The design is inspired by the camera. As we all know, the camera is the time freezer to keep all the beautiful moments. All women want to keep their beauty, a face mask is a method for them to keep young and beautiful. From this aspect, both the face mask and camera are a kind of time freezer to retain all the beautiful things. This design idea is based on this concept. The designer makes the box a camera shape to emphasize the product property and make the box design more creative.
Another ingenious part of this design is the hollow round window which is similar to the lens of camera. From the round window we can see the face mask inside. In the box, the container for face masks is in shape of an ancient folding fan. When we take out face masks, it feels like taking out films from the camera, which makes the box structure more intriguing.
The roots of the face mask stretch all the way back to ancient times. Nearly 5,000 years ago in ancient India, participants in the holistic lifestyle known as Ayurveda (“life and knowledge”) created face and body masks called ubtan, which historians now deem as one of the very first cosmetic products in the world. The ingredients of ubtan masks changed with the seasons, but the basics always included fresh herbs, plants such as aloe vera, roots such as turmeric, and flowers. Tested and mixed according to skin type, the masks fulfilled the desire to both improve one’s appearance and also contribute to lifelong health. The masks soon became the preparation ritual of choice for women before religious ceremonies like Diwali and the Haldi wedding ceremony. Today, the tenets of the Ayurveda lifestyle have not changed much, and women continue to use the same ingredients in their masks.
With interesting imitative camera structure, designers show the function of the product in a unique way. We believe the diversity and specificity of this product will appeal to more consumers.
