SK-II and Andy Warhol partnered to launch a limited edition of the cult SK-II Facial Treatment Essence with inclusive and empowering packaging. Design agency LOVE helped the collaboration come to fruition by marrying the brand's values with the artist's signature aesthetic into a contemporary and compelling design.
Warhol believes that "if everyone isn't beautiful, then no one is." His philosophy mirrors SK-II's empowerment ethos, which made for an inclusive collaboration. The Andy Warhol X SK-II Facial Treatment Essence draws on Warhol's fascination with broadcast media and uses the tagline "broadcast your beauty." The packaging features Warhol's iconic television technicolor test patterns and is available in three colorways. Additionally, the limited-edition packs are signed with Warhol's uplifting quotes.
