Sustainable Gen Z Skincare

Plenaire Appeals to Environmentally Conscious Gen Z Consumers

Plenaire is a new line of Gen Z skincare products that appeals to the sustainably minded consumer with solutions that are eco-friendly, minimalist and inclusive. The direct-to-consumer brand based out of the UK was developed closely with a Gen Z focus group to offer accessible luxury options.

Each Plenaire product is tied to a skincare routine that falls under a category like cleanse, energize or relax. Visually, each of these themes is represented by a cluster of particles of different densities.

Some of the Gen Z-targeted products available from Plenaire include the Rose Jelly makeup remover, a three-in-one exfoliating clay called Tripler, Skin Frosting and a Violet Paste blemish treatment. Soon, the brand will be expanding its product portfolio with other problem-solving solutions like a foaming cleanser, an exfoliating skin tonic and a mist.
