ACUVUE® DEFINE APAC

Introduce ACUVUE® coloured contact lenses in the highly competitive Korean market

TAKING DEFINE FROM A COSMETIC LENS TO A FASHION STATEMENT

The Brief

ACUVUE® wanted to launch its luxury contact lens brand in Asia, mainly China, Japan and Korea. In a market flooded with coloured contact lenses and where the competition has the upper hand with packaging, colour options and variety, how can ACUVUE® stand out and win?

The Solution

We disrupted the contact lens category by playing up Define’s premium aspects, repositioning the brand as the Chanel of contact lenses.

Define became the new category-defining fashion lens, an object of desire, like the Chanel No.5 perfume. Our brand platform was built on the idea of craftsmanship, with the tagline “Craft Your Beautiful.”

We also defined the persona of the wearer and linked it to the value and beauty each lens brought to her life. From high-fashion looks to fantastical environments, we created an aspirational narrative through engaging campaign assets and content for each lens, bringing to life a unique story inspired by nature.

With engaging digital and social content, local websites and e-commerce, consumers could experience, try and own the lenses. Local markets were provided with toolkits for market usage.
