The brand

Ouate is a children's skincare brand created by Astrid, a mother of four, to teach kids to take care of their skin from age 4.

Serious formulas, developed with dermatologists and pediatricians, and products that are fun and easy to use alone: the brand works with occupational therapists so every child can use them independently. Around twenty products, for a simple routine: “I cleanse, I moisturize.”

“Everyone knows you need to protect children's skin from the sun. Far fewer know you also need to cleanse and moisturize it.”

Agathe, marketing manager

Guiding parents to the right routine.

01

Parents who don't know where to start

Cleanse, moisturize, protect: faced with around twenty products, it's hard to know which ones to choose for your child.

02

Every age has its own habits

A 4-year-old doesn't have the strength to press a pump; at 9, skin and needs change. The routine has to keep up.

03

Skin that needs care

Dry, atopic or reactive skin, fragrance allergies: for each product, the brand had defined what to rule out or put forward.

The solution

A diagnostic designed for every child in the family.

The parent says how many children they want help with, then the diagnostic adapts to each one: age, skin type, reactions, current routine. It also asks what matters to them (enjoyment, effectiveness, independence, ingredients, scientific proof) and the routine level they want, from minimalist to complete.

Ages 4 to 6
Ages 7 to 8
Ages 9 and up

Reassuring experts

Clinical results, parent reviews, approval by skin and child experts: the results page highlights the proof that matters to each parent.

One routine per child

Each child has their own section in the results, with products suited to their age and motor skills.

Automatic exclusions

Reactive skin or fragrance allergy: unsuitable products are ruled out, following the rules set by the brand.

Just what's needed

A parent who wants a simple routine gets a simple routine: the essentials, without a list of 25 products.

A welcome from Louise

The brand's Product Development Manager welcomes every parent at the start of the journey.

The results

More sales, and products rediscovered.

Parents who go through the diagnostic convert nearly three times more than other store visitors, and their average order value is 16% higher, even though they're offered a 15% discount. Altogether, the diagnostic brings in 13% more revenue.

It also strengthens the customer relationship: over 90% of parents leave their email, even though it's optional, and over 30% their phone number.

The diagnostic also revealed that many parents had children with real skin issues. Ouate now puts its gummies forward more, and they now account for a significant share of revenue in its ages 9+ range.

“It went far beyond what we imagined. From one diagnostic to the next, the questions change: the precision is impressive.”

Beyond sales

Personas that are reshaping all of its marketing.

Personas brought to life

Each persona has a first name, a portrait and its own revenue: Nadia, the busy mom who wants practical solutions; Sophie, the watchful mom with no set routine; or Estelle, who wants fun rather than a routine.

Tailored communication

Product pages, ads, emails, offers: the brand tailors its messages to each persona's real objections, and focuses its efforts on those still on the fence.

Aski, every day

Ask-it's AI assistant helps the team build its editorial calendar, newsletters, hooks, and even the founder's video scripts, written for each persona.

“The dashboard is Disneyland for anyone in e‑commerce.”
