Before launching its latest product, [Glossier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balm-dotworld-mobile-truck) rewarded fans with a keen eye by sharing shoppable posters in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. The treasure hunt-inspired activation was made possible in collaboration with [Shop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shoplift-campaign), the commerce app from [Shopify](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragrance-billboard), and the experience specifically spoke to consumers in these major cities with Shop’s geo-gated location technology.

“Our goal with this campaign was to be disruptive, find a fresh way to bring a new brow product to the market, and generate engagement within our community,” said Glossier CMO Kleo Mack.

Before Glossier's Boy Brow Arch officially launched, consumers in the aforementioned cities had the chance to find a poster, scan a QR code and purchase from Glossier’s store within the Shop app. Thanks to Shop’s geo-gated location tech, consumers outside of New York, Los Angeles and Chicago didn't have access to the product until its wider launch a few days later.
