Brand Tone

Nurturing, Authentic, and Aspirational (Accessible Luxury)

Brand Values

• •Self-Care & Well-being: Encouraging customers to take time for themselves and prioritize their mental and physical comfort.
• •Natural & Quality Ingredients: Highlighting the use of nourishing, natural components for skincare benefits.
• •Handcrafted & Australian Made: Emphasizing the care and quality that goes into small-batch, locally made products.
• •Sensory Experience: Focusing on the enjoyable aromas, textures, and visual appeal of their products.
• •Customer Happiness: Valuing positive customer experiences and feedback.

Best Practices

• •Create a Brand Voice Chart: Document your core tone (Nurturing, Authentic, Aspirational), along with adjectives that describe it (e.g., gentle, honest, uplifting, calm, premium-yet-accessible) and adjectives to avoid (e.g., clinical, aggressive, overly technical, cheap).
• •Focus on "You" and Benefits, Not Just Features: Frame copy around how the customer will feel or what they will experience. Instead of "Our scrub contains shea butter," try "Nourish your skin with the creamy richness of our shea butter scrub, leaving you feeling soft and pampered."
• •Use Storytelling (Even in Short Form): Briefly allude to the handcrafted nature, the inspiration behind a product, or the feeling it evokes. This builds connection and reinforces authenticity. For example, "Inspired by serene Australian landscapes..."
• •Incorporate Sensory Language: Appeal to touch, sight, and smell. Use words like "velvety," "radiant," "zesty," "calming aroma," "silky smooth" to make the product experience more tangible and desirable, aligning with the aspirational and nurturing aspects.
• •Maintain Consistency Across All Channels: While the format may change (e.g., TikTok vs. Email), the core nurturing, authentic, and aspirational tone should remain. Adapt the delivery for the platform but ensure the underlying voice and values are always recognizable as Soulful Scrubs. Regularly review content across platforms to ensure alignment.
