Challenge: Many women find it difficult to find foundations and other beauty products that match a wide range of skin tones. In addition to offering a slim range of skin tones, many women struggle to find the perfect match for their skin tone and may end up shelling out hundreds of dollars using the trial-and-error method of tone matching.

Also, skincare and beauty products can be expensive, creating a barrier to access for higher-quality products.
Solution: Fenty Beauty helps women overcome these challenges by offering a wide range of skin tones that account for unique undertones and overtones.

Challenge: Women artists are underrepresented in the Indian Music Industry. So, on International Women’s Day, Spotify wanted to highlight this. They wanted to design a product-led initiative on International Women’s Day and raise awareness about the contribution of women to the music industry. This International Women’s Day, Spotify highlighted the contribution of women to the music industry by partnering with Sony Music -- and put out a playlist that had around 18 popular songs from across languages, but without female vocals. This initiative sparked conversations across the industry and saw engagement across artist community, consumers and marketing fraternity across social media. In addition to that, they leveraged the Spotify feature of an enhanced playlist. They added short video byte from various artists, who weighed in with their point of view on the unheard playlist, re-emphasising the importance of women voices in the music industry. Execution: When listeners tuned in, they were perplexed with what they heard - a playlist where the female vocals were muted from popular duet songs across Hindi and other regional languages
As the listeners were left wondering what they had just heard and the message was revealed by top Indian women music artists like Asees Kaur, Shweta Mohan, Sanah Moidutty in the form of a video where the artists themselves spoke to the listeners, explaining that not only does a song sound strange without the woman’s voice, but the music industry itself is incomplete without women voices. They urged listeners to hear women artists, share their songs, support them and make them ‘heard’.
The Unheard playlist campaign by Spotify was also shared on social media.
