And tooth sensitivity could have various causes, it needs multi-functional toothpaste to relieve the condition, such as enamel regeneration, shrinking gum growth promotion, canker healing, infection treatment, etc.
As a toothpaste dispenser, mixee offers users with tooth sensitivity a medicinal, and personalized experience of tooth brushing.
The inside mechanisms and ergonomics are considered while designing the dispenser.
A variety of foam models were created for proportion and ergonomics tests.

Research & Insight
Travelers start seeking out less commoditized and more meaning experiences. They don’t want to just meet locals, they want to build relationships that last beyond their travels, which makes sharing and interacting with people an increasing value for experience travelers.
In 2017, 85% of the pictures were taken from smartphones. The sophistication and convenience of smartphone cameras allows everyday users to take high-quality picture easily, for most consumers, it makes no sense to spend extra money on a separate device just to take photos.

Yet as we form the habit of taking thousands of photos everyday, our smartphone becomes a clutter space with lousy and repetitive pictures that we seldom revisit.
When it comes to digital, how can we create an experience and interaction as beautiful and expressive as a journal, an album or a postcard?
