Overview

To launch the new Pitch Black Mascara from Rimmel London’s Thrill Seeker range, we didn’t just market a product – we unleashed it across the city. Partnering with Rimmel, we delivered an unmissable, omnichannel campaign built to stop Gen Z in their tracks.

Challenge

The affordable mascara market is fiercely competitive, with countless brands vying for consumers seeking high-quality products at reasonable prices.

How can Thrill Seeker Pitch Black, the brand’s newest shade, stand out and make a lasting impression on the fickle and demanding Gen Z?

Insight

Pitch black is a powerful color that can dramatically transform a look, adding a touch of boldness and intensity. Thrill Seeker Pitch Black’s unique formula and texture is a testament to that.

Strategy

We brought the pitch black look to the Tube, to London buses, to scannable murals delivering AR try-on effects and all over socials with FOOH. The city was transformed with the unmissable bold intensity of Thrill Seekers Pitch Black mascara.

Idea

A full-throttle city takeover. We made Pitch Black the boldest thing on the streets and in the feed:

  • Anamorphic and OOH across London, including bus t-sides and shopping centres

  • An industry-first Snap AR Landmark takeover

  • Interactive digital placements that used cameras to react to shoppers

  • ASMR-style TikTok Top View creative designed for thumb-stopping impact

  • A sampling push that put product directly into hands

  • Interactive UGC moments
