After roughly a month of development on the new SkinBeautiful website project (winners of the "Our Site Sucks" contest), we are pleased as pie to announce it's official launch! You can view the live website right here. The site is built and content managed with ExpressionEngine. Take a look around and post a comment to let us know what you think! Also for those who may have missed the earlier post, you can view the old website here.

While their site wasn't the worst of the entries, we felt it had the greatest promise for improvement given the nature of their business.

We met with the enthusiastic team at Skin Beautiful in Belleville last week to kick-off the project and after a very candid discussion about their current website, the conversation landed on their overall current brand positioning and as a result, we will rebranding their company to coincide with their new web launch.
