Australia’s newest skincare brand, ST.SAJ, made its debut in September 2024. ST.SAJ was established by the multifaceted entrepreneur, TV personality, author, and now skincare innovator, Emmylou MacCarthy.
“I founded ST.SAJ because I really wanted salon quality skin care that was super hydrating, super efficacious, but then also have this inspiration for fashion so when you looked at it you felt inspired and elevated when you picked up the bottle, but you also know it’s working on your skin. ST.SAJ is for anyone looking for a clear skincare line, and what we mean by that is being transparent about the ingredients we use so that you walk away being completed educated about what you are putting on your skin”, founder, Emmylou MacCarthy.
Following ST.SAJ’s official launch, their social media channels swiftly became flooded with enthusiastic customers sharing their unboxing experiences. The standout element in these videos? The vibrant, striking, and sophisticated digitally printed corrugated cardboard packaging housing the coveted, sold-out Supreme Skin Kit, and the beautifully designed lithographic folding cartons featuring vibrant colours and spot gloss varnish that house the ST.SAJ range of products.
ST.SAJ was crafted to revolutionise the Australian skincare landscape through its exclusive salon-quality formulations. The brand’s distinctive appeal is significantly enhanced by its sophisticated product packaging.
