testimonial
In a world where smartphone screens illuminate our lives, we wanted to seize the mobile canvas to promote our Bright Complete Serum range. With mCanvas, we created an immersive experience, woven around the 'sun-like slice of lemon' - an integral part of our key visual, while highlighting the primary ingredient: Vitamin C. The draw in the air action, detected with gyroscope & accelerometer sensors, amplified high recall for our serum and kept users engaged for 10 seconds on average. The interactive ad effectively drove our message of breathing new life into one's skin to get radiant, healthy, and glowing complexion with Garnier serums.

Garnier's mission was simple: create an engaging mobile ad that promotes the new Bright Complete Serum range, empowering users to embrace their luminosity. The creative revolved around the serum and how to solve the problems of dull and damaged skin, by replacing it with healthy radiance by Garnier. Partnering with mCanvas, known for blending creativity & technology, we created an immersive experience that intrigued users to draw a circle in the air by leveraging motion sensors. The interactive mobile ad garnered 24.5 times higher CTR than industry benchmarks, nailing the client brief and providing a more than enriching experience for our users.
