In this campaign, Himalaya highlights the role of mothers as the original OG influencers in their daughters' lives, particularly when it comes to skincare and acne remedies.

At the heart of the campaign lies the star product, Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash is an iconic and trusted name in the skincare category. Since its inception, Himalaya has continuously strived to embrace natural ingredients and sustainable practices, and Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash has played a pivotal role in this brand journey. Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash is backed by rigorous scientific research and testing. The face wash is a clinically proven solution enhanced with 100% naturally derived Neem, sourced using sustainable growing methods that protect the environment and nurture communities.

Naveen Raman, Branch Head , 82.5 Communications, South, said “Keeping up with times and evolving is a must for a successful brand.

We drew inspiration from the powerful influence moms have on their daughters. This campaign creates a strong connection between Gen Alpha girls and their moms. We celebrate the OG influencers – the moms – and their OG advice. We’ve aimed to empower the next gen of young girls to embrace not just their skin care but also their care for the planet - with Himalaya Purifying Neem Facewash.” 

Sangeetha Sampath and Ravikumar Cherussola, Executive Creative Directors, 82.5 Communications, South, aimed to forge an emotional connection with moms and daughters. “Our new campaign celebrates the OG influencer in every Gen Alpha girl’s life – her Mom! While the teen girl may have a lot of influencers talking to her through different mediums, her Mom remains her OG influencer. After all, she knows her the best. Their journey together, out in Nature, aligns with the journey that the girl takes with Himalaya Purifying Neem Facewash, a brand that’s skin-friendly and planet-friendly.”
