Sunshine Scents

Role: Creative Direction, Brand Positioning + Messaging, Content, Planning + Visual Direction

Sunshine Scents is a high quality product line that I elevated through brand strategy and creative direction into a captivating, recognizable lifestyle brand. I created the logo, visual identity, packaging, digital content, and customer experience, building a cohesive brand centered on self care through scent, mood, and intention.

The Opportunity

Define the Brand

Sunshine Scents had a high quality product offering, but needed a distinct identity, voice, and customer experience that could help it stand out in a crowded wellness and fragrance market. With this in mind I established three strategic priorities to guide the brand evolution:

  • Strengthen brand recognition

  • Build emotional connection

  • Create a scalable brand system
