Aurum Cosmetics — Launching a luxury skincare line

Aurum was launching a 6-SKU luxury skincare line and needed packaging that felt as premium as the formulation — without committing to 10,000-unit minimums that would tie up capital before product-market fit was proven.

The challenge

What the brand came in with.

Aurum was launching a 6-SKU luxury skincare line and needed packaging that felt as premium as the formulation — without committing to 10,000-unit minimums that would tie up capital before product-market fit was proven.

The solution

What we built together.

We produced a coordinated set of rigid boxes, folding cartons and luxury shopping bags from 50 units per SKU. The hero rigid box uses a flush-mount magnetic closure, soft-touch lamination and rose-gold foil. Cartons use SBS with spot-UV logo. Shopping bags are 250gsm art paper with edge-painted handles in cream.
