CBA USA

/ CVS Health Beauty Brand

CBA USA has been named as the Designalytics Effectiveness Award Grand Prize Winner for the redesign of the CVS Health Beauty Brand. They also carried the additional honor of being the first private-label winner in the history of the award.

The Designalytics Effectiveness Award was created to help elevate the role of package design by spotlighting the immense financial impact that it can have on consumer brands. Winner selection was entirely data-driven, based on sales performance in the marketplace, as well as rigorous quantitative consumer testing.

The Beauty 360 brand from CVS had been competing with national brands by offering high-quality beauty and personal care products for years. With this redesign, CVS Beauty made a revolutionary shift — eliminating the Beauty 360 branding altogether and replacing it with the familiar CVS heart, while also communicating product efficacy, premiumness, and gender inclusivity.
