This year, to celebrate the World Cup in Brazil, Head & Shoulders shampoo had a special edition World Cup package created for it by illustrator Charis Tsevis and the Creable creative agency.

The packaging features the images of iconic sports players like Lionel Messi, [Pelé](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/refresh-the-game-campaign) and Radamel Falcao made from mosaics of the flags of the countries that they represent during the games. Although pictures of players and country flags are commonly featured in all sorts of World Cup-inspired packaging, this is a creative way to make use of them both. The dynamic limited edition packaging for men is a fun way for soccer fans to show some support for their home country, favorite team or player during the World Cup.
