Juicy Nostalgica

Localised PR Box Concept for Lancôme Juicy Tubes - Humanz

Challange

Reconnect Gen Z and Millennials with the cultural and emotional essence of the 2000s by reintroducing an iconic beauty product - Lancôme Juicy Tubes - in a way that’s fresh, fun, and collectable. Balance the emotional pull of nostalgia with a cohesive brand experience that feels intentional, not kitschy. Maintain a focus on beauty while incorporating childhood memories, music, and pop visuals without overwhelming the product itself.

approach

  • Product focus: Hero placement of Lancôme Juicy Tubes in a PR-style collectable box; supported by playful 2000s accessories like scrunchies, heart-shaped mirrors, retro candies and stickers. All physical elements are curated to reflect early 2000s aesthetics.

  • Brand stance: “A kiss from the past” - lean into nostalgia to form emotional connections. Present the product as both a beauty item and a cultural keepsake.

  • Visual language: Metallic orange and pink tones, bold 3D sticker details, Y2K collage aesthetics, chunky typography, and music-inspired graphics (mini CD stickers, QR music playlist) to evoke a full-sensory flashback.

  • Name & mark: NOSTALJİYE DUDAK AT as a tongue-in-cheek title that invites action and memory. Capsule shape and fold-out box design act as “time machines,” opening to reveal layered cultural and beauty artefacts.

A nostalgic time capsule designed around Lancôme Juicy Tubes, reviving early 2000s Turkish culture and beauty rituals.
