M Lash Boutique
Strategic Brand Identity
THE PROJECT
M Lash Boutique is a home lash salon on Sydney's Northern Beaches, founded by Emma, a mother building a business around real family life. The salon's first offering is lash extensions, with more services to follow, all in a warm, private setting where mothers are welcome to bring their children and appointments flex to fit the day.
As a brand-new launch, M Lash Boutique needed an identity that captured a genuinely different offer: flexible, personal and welcoming, without slipping into the generic. Else Studio built the brand from the ground up, shaping its positioning and building a complete logo suite, a warm neutral palette, a considered type system and full brand guidelines.
VISUAL DIRECTION
The identity is built on warmth, the same warmth Emma wants clients to feel the moment they walk in. M Lash Boutique commits to a palette of espresso, caramel, golden hour and latte. Soft cream, anchored by a rich brown, gives the brand its backbone and keeps it reading as premium rather than plain.
Typography pairs Petrona, a warm serif, with Nunito Sans, a clean and friendly sans, quietly steering the brand toward something more considered than the script-led look so common in the category. The customised M mirrors the natural arc of lash work, while a wavy pattern widens from wispy to full volume, echoing the range of lash sets and the curve of the eye.
