What I Want For The Packaging

The Packaging Target Points



 When designing the product packaging I want it to be for the three starter ranges, dry skin, oily skin and aged skin. This is the part of the project where I`m not trying to be the most creative with the shape of the packaging as I don't want to make really different packaging but I want to have different designs on the packaging that stands out from what Maybelline would normally do.

 First I had to look at what colours I wanted to use. I know that I want to use different colours for each range so that its easy to know which colour you should be using. This helps if the stand got messy and there was products in the wrong row you would know elementally because of the different colours on the box's. I have talked about this process in my journal as that's were I first planed out my ideas but I though to look up dry skin products to see what other used when being associated to try skin. I found out that most products were light green colours so I decided to try it could and I really liked that outcome. This is when I picked green for dry skin packaging. Then when it came to oily skin I went strati to yellow as its a harmonising colour to green and I wanted the colours to work well together because when there on the stand I want it to be approachable and if its to bright I don't think it looks approachable. Then a harmonising colour of yellow is orange, so I wont to use orange for the aged skin range so that all of my beginners ranges work well together.

Next I want to think about what I'm going to do to that design on the packaging that makes it fun and different but not to over the top. I want the design to be simple but related to the products. I think I will try and make the box's show the ranges that Maybelline have more clearly. What I mean by this is that Maybelline have quite a few collections that have products under on name. An example of this is the fit me collection. they have powders, foundations and concealer under the fit me name. I want to show that all these products are related by having them have the same style of packaging. I want there to be some type of design on the packaging so the once that are the same collection will have the same designs.

 That's my first thoughts about the packaging for my Maybellien re-brand. I really like my first thoughts on it, so I hope that they turn out like I am imaging them but I am open to change if I think of new ideas whiles designing.    
This is the notes from when I first thought about what I wanted for the new packaging. This shows where I talk about the colour theme and when I was playing around with the idea of keeping them harmonising.

Cosmetic Products - Safety Regulations

Safety Labels After finding the official legal document provided by the government on there cosmetic laws in the UK I was able to get a better understanding of what my packaging must include. This was informative because I do know that there has to be correct labels on packaging so that the consumer can see if they want to use it but I didn't know know enough  to create my own packaging  that applies with the law. I realised that the main Legal requirements are ... 1) All products should show on there packaging the correct labelling requirements. They have to comply with the law other wise they will be shut down.  2) All cosmetic movement should be recorded between retailers and records will be checked within a three year period, so the company's must provide the correct paperwork for ever sale or perches to prove the authenticity of the cosmetics. 3) The distributors should provide due care when selling on there products. This means that they should keep

Zine Forth Double Page Spread

Double Page Spread This is my final page in my Zine. I wanted my zine to show the progress of my logo design and this was the final page to showcase the final logo designs and the rules that go with them. I wanted this page to be easy to understand and still pleasing to look at even though I new it would have to be filled with information to explain the rules I am setting for the logo. I still went with the same layout as the other pages having the black and white split page with the Maybelline name in the corner of the page. I am happy with this overall and believe that my zine shows a natural progression of how my logo was designed with a professional feel. This is my sketch with the layout plan of what I was going with and I feel like I stuck to this quite well, the only main differences would be on the second page I added text to it as I though the images needed explaining to show what I was going with them. I made sure to stick to one side being about how ea

Zine Front Cover

Front Cover Options  The first page of my zine has two designs as in my journal I sketched out an idea but I had two ideas for the background. This is why I have two different options here but I have to look into the both and decide which one I think is best shows the message I am trying to send as well as the most ascetically pleasing.      The first idea that I spoke about in my journal was to have past campaigns in the background of the front cover with the text bold over the top saying “THE FUTURE OF” then the Maybelline name logo that I have chosen as my most favourite design. This idea at first wasn’t working out as I haven’t used In design before I didn’t know how to make an image smaller when copying it in, but after playing around with it I figured it out. This allowed me to create the cover you see to the left. The campaigns in the background are older campaigns which I copied over and sized down to fit onto the page, then I set he transparency of each image to
