The Challenge

THE CHALLENGE

To celebrate the launch of their new CC+ Natural Matte Cream formula, iT Cosmetics asked us to develop an exclusive on-brand VIP event designed to leave a lasting impression on attendees, ensuring sustained brand visibility beyond the party. 

The brand sought to foster connections with media personalities and influencers, reinforcing the brand's identity to maintain top-of-mind awareness.

The Results

The Results

Gradient embraced the playful, confident, and visually vibrant codes of the iT Cosmetics brand to develop the “iT Cafe”, an interactive and on-trend brand playground. 

Guests were invited into an elevated, fun, and socially shareable brand café to enjoy a “Never Cakey Cake Pop” treat, sensory surprises, shade matching and makeup consultation, and UGC play. Extending the event beyond the VIP event, consumers were also able to enjoy a “taste of  iT” during a two-day public pop-up.
