Nivea, the iconic cosmetics brand, which turned 100 last year, is launching new limited-edition packs designed by a fashion designer and leading brand and packaging design agency Bulletproof. The new ‘Nicola de Main’ packaging for Nivea Soft will arrive in stores across UK, Ireland, Scandinavia and The Netherlands in mid-May. The light-hearted and colourful design, which features springs birds, adds to the feeling of the season, sunny cheerfulness and warmth and echoes with the brand’s attitude of making life beautiful.

Nivea, which is celebrating its 100-year anniversary this year, is launching an integrated marketing promotion under the strapline ‘A million moments of closeness’ in the UK. The new activity comes as part of the broader ‘100 years skincare for life’ campaign, which was kicked off by the Beiersdorf-owned brand to commemorate its centenary—the celebration movement includes the partnership with singer Rihanna, book release as well as a range of activities, which highlight the brand’s rich heritage.
2011 is a remarkable year for Coca-Cola and Nivea—in May, the soft drink giant celebrated its 125th anniversary, and the legendary skin care brand is marking its 100th birthday throughout the year with a multi-platform marketing campaign.

But since brands should think about profits as well and consider people’s opinion about their eco-friendly products and approaches, as long as everything they do is primarily done for consumers, shoppers’ feedback is one of the major tools shaping the environmental principles of companies. Earlier this month, the ImagePower Global Green Brands Study, the largest in its 5-year history—was presented by Cohn & Wolfe, Esty Environmental Partners and Penn Schoen Berland—the study reveals current consumers’ attitude to green products and shows how it has changed over the past years.
