"Cosmetics brand Maybelline New York has unveiled a powerful new campaign to mark World Mental Health Day (earlier this month). Empowering young people to take back control of their mental health, the striking film is a poignant reflection of social media's positive and negative effects on Gen Z, spotlighting a safe space to switch off from the online world.
"The campaign film 'Reconnect With You’ is part of Maybelline's Brave Together Initiative, normalizing mental health struggles while spotlighting an accessible online safe space in the form of youth charity, Ditch the Label.
"'Reconnect With You’ is an honest and unpretentious demystification of mental health matters. It's refreshing to see a brand like Maybelline spearheading such a powerful campaign with a balanced and candid approach to mental health – advocating for awareness and meaningful change in equal measure." - Natalie Fear
