Inspired by the clinically backed OLAY Super Collection, OLAY launched Skinsurance, a new campaign positioning skin and body care as a long-term investment. Using insurance policies as a metaphor for protection against future damages like aging, dullness or rough texture, the campaign introduced curated "policies" in the form of bundles tailored to the needs of specific skin types, bringing advanced, results-driven skincare with hero ingredients like Vitamin C and niacinamide below the neck.
OLAY appointed entrepreneur and content creator Corporate Natalie as its first-ever Skinsurance Agent, and at the OLAY Skinsurance Office pop-up in New York, she introduced bundles for normal, dry, and rough and bumpy skin. At the event, attendees made the most of OLAY’s proprietary Skin Advisor tool to get personalized product recommendations tailored to their goals.
