The Most Creative Campaigns, Brands
and Agencies in Health & Beauty

 
BEAUTY WAS MORE THAN SKIN DEEP AS COURAGEOUS CAMPAIGNS CHANGED PERCEPTIONS AND SPOKE MUCH-NEEDED TRUTHS.

The beauty sector is full of dubious claims and unrealistic images, but none of those were on show in the campaigns praised by juries in 2022. Quite the opposite, as brands broke taboos, fought preconceived ideas and aided those in need. The ground-breaking design of Rexona’s “Degree Inclusive” deodorant took the top slot, while Dove put its fight for real beauty in a new context. Tena and Impact BBDO bravely tackled the subject of incontinence. And an unwearable fashion collection from Area 23 drew attention to an unbearable disease. Completing the top five, P&G and Leo Burnett launched a project that will improve the lives of young girls in India.

Story Dove is renewing the fight for real beauty standards by pushing into the activist digital era with a hard-hitting new campaigns. The crucial issue of women and girls’ self-esteem is once again top of the agenda, as Dove highlights the widespread damage caused by the trend of heavily-edited selfies. At the heart of the campaign is a 60 second film, "Reverse Selfie", and is a sequel to Dove’s seminal 2006 film ‘Evolution’, which highlighted the false and unrealistic nature of the beauty ideals perpetuated by the advertising industry and the media. The film begins with an image a young woman has posted of herself on social media. The action then rewinds, reversing all the tweaks and staging that have gone into creating that image, and revealing the shockingly young girl behind the picture.

Story We believe products reflect the people who create them. Our motto is “build with, not for”.Our team was an international, diverse and multi-disciplinary team, including a disabled inclusive designer, an engineer, occupational therapists, psychologists, disabled consultants all with the same belief that inequality is something that is designed.The disabled community told us that fear of sweating – and body odor - sometimes held them back from going out or doing things they wanted. Being able to use deodorant was essential for confidence.We identified the major challenges as grasping, opening, closing, application motions and tactile perceptibility.We worked from these insights in an agile way, 3D modeled the design iterations and printed in-house so we could quickly distribute for rapid feedback during COVID. Three rounds of iterations gave us the design for Degree Inclusive, a deodorant that’s easier to identify, handle, open, close and apply.
Problem We will all experience disability at some point in our lives. Today, 60 million adults in the US live with a disability. That’s 1 in 4!Degree, the world’s #1 deodorant, has an inclusive purpose – “To inspire confidence in everyone to move more”. A deodorant may seem like a trivial, mundane thing. Until you can’t open the cap, press down on the aerosol or apply it. Imagine the importance of deodorant for your confidence. Then imagine you are sweating more, because you are in a wheelchair. Finally, consider the neuroscience research that shows that being excluded hurts people just as much as physically being hit.That’s why inclusive design is so important. We believe that people with disabilities affecting their arms and/or vision should be able to take care of their hygiene needs independently.Degree Inclusive is revolutionizing design to make more products accessible for EVERYONE.

Story Ogilvy and Dove have been fighting unrealistic beauty standards since 2004. Sadly the beauty industry has become more toxic, and women’s confidence in their beauty is at an all-time low. To accelerate change in beauty our new platform Let’s Change Beauty is detoxifying beauty for Gen-Z women and girls through action.
 
We updated Dove’s iconic film from 2006 ‘Evolution’ for 2021. ‘Reverse-selfie’ starts with the perfectly edited selfie of what looks like a woman, and tracks the edits backwards until its true face, a 13-year-old girl, is revealed. The film's emotion comes from its authenticity.
But this is more than a film, it’s a movement to change selfie-culture. The film drove to the Dove Self Esteem Project’s free downloadable social media toolkits and guides. On social, Dove launched ‘No Digital Distortion’ with Lizzo as brand ambassador, utilizing her platform and followers for this important message.
 
Results
-Global earned impressions of 6 bn - 1.9billion in the first 2 days

Story Across MENA, incontinence is the most stigmatized of health conditions. Women struggling with incontinence are associated with “Age of Despair”, a phrase commonly used to describe menopause. So to drive confidence amongst women in the Middle East and challenge negative perceptions, we created a campaign that destroyed the phrase “Age of Despair.” We empowered women to be who they want to be; intimate, active, funny, fashionable. As a result, TENA became the No.1 incontinence product in the region, reaching 34.5% in value share and gained a unique reach of 613K on social and earned 4.7M video views.

TitelThe Missing Chapter (Film)
BriefWe designed a chapter that explains simple biology behind periods. To make the chapter unmissable even in media dark rural areas, we used India’s oldest broadcasting medium – THE WALL ART, for the first time to spread period education.To make sure the chapter was understood easily, we collaborated with local artists from 28 states to create custom hand painted wall art, native to each state’s art style and language.Every wall art was unique and included 3 critical steps – what are periods, how to use a sanitary pad and the importance of school during periods. The missing chapter was put up on school walls and on the way to school, where nobody can miss it.TA: Young girls (aged 12+ years) in media dark rural areas, on the verge of entering puberty and at risk to exit school due lack of period education.

Story The harmful advice, trends and products promoted by toxic influencers are creating a self-esteem crisis among teenage girls: 92% want to change the way they look, and 1 in 2 girls follow an influencer that makes them feel less confident. Our brief was twofold: firstly, to highlight the scale and harm of toxic trends across social platforms for parents, who are often unaware of what their daughters are seeing; and secondly, to help girls recognize and avoid toxic advice online. Tragically, toxic advice has now become so common, girls don’t even realize it’s toxic anymore. Our goal was to create a single, shareable film that would be relatable for both parents and their teen daughters, which spotlighted the issue as well as educating parents about resources from the Dove Self-Esteem Project they could use to help their daughters detoxify their feed.

TitelDot Go “object interaction” app
BriefFor blind and visually impaired people, it’s challenging to enter unfamiliar environments. Objection detection apps can identify objects but fail when it comes to interacting with these objects in a meaningful way.Dot Go is the first object interaction app, which means that it not only detects objects in the environment but also connects them to actions. These actions could be internal actions like sounds and vibration, or external actions in apps, websites, and smart home devices.For example: A bus stop sign could trigger open the public transportation app to buy the right ticket.Anyone can customize these connections and share them with the community. Dot Go serves as an inclusive accessibility toolkit. In 2021, Dot Go received funding from Inter-American Development Bank with WheelTheWorld. The app is available for free download from the App Store and is currently being used by thousands of users, businesses, brands, and organizations.

Story Dot Go, the first app that connects objects to actions, has launched in the App store.

Philosophie Dot Go, the first app that connects objects to actions, has launched in the App store. The innovative platform created by Serviceplan Innovation and Dot Incorporation and developed by Hyperinteractive for blind and visually impaired people, is now available worldwide on the App Store and can be downloaded for free on the latest iPhones and iPads. Serviceplan Innovation has found a solution to this problem. Dot Go is the first ever “object interaction” app. Unlike existing apps, it not only detects objects in the environment but also connects them to actions. These actions can be executed automatically and range from internal actions like sounds and vibration; to, most importantly, external actions in other apps, websites, and even smart home devices. Besides the novel concept of “object interaction”, the innovative nature of Dot Go relies on another key component. Existing object detection apps all rely on proprietary object libraries and closed systems, designed for fixed use cases rather than increasing user needs. This leads to fragmentation and makes solutions increasingly expensive, forcing users to choose between adaptability and their individual needs. Dot Go is already being used by thousands of blind users, businesses, brands and organizations around the world. One such partnership is with U.S. start-up Wheel the World, who provide accessible tourism experiences. Funded with 140,000 USD by the Inter-American Development Bank, Dot Go and ‘Wheel The World’ created trips for the blind in Chile in spring 2022. The experience was rated highly by the participants, captured in a film documentary, and will be expanded to more countries later this year.
