Max Factor
Max Factor's new website, designed with Beamly from the brand's art direction, across desktop, tablet and mobile
Project Overview
Max Factor, Coty's Hollywood-born make-up brand, was getting a new website. Beamly, Coty's in-house agency, had set the art direction: black, white and gold, angled crops, editorial typography, portraits of strong women. We joined them to turn it into the site itself.
We designed the homepage, the category page, the product page and the Voices section for three breakpoints, desktop, tablet and mobile, and checked every screen before it went to build.
Challenges & Objectives
An art direction is a look, not a system. It had to hold across a homepage, a product grid, a product page with shade pickers and retailer links, and an editorial section about women, without losing the glossy, magazine feel.
Three breakpoints, one brand. A diagonal hero cut for a wide screen still has to work on a phone. A row of four products becomes two, then one. Nothing could feel cut down on mobile.

From Art Direction to Layout
Black, White and Gold
Black for the navigation, the footer and the editorial blocks. White for the products. Gold for titles, labels and buttons. Condensed uppercase headlines over a serif body. Every page reads like a spread, not a shop.
The Diagonal
The brand's angled crop becomes the hero of every page: the ambassadors on the homepage, a close-up eye on Eyes, the eleven Voices. One cut, repeated, and the site is recognisable from the top of any page.

The Pages
Home and Category
The homepage alternates stories and products: Latest arrivals, Spotlight on artistry, #MaxFactor, Most popular, Max Factor stories. Category pages open on the hero, then a filtered grid of products with ratings and a View more.
The Product Page
Lipfinity Velvet Matte: gallery left; name, copy, shade picker, benefits and ingredients right; retailers with a Buy button under each. Below, How to apply in four steps, laid out as a magazine spread with the lips shots and a video, then You will also love.

Three Breakpoints
Desktop, Tablet, Mobile
Every page designed three times. The diagonal hero stacks on mobile: image above, the black block with title and button below. Four-up grids become two-up, then one card with a carousel. Side filters become tabs. The Voices portraits keep bleeding out of their frames.
Before Build
Every screen checked against the others before handover: spacing, type sizes, image crops, component states, the same module behaving the same way on all three widths. A file with nothing left to interpret.
