Venus: Re-Righting the Rules for All Skin Types
The challenge: modernize Venus' message and image to reflect the evolving conversation around body positivity.
My role involved leading the creation of Studio V, an internal content studio. From strategy to execution we created a nimble,
in-house model that helped an old-school brand embrace inclusivity by redefining its relationship with skin.
Studio V was our answer to revolutionizing how Venus approached social media. We crafted brand-new guidelines, building a visual
and tonal identity that shifted the narrative to one of body positivity and fairness to all skin types. By “Re-Righting the Rules”, we helped Venus evolve into
a brand that truly cares about all skin, ensuring its message was fair, authentic, and empowering across all social channels.
