Job Description

Industrial Color is seeking a full-time multidisciplinary designer with strong hands-on experience in beauty, skincare, or cosmetics to partner with our client, a smaller but established beauty brand. This role will work side-by-side with the brand's creative team and be heavily focused on packaging and tactile, real-world design, not 3D exploration or overly polished digital work. We’re looking for someone with a refined, modern aesthetic and a clear point of view who can bring ideas from concept through execution across packaging, print, social, digital, and content creation.

What we’re looking for

A designer with a distinct, modern aesthetic who leans into real, authentic visual design and understands how to create packaging and skincare experiences grounded in materials, textures, and brand identity. Your portfolio should show true brand work, not speculative or exploratory case studies, and should demonstrate a sense of edge, taste, and intentionality.

Requirements

Responsibilities

• Concept, design, and develop packaging and component ideas for skincare and beauty, taking them from sketches and materials through production-ready artwork.
• Design creative assets across print, packaging, social, digital, shooting, and light editing with a focus on real product, texture, and form.
• Create original concepts rooted in brand DNA and translate them across multiple touchpoints.
• Collaborate with Product Development, Marketing, and cross-functional teams to ensure designs are executable and aligned with brand needs.
• Prepare and review component specifications, materials, finishes, production files, and digital assets.
• Work closely with vendors and production partners to refine designs and ensure quality and feasibility.
• Partner with graphic designers and content creators to deliver cohesive visual presentations across packaging, social, and digital.
• Maintain brand consistency while introducing fresh, modern, and trend-relevant ideas.
• Present concepts clearly to the Head of Marketing and cross-functional partners.
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.

What you need to bring

• A portfolio that demonstrates strong packaging and skincare work, showcasing real materials, forms, textures, and product-focused design.
• A recognizable personal style with an edge — not generic, not templated, and not overly digital or 3D-driven.
• Clear examples of actual brand partnerships and executed work within beauty, skincare, or adjacent categories.
• Ability to move hands-on between packaging, print, social, digital, and content creation.
• Strong conceptual thinking, clean execution, and comfort working across multiple disciplines.

Benefits

The anticipated salary range for this role is $90,000 - $100,000 annually. Ranges are based on various factors including the labor market, job type, internal equity, and budget. Exact offers are calibrated by work location, individual candidate experience, and skills relative to the defined job requirements.

This is a hybrid role requiring flexibility to work in-office and remotely. Evening or weekend work may occasionally be required during major projects.

We offer a competitive benefits package including major medical, dental and vision insurance, FSA, HSA, and employee discounts.
