History of the Mark While the overall style of the Max Factor logo has been pretty much the same over a considerable period of time, you can notice a couple of comparatively subtle updates. Max Factor was established in 1909 under the name of Max Factor & Company. Today, it is part of Coty, Inc. In the current version, the stylized “X” follows the name of the brand, while in the previous it stood right in the middle of the wordmark. It replaced the “X” in the word “Max.” The glyphs have been updated, too. The most notable alteration can be seen in the “F” – the playful middle element of the previous design has been replaced by a regular horizontal bar. The list of less noticeable alterations includes the elongated ends of the “C,” for instance.

Rebranding Objective In the past Max factor began creating makeup and tools for it in the film industry. Max Factor’s goal was to achieve and create products that would enhance women’s features and prepare them for the stage they were performing on. Max Factor believed any woman could be glamorous when given the right tools. OBJECTIVE The rebranding objective is to take the soul of these previous thoughts and visualize it from an entrepreneurial and career stand point. Max Factor’s goal is now to cater to women through products and services that will benefit them in their career and personal goals. We now prepare women intellectually while manifesting not just their beauty but their confidence, ambition and ability to adapt to different stages.

Logo Clear Space Clear space refers to specific amount of space that a logo must have on all sides, no matter where it is used. It is to ensure that a logo maximizes visibility and impact. Here we use value “x” to define the clear space around the logo. The value of X is determined by the determined intersection. Then applied to the sides to determine the width of the clear space on the sides. Then applied to the top and bottom margins to determine the height of the clear space needed around the logo.
