I don’t necessarily judge books by their covers. But packages? It’s pretty hard not to! Package design is one of my favorite things to peruse and ogle online, and I recently came across a few concepts I couldn’t help but share with you. No surprise that I’m definitely drawn to a clean, modern look, and am appreciative of a good dose of whimsy here and there! Lucky for us, a few of these items exist in real life and can be purchased and proudly displayed at home — see the details of where you can find each below. Do you have a beauty, food, or other household item that you love because of it’s beautiful packaging? I’m partial to the chic stateliness of this Chanel perfume bottle on my dresser and the sleekness of beauty products from Ilia in my bathroom. Ironically though, even when I see extraordinarily beautiful packaging when I’m out and about, I always wonder if it’s exterior beauty means the product won’t work, or it sucks. Does this happen to anyone else?!
IN THIS POST:
Scottish Fine Soaps ‘Au Lait’ line, £7.96 | TokyoMilk Dark, available on their website and at Sephora | Verso Skincare, available at Barneys, Anthro, and Sephora | Honey: designed by Maks Arbuzov and featured here | Whitebites: Illustration and Design by Cecilia Uhr, and featured here
That honey concept needs to make its way to market. I’d buy it based on packaging alone.
The whitebites packaging is my favorite, oh how I wish it was real!
i love the octopus packaging! xo jillian – cornflake dreams

Both the honey and dog bones that don’t exist — I’m with you, someone needs to make that happen pronto! And I don’t even have a dog!

I interned at a market research consultancy last summer, and my job was to search for cool packaging! Needless to say, it was a fun job!

I’m a sucker for pretty packaging as well and I love these, particularly the Tokyomilk brand. Making a note to myself to check them out the next time I’m in Sephora!
Love the Au Lait branding…so simple and lovely. Totally would buy it just because of the way it looks.
Love this post! Being in the Marketing world, I too find myself engage with a products packaging. Love your chooses.
These are all amazing examples of great packaging! I love the doggy treats!
