    During her two-year association with the brand, she will endorse the Lotus’ proedit and ecostay range of high-performance, daily-usable vegan make-up that is easy on the skin, non-toxic, paraben-free, and cruelty-free.

    With an extensive media plan, the brand will run a digital video campaign, which will play out on the brand’s social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter. In addition, Lotus Make-Up will run the brand film at leading multiplexes across the country to grab eyeballs for maximum visibility.

    In the film, Kapoor is seen using Lotus Make-Up products at a get-together during the day, on a road trip, and at an evening party. The stunning actress, who readily connects with millennials and gen-z, resonates with today’s modern consumers, who are charmed by her beauty, flawless complexion, and personality. Lotus Make-Up plans to leverage her extraordinary popularity to reach out to aspirational consumers across India.

    Commenting on the association, Lotus Herbals chairman and managing director Nitin Passi said, “We are delighted to have Vaani Kapoor endorse the Lotus makeup brand since she resonates with our brand’s commitment to clean and non-toxic beauty. We launched Lotus Make-Up in 2011 and were the first Indian vegan makeup brand to hit the market. Today’s discerning consumers are eco-conscious and on the lookout for makeup products that provide safety, efficacy, and ethical practices. The high-performance product offerings from Lotus Make-Up tick all the boxes and appeal to a wide spectrum of consumers who wish to use only natural products for their makeup regime.”

    Kapoor elaborated, ‘I am happy to be associated with Lotus Make-Up, a brand that is focused on ethical and sustainable beauty. I love their products as they are vegan, cruelty-free, and free of parabens and other toxic ingredients.

  • Shahir Zag is jury president of outdoor lotus at AdFest 2014

    Shahir Zag is jury president of outdoor lotus at AdFest 2014

    BANGKOK: ADFEST is pleased to announce that Shahir Zag, Chief Creative Officer at Y&R MENA in Dubai, is joining next year’s festival as Jury President of the Outdoor Lotus category.

     

    A passionate typographer, designer, poet and creative sage, Zag has been instrumental in turning the creative spotlight onto the Middle East since moving to Dubai from Mumbai in 1997.

     

    In 2012, he was ranked #1 copywriter, #1 art director and #2 Chief Creative Officer in the world by the Big Won Report, an annual global report tracking the award performance of agencies.

     

    “I’m really kicked about the ‘Co-create’ theme at ADFEST this year. Doing great creative is no longer a writer-art director thing. It’s evolved into a wonderfully collaborative process. More and more, we’re seeing the influence of in-house producers and editors, artists, inventors, consumers, and interns doing social at two in the morning. It’s great that ADFEST as a festival is celebrating this. The APAC region is exciting for me because it’s brimming with great human stories and the creatives here are fearless in their telling,” says Zag.

     

    Zag’s writing, design, and art direction have won trophies at ANDY, Art Directors Club, Cannes Lions, Clio, One Show, D&AD, London International, and New York Festivals.

     

    He is also a prolific blogger, whose website shahirzag.com is full of pearls of wisdom such as, ‘The fear of being boring is a great motivator’ exquisitely expressed in perfectly kerned typefaces.

     

    Zag was promoted to the role of Chief Creative Officer, Y&R MENA, in 2010. He moved to Dubai after four years working at agencies in India, including Lowe Enterprise Bombay.

     

    “It’s not often you meet a prodigy like Shahir, who is a major creative force in the Middle East and beyond. It’s an honour to welcome him to ADFEST 2014 as Jury President of the Outdoor Lotus category,” says Jimmy Lam, President of ADFEST.

     

    ADFEST 2014 takes place on 6th – 8th March 2014 at the Royal Cliffs Hotel Group in Pattaya, Thailand.
