Beginning with a product name with such rich visual imagery, designer Spencer Bigum had a little fun with the creation of [Turtle Wax](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-imobility) packaging. The line of car care solutions was given a fresh face, using the iconic motif of a reptile's back.

Taking full advantage of the tortoise theme and the trademark color green, the creative shaped these three bottles into elongated geometric interpretations of [turtle shells](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tortugaware). Together, the liquid polish, cleaner and swirl paste embody nearly identical forms with colorful accented labels that designate the different mixtures.

The goal of the [new identity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bachans) was to spark new interest in this range of effective auto maintenance products. Turtle Wax packaging excels in the way that it impresses like a high-end brand, but remains a more affordable choice.
