making butter beautiful

Back in 2017, BKLYN Body was created by founder Jasmine for her baby daughter Brooklyn, who had excema. Jasmine developed a custom, clean-ingredient body butter, followed by lotion and oils.

 

THE SCENARIO:

Though the brand name was Brooklyn Body Butter, the company is based in a Detroit suburb. Jasmine wanted to take the brand to the next level for beyond-DTC distribution.

 

THE CHALLENGE:

We needed to move away from Brooklyn equities and convey a big brand impression, while reflecting the product’s bold scents and owner Jasmine’s outgoing personality.

OUR SOLUTION:

CSB created bold, serifed branding with fashion magazine cues and an optimistic, upward-facing ‘O’ to speak to the brand’s future.

We abbreviated the name to BKLYN Body for a hip, shorthand moniker and eliminated ‘butter’ to allow for expansion. As an intermediate step, we included ‘Brooklyn Body’ in sans serif type to aid consumer transition.
