Highlighting a new product
To launch their new facial highlighter product, True Match Lumi Glow Illuminator, L’Oréal Paris wanted to give customers a unique experience. In addition to standard Promoted Pins, L’Oréal Paris also showed the product in action with Cinematic Pins, a mobile, motion-based Promoted Pin format that animates when customers scroll.
“Because this was a new product category for us, we wanted to elevate our typical launch strategy and actually show how the Lumi Glow Highlighter can accentuate our customer’s best features” said Amy Whang, Vice President of Cosmetics at L’Oréal Paris. “Since highlighting can be intimidating to some, using the Cinematic Pin not only inspired women to use a highlighter as their finishing touch, but also positioned L’Oréal Paris as a leader in the highlighting trend”.
With two different ad types - standard and Cinematic Pins - L’Oréal Paris were able to showcase the Lumi Highlighter to their audience, as well as educate them on how to use it. Standard Pins showed off the key features of the product, whilst Cinematic Pins used motion to demonstrate exactly where to apply the highlighter. Both standard and Cinematic Pins were used to display the variety of highlighter shades available.
