From a Product List to a Premium Brand Experience.

Designing the complete B2B product catalog for Soleo, a professional tanning cosmetics brand.

My task was to transform a standard B2B product list into a high-end, tangible brand experience that feels as good as the products themselves.

Product catalogs often end up as boring, technical spreadsheets. The challenge for Soleo was to create a B2B catalog that felt like a premium, B2C lifestyle magazine. It needed to inspire and educate salon owners, not just list products.

A "Magazine" Feel with a Logical Flow.

I designed the catalog as a strategic brand journey for the salon owner:

The "Why" (The Hook): We don't start with products. We start with beautiful, aspirational lifestyle photos and a clear brand story ("Why Soleo?", "I choose Soleo").

A Premium, Tangible Sales Tool.

The final result is a clean, elegant, and beautifully structured catalog that functions as both a brand-building piece and a hard-working sales tool. The clean typography, premium photography, and logical flow work together to elevate the Soleo brand and empower its B2B partners.
