People who struggle primarily with acne (aka Gen Z) are Curology’s biggest customer base, but our medical expertise is what differentiates us from the crowd. Our challenge was to walk that line aesthetically, using visuals that both connected with a younger audience and positioned our brand with authority. We used “warm science” as our north star, grounding our messaging in our dermatologist’s knowledge but lending it a more youthful edge in our photography, graphic elements, and bold pops of color in our brand purple.

Our signature squeeze is the connecting thread throughout our visual system. Inspired by how we interact with our products, the squeeze acts as a primary graphic element to punch up our compositions and as a secondary accent in places like our custom typeface, Skintype. Combined with our core purple color, the result is an ownable brand aesthetic unique to Curology.
