Lash Sensational — Maybelline’s fan-brush mascara franchise. Global 360 creative built around the single visual mechanic that made the product work: the fan.

GLOBAL 360 CAMPAIGNS Refreshing a classic mascara icon.

Refreshing a classic mascara icon. Lash Sensational was Maybelline’s best-selling mascara, known for delivering the full, fanned-out look that made it a staple in makeup bags everywhere.

With lash serums gaining popularity, the next step was clear—introduce a boosting serum designed to complement the mascara and improve results over time. Christy Turlington was the face of Lash Sensational and remained at the center.

The campaign refreshed the visuals while keeping the focus on the same mascara that built a legacy, now with a serum to enhance and extend the look over time. We ensured the launch felt modern and relevant while staying true to what made Lash Sensational a bestseller.

Refreshing a mascara icon.

Senior Art Director at GOTHAM, leading the global 360 creative for Lash Sensational — built around the single visual mechanic that made the product work: the fan.

Christy Turlington stayed the face of the line and at the center of the refresh. The work ran from art direction and lead design on every layout, through makeup, hair and fashion direction on set, to approving all of the retouching, mechanicals, video transfers, finishing and sound design across both the mascara and the serum’s print and video.
