The THAYERS Pop-Up in London explores the brand’s renowned 'Witch Hazel Toner.' This non-alcoholic formula is "clinically proven to reduce the appearance of pores within one week, and offers up to eight hours of hydration while remaining gentle and non-drying."
THAYERS has undergone a rebranding effort to appeal more directly to a younger audience, particularly teens and Gen-Z consumers. The brand has shifted from its traditional 'apothecary aesthetic' to a bold and confident rebrand, encouraging individuals to embrace and take ownership of their skin.
The pop-up event invites visitors to sample the iconic Witch Hazel Toner and gain insights into its benefits. A notable feature of the pop-up is "a reimagined British telephone box with an edgy American design," as described by Carina Garcia, Senior Art Director at Backlash, the experiential agency behind the event. This centerpiece reflects the new direction of THAYERS' branding and enhances the interactive experience for attendees.
