TAN KISSED
An intense, more pronounced tan. Kissed evokes the intimacy and intensity of a passionate kiss, suggesting a deeper, more pronounced sun-kissed glow.
Concept-led copywriter with 6+ years inside brand teams — turning briefs into ideas, and ideas into lines. Equally comfortable with long-form narratives and texts that make every word count.
The Challenge
Develop a cohesive naming system for a self-tanning range, giving each product a distinct identity while maintaining a consistent brand language.
The Idea
Inspired by the familiar expressions sun-kissed and sun-touched, the naming replaces sun with tan — bringing the emotional imagery of sunlight closer to the product's core function. Sun becomes tan: closer to skin, closer to result.
The Naming System
01 / 03
An intense, more pronounced tan. Kissed evokes the intimacy and intensity of a passionate kiss, suggesting a deeper, more pronounced sun-kissed glow.
02 / 03
A subtle, lighter-looking tan. Touched is the lighter end of the same scale.
03 / 03
Facial tanning drops, named for the product format. Completes the range with a more functional, format-led name inside the same TAN- prefix system.

The work below transforms BEAUTIFIC’s product benefits into a clear brand idea, built around an emotional message and brought to life through a manifesto.
The Challenge
Develop a distinctive positioning for BEAUTIFIC, a beauty brand offering effective skincare at accessible prices. The goal was to bring together the brand's functional benefits and emotional value, creating a clear foundation for its identity and future communications.
The Brand Idea
Confidence Is the New Beauty. A central brand idea that defines BEAUTIFIC’s emotional territory, with effectiveness, accessibility, and transparency bringing its promise to life.
The Thinking Process
BEAUTIFIC had a number of tangible advantages: effective formulas, quality ingredients, safety, local manufacturing, and accessible pricing.
But these benefits alone weren't enough to create a distinctive brand idea. Effectiveness and quality are what people expect from good skincare.
The bigger question was: What role can the brand play in people's lives beyond taking care of their skin and hair?
I looked for the point where the functional value of the product meets an emotional need.
Beauty no longer has to fit a single standard. It can take different forms, evolve with us, and exist without constant validation from others.
The freedom to experiment with our appearance doesn't eliminate the need for effective, safe, and reliable skincare. In fact, having the right foundation can make us feel more confident and free to express ourselves.
This was the strategic hypothesis behind the positioning, rather than a finding from a separate quantitative research study.
I brought two dimensions together:
Functional: Skincare should address real needs and deliver the results people expect.
Emotional: Skincare should help people feel more confident, embrace change, and define beauty on their own terms.
This shifted the brand's focus beyond formulas and ingredients towards the person using them — their needs, individuality, and freedom of self-expression.
The central idea emerged: Confidence Is the New Beauty.
It defines the brand's emotional territory, while effectiveness, accessibility, and transparency provide tangible proof of its promise.
The central idea became the foundation for a broader brand platform:
Positioning: Modern beauty products that combine effectiveness, accessibility, and freedom of self-expression.
Brand promise: Helping people find skincare that meets their needs without making the process unnecessarily complicated.
Tone of voice: Modern, open, confident, and supportive — without pressure or rigid beauty standards.
Reasons to believe: Functional formulas, attention to consumer needs, safety, quality, and accessible pricing.
Emotional territory: Confidence, experimentation, individuality, and the freedom to be different.
The idea needed to work across communications — from an emotional brand manifesto to a product description. The brand could speak about the freedom to be yourself and then reinforce that message with products designed to deliver real benefits.
The Manifesto · 05
If confidence is the new beauty, beauty no longer needs to dictate the rules. It should leave room for choice.
Not the kind you have to earn. Not the kind that fits someone else's expectations. And not the kind that looks the same on everyone.
Beautiful means being unapologetically yourself. Trying new things, experimenting, changing your mind, and choosing something completely different tomorrow. Today, this way. Tomorrow, another. Because you can. And because you want to.
We believe skincare should work for you, not make life more complicated. It should be effective, straightforward, and accessible. It should address real needs, respond to what matters to you, and give you the freedom to choose what works best for you.
That's why we create beauty products that combine effective formulas, attention to detail, and an honest approach to quality. No unnecessary promises. No single definition of what beauty should look like.
You don't have to fit someone else's idea of beauty. You don't have to stay the same when you're ready for a change. And you don't have to choose between effective skincare and the freedom to be yourself.
BEAUTIFIC is your foundation for experimentation, change, and confidence on your own terms.
Be different. Be real. Be in the moment.

The Outcome · 06
The work established a messaging platform connecting BEAUTIFIC's functional product benefits with a clear emotional territory. The central idea, Confidence Is the New Beauty, creates a unifying thread across the brand's positioning, mission, values, and key messages — and provides a foundation for different communication formats, from product copy focused on efficacy to brand storytelling centered on self-expression.
My role
Developed BEAUTIFIC's brand positioning, defined its central idea and messaging pillars, and translated the platform into a creative manifesto.
Curls aren't a problem to fix. They're potential waiting to be unleashed. Let them perform. A naming system and a voice that treats curly hair as something with character — not something you need to fight.
The Concept
Curls don't need to be controlled — they need to be helped to look expressive. The whole range is built on that single belief, written in a tone that's playful, confident, and a little flirty.
The Naming Principle
The line name CURL ME ON plays on turn me on — tying the brand's flirtatious energy to curly hair itself. That same intonation can travel through every product name and every pack line, holding the range together without repeating the same words.
The Line
01 / 03
The daily reset. Cleanses without stripping the shape out of the curl.
02 / 03
Slip, softness, and definition — the in-shower moment that sets up the rest of the day.
03 / 03
The finishing move. Holds the shape, brings the bounce, makes the curl the loudest thing in the room.
"Don't fight your curls.Turn them on." — Standout pack line, Curl Me On range
"Curls with an attitude. Hair that shows up before you do." — Standout product description
Tone of Voice
Confident, a little cheeky, never apologetic. The same brand voice works just as well on the front of a shampoo bottle as it does on a 200-word product page.
One Idea, Several Texts
The same “turn me on” idea runs through the copywriting for the shampoo, conditioner, and styling gel.
