Sensodyne Nourish Toothpaste & Brush
A new sub brand for the Sensodyne brand. Developed with natural and sustainable ingredients to attract younger millenial users.
Process & Remit
-
Within the wider Sensodyne brand reset it was identified a new range more approachable to millennials was key to shifting brand perception. Through a program of iterative workshops we worked with real consumers to create the ideal vision.
Working directly with real consumers
Visioning the brands, products and expereinces that resonate with the demographic
Creating mock up packs with users to show the core element
Qual/ Quant testing with wider audiences the insights and principles gleaned
-
Using insights from millenials in the co-creation phase, a design process was kicked off to bring together a new franchise of sensodyne together, specifically focused on
Conveying more natural science
More approachable and not a ‘finge wagging dentist’ telling users off
More transparency around sustainable sourcing, materials and processing
Improved Sensodyne flavour (product)
-
Global innovation for 120 countries requires a tight design concept that can be adapted across cultures, language formats and differing physical formats (print, digital, campaign).
I led 8 role out agencies across the design phases (concept, role out, artwork, shopper, E-commerce, Campaign) to ensure we had all assets and content, for local markets to then adapt with local language, recycling and ingredient specifications etc
This involved the creation of asset libraries and extensive toolkits.
-
Sensodyne as the highest financially valued brand within the GSK family of consumer health, meant as a brand we had constant leadership accountability on key projects, and key board milestones of reporting.
Nourish was a fantastic personal development project for me personal, as I worked and reported key project deliverables and strategy to the executive leadership across marketing and design. Strategising Research, Budget allocation, and Design.
Which led to additional projects and work where I managed RFQs of our agency partners, and overall design and sustainable design strategy for the organisation.

The final result landed with lifestyle & natural tones, whilst maintaining a scientific edge.

Brand Assets
Developing a design system and collection of assets/ and guides that enable the design to be interpreted by agency partners, and roll out markets.
With so many people involved in the brand design across the world these toolkits were essential to maitaining consistency in the roll out of the new sub brand.
