In-store promotion supports Lancome's 'For You' campaign

In order to attract interest to the beauty brand Lancome's 'For You' campaign, Primedia Unlimited's Fashion Media dominated promotional areas within five of Edgar's top stores across the country...

"The main thrust of the campaign was to promote Lancome's Gift with Purchase offering on our Activation Pad platform, which is a dedicated area within the store," said Fashion Media CEO Sean Reed. "To maximise awareness of the activation we had top make-up artists offering clients free product trials and advice. We believe that by including a hands-on experience element such as this, the advertiser maximises advertising return on investment."

To increase the reach, the two-week promotion also made use of promotional hot spots within 20 of Edgars' national stores and was supplemented with window displays and sensomatic sleeve branding.

Innovative, eye-catching and unique

"The Lancome 'For You' campaign was innovative, eye-catching and unique. The dark, rich colours that were used exuded love - love for Lancome's products and love for oneself," he said. 'My Lancome' celebrates a world of beauty and happiness; to love the women in you."

Reed concluded by stating: "We are confident that this campaign communicated the brand's message effectively and created consistency throughout."
