In an effort to court Gen Z consumers and their commitment to more inclusive beauty products, H&M Beauty has just launched the new Ohh! (Oh Hey Hero) collection of everyday essentials.
More than perhaps any other generation, Gen Z is all about celebrating individuality, as well as body acceptance and freedom of expression. H&M Beauty wanted to capture this sentiment by creating a line of everyday essentials with those values in mind. The new Ohh! (Oh Hey Hero) lineup consists of vegan and cruelty-free body care products such as the Little Champ Functional Moisturising Stick, the Clear Up Charlie Clarifying Body Serum, and the Skin Saver Sidekick Shaving Gel.
As Marjorie Lacombe-Jelinek, Global Creative Director for H&M Beauty describes the new collection, "While both H&M Beauty and Ohh! are elevated brands within the beauty ecosystem, Ohh! is focused more on positive honesty around body and skincare needs for our Gen Z customers."
