Guy-ified Gentle

Brands market cosmetics products to men with sensitive skin

Implications - Though skincare products for men are increasingly common, marketing strategies typically fall back on tropes like toughness and durability. Recognizing the reality of men's skins, savvy brands have introduced products that are marketed toward men who need gentle skincare products, upending traditional gender norms. With Gen Z increasingly spurning these norms, cosmetics brands with this forward-thinking approach can capture more of the future male market.
Workshop Question - How can your brand subvert gender stereotypes in your product's marketing?
