About Minsheng Lesuke Packaging
Minsheng Lesuke is a packaging design for a smoking cessation medicine. The design uses a progressive smiling face symbol and a positive colour system to offer encouragement instead of warnings. An orange starter pack marks the beginning of the quitting period, while a green maintenance pack suggests growth and balance. Daily dose cells are divided by precise hot press tear off lines, so one cell is opened each day and progress stays visible. The body is made of recyclable paper based composite film, finished with matte paper and a soft touch film.

- Production Technology
- The packaging body adopts a recyclable paper based composite film, which is environmentally friendly and durable. The surface combines matte paper with a soft touch film, offering a skin friendly feel that conveys medical grade professionalism and warm humanistic care. The connection between daily dose units applies high precision plus or minus 0.3 mm hot press tear off line technology to ensure easy and smooth separation.
- Design Challenge
- Balancing the professional rigor with a friendly experience is a challenge. This project adopts medical grade affinity, using gentle rounded corners and combining matte paper with soft touch film to give the packaging professional texture and skin friendly touch. The visual symbol the arc of the progressive smiling face is optimised through multiple rounds of testing, coordinating encouragement and trustworthiness, avoiding over cartoonisation that could affect the professional image.
- Research
- Based on psychological and behavioural analysis of multiple quit failure cases, the design team found that users generally reject warning or didactic packaging and urgently need positive incentives and visual progress feedback. Therefore, the design strategy shifts from emphasizing warnings to conveying encouragement and strengthening positive incentives, and enhances user trust and lasting companionship through healing visual symbols, emotional colour systems and interactive rituals.
- Inspiration
- The design translates the positive mindset into a visual experience. The iconic progressive smiling face conveys a professional yet warm encouragement. The colour system is based on emotional healing research. The starter pack s vibrant orange symbolises action and hope of the start of quitting. The maintenance pack s calm green implies growth and balance, echoing persistence. The gradual shift from orange to green is not only a visual transition but also a psychological transformation metaphor.
- Project Duration
- The packaging was designed in January 2025 in Hangzhou. The product was officially launched in November 2025 in China.
- Operation Flow
- Users tear the package following the one day one cell daily dose design to take the medicine. Each tear of an independent unit completes a mini ritual, providing immediate positive feedback. The product use process is divided into two stages, starter period orange and maintenance period green, with the packaging colour switch intuitively presenting progress, elevating the act of taking medicine into an easy, rewarding daily self management ritual.
