THE VASELINE
Vaseline® believes that truly healthy skin starts with deep healing moisture. It’s not something you get by masking
problems or through quick fixes. We know this because we are the original skin experts. Founded in 1870 by Robert
Chesebrough, Vaseline® has been safely helping skin heal for over 140 years. We invite you to take a trip back in time
overa centuryof healingtowhere itall began.
1859
THE DISCOVERY
Robert Augustus Chesebrough, a 22 year-old British
chemist, travelled to Titusville, a small Pennsylvania
town where petroleum had recently been discovered.
Chesebrough, who had been making kerosene from the oil
of sperm whales, was eager to learn what other products
could be made from petroleum. Shortly after arriving in
Titusville he became intrigued by a naturally-occurring
byproduct of the oil drilling process that seemed to have
remarkable skin-healing properties. While watching the
oilmen, Chesebrough took note of how they would smear
their skin with the residue from the drill to help heal their
cuts and burns. Inspired, Chesebrough began his quest to
help heal America’s dry skin.
1865
PURIFYING THE JELLY
After five years of perfecting his extracting technique, in 1865 Chesebrough patented this process of making
petroleum jelly – the beginning of the triple-purification process unique to the Vaseline® brand. To this day,
Vaseline® Jelly is the only petroleum jelly with a triple-purification seal. This certifies that every jar of
Vaseline® Jelly is purified not once, but three times before it ever reaches a shelf. It is filtered and distilled
to clean, and de-aerated to remove air bubbles, ensuring every jar is completely pure.

1870
“WONDER JELLY”
A true scientist, Chesebrough spent over a decade perfecting his
extraction and purification process before introducing his “Wonder
Jelly” to the American public on a larger scale. Confident that his
product would appeal to the medical industry after seeing firsthand how
safe and pure it was for many different uses, Chesebrough opened a
factory in Brooklyn, NY in 1870.
At the same time, Chesebrough traveled around the state of New York in
a horse and cart, spreading the word about his "miracle" product by
demonstrating on himself – burning his skin with acid or an open flame
and then spreading the clear jelly on his injury, showing at the same time past injuries that had healed with
the aid of his protective jelly.
1872
OFFICIAL NAME ORIGINS
Though “Wonder Jelly” had a nice ring to it, in 1872, Chesebrough registered the jelly as “Vaseline,” which
is believed to be derived from a combination of the German word for water, wasser, and the Greek word for
oil, oleon. The new name appeared to work! By 1874, only two years after its branding, Vaseline® Jelly was
being sold across the U.S. at the rate of a jar a minute. That’s over 1,400 jars a day!
4
1880s
THE MANY USES OF VASELINE
People began to discover the many safe and diverse uses of pure Vaseline® Jelly and soon, it was in almost
every medicine cabinet in America. New mothers used it for their babies’ diaper rash, while professionals
working in extreme cold weather used it to relieve dry, chapped skin. However, with success comes
imitation. Imitation petroleum jellies began popping up across the U.S. To ensure that consumers were using
only the best and most purified jelly, Chesebrough launched the iconic Blue Seal to mark authentic and
original products. Today, the blue seal remains on all Vaseline® moisturizing products, like our lotions,
because they are the only line of lotions that contain the original, triple-purified Vaseline® Jelly.
1883
THE ROYAL TREATMENT
The highest honor that a British monarch can
bestow on a subject is a knighthood. Queen
Victoria, who ruled over a quarter of the world’s
population, not only decided that Chesebrough
was worthy of such an honor, but also told the
indefatigable chemist that she too was a fan of his
versatile and transformative product, and used
Vaseline® Jelly to help heal her dry skin.
5
EARLY 1900s
GLOBAL EXPANSION
Vaseline® Jelly spread from continent to continent where it was relied upon by “real folks” as the safest and
purest option to heal and moisturize. To accommodate this rapid expansion, Chesebrough moved U.S.
manufacturing to Perth Amboy, NJ and opened factories in Europe, Canada and Africa. Sir Robert
Chesebrough retired as the president of his company in 1908.
1933
SIR CHESEBROUGH’SLEGACY
Sir Robert Chesebrough passed away at the age of
96.That’s 25 years longer than the average life
expectancy of 61.7 years in the U.S. at that time.
6
1943
SAVING LIVES AND MAKING NEWS
Vaseline® Jelly became a staple in another World War. The
Surgeon General of the U.S. Military during World War II went as
far as commissioning a sterile Vaseline® Jelly coated gauze to
send to the front. The gauze worked so well in safely helping heal
soldiers’ wounds that the New York Times ran a story that saying
that 75 serious burn victims had survived and recovered with the
help of Vaseline® Jelly
1955
JOINING FORCES WITH PONDS
Chesebrough Manufacturing Co. merged with Pond's Extract Company to form Chesebrough-Ponds, Inc
1969
INTRODUCING THE INTENSIVECARE LOTION
Vaseline launched Vaseline® Intensive Care Lotion, which quickly became
a success. The release was paired with one of the brand’s earliest
promotions, The Dry Leaf Campaign. The ads, which aired on TV and were
published in print showed a very dry leaf being revitalized by the lotion,
highlighting the need to heal and protect skin, rather than just beautify it.
7
1987
PART OF THE UNILEVERFAMILY
When Unilever purchased Chesebrough-Pond’s Inc. in 1987, its line of
Vaseline® products had grown to include moisturizing products like lip
care products and lotions relied on to heal dry skin across the globe from
Miami to Moscow, Melbourne to Mumbai.
2005
NEW RECORDS
Every 39 seconds a tub of Vaseline Jelly was sold somewhere in the world.
PRESENT DAY
The Vaseline® brand has had a rich and landscaped history and all of it stems from Sir Robert
Chesebrough’s belief in his creation in 19th Century. As we continue to innovate and develop new products,
we will not forget his determination and passion for understanding skin. It is our goal to make the original,
triple-purified Vaseline Jelly the core of every product because there is no jelly with a longer history of
locking in moisture to heal dry skin.

Sunsilk
International branding
Sunsilk is sold under a variety of different names in markets around the world including Elidor, Seda and
Sedal. The brand is strongest in Asia, Latin America and the Middle East and is the number one hair care
brand in Pakistan, India, Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Thailand.
History
Sunsilk was launched in the UK in 1954, and by 1959 it was available in 18 different countries worldwide.
At the time, Sunsilk had an advantage over other shampoos in the market as it only needed one application,
and so meant washing less natural oils from the hair. Sunsilk cream shampoo for dry hair was launched in
1956.
In 1958, a new transparent polythene tube for the liquid
shampoo was introduced as an alternative large size pack to the
bottle. Sunsilk was also available in such tubes.
In 1960, Sunsilk Tonic shampoo was launched, containing
skin healing ingredient Allantoin – designed to help keep the
scalp free from infection.
In 1961, Sunsilk Liquid shampoo was re-launched to Sunsilk
Beauty, because ‘Liquid’ in the name, originally used to
distinguish the product from powdered shampoos had become
meaningless as the majority of shampoos were now in liquid
form.
In 1962, Sunsilk was marketed as a range of shampoos for different hair types.Sunsilk significantly
improved product formula and launched new variants in 1966: the first major shampoo to contain olive oil,
which acted as conditioner to make hair soft and manageable; shampoo for dull hair, which restored hair’s
natural shine; lemon shampoo for greasy hair with deep cleansing ingredients.
Sunsilk hair spray was first launched in 1964 to enter an expanding hair-spray market, but in 1966 a new
product formula was developed which gave hold, even in damp weather whilst still caring for hair. The hair
spray contained a French perfume and could easily be removed by brushing or shampooing it out.
In 1969, all Sunsilk shampoo was re-packaged in new PVC bottles, which were larger than traditional glass
bottles for the same price.
By the early 1970s, Sunsilk was manufactured in 27 countries, and was the closest thing to a global hair care
brand.Sunsilk conditioner was launched in 1971 with three variants for dry, normal and greasy hair. In 1973,
Sunsilk launched an aerosol-dispensed setting lotion. An economy size shampoo bottle was introduced for
Sunsilk in 1974.
In 1975, Sunsilk became the biggest name in hair care with 1,000,000 packs being sold every week.
In 1980, the whole Sunsilk range was re-launched, with improved formulations and packaging design to
bring the brand into the 1980s.
9
In 1985, Sunsilk styling mousse was launched and 2 years later a conditioning mousse followed.
In 1993, Sunsilk/Seda/Sedal/Elidor launched a new range of shampoos and conditioners, which were
developed to meet women’s hair needs and reflect the way women think about their hair. The fake institute
(a trademark by Seda/Sedal) "Elida Hair Institute" developed the products in response to market research.
Each product contained a unique formulation of ingredients, combining the best from natural and scientific
worlds to help combat common hair problems.By the same year,Sunsilk/Seda/Sedal/Elidor in some countries
has borne the mark "Elida Hair Institute"
In 2001, Sunsilk moved into the hair colourant market for Asian-type dark hair. Sunsilk Pro-Colur offers a
range of seven permanent colours from natural black to copper with purple, red and gold tints.

Media advertising
Sunsilk began its first television advertising in 1955 with a campaign that focused on specific hair "issues".
In the UK, the campaign focused on shiny hair. During the 1960s, a television commercial of Sunsilk
featured a tune composed by John Barry, “The Girl with the Sun in Her Hair”, which proved so popular that
it was subsequently released as a pop single.
Sunsilk radio commercials were aired in 1969 featuring Derek Nimmo to support the new Sunsilk Herb
shampoo for problem hair called “Hairy Tales”. In the early 1970s, Sunsilk was advertised with the slogan
“All you need is Sunsilk”.
Celebrity associations
Madonna, Natalia Oreiro, Shakira, and Marilyn Monroe all featured in Sunsilk's 2008 advertising campaign
“Life Can’t Wait” which launched with a Super Bowl XLII spot. The philosophy behind the campaign was
about girls taking positive steps to gain better control of their lives “Hair On = Life On”.
Actress and Model Humaima Malick is the brand ambassador for Sunsilk in Pakistan.Actress and former
Model Yureni Noshika is the brand ambassador for Sunsilk in Sri Lanka.Actress and former Miss World
Priyanka Chopra is the brand ambassador for Sunsilk in India. In 2009, actress and singer Delta Goodrem
was announced as the "face of Sunsilk" in Australia. The singer and her music have since featured in several
Sunsilk adverts.
In 2007, British girlband Girls Aloud launched a campaign for Sunsilk after securing a sponsorship deal
worth over £1,000,000. Members Nicola Roberts, Nadine Coyle, Cheryl Cole, Kimberly Walsh and Sarah
11
Harding all represented the brand, which included shooting a television commercial. Sunsilk also sponsored
their following tour.
Magazine
In 2003, Sunsilk (Sedal) launched the first hair only glossy magazine in Argentina aiming to communicate to
the professional hair industry. More than 800,000 copies are published each month. The magazine focuses on
hair, fashion and beauty issues as well as showcasing hairdressers’ work. It is sold locally on news stands
and distributed to hair salons.
Co-Creation collaboration
From 2009 Sunsilk started working with a number of
professional hair "experts" to develop new and improved
products. Each hair “issue" variant links to an "expert” with
the relevant specialist hair knowledge. For example, Dr
Francesca Fusco, a New York dermatologist, co-created a
“hairfall” variant for the brand. The line up also includes:
Jamal Hammadi for Black Shine, Rita Hazan for Vibrant
Colour, Teddy Charles for Plumped Up Volume, Thomas
Taw for Damage Reconstruction, Ouidad for Defined Curls
and Yuko Yamashita - inventor of Japanese hair
straightening process 'YUKO' - for Perfect Straight.
Availability
Sunsilk is available in over 60 countries worldwide. However Sunsilk products seem to be no longer
available in the United States and Canada. The Sunsilk website has a list of countries where their products
are sold, in which the USA is not one of them.

LUX
LUX is a global brand developed by Unilever. The range of products includes beauty soaps, shower gels,
bath additives, hair shampoos and conditioners. Lux started as “Sunlight Flakes” laundry soap in 1899.
In 1925, it became the first mass-market toilet soap in the world. It is noted as a brand that pioneered female
celebrity endorsements. As of 2009, Lux revenue was estimated at €1 billion, with market shares spread out
to more than 100 countries around the globe.
Today, Lux is the market leader in countries like India, Pakistan, Brazil, Thailand and South Africa.
Developed by Unilever, Lux (soap) is now headquartered in Singapore.
History
The brand was founded by the Lever Brothers in 1899 and now known as Unilever.
The name changed from “Sunlight Flakes” to “Lux” in 1900, a Latin word for “light”
and suggestive of “luxury.”
Lux toilet soap was launched in the United States in 1925 and in the United Kingdom
in 1928. Subsequently, Lux soap has been marketed in several forms, including
handwash, shower gel and cream bath soap.
Beginnings
Lux’s early advertising campaigns aimed to educate users about its
credentials as a laundry product and appeared in magazines such as
Ladies Home Journal. By the early 1920s, it was a hugely successful
brand and in 1924, the Lever Brothers conducted a contest that led them
to a very interesting finding: women were using Lux as pud soaps.
Building beauty soap credentials
Introduced in the United States in 1924, Lux became the world’s first mass market toilet soap with the
tagline “made as fine as French Soap”. In the first two years of launch, Lux concentrated on building its
beauty soap credentials. Advertisements offered consumers “a beauty soap made in the French method” at an
affordable price, with the promise of smooth skin.Made with fine-texture, rich in fragrance, and
manufactured using a method created in France, the first Lux toilet soap was sold for 10 cents apiece.
1928–1940: 9 out of 10 stars
This era saw key launches of LUX in the UK, India, Argentina and Thailand. The brand concentrated on
building its association with the increasingly popular movie world, focusing more on movie stars and their
roles rather than on the product. In 1929, advertising featured 26 of the biggest female stars of the day,
creating a huge impact among the movie-loving target audience. This was followed by Hollywood directors
talking about the importance of smooth and youthful skin. This pioneered the trend of celebrity product
endorsements.
13
40s & 50s: Romancing the consumer
Using movie star as role models, Lux’s strategy was to build relevance
by looking at beauty through the consumer’s eyes. While still retaining
the star element, the focus shifted to the consumer and the role of the
brand in her life.
Advertising commercials showed ordinary looking women with direct
references to leading ladies from the movies such as Deanna Durbin and
Deborah Kerr.
1960s: Romancing the brand
In the 1960s, advertising was shifted to product stories and the romanticizing of brand through its “sensorial
& emotional” dimensions. This was the era of ‘the film star feeling’ and the ‘Golden Lux’, featuring stars
such as Sandra Dee, Diana Rigg and Samantha Eggar.
The bathing ritual, the ‘fantasy’ element that has been the imagery of Lux, was created in this era. The brand
also moved forward with launching LUX in the Middle East, entering a more conservative market.
1970s: Dimensional zing beauty
Reflecting the shift in beauty trends in the 1970s, the Lux stars stepped down from their pedestals and were
portrayed as multi-faceted women with natural, wholesome beauty that the ordinary consumer could relate
and aspire to. The executions were more of ‘a day in the life’ of the stars with focus on their ‘natural beauty’.
Stars included Brigitte Bardot and Natalie Wood.
1980s: Owning the category space
Establishing itself as the beauty soap for stars and beautiful women, the 1980s emphasized the importance of
skin care – the first step to beauty. Lux was launched in China at this time. Sophia Loren, Raquel Welch and
Cheryl Ladd were some famous celebrities used during this time.
In India, actresses such as Hema Malini, Parveen Babi, Madhuri Dixit, Rani Mukerji and Aishwarya Rai
have endorsed Lux soap.
1990s – Early 2000s: Advanced skin benefits
In the 1990s, Lux moved from generic beauty benefits to focus on specific benefits and transformation. More
emphasis on functionality and variant associations with different skin types as well as mention of
ingredients. The communication was far more regional specific and localized, using in Brazil stars like Malu
Mader and Debora Bloch.
This period launched product brand extensions Shower Cream and Gels and Lux Super Rich Shampoo in
Japan and China.
14
2000s: Beyond movie stars
In early 2000, the focus shifted from specific skin benefits to a stronger emotional space. The brand provided
the link between the aspirational role models and real life with the campaign, ‘Lux brings out the star in
you’. The benefit was now more than just beauty, it was also about the confidence that comes from beautiful
skin.
In 2005, Lux encouraged women to celebrate and indulge their femininity with the “Play with Beauty”
philosophy, with stars like Aishwarya Rai. The brand also connected with consumers to take a more ‘active’
stance on beauty.
From 2008, building off the brand’s root strengths, focus has shifted to beauty (vs. femininity), appealing to
consumers’ fantasies and aspirations. Lux believes that ‘beauty is a female instinct that shouldn’t be denied’
and showcases the pleasure that every woman enjoys from using her beauty, encapsulating that idea in a
simple phrase: Declare your beauty.
Today, Lux products are manufactured at 71 locations with more than 2000 suppliers and associates
providing the raw materials. It has key markets in the developing countries like Brazil, Pakistan, China,
Bangladesh and South Africa, and is a market leader in for soap bars in India, Pakistan, Brazil, Saudi Arabia,
Bangladesh, Thailand and Vietnam.
In the United States, Lux soap is branded as "Caress".

Olay
Olay is an American skin care line. It is one of Procter & Gamble's multibillion-dollar brands. For the 2009 fiscal year,
whichendedonJune 30, Olayaccountedfor an estimated$2.8 billionof P&G's$79 billioninrevenue.
Olay originated in South Africa as Oil of Olay. Graham Wulff (1916–2008), an ex-Unilever chemist from
Durban, started it in 1949. The name "Oil of Olay" was chosen by Wulff as a spin on the word "lanolin", a
key ingredient.
It was unique in the early days because it was a pink fluid rather
than a cream, packaged in a heavy glass bottle. Wulff and his
marketing partner, Jack Lowe, a former copywriter, had tested the
product on their wives and friends and were confident in its
uniqueness and quality.
Olay's marketing was also unique, since it was never described as a
moisturizer, nor even as beauty fluid. Nowhere on the packaging did
it say what the product actually did. Print adverts used copy such as
“Share the secret of a younger looking you” and talked about the
‘beauty secret’ of oil of Olay. Other adverts were written as personal
messages to the reader from a fictitious advice columnist named
Margaret Merril. They ran in Reader's Digest and newspapers and
often looked like editorials.
Wulff and Lowe, who ran the company under the banner of Adams National Industries (ANI), did not sell
the product to the trade, but waited for pharmacies to ask for it based on consumer requests.
As the company began to market the product internationally, it was decided to modify the name of the
product in each country so it would sound pleasing and realistic to consumers. This led to the introduction of
Oil of Ulay (UK and Ireland), Oil of Ulan (Australia) and Oil of Olaz (France, Italy, the Netherlands and
Germany). In 1970, ANI opened a test market in US (Chicago), and was expanding into northern Germany.
1970–1985
Richardson Merrell Inc (later Richardson-Vicks Inc) acquired ANI
in November 1970. RVI capitalized the "Oil" and added the sub-
name "Beauty Fluid" to help protect the trade mark. They further
added a sales force and created TV advertising. The company
extended the product range to include items such as Night of Ulay
and Beauty Cleanser, and expanded into more countries (Spain,
France, Germany)
The result of Richardson Merrell's efforts was a dramatic increase in
sales. However, as with many brands, the business was not managed
uniformly so there were differences in performance between the
countries.
1985–2005
RVI was acquired by Procter & Gamble in 1985. P&G greatly expanded Olay both in lineup and
internationally. Olay became <2013 Annual Report> P&G's 13th billion dollar brands in 2003.
Since then, the range has been expanded to include a full range of hypoallergenic variants, cleansers and
creams with the aim of meeting the full range of skincare needs, whatever the user's age or skin type. The
brand also includes soap, and body wash. Olay Cosmetics was launched in 1996 but discontinued in 2001.
16
Name change
In 1999, it was decided to unify the brand under a global name. Thus, Oil of Ulan and Ulay became Olay on
a worldwide basis, except in German-speaking regions and Italy, where it remained Oil of Olaz. In the
Netherlands and Belgium, it was renamed just Olaz.
So what's good
One of Olay's bestsellers comes from their Total Effects range – the Total
Effects Touch of Foundation (£18.99, available from the Guardian Fashion
Store) – one of which sells somewhere in the world every two minutes. It's a
light day moisturiser with SPF15 with, as the name suggests, a hint of
foundation. Others might call it a tinted moisturiser but there is a significant
difference. On discussing the highly important matter with a friend who uses it
most days, we declared it better than a tinted moisturiser as it actually did
moisturise the skin.
Today
The Olay brand has expanded into a range of other products grouped in “boutiques” including Complete,
Total Effects, Professional, Regenerist, Quench (North America), White Radiance (Asia) and Olay Vitamins
(US). Olay is the market leader in many countries including the US, UK, and China. Olay has extended its
heritage as a moisturizer to stay looking young, to formally creating the "anti-aging" category in mass stores
with the launch of Total Effects in 1999. Active Hydrating Formula, generally the least expensive variety,
bears the closest resemblance to the pink "Oil of Olay" marketed in the US before the P&G acquisition. The
launch was almost double the typical price of a mass market moisturizer at the time. Today, there are
numerous products on the market that are more expensive than Olay.
Olay Regenerist was the best performing anti-aging cream in a 2006 test done by a consumer association,
outperforming some much more expensive brands. This report also stated:

In August 2007, Olay was launched in India.
Olay's current slogan is "Challenge what's possible", which was changed from "Love the skin you're in".
Since 2010, "Oil of OLAZ" has simply been known as "OLAZ" in German-speaking countries. Slogan:
"Olaz lässt Sie strahlen." (lit: "Olaz lets you shine.")
The Olay/Olaz brand is known for animal testing, according to a list published by PETA

Nivea
Nivea (pronounced [niˈveːaː]is a German personal care
brand, that specializes in skin- and body-care. It is owned by
the Hamburg based company Beiersdorf Global AG. The
company was founded on March 28, 1882, by pharmacist
Paul Carl Beiersdorf. In 1900, the new owner Oscar
Troplowitz developed a water-in-oil emulsion as a skin cream
with Eucerit, the first stable emulsion of its kind. This was the
basis for Eucerin and later, Nivea. Nivea comes from the
Latin word niveus/nivea/niveum, meaning 'snow-
white'.During the 1930s, Beiersdorf began producing such
products as tanning oils, shaving creams, shampoo and facial
cleanser and toners. The trademark "Nivea" was expropriated
in many countries following World War II. Beiersdorf
completed buying back the confiscated trademark rights in
1997. During the 1980s, the Nivea brand expanded into a
wider global market.
History
1882: Pharmacist Paul Carl Beiersdorf establishes the company on March 28. Nivea originated in Germany.
The date of the patent document for the manufacture of medical plasters is taken as the date of the
company’s formation.Carl Paul Beiersdorf produces gutta-percha plasters in his laboratory on the basis of his
patent, laying the foundations for modern plaster technology.
1890: Pharmacist Oskar Troplowitz (born in 1863 in the Prussian City of Gleiwitz - nowadays Gliwice,
Poland) takes over the company.1892: The first international cooperation agreement is concluded with U.S.
trading company Lehn & Fink for the U.S.1900: Patent application for Eucerit, an emulsifying agent. Eucerit
is the basis for Eucerin and, later on, for Nivea Creme.
18
Before World War I
1906: The first overseas branch is established in London.
1909: Labello is launched on the market. It is the first lip care
product in sliding tube packaging. The term Labello is derived from
Latin for "beautiful lip" (labeo = lip; bello = beautiful).
1911: Nivea Creme – the first stable water-in-oil emulsifier – is
introduced. The emulsifying agent Eucerit is made from lanolin,
found in sheep's wool, and is the key to Nivea Creme's unique
properties.
1918: The deaths of Oskar Troplowitz and his partner Otto Hanns
Mankiewicz result in the formation of a stock corporation (limited
company) on June 1, 1922.
Between the wars
1922: Willy Jacobsohn takes over as Chairman of the Executive
Board of the newly formed stock corporation. The first self-
adhesive plaster is introduced under the name Hansaplast.
In 1924, Nivea remodeled its cream in a blue tin with a white logo.
1925: Nivea is relaunched in blue packaging.
1929: Beiersdorf shares are listed on the Hamburg stock exchange
for the first time. Over 20 production sites worldwide are already in
operation.
1933: Under the pressure of National Socialist propaganda, the
Jewish members of the Executive Board step down. Willy
Jacobsohn, the former Chairman of the Executive Board, heads the
foreign affiliates from Amsterdam until 1938.
After World War II
1945: At the end of the Second World War, a majority of the Hamburg
production plants and administrative buildings have been destroyed
through Allied bombing.
1945-1949: Most of the affiliates and the international trademarks in
almost all countries, in particular in the USA, UK and the
Commonwealth, and France, are lost. The Beiersdorf company begins to
regain its trademarks again.
 During World War II, the marketing manager Elly Heuss-Knapp
distanced the brand from Nazi ideology. In 1949 she became the wife
of TheodorHeuss.
1950: ph5 Eucerin is launched on the market. This innovative ointment
focuses on the importance of the skin’s own natural protective acid

Dove
Dove is a personal care brand owned by Unilever originating in the
United Kingdom. Dove products are manufactured in Argentina,
Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, India, Indonesia, Israel,
Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, Pakistan, Philippines, South Africa,
Thailand, Turkey and United States. The products are sold in more than
80 countries and are offered for both women and men. Dove's logo is a
silhouette profile of the brand's namesake bird.
Dove believes that beauty - feeling and looking your personal best - is
the result of proper care. Dove always aims to deliver products which
tangibly improve the condition of skin or hair and give a pleasurable
experience of care, because when you look and feel beautiful, it makes
you feel happier. It’s a feeling every woman should experience every day.From the beginning Dove has
always celebrated real women at the heart of everything the brand does and believes. Real beauty embraces
diversity - no woman is or should feel excluded from the world of beauty that the brand represents. Real
women are the brand’s true inspiration.
Product lines
Products include: antiperspirants/deodorants, body washes, beauty bars,
lotions/moisturizers, hair care, and facial care products. Dove is
primarily made from synthetic surfactants, vegetable oils (such as palm
kernel) and salts of animal fats (tallow). In some countries Dove is
derived from tallow and for this reason it is not considered vegan, unlike
vegetable oil based soaps.
Unilever launched a men's toiletries range in 2010, branded "Dove Men
+ Care"
The Dove difference
The Dove brand started its life in 1957 in the US, with the revolutionary
new beauty cleansing Bar. With its patented blend of mild cleansers and
¼ moisturising cream, Dove’s iconic Beauty Bar rinses cleaner than
soap, leaving skin clean, soft and smooth. It is #1 Dermatologist
Recommended brand in the US, Canada and France and strongly endorsed by Dermatologists across the
world.Dove brand’s heritage is based on moisturisation - proof not promises grew Dove from a Beauty Bar
into one of the world’s most beloved beauty brands. Today Dove offers a range of products: Body Washes,
Hand and Body Lotions, Facial Cleansers, Deodorants, Shampoos, Conditioners and Hair Styling products,
all developed on the universal premise of real care.
Dove Campaign for Real Beauty
In 2004, Dove began its Campaign for Real Beauty, followed by the creation of the Dove Self-Esteem Fund
in 2006. It purports to be "an agent of change to educate and inspire girls on a wider definition of beauty and
to make them feel more confident about themselves". Dove have created a number of largely online-only
short films, including Daughters (which was also broadcast during the Super Bowl XL), Evolution (which
won two awards at the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival), Onslaught and Amy.
The campaign has been criticized as hypocritical in light of the highly sexualized images of women
presented in the advertising of Axe, which like Dove is produced by Unilever.
21
A compelling social mission
In a world in which girls are too often held back by low self-esteem and anxiety about their looks, Dove's
Social Mission is to ensure that the next generation grows up enjoying a positive relationship with the way
they look and to help them reach their full potential in life.
The Dove Self-Esteem Project (DSEP) was launched in 2004 when our Campaign for Real Beauty was in its
infancy. At the core of the project are Dove's self-esteem education programmes that build young people's
body confidence and strengthen their sense of self-worth. Today, Dove is the largest provider of body
confidence education in the world.

Axe
Axe (also known as Lynx in the United Kingdom, Ireland,
Australia, New Zealand, and People's Republic of China) is
a brand of male grooming products, owned by the British–
Dutch company Unilever and marketed towards the young
male demographic.
Products
Scentshave evolvedovertime.From1983 until about1989, the
variantnameswere descriptionsof the fragrancesandincluded
Musk,Spice, Amber,Oriental,and Marine.From 1990 until 1996,
geographicnamesforfragrances were used.In2009, the brand
launchedan8-centimetercontainercalledthe Axe Bullet.The
brand hasalso extendedintootherareas.
Most scent names usually have a shower gel to accompany them and sometimes an antiperspirant/deodorant
stick and an aftershave lotion. The Axe Shampoos come in three different sizes, regular size, travel or sample
size of and XL bottles were introduced recently. Axe also ships a shower scrub tool called the Axe Detailer.
Axe also launches limited edition variants from time to time that may be on sale for a few months or over a
year.
Marketing
From 2003, Axe advertisements portrayed various ways the
products supposedly helped men attract women. In 2003,
the advertising in the UK for the Pulse fragrance showed
how it supposedly gave geeky men the confidence to dance
to get women. In 2005, Consumer Expert Dr. Vince Wong,
CEO of Insights Interactive, was hired to help explore
cross cultural behavioral motivations of their young male
adult consumers. This fed into development of the brand
globally, resulting in award winning global communication
campaigns. This was followed by Touch, Unlimited, Clix,
and in 2007, Vice was marketed on a theme of making
"nice" women become "naughty".
PR controversies
Adverse publicity has been generated by the product's advertisements for encouraging sexual promiscuity
and sexism.
The Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood claimed that Bartle Bogle Hegarty's work on Axe
"epitomizes the sexist and degrading marketing that can undermine girls' healthy development."
On January 12, 2008 12-year-old Daniel Hurley from Derbyshire, England died in a hospital five days after
collapsing at his home. The medical coroner ruled that he had suffered from cardiac arrhythmia and died
from heart failure as a result of spraying large amounts of Lynx in a confined space.
Videos on social networking sites depicted teens setting themselves on fire. The trend resulted in multiple
injuries.After these incidents occurred, the company created two ads, one against the use of Axe as an inhalant, and
the otherwarningof itsflammability.
23
Axe Apollo Space Academy (AASA)
Axe initiated a marketing campaign whereby the company would select people in a worldwide contest to
become astronauts who would fly sub-orbital space missions aboard the XCOR Lynx spaceplane. On
December 5, 2013, Axe announced the 23 space cadets who had won the extensive training competition held
at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The winners were from 23 different countries, some which had
never been an astronaut before. The suborbital rides may to take place after the as yet unbuilt Lynx rocket
has passed flight test objectives.

Fair & Lovely
Fair & Lovely is a skin-lightening cosmetic product of Hindustan Unilever introduced to the market in India
in 1975. Fair & Lovely is available in India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei, Thailand, Sri Lanka,
Pakistan and other parts of Asia and is also exported to other parts of the world such as the West, where they
are sold in Asian supermarkets.
Fair & Lovely is the first fairness cream in the world with 100% safe ingredients and is dermatologist tested
and proven.Fair & Lovely’s unique patented formula is put together through extensive consumer research
and clinical studiesthe product efficacy is tested and proven by dermatologists. All active ingredients in the
Fair & Lovely formulation function synergistically to lighten skin color through a process that is natural,
reversible and completely safe.
Keeping in mind different requirements of various skin types, Fair & Lovely offers its consumers in the
Middle East a range of variants and cleansers. From the leading Advanced Multi Vitamin Fairness Cream to
Moisture Plus for dry skin, Herbal Balance for sensitive skin and Anti Marks for blemish-prone skin. Fair &
Lovely is constantly looking at bringing in new innovations that suit the Middle Eastern market and meet its
consumer’s needs and aspirations.
Unilever patented the brand Fair & Lovely in 1971 after
the patenting of niacinamide, a melanin suppressor,
which is the cream's main active ingredient. As of 2012 the
brand occupied 80% of the fairness cream market in India, and
is one of Hindustan Unilever's most successful cosmetics
lines.The target consumer profile for Fair & Lovely is the 18
and above age group, and the bulk of the users are in the age 21-
35 category, though there is evidence that girls as young as 12-
14 also use the cream.[4]
Marketing for the product in all
countries implies whiter skin equates to beauty and self-
confidence. Hindustan Unilever Limited research claims that
“90 percent of Indian women want to use whiteners because it is
aspirational, like losing weight. A fair skin is like education,
regarded as a social and economic step up."Following controversy, including a television advertisement in which the
actor Saif Ali Khan prefers the fair-skinned Neha Dhupia over darker-skinned Priyanka Chopra, the company had to
suspend television advertisements for the product in 2007.
STORY
In 1973, a research scientist in the Hindustan Unilever lab discovered that vitamin B3 could lighten skin
colour when applied topically. Realising its potency and immense potential, he began exploring the
possibility of using it to alter skin pigmentation.
The World’s First Fairness Expert
After two years of meticulous research and experimentation, the world’s first lightening cream, Fair &
Lovely, was launched. Using 100% safe ingredients, it provided effective and visible fairness to women, and
more than that, it provided hope. Hope to millions of women around the world, especially in Asia, who
desired fairer and even-toned skin, for how it made them feel about themselves, and for how it made the
world see them.
25
40 Years of Innovation
Being firmly established as the global leading fairness cream doesn’t mean we stop innovating. It means we
work harder at it than ever. Fair & Lovely had its genesis in a scientific discovery, and science is where the
heart of our business always is. Through unceasing rigorous research and development, we seek to deliver
fairness treatments with superior efficacy, to reach more and more women around the world.
Impacting Lives of Women
Fair & Lovely has reflected a Women’s
Dreams for the past 40 years. This is a brand,
which has championed the deepest ambitions
and desires of women. Throughout its history,
Fair & Lovely has inspired women to go for
their dreams, even if they were at odds with
what society expected them to do. In the 80’s,
when society expected women to marry
mostly via arranged marriages, Fair & Lovely
gave them hope that women could marry by
choice. In the 90s, when women desired not
just marriage but also an equal partnership,
Fair & Lovely inspired them to believe that
this was possible. In the 2000s, when society
believed that a woman’s place was at home,
Fair & Lovely encouraged her to choose her own career. And today, when despite much progress, women
still don’t get equal opportunities and society continues to impose barriers for women, Fair & Lovely will
give women the confidence to overcome their own hesitations & fears to achieve their true potential.
Fair & Lovely wants to create a positive change in the society in its own small way – by helping women get
the confidence to pursue their dreams and ambitions.Fair & Lovely will do this by not just inspiring women
but also enabling them by giving opportunities like higher education, career and entrepreneurship via the Fair
& Lovely Foundation.
FAIR & LOVELY FOUNDATION
Fair & Lovely Foundation was instituted as part of Fair & Lovely’s brand philosophy of empowering women
to give them the confidence and self-belief to pursue their dreams. The key focus of Fair & Lovely
Foundation is to make a meaningful difference to the lives of the young girls who receive the scholarship so
that they become an inspiration for many more young women like them to have the confidence and self-
belief to pursue their dreams. Fair & Lovely Foundation is our global initiative to economically empower
millions of women and positively impact society. We invest heavily in the potential of women, to enable
them to change their destiny.

records through a national application process. To date, we have made access to quality higher education a
reality for over 1200 women.

your destiny.
Pond's
Pond's is a brand of beauty and health care products, currently owned by
parent company the multinational corporation Unilever.
History
Pond's Cream was invented in the United States as a patent
medicine by pharmacist Theron T. Pond (1800–1852) of Utica,
New York, in 1846. Mr. Pond extracted a healing tea from witch
hazel [Hamamelis spp.] which he discovered could heal small
cuts and other ailments. The product was named "Golden
Treasure." After Theron died, it would be known as "Pond's
Extract."
In 1846, the "T.T. Pond Company" was formed with Pond and other
investors. Soon after, he sold his portion of the company because of
failing health. He died in 1852. In 1914, the company was
incorporated under the name "Pond's Extract Company".
The company then moved to Connecticut establishing its
manufacturing center there. Later it moved its sales office to
New York City.
In 1886, Pond's began to advertise nationally. They advertised
under the name of Pond's Healing until 1910.
By the twentieth century, the company's main emphasis was
selling cosmetics products. The "Pond's Vanishing Cream" and
the "Pond's Cold Cream" were created, marking the entrance of
Pond's products into the facial care industry. Today Ponds is
sold around the world. Its largest markets are in Spain and in
Asia, including India, Japan and Thailand.
27
From one man in a tiny home-made laboratory, to today's state-of-the-art R&D facilities led from Bangkok,
Mumbai, New York and Tokyo, the Pond's promise has remained the same across 58 countries: to deliver
products that make a real difference to women's skin and the way they live their lives.
The Pond’s story began in 1846 when Theron T. Pond, a pharmacist from Utica, New York, introduced a
witch-hazel based wonder product, called ‘Pond’s Golden Treasure’. Forty years later it was re-launched as
Pond’s Extract and then, in 1914, Pond’s Cold Cream and Vanishing Cream marked the brand’s evolution
into a beauty icon.
By the 1990s the face care market was responding to the introduction of products delivering unmet needs.
Worldwide research meant that Pond's was at the forefront of colour management developments in Asia,
while it also pioneered the use of AHAs for anti-ageing in the US. Cutting-edge innovation and an
understanding of women's individual needs – and their desire for beautiful skin – have maintained Pond's
strong position in a dynamic global arena.
The Pond’s range can care for any woman’s skin, whatever their needs.

same time, Hydro nourishing Cream, leaves skin feeling beautifully soft, smooth and replenished. Contains

luminosity with its clever blend of moisturisers, vitamins and elastin. It works to help smooth out the
appearance of fine lines and hydrate the eyelashes without irritating your delicate eye area.

beauty essential for over 100 years - combining gentle deep cleansing with moisture that stays locked in. Dry
Skin Cream is a rich moisturizer that is quickly absorbed into the skin and it provides essential hydration for
dry skin. Original Fresh Towelettes were the first to make removing dirt, makeup and impurities as easy as
one simple swipe.

  • 2. 2 THE VASELINE Vaseline® believes that truly healthy skin starts with deep healing moisture. It’s not something you get by masking problems or through quick fixes. We know this because we are the original skin experts. Founded in 1870 by Robert Chesebrough, Vaseline® has been safely helping skin heal for over 140 years. We invite you to take a trip back in time overa centuryof healingtowhere itall began. 1859 THE DISCOVERY Robert Augustus Chesebrough, a 22 year-old British chemist, travelled to Titusville, a small Pennsylvania town where petroleum had recently been discovered. Chesebrough, who had been making kerosene from the oil of sperm whales, was eager to learn what other products could be made from petroleum. Shortly after arriving in Titusville he became intrigued by a naturally-occurring byproduct of the oil drilling process that seemed to have remarkable skin-healing properties. While watching the oilmen, Chesebrough took note of how they would smear their skin with the residue from the drill to help heal their cuts and burns. Inspired, Chesebrough began his quest to help heal America’s dry skin. 1865 PURIFYING THE JELLY After five years of perfecting his extracting technique, in 1865 Chesebrough patented this process of making petroleum jelly – the beginning of the triple-purification process unique to the Vaseline® brand. To this day, Vaseline® Jelly is the only petroleum jelly with a triple-purification seal. This certifies that every jar of Vaseline® Jelly is purified not once, but three times before it ever reaches a shelf. It is filtered and distilled to clean, and de-aerated to remove air bubbles, ensuring every jar is completely pure.
  • 3. 3 1870 “WONDER JELLY” A true scientist, Chesebrough spent over a decade perfecting his extraction and purification process before introducing his “Wonder Jelly” to the American public on a larger scale. Confident that his product would appeal to the medical industry after seeing firsthand how safe and pure it was for many different uses, Chesebrough opened a factory in Brooklyn, NY in 1870. At the same time, Chesebrough traveled around the state of New York in a horse and cart, spreading the word about his "miracle" product by demonstrating on himself – burning his skin with acid or an open flame and then spreading the clear jelly on his injury, showing at the same time past injuries that had healed with the aid of his protective jelly. 1872 OFFICIAL NAME ORIGINS Though “Wonder Jelly” had a nice ring to it, in 1872, Chesebrough registered the jelly as “Vaseline,” which is believed to be derived from a combination of the German word for water, wasser, and the Greek word for oil, oleon. The new name appeared to work! By 1874, only two years after its branding, Vaseline® Jelly was being sold across the U.S. at the rate of a jar a minute. That’s over 1,400 jars a day!
  • 4. 4 1880s THE MANY USES OF VASELINE People began to discover the many safe and diverse uses of pure Vaseline® Jelly and soon, it was in almost every medicine cabinet in America. New mothers used it for their babies’ diaper rash, while professionals working in extreme cold weather used it to relieve dry, chapped skin. However, with success comes imitation. Imitation petroleum jellies began popping up across the U.S. To ensure that consumers were using only the best and most purified jelly, Chesebrough launched the iconic Blue Seal to mark authentic and original products. Today, the blue seal remains on all Vaseline® moisturizing products, like our lotions, because they are the only line of lotions that contain the original, triple-purified Vaseline® Jelly. 1883 THE ROYAL TREATMENT The highest honor that a British monarch can bestow on a subject is a knighthood. Queen Victoria, who ruled over a quarter of the world’s population, not only decided that Chesebrough was worthy of such an honor, but also told the indefatigable chemist that she too was a fan of his versatile and transformative product, and used Vaseline® Jelly to help heal her dry skin.
  • 5. 5 EARLY 1900s GLOBAL EXPANSION Vaseline® Jelly spread from continent to continent where it was relied upon by “real folks” as the safest and purest option to heal and moisturize. To accommodate this rapid expansion, Chesebrough moved U.S. manufacturing to Perth Amboy, NJ and opened factories in Europe, Canada and Africa. Sir Robert Chesebrough retired as the president of his company in 1908. 1933 SIR CHESEBROUGH’SLEGACY Sir Robert Chesebrough passed away at the age of 96.That’s 25 years longer than the average life expectancy of 61.7 years in the U.S. at that time.
  • 6. 6 1943 SAVING LIVES AND MAKING NEWS Vaseline® Jelly became a staple in another World War. The Surgeon General of the U.S. Military during World War II went as far as commissioning a sterile Vaseline® Jelly coated gauze to send to the front. The gauze worked so well in safely helping heal soldiers’ wounds that the New York Times ran a story that saying that 75 serious burn victims had survived and recovered with the help of Vaseline® Jelly 1955 JOINING FORCES WITH PONDS Chesebrough Manufacturing Co. merged with Pond's Extract Company to form Chesebrough-Ponds, Inc 1969 INTRODUCING THE INTENSIVECARE LOTION Vaseline launched Vaseline® Intensive Care Lotion, which quickly became a success. The release was paired with one of the brand’s earliest promotions, The Dry Leaf Campaign. The ads, which aired on TV and were published in print showed a very dry leaf being revitalized by the lotion, highlighting the need to heal and protect skin, rather than just beautify it.
  • 7. 7 1987 PART OF THE UNILEVERFAMILY When Unilever purchased Chesebrough-Pond’s Inc. in 1987, its line of Vaseline® products had grown to include moisturizing products like lip care products and lotions relied on to heal dry skin across the globe from Miami to Moscow, Melbourne to Mumbai. 2005 NEW RECORDS Every 39 seconds a tub of Vaseline Jelly was sold somewhere in the world. PRESENT DAY The Vaseline® brand has had a rich and landscaped history and all of it stems from Sir Robert Chesebrough’s belief in his creation in 19th Century. As we continue to innovate and develop new products, we will not forget his determination and passion for understanding skin. It is our goal to make the original, triple-purified Vaseline Jelly the core of every product because there is no jelly with a longer history of locking in moisture to heal dry skin.
  • 8. 8 Sunsilk International branding Sunsilk is sold under a variety of different names in markets around the world including Elidor, Seda and Sedal. The brand is strongest in Asia, Latin America and the Middle East and is the number one hair care brand in Pakistan, India, Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Thailand. History Sunsilk was launched in the UK in 1954, and by 1959 it was available in 18 different countries worldwide. At the time, Sunsilk had an advantage over other shampoos in the market as it only needed one application, and so meant washing less natural oils from the hair. Sunsilk cream shampoo for dry hair was launched in 1956. In 1958, a new transparent polythene tube for the liquid shampoo was introduced as an alternative large size pack to the bottle. Sunsilk was also available in such tubes. In 1960, Sunsilk Tonic shampoo was launched, containing skin healing ingredient Allantoin – designed to help keep the scalp free from infection. In 1961, Sunsilk Liquid shampoo was re-launched to Sunsilk Beauty, because ‘Liquid’ in the name, originally used to distinguish the product from powdered shampoos had become meaningless as the majority of shampoos were now in liquid form. In 1962, Sunsilk was marketed as a range of shampoos for different hair types.Sunsilk significantly improved product formula and launched new variants in 1966: the first major shampoo to contain olive oil, which acted as conditioner to make hair soft and manageable; shampoo for dull hair, which restored hair’s natural shine; lemon shampoo for greasy hair with deep cleansing ingredients. Sunsilk hair spray was first launched in 1964 to enter an expanding hair-spray market, but in 1966 a new product formula was developed which gave hold, even in damp weather whilst still caring for hair. The hair spray contained a French perfume and could easily be removed by brushing or shampooing it out. In 1969, all Sunsilk shampoo was re-packaged in new PVC bottles, which were larger than traditional glass bottles for the same price. By the early 1970s, Sunsilk was manufactured in 27 countries, and was the closest thing to a global hair care brand.Sunsilk conditioner was launched in 1971 with three variants for dry, normal and greasy hair. In 1973, Sunsilk launched an aerosol-dispensed setting lotion. An economy size shampoo bottle was introduced for Sunsilk in 1974. In 1975, Sunsilk became the biggest name in hair care with 1,000,000 packs being sold every week. In 1980, the whole Sunsilk range was re-launched, with improved formulations and packaging design to bring the brand into the 1980s.
  • 9. 9 In 1985, Sunsilk styling mousse was launched and 2 years later a conditioning mousse followed. In 1993, Sunsilk/Seda/Sedal/Elidor launched a new range of shampoos and conditioners, which were developed to meet women’s hair needs and reflect the way women think about their hair. The fake institute (a trademark by Seda/Sedal) "Elida Hair Institute" developed the products in response to market research. Each product contained a unique formulation of ingredients, combining the best from natural and scientific worlds to help combat common hair problems.By the same year,Sunsilk/Seda/Sedal/Elidor in some countries has borne the mark "Elida Hair Institute" In 2001, Sunsilk moved into the hair colourant market for Asian-type dark hair. Sunsilk Pro-Colur offers a range of seven permanent colours from natural black to copper with purple, red and gold tints.

  • 10. 10 Media advertising Sunsilk began its first television advertising in 1955 with a campaign that focused on specific hair "issues". In the UK, the campaign focused on shiny hair. During the 1960s, a television commercial of Sunsilk featured a tune composed by John Barry, “The Girl with the Sun in Her Hair”, which proved so popular that it was subsequently released as a pop single. Sunsilk radio commercials were aired in 1969 featuring Derek Nimmo to support the new Sunsilk Herb shampoo for problem hair called “Hairy Tales”. In the early 1970s, Sunsilk was advertised with the slogan “All you need is Sunsilk”. Celebrity associations Madonna, Natalia Oreiro, Shakira, and Marilyn Monroe all featured in Sunsilk's 2008 advertising campaign “Life Can’t Wait” which launched with a Super Bowl XLII spot. The philosophy behind the campaign was about girls taking positive steps to gain better control of their lives “Hair On = Life On”. Actress and Model Humaima Malick is the brand ambassador for Sunsilk in Pakistan.Actress and former Model Yureni Noshika is the brand ambassador for Sunsilk in Sri Lanka.Actress and former Miss World Priyanka Chopra is the brand ambassador for Sunsilk in India. In 2009, actress and singer Delta Goodrem was announced as the "face of Sunsilk" in Australia. The singer and her music have since featured in several Sunsilk adverts. In 2007, British girlband Girls Aloud launched a campaign for Sunsilk after securing a sponsorship deal worth over £1,000,000. Members Nicola Roberts, Nadine Coyle, Cheryl Cole, Kimberly Walsh and Sarah
  • 11. 11 Harding all represented the brand, which included shooting a television commercial. Sunsilk also sponsored their following tour. Magazine In 2003, Sunsilk (Sedal) launched the first hair only glossy magazine in Argentina aiming to communicate to the professional hair industry. More than 800,000 copies are published each month. The magazine focuses on hair, fashion and beauty issues as well as showcasing hairdressers’ work. It is sold locally on news stands and distributed to hair salons. Co-Creation collaboration From 2009 Sunsilk started working with a number of professional hair "experts" to develop new and improved products. Each hair “issue" variant links to an "expert” with the relevant specialist hair knowledge. For example, Dr Francesca Fusco, a New York dermatologist, co-created a “hairfall” variant for the brand. The line up also includes: Jamal Hammadi for Black Shine, Rita Hazan for Vibrant Colour, Teddy Charles for Plumped Up Volume, Thomas Taw for Damage Reconstruction, Ouidad for Defined Curls and Yuko Yamashita - inventor of Japanese hair straightening process 'YUKO' - for Perfect Straight. Availability Sunsilk is available in over 60 countries worldwide. However Sunsilk products seem to be no longer available in the United States and Canada. The Sunsilk website has a list of countries where their products are sold, in which the USA is not one of them.
  • 12. 12 LUX LUX is a global brand developed by Unilever. The range of products includes beauty soaps, shower gels, bath additives, hair shampoos and conditioners. Lux started as “Sunlight Flakes” laundry soap in 1899. In 1925, it became the first mass-market toilet soap in the world. It is noted as a brand that pioneered female celebrity endorsements. As of 2009, Lux revenue was estimated at €1 billion, with market shares spread out to more than 100 countries around the globe. Today, Lux is the market leader in countries like India, Pakistan, Brazil, Thailand and South Africa. Developed by Unilever, Lux (soap) is now headquartered in Singapore. History The brand was founded by the Lever Brothers in 1899 and now known as Unilever. The name changed from “Sunlight Flakes” to “Lux” in 1900, a Latin word for “light” and suggestive of “luxury.” Lux toilet soap was launched in the United States in 1925 and in the United Kingdom in 1928. Subsequently, Lux soap has been marketed in several forms, including handwash, shower gel and cream bath soap. Beginnings Lux’s early advertising campaigns aimed to educate users about its credentials as a laundry product and appeared in magazines such as Ladies Home Journal. By the early 1920s, it was a hugely successful brand and in 1924, the Lever Brothers conducted a contest that led them to a very interesting finding: women were using Lux as pud soaps. Building beauty soap credentials Introduced in the United States in 1924, Lux became the world’s first mass market toilet soap with the tagline “made as fine as French Soap”. In the first two years of launch, Lux concentrated on building its beauty soap credentials. Advertisements offered consumers “a beauty soap made in the French method” at an affordable price, with the promise of smooth skin.Made with fine-texture, rich in fragrance, and manufactured using a method created in France, the first Lux toilet soap was sold for 10 cents apiece. 1928–1940: 9 out of 10 stars This era saw key launches of LUX in the UK, India, Argentina and Thailand. The brand concentrated on building its association with the increasingly popular movie world, focusing more on movie stars and their roles rather than on the product. In 1929, advertising featured 26 of the biggest female stars of the day, creating a huge impact among the movie-loving target audience. This was followed by Hollywood directors talking about the importance of smooth and youthful skin. This pioneered the trend of celebrity product endorsements.
  • 13. 13 40s & 50s: Romancing the consumer Using movie star as role models, Lux’s strategy was to build relevance by looking at beauty through the consumer’s eyes. While still retaining the star element, the focus shifted to the consumer and the role of the brand in her life. Advertising commercials showed ordinary looking women with direct references to leading ladies from the movies such as Deanna Durbin and Deborah Kerr. 1960s: Romancing the brand In the 1960s, advertising was shifted to product stories and the romanticizing of brand through its “sensorial & emotional” dimensions. This was the era of ‘the film star feeling’ and the ‘Golden Lux’, featuring stars such as Sandra Dee, Diana Rigg and Samantha Eggar. The bathing ritual, the ‘fantasy’ element that has been the imagery of Lux, was created in this era. The brand also moved forward with launching LUX in the Middle East, entering a more conservative market. 1970s: Dimensional zing beauty Reflecting the shift in beauty trends in the 1970s, the Lux stars stepped down from their pedestals and were portrayed as multi-faceted women with natural, wholesome beauty that the ordinary consumer could relate and aspire to. The executions were more of ‘a day in the life’ of the stars with focus on their ‘natural beauty’. Stars included Brigitte Bardot and Natalie Wood. 1980s: Owning the category space Establishing itself as the beauty soap for stars and beautiful women, the 1980s emphasized the importance of skin care – the first step to beauty. Lux was launched in China at this time. Sophia Loren, Raquel Welch and Cheryl Ladd were some famous celebrities used during this time. In India, actresses such as Hema Malini, Parveen Babi, Madhuri Dixit, Rani Mukerji and Aishwarya Rai have endorsed Lux soap. 1990s – Early 2000s: Advanced skin benefits In the 1990s, Lux moved from generic beauty benefits to focus on specific benefits and transformation. More emphasis on functionality and variant associations with different skin types as well as mention of ingredients. The communication was far more regional specific and localized, using in Brazil stars like Malu Mader and Debora Bloch. This period launched product brand extensions Shower Cream and Gels and Lux Super Rich Shampoo in Japan and China.
  • 14. 14 2000s: Beyond movie stars In early 2000, the focus shifted from specific skin benefits to a stronger emotional space. The brand provided the link between the aspirational role models and real life with the campaign, ‘Lux brings out the star in you’. The benefit was now more than just beauty, it was also about the confidence that comes from beautiful skin. In 2005, Lux encouraged women to celebrate and indulge their femininity with the “Play with Beauty” philosophy, with stars like Aishwarya Rai. The brand also connected with consumers to take a more ‘active’ stance on beauty. From 2008, building off the brand’s root strengths, focus has shifted to beauty (vs. femininity), appealing to consumers’ fantasies and aspirations. Lux believes that ‘beauty is a female instinct that shouldn’t be denied’ and showcases the pleasure that every woman enjoys from using her beauty, encapsulating that idea in a simple phrase: Declare your beauty. Today, Lux products are manufactured at 71 locations with more than 2000 suppliers and associates providing the raw materials. It has key markets in the developing countries like Brazil, Pakistan, China, Bangladesh and South Africa, and is a market leader in for soap bars in India, Pakistan, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Thailand and Vietnam. In the United States, Lux soap is branded as "Caress".
  • 15. 15 Olay Olay is an American skin care line. It is one of Procter & Gamble's multibillion-dollar brands. For the 2009 fiscal year, whichendedonJune 30, Olayaccountedfor an estimated$2.8 billionof P&G's$79 billioninrevenue. Olay originated in South Africa as Oil of Olay. Graham Wulff (1916–2008), an ex-Unilever chemist from Durban, started it in 1949. The name "Oil of Olay" was chosen by Wulff as a spin on the word "lanolin", a key ingredient. It was unique in the early days because it was a pink fluid rather than a cream, packaged in a heavy glass bottle. Wulff and his marketing partner, Jack Lowe, a former copywriter, had tested the product on their wives and friends and were confident in its uniqueness and quality. Olay's marketing was also unique, since it was never described as a moisturizer, nor even as beauty fluid. Nowhere on the packaging did it say what the product actually did. Print adverts used copy such as “Share the secret of a younger looking you” and talked about the ‘beauty secret’ of oil of Olay. Other adverts were written as personal messages to the reader from a fictitious advice columnist named Margaret Merril. They ran in Reader's Digest and newspapers and often looked like editorials. Wulff and Lowe, who ran the company under the banner of Adams National Industries (ANI), did not sell the product to the trade, but waited for pharmacies to ask for it based on consumer requests. As the company began to market the product internationally, it was decided to modify the name of the product in each country so it would sound pleasing and realistic to consumers. This led to the introduction of Oil of Ulay (UK and Ireland), Oil of Ulan (Australia) and Oil of Olaz (France, Italy, the Netherlands and Germany). In 1970, ANI opened a test market in US (Chicago), and was expanding into northern Germany. 1970–1985 Richardson Merrell Inc (later Richardson-Vicks Inc) acquired ANI in November 1970. RVI capitalized the "Oil" and added the sub- name "Beauty Fluid" to help protect the trade mark. They further added a sales force and created TV advertising. The company extended the product range to include items such as Night of Ulay and Beauty Cleanser, and expanded into more countries (Spain, France, Germany) The result of Richardson Merrell's efforts was a dramatic increase in sales. However, as with many brands, the business was not managed uniformly so there were differences in performance between the countries. 1985–2005 RVI was acquired by Procter & Gamble in 1985. P&G greatly expanded Olay both in lineup and internationally. Olay became <2013 Annual Report> P&G's 13th billion dollar brands in 2003. Since then, the range has been expanded to include a full range of hypoallergenic variants, cleansers and creams with the aim of meeting the full range of skincare needs, whatever the user's age or skin type. The brand also includes soap, and body wash. Olay Cosmetics was launched in 1996 but discontinued in 2001.
  • 16. 16 Name change In 1999, it was decided to unify the brand under a global name. Thus, Oil of Ulan and Ulay became Olay on a worldwide basis, except in German-speaking regions and Italy, where it remained Oil of Olaz. In the Netherlands and Belgium, it was renamed just Olaz. So what's good One of Olay's bestsellers comes from their Total Effects range – the Total Effects Touch of Foundation (£18.99, available from the Guardian Fashion Store) – one of which sells somewhere in the world every two minutes. It's a light day moisturiser with SPF15 with, as the name suggests, a hint of foundation. Others might call it a tinted moisturiser but there is a significant difference. On discussing the highly important matter with a friend who uses it most days, we declared it better than a tinted moisturiser as it actually did moisturise the skin. Today The Olay brand has expanded into a range of other products grouped in “boutiques” including Complete, Total Effects, Professional, Regenerist, Quench (North America), White Radiance (Asia) and Olay Vitamins (US). Olay is the market leader in many countries including the US, UK, and China. Olay has extended its heritage as a moisturizer to stay looking young, to formally creating the "anti-aging" category in mass stores with the launch of Total Effects in 1999. Active Hydrating Formula, generally the least expensive variety, bears the closest resemblance to the pink "Oil of Olay" marketed in the US before the P&G acquisition. The launch was almost double the typical price of a mass market moisturizer at the time. Today, there are numerous products on the market that are more expensive than Olay. Olay Regenerist was the best performing anti-aging cream in a 2006 test done by a consumer association, outperforming some much more expensive brands. This report also stated: But the U.S. consumerunionsaidnone of the creamstested produceda dramaticimprovement.: It advisedthatstayingoutof the sunor usingskinproductswitha highsunprotectionfactorwas the best option.

In August 2007, Olay was launched in India. Olay's current slogan is "Challenge what's possible", which was changed from "Love the skin you're in". Since 2010, "Oil of OLAZ" has simply been known as "OLAZ" in German-speaking countries. Slogan: "Olaz lässt Sie strahlen." (lit: "Olaz lets you shine.")

Dove have created a number of largely online-only short films, including Daughters (which was also broadcast during the Super Bowl XL), Evolution (which won two awards at the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival), Onslaught and Amy.

Marketing From 2003, Axe advertisements portrayed various ways the products supposedly helped men attract women. In 2003, the advertising in the UK for the Pulse fragrance showed how it supposedly gave geeky men the confidence to dance to get women. In 2005, Consumer Expert Dr. Vince Wong, CEO of Insights Interactive, was hired to help explore cross cultural behavioral motivations of their young male adult consumers. This fed into development of the brand globally, resulting in award winning global communication campaigns. This was followed by Touch, Unlimited, Clix, and in 2007, Vice was marketed on a theme of making "nice" women become "naughty". PR controversies Adverse publicity has been generated by the product's advertisements for encouraging sexual promiscuity and sexism. The Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood claimed that Bartle Bogle Hegarty's work on Axe "epitomizes the sexist and degrading marketing that can undermine girls' healthy development."

Pond's Pond's is a brand of beauty and health care products, currently owned by parent company the multinational corporation Unilever. History Pond's Cream was invented in the United States as a patent medicine by pharmacist Theron T. Pond (1800–1852) of Utica, New York, in 1846. Mr. Pond extracted a healing tea from witch hazel [Hamamelis spp.] which he discovered could heal small cuts and other ailments. The product was named "Golden Treasure." After Theron died, it would be known as "Pond's Extract." In 1846, the "T.T. Pond Company" was formed with Pond and other investors. Soon after, he sold his portion of the company because of failing health. He died in 1852. In 1914, the company was incorporated under the name "Pond's Extract Company". The company then moved to Connecticut establishing its manufacturing center there. Later it moved its sales office to New York City. In 1886, Pond's began to advertise nationally. They advertised under the name of Pond's Healing until 1910. By the twentieth century, the company's main emphasis was selling cosmetics products. The "Pond's Vanishing Cream" and the "Pond's Cold Cream" were created, marking the entrance of Pond's products into the facial care industry. Today Ponds is sold around the world. Its largest markets are in Spain and in Asia, including India, Japan and Thailand.
  • 27. 27 From one man in a tiny home-made laboratory, to today's state-of-the-art R&D facilities led from Bangkok, Mumbai, New York and Tokyo, the Pond's promise has remained the same across 58 countries: to deliver products that make a real difference to women's skin and the way they live their lives. The Pond’s story began in 1846 when Theron T. Pond, a pharmacist from Utica, New York, introduced a witch-hazel based wonder product, called ‘Pond’s Golden Treasure’. Forty years later it was re-launched as Pond’s Extract and then, in 1914, Pond’s Cold Cream and Vanishing Cream marked the brand’s evolution into a beauty icon. By the 1990s the face care market was responding to the introduction of products delivering unmet needs. Worldwide research meant that Pond's was at the forefront of colour management developments in Asia, while it also pioneered the use of AHAs for anti-ageing in the US. Cutting-edge innovation and an understanding of women's individual needs – and their desire for beautiful skin – have maintained Pond's strong position in a dynamic global arena. The Pond’s range can care for any woman’s skin, whatever their needs.
