Introduce a women’s magazine with two different covers. These magazines were placed in ladies salons and news stands in select cities of India. | |||
Solution |
Gillette partnered with Grazia, and released the same edition of the magazine with two different covers. One cover had the model clean-shaven with no body hair at all. The other cover had the same model sporting a stubble and body hair. Hidden cameras revealed which of these two magazines was being picked up most by women. It helped start a debate on what women think about stubble and body hair. |
