding doesn’t resonate with them, they may never pick up your brand let alone try it. It extends beyond your logo, colours, font type, to your content, videos, the words you use and the way in which you use them.

Just consider for a moment how many different skincare brands there are in the marketplace and what differentiates them? Yes, ingredients, formulations, pricing are one way of differentiating your brand, but branding is what really sets you apart – and provides your potential customers with a flavour of what is to come. There is an entire psychology written around the importance of colours used, and the perceptions these create. Equally typography and tone of voice are important considerations when determining your branding, helping to position your brand as sustainable, cosmeceutical, luxury or value.
