Live Body Painting for Beauty & Fragrance Events in Dubai : A Premium, Made-to-Measure Artistic Experience

For the launch of Cacharel’s “Yes I Am” fragrance, our team delivered a refined and highly engaging live body-painting activation, designed specifically for the beauty and fragrance industry. This elegant, fast and visually striking experience is perfectly suited for influencer events, product launches, retail activations, brand anniversaries, or premium beauty evenings across Dubai’s most iconic venues such as Galeries Lafayette, Bloomingdale’s, Sephora or Paris Gallery.

A bespoke artistic activation tailored for beauty, fragrance & luxury brands

During the Yes I Am launch party, surrounded by French influencers, personalities from the fashion world and well-known public figures, our two artists created typographic temporary tattoos directly on guests’ hands, wrists and forearms. Each word echoed the fragrance’s identity—empowerment, femininity, independence—turning the body into a subtle storytelling support.
This approach follows the same artistic sensitivity we bring to fashion-driven activations such as our live customization for Maje or our artistic direction for fashion shootings in Dubai.

In a market like Dubai, where visual identity and sensory storytelling are essential, this kind of activation allows beauty brands to engage their audience instantly. It also generates highly shareable content for social media—a key point for fragrance and beauty launches competing for online visibility.

Why body painting has become a powerful tool for beauty events in Dubai

Dubai is a global hotspot for premium brand experiences, and beauty brands increasingly look for artistic, personal and emotionally driven interactions. Live body painting answers these needs effectively:

• Fast execution: a personalised message created in seconds.
• Intimate guest interaction: a tailor-made moment for each participant.
• Highly photogenic visuals: ideal for stories, posts and influencer content.
• Perfect integration with campaign messaging: the written word becomes a symbol of the launch.

This is why the format works so well for fragrance and beauty launches, press events, masterclasses, pop-ups, and retail experiences—similar to our activations for L’Oréal / Urban Decay in Dubai or our live customization for Sephora.

An artistic signature that strengthens brand storytelling

The typographic style used for this event was soft, feminine, fluid and contemporary—perfectly aligned with Cacharel’s visual universe. This coherence mirrors our artistic approach in other luxury projects such as Zadig & Voltaire Abu Dhabi or the refined sketches created during our experiences for Jimmy Choo.

The result was a flow of images, videos and close-ups of decorated hands circulating throughout the event and online—an elegant way to amplify the message at the heart of the fragrance launch.

A perfect experience for brands seeking impact and memorability

Whether the focus is a new fragrance, a lipstick line, a skincare routine or a beauty capsule collection, live body painting integrates seamlessly into the environment. It also works beautifully in fashion contexts, as seen in our luxury sketch activations for Jimmy Choo Dubai.

In a city as competitive and visually driven as Dubai, offering an artistic, personalised and memorable moment gives brands a clear advantage.

A flexible concept for all types of beauty & fashion events in Dubai

Our team can adapt the experience to match any brand environment:

• Live typographic body painting
• Personalised messages aligned with campaign vocabulary
• Creative direction matching beauty & fragrance aesthetics
• Fast-paced execution for high-traffic events

This activation has proven its efficiency across numerous premium events and remains one of the most impactful ways to bring art into the beauty and fashion worlds.
