Lume Rebrand for Retail

Partnered with Lume’s internal creative team to evolve their brand identity as they expanded from viral success into retail. Focused on elevating the visual system to feel more premium and scalable, while keeping the quirky, science-backed tone that customers loved. Supported the rollout across campaigns, content, and product visuals, including building 3D renders in Adobe Stager for a more dynamic brand presence.

Scope & Vision

The ask was to refresh Lume’s brand as it evolved from a viral deodorant into a trusted personal care line expanding into retail. The goal: elevate the visual identity to feel more consistent, science-backed, and premium while keeping the quirky, approachable tone that made Lume stand out. We needed a scalable system that could flex across new products, campaigns, and content while staying bold and retail-shelf ready.

Approach

As part of the internal creative team, I collaborated on evolving Lume’s brand elements across paid ads, email, social, web, and internal brand foundation. I helped concept and applied the updated color palette, typography, and layout systems to campaign creative and developed modular templates to support high-volume content production. Working closely with brand, marketing, and strategy teams, I helped fine-tune the visual tone. Sometimes leaning clinical, sometimes keeping it playful, depending on the audience and channel.

The evolved visual system became bolder, brighter, and more simplified which helped Lume transition from viral sensation to trusted retail brand.
