Summary

We are launching a premium DTC supplement brand for high-functioning adults. We are looking for a designer with real supplement label and packaging design experience to design the first production label for our launch product, Daily Clarity. This is not a generic graphic design project. We want someone who understands how to create a label that feels premium and modern, while also working within real supplement manufacturing and print constraints. About the brand: This brand lives in the world of clean DTC, quiet tech longevity, and modern performance wellness. The brand should feel: * premium * modern * restrained * intelligent * trustworthy * design-led It should not feel: * clinical * bodybuilding / gym supplement * loud Amazon nootropic * cheap private label * “old person vitamin” Think more in the territory of: * Hims * Ritual * AG1 * modern longevity / wellness brands with taste Product: Product: Daily Clarity Format: Capsules Bottle Count: 60 capsules Serving: 2 capsules daily Supply: 30-day supply Daily Clarity is a stimulant-free cognitive support product designed to support: * focus * attention * mental clarity * reduced mental fatigue Key ingredients include: * Citicoline * L-Theanine * Rhodiola rosea extract * affron saffron extract Important manufacturing context We are already working with a manufacturer and have real production constraints in place. Current production context: * V1 will use a standard black bottle * manufacturer bottle is a 200 cc PET bottle * manufacturer has already provided the label dieline / template * current label direction is a metallic label with matte finish * we need a label that works beautifully on a black bottle and is fully production-ready This means we do not just need a nice concept. We need a designer who can create something premium that also works in real-world manufacturing. Scope of work: We need help with the first production label for Daily Clarity. 1. Front-label concepts Create 2 to 3 front-label design directions for the bottle. The directions should feel: * premium * modern * minimal * credible * design-forward * strong in product photography and e-commerce 2. Refine selected concept into full label system Take the chosen direction and build it into a full production label that can accommodate: * front branding * product name * descriptor * 60 capsules / 30-day supply * Supplement Facts * ingredients / other ingredients * suggested use * warnings * distributor info * lot / expiration handling * all other required compliance content 3. Build to actual dieline Use the manufacturer’s exact label template for the 200 cc PET bottle and prepare a real print-ready file. 4. Bottle mockups Provide polished bottle mockups on the selected black bottle so we can evaluate the design before approving production. Brand system context: We already have a designer working on the logo. You do not need to redesign the logo from scratch, but the label should work cohesively with the brand system and feel like part of one premium visual language. What we are looking for: Please apply only if you have strong experience with: * supplement labels * packaging design * bottle labels * print production * dielines * compliance-heavy layouts Bonus if you have worked on: * wellness brands * skincare * food/beverage packaging * premium DTC products Deliverables: * 2 to 3 initial front-label concepts * refined selected direction * full flat label layout * bottle mockups * production-ready print files built to manufacturer dieline * source files File deliverables: Please provide: * AI * PDF * print-ready production files * high-res PNG/JPG mockups To apply Please send: 1. portfolio examples of actual packaging / bottle label work 2. any supplement / wellness / skincare label examples 3. confirmation that you are comfortable designing from a manufacturer dieline We are looking for someone with both taste and technical packaging ability, not just a general graphic designer.
