Teenagers are today at the forefront in making their presence felt on the social media and Apps, by making and sharing creative content that focuses on themselves and their personalities.

The US-based skincare brand Clean & Clear has launched a brand marketing campaign encouraging teenage girls to share their individual personalities on multiple media channels
Clean & Clear, one of the world’s big skincare brands, has unveiled a marketing campaign to promote its My Swag bottles of foaming face wash offerings that are targeted at teenage girls in India. The new marketing campaign by Clean & Clear Foaming Face Wash rejoices the varied personalities of teenage girls’, and encourages them to Unbottle Apna Swag in a style that befits their individual personality, according to a press release issued to announce the campaign launch.

The trendy and colourful My Swag bottles give a stylish platform for teen girls to identify with and share their swag moments! The six-week campaign started in February.
Leveraging the new-age media
Unbottle Apna Swag, as part of the marketing strategy, will engage with teenage girls across multiple media like TV, digital, in-game, and in-store advertising. The campaign allows teenage girls to “Unbottle Their Swag” on TikTok, a popular media App for creating and sharing short videos, with their own personality Rap rendition.

Encouraging teens to self-express
Sharing his views on the campaign, DDB Mudra’s Shagun Seda said the prime objective behind the campaign was of finding a powerful kind of self-expression which would click with teens. “We believed Rap best brought alive our idea, injecting the brand with attitude while leveraging its philosophy. The commercials have gone on air at the start of a wave of interest in the category, backed by Bollywood’s latest blockbusters, enhancing the social capital of this campaign,” Seda is quoted in the release.
My Swag bottles are priced at Rs. 65 for 50 ml, Rs. 120 for 100 ml, and Rs. 155 for 150 ml, and they are available on online sales platforms, such as Flipkart, Nykaa and Amazon, as well as in stores.
