— The challenge

Where it started.

Premium skincare shoppers expect imagery, copy, and motion to feel considered. The team needed faster PDPs and a smoother review-led purchase journey across global markets.

— The approach

How we worked.

Refactored product detail components, tuned image strategy, and implemented review and recommendation patterns inside the existing React stack. Audited the experience for accessibility along the way.

Quicker page renders, an editorialised PDP feel, and an experience that holds up against the standard Kiehl's customers expect from the brand.
