Tampon test

Client: August X VMLY&R

One missed period can become a liability.

People who seek reproductive care can be prosecuted using data like search history, location, period tracking apps, and more. So August and VMLY&R created The Tampon Test: a pregnancy test hidden in a box of tampons. In partnership with @getstix and @plancpills, to start a conversation to stop missed period data tracking.

For this campaign, I created all illustrated assets for the packaging as well as leaflets with instructional and a sticker sheet that was also later animated for Instagram stickers
