Fake Bake
Fake Bake is a breakthrough in sunless self-tanning that’s guaranteed to satisfy even the palest skin tones. Originating in America, the range consists of professional and retail tanning products. In the US, Britney Spears and Madonna have been linked to the brand and the product has received extensive press coverage in international and local markets. Fake Bake hired Polkadot PR to expose the range to Australian beauty buffs and to highlight its unique selling points so that it stands out in what is a rather saturated environment.

How we joined the dots . . .

Our PR campaign aimed to:

  • Expose Fake Bake to its target market (teens, tweens, young adults, women living in warmer climates, women who care about their appearance).
  • Promote in-salon spray tanning as well as take-home retail range.
  • Encourage consumers to buy Fake Bake products.
  • Encourage salons and day spas to implement products under the Fake Bake brand.
  • Introduce consumers to the new products offered by Fake Bake.
  • Increase the professional profile of beauty therapists who use the Fake Bake products.
  • Align Fake Bake with relevant events and promotions.
