Description:
LUX is a global beauty brand with its purpose is to empower women to rise above everyday sexism and express their beauty unapologetically. LUX has been fulfilling this mission in China for the last 100 years with a series of campaigns that help women smash sexist labels. One of those labels in China is given at birth.

There is an unconscious bias towards men being strong and powerful and women being soft and submissive, therefore naming their children based on gender stereotypes. So men have names like Guó Wěi (Great Nation) and Zhì Háo (Grand Purpose) whilst women have names like W?i(Tiny) and Yà Nán (Second to man – Inferior to men).

Brief: Spotlight how women are stuck with sexist names that do not represent them. Objective: By drawing awareness on the issue, LUX empower women to embrace names that have positive connotations and have confidence in their identity.
