BYTE

BYTE Cosmetics

BYTE cosmetics is a conceptual, themed line of makeup I began designing 2021. The brand is comprised of computer and computer related themes.

One special thing about this brand however, isn’t just the fun theme and relative terminology featured in the names of the products, but each product comes with a fact, definition, or origin of that it is named after.

Not only is BYTE a unique take on the ever-changing stylistic world of cosmetic lines, but it becomes educational as well, giving the seemingly irrelevant and unrelated to make-up theme a little bit of relevance and purpose, given the tagline” “Education is Beauty.”

The CMYK eye shadow palettes are four individual palettes each based off C, M, Y, and K color. The C palette has a cyan/blue based range of shades, the M palette has a magenta/pink based range of shades, the Y palette has a yellow/brown based range of shades, and the K Palette has a black/smokey based range of shades.

“Hardwear” Matte Lipstick is the line of 24 shades, all named after different computer hardware. Each package includes a description of what the hardware it is named after is, as well as a simple illustration to go with it.

I created the box and product renders with a combination of gradient meshes in Illustrator for the product casing, Photoshop for the color changes, and Adobe Dimension for the boxes.

“Softwear” Lip Gloss is the line of 12 shades, all named after different computer software terms. Each package includes a description of what the software term it is named after is, as well as a simple illustration to go with it.

“SI-Lite” Highlighter is a line of 6 highlighters, each named after increasing units within the International System of Units. The back gives a definition of SI, and explains the size of each.
