Sensodyne, a popular toothpaste brand owned by GSK, has announced the launch of Sensodyne Nourish, a new line of products geared towards a younger demographic.
The packaging design for the new products was made by design agency Marks, which developed a visual identity that would connect with a millennial audience, who, up until now, have been relatively unengaged with the brand. According to the agency, the new design aims to convey natural beauty and sensorial efficacy, and, as a result, it should appeal to those concerned with wellbeing, health, and the environment.
"The strategy and design process included extensive exploration, trying to push the brand in ways that it had never been pushed before, architecturally, visually, and in tone of voice," said Kashif Amin, associate creative director at Marks, in a recent press statement.
