For the UK launch of NYX’s Buttermelt Blush and Butter Gloss Bling, creative agency Backlash asked us to produce and install instore displays for four Boots stores in London, Sheffield, and Manchester. The setup included three-tiered “cake” photo ops, complete with pink glitter frosting for a fun, playful feel. We used bold shades of orange, yellow, and pink to reflect the colour scheme of the products’ packaging.
Alongside the cakes, we repurposed Mirror CTUs from the previous NYX ‘Duck Plump’ launch we produced, giving them a fresh look. We also made a “Meal Deal” podium to showcase the products. The final outcome looked good enough to eat!
