The new Lux, with the sunscreen formula, is targeted towards a different market segment as compared previously to previous Lux. Lux is the first brand to bring the sunscreen concept in soap industry. Lux plans to cater to all these customers. "Beauty begins with Lux. "The strategy that is used by lever brother for their lux sunscreen is on specific "product Benefits strategy" as the lux sunscreen promotes "Sun Protection" benefit as well as "beauty" .Lux sunscreen revolves around the slogan that is:Lux Sunscreen is not considered as a new product. It is a re launch of the existing product Lux. This feature of the soap makes it different from the existing Lux soaps. Lux Sunscreen is being termed as a "Re launch of Lux Beauty Soap with a variant" by Lever brothers. Lux already has a strong position in the soap market. Lux's sunscreen target market is upper and upper-middle class For sunscreen Lux is using skimming pricing strategy. Lux sunscreen was the re launch of a variant, hence it should be publicized differently than all other Lux beauty soaps

    One hundred and forty years ago, Arinobu Fukuhara built on his experience working as chief pharmacist at a navy hospital to establish Shiseido, Japan’s first Western-style pharmacy in the Ginza district of Tokyo. Concerned about the inferior medications then available to the public, he aspired to separate medical care and pharmaceutical dispensing in Japan. Shiseido’s first president, Shinzo Fukuhara, led Shiseido into the cosmetics business in 1897. The only cosmetics sold in Japan at that time, powder and lipstick, were simply for altering appearance. Dissatisfied with the status quo, Shiseido brought a fresh perspective to cosmetics (n.d.). They formulated their products like pharmaceuticals because they strongly believed that the true value of cosmetics was in achieving healthy, beautiful skin. Based on this belief, Shiseido has developed with an unwavering philosophical commitment to high quality, innovation and authentic value. Millions of people have come to know and trust the Shiseido name as a result. The origin of the company name “Shiseido” is a passage from the Chinese classic, I Ching (The Book of Changes): “praise the virtues of the great Earth, which nurtures new life and brings forth new values.” Shiseido puts the intent of this passage into practice by discovering and creating new value. This is our founding spirit, and it continues unbroken as Our Mission, Shiseido’s raison d’être (Annual report 2012).…
