11. L’Oreal Natural Match TV (2008) - Insights
Much more so than previous spots, 2008 executions emphasizes the benefit of “high gloss color”
while continuing to speak to traditional “natural” benefits like “no ammonia” and “helps block
damage”, both of which are supered in the spots.
The spots calls out “100% Natural Aloe” and “100% Natural Pomegranate” as RTBs. The addition of
pomegranate is new news as they were most recently communicating aloe and green tea as
ingredients. They are also calling out that the pomegranate ingredient is “anti-oxidant” rich.
Insights / Implications
The first :30 execution went directly against one of the key benefits of Madonna – high gloss color.
In an attempt to cause even further consumer confusion, they have also usurped Madonna
language by directly lifting the “haircolor that changes everything” copy. Additionally, the “anti-
oxidant” message follows the lead of Natural Instincts, which is also calling it out as a RTB the “less
damaging” benefit.

30. Garnier Nutrisse TV (2005 - 2008) Insights
The look, tone and feel of advertising remains consistent.
In all TV executions, Nutrisse continues to link nourishment to a color benefit and
stays true to the brand’s core benefit message of “nourished hair, better color.
Besides the traditional message of “nourished hair means better color”, executions
from 2006 - 2008 also tout “rich, more radiant color root-to-tip” and 100% gray
coverage as additional benefits.
RTBs remains the same for all executions from 2005 - present.
In 2008, both TV and Print prominently highlight the grape seed component
(ampoule) to further drive the nourishing benefit.
In 2009, we see only FSI drops for Print and a continuation of 2008 “The Secret to
Better Hair Color” :30/:15 TV executions.

Notes de l'éditeur
Natural Match, as the new permanent, ammonia-free formula is called, uses Color-Calibrated technology to deliver dimensional, glossy and reflective tones, a challenge in the at-home hair color category. While Natural Match aims to provide women with a true match to their natural color, perhaps most importantly it aims to demystify the hair color selection process.
Questions:
Do we need to include Last run, Total No. of Airings and Cost?
Main Benefit: Gentle color that won’t look artificial and natural color that compliments your skin tone.
Gentle color that wont look artificial; glossy, polished color that looks natural and compliments your skin tone
Questions:
Do we need to include Last run, Total No. of Airings and Cost?
Our understanding is that the trademark process for “haircolor that changes everything” is in progress but our hope is that we’re at a stage where we may be legally justified in defending the use of the line. Does the fact that the line has been used in market for several weeks (it’s on the website) help us make an argument?
