Transforming innovative ideas into commercial reality
We work with some of the world’s leading personal care and beauty brands, creating exceptional personal care products.
By combining the knowledge of our experts in science, engineering and design with our ability to rapidly evaluate and deploy new technology, we quickly and effectively transform ideas into commercial reality. This enables clients to be agile and ground-breaking — efficiently developing products for imminent and future needs, while retaining valuable IP ownership.
As consumers have ever-changing and sophisticated demands, brands need innovative personal care products and creative beauty product design to grab their attention. But with limited internal resources they struggle to make products that are purposeful, functional, attractive and up-to-date with their rapidly changing markets.
Here at Sagentia, we believe in the application of science to enable brands to deliver products that effectively capitalise on the need for sophisticated in-home treatments and in-home or in-store diagnostics. This means that we can develop personal care products with future-proof qualities, ensuring brands can surpass consumers’ expectations.
The pursuit of wellness: striking the balance between perception and proof
The trend for wellness is everywhere. On the market today there are devices that monitor hydration, online shopping lists that update depending on your nutritional signs, skincare formulated to meet your daily needs, activity and climate.
From concept to launch, our cross-collaborative approach helped Nu Skin bring a game-changing, smart, personal care device to market: the ageLOC LumiSpa. Working with Sagentia allows Nu Skin to create products that grounded by core scientific understanding and deliver repeatable and consistent results. This has been key for them in their personal care product design and development as it meets the need for a user-centric and personalised experience that the customer loves.
Nu Skin identified an opportunity to extend the reach of its beauty portfolio by developing a dispensing device for their core product range. As this required a move into unfamiliar technology territory, they selected Sagentia as a key partner to help with the product development and launch, focusing on realising the underlying science and technology in a fast and effective way.
Unilever’s Hair Care business wanted to develop a diagnostic device to support brand activation, engage consumers and encourage them to trial Dove products. Sagentia was asked to develop a high-tech diagnostic device for Dove’s Dry/Damaged product line for use in TV commercials and point of sale promotions. The aim of the diagnostic tool was to engage and communicate with consumers with the device needing to be accurate, true to the Dove brand in its design, and simple to use.
