Cover Story

From Ancient Empire to Eternal City

Rome is often referred to as the “Eternal City,” and for good reason. With over 2,700 years of history, it stands as a living testament to human ingenuity, endurance, and the passage of time. The blend of ancient ruins, Renaissance art, and bustling modern life creates a city like no other—a place where every corner tells a story. But beyond the ruins and the relics, Rome offers a unique experience that seamlessly blends history with the vibrant pulse of a contemporary metropolis.

Did you know that by the early fourth century, the Romans had constructed a road network spanning an impressive 53,000 miles? Each Roman mile was about 4,800 feet and marked by a milestone, a simple innovation that gave rise to the age-old saying, “All roads lead to Rome.” These roads not only connected a sprawling empire but also laid the foundation for modern infrastructure as we know it today. They carried legions, traders, and ideas, weaving together the cultural and political heart of an empire that still captivates our imaginations.

Conclusion:

Ending the Eternal Story of Rome

Old and new blend can be seen combined together with full evidence in its cultural ambience, showing everything from cutting-edge fashion boutiques to modern art galleries. The metro, though not as large as those of other European capitals, unites ancient with modern districts, bringing comfort to residents and visitors who cope with the stretched plan of the city. As far as it is concerned, it's not a city; it's an experience. Whether tracing emperors' steps, indulging in its culinary delights, or simply enjoying the relaxed pace of life, it invites people to open up to its charm and history. Indeed, every road leads to discovery in the Eternal City.

From Simple Moisturizer to Skincare Superstar

Did you know that Olay, now a skincare brand sold in over 80 countries, began its journey as a simple moisturizer, “Oil of Olay,” in 1952? With a commitment to creating high-quality skincare products, today it manufactures moisturizers, cleansers, anti-aging products, sunscreens, toners, and exfoliators to meet the customer’s needs. The story of the brand’s success exemplies how a passion for innovation and being inclusive for years can thrive for decades and remain relevant in the fastchanging world.

In this article, you’ll learn about the brand's history, its market strategies, the challenges it faced to turn into a skincare brand, and some of its interesting facts.

Brand History

Before jumping to market strategies, interesting facts, and the challenges faced by the brand, you should know about its history. Below is a description of the multiple stages of the company throughout the years.

• 1952s: Olay was founded by Graham Wulff in South Africa as “Oil of Olay,” a simple moisturizer aimed at women, known for its luxurious feel.

• 1960s: The brand gained popularity in the U.S., becoming recognized for its effective hydration and distinctive pink packaging.

• 1985s: It was rebranded, dropping “Oil of” and expanding its product range beyond moisturizers.

• 1990s: The introduction of Total Effects and the brand Regenerist marked the brand's focus on multiple skincare benets and antiaging solutions.

• 2000s: It was invested in research, incorporating advanced ingredients like peptides and niacinamide to enhance its formulations.

• 2010s: It expanded globally to over 80 countries and emphasized inclusivity and sustainability in its products.

• 2020s: The brand is committed to ecofriendly practices and continues to innovate with new products that cater to modern skincare needs.

Story of Brand’s Logo

The brand logo has changed a lot since it started in 1952. The original logo said “Oil of Olay” in a classic font, showing luxury and quality. In 1985, the brand changed its name to just “Olay” and updated the logo with a more modern look to represent its wider range of products. Over time, the logo has often used bold, uppercase letters in black and white, giving it a clean and stylish appearance. The simple design reects the brand’s focus on quality and effectiveness. Recent updates keep the logo fresh while maintaining its reputation as a trusted skincare brand. Overall, the logo's changes show the brand's journey from one product to a full line of skincare solutions.
