hum by Colgate and Headspace Team Up to Help People Stress Less and Smile More

Posted on Thursday, December 10, 2020

Today, hum by Colgate announced its partnership with leading meditation and mindfulness app, Headspace, to help consumers stress less and smile more by creating healthier daily habits. The partnership encourages consumers to treat the existing routines in their day - whether it's going for a walk outside or brushing their teeth - as a chance to observe and reflect on their thoughts.

To bring that to life, Headspace will host "Mindful Moments" programming in the hum by Colgate app. The weekly content is designed to help facilitate these new routines, whether that's getting into the rhythm of brushing better or finding time to be kind to one's mind.

As part of the partnership, hum will also provide free trials to Headspace Plus for its users. Recently, people have turned to apps as a way to reduce stress and stay connected, and to help them keep on top of their health and wellness. With Headspace Plus, users will now have access to additional tools to build mindful routines and better manage their stress.

Launched in August, hum by Colgate was developed to democratize the connected brush offering and allow more people to achieve a clean and healthy smile. hum makes brushing a little more fun by rewarding consumers for staying on top of their brushing routine. Consumers can earn Smile Points every time they brush or complete an activity on the hum by Colgate app that can be used to purchase any product in the hum in-app store, or redeem offerings from wellness partners, like Headspace.

The product's Smile Points and rewards are meant to keep users engaged and motivated to brush with connected technology, so they continue to benefit from the app's personalized guidance to brush their best. Users can unlock a 60-day free Headspace trial once they earn 200 Smile Points in the hum by Colgate app, which they can redeem within 30 days on the website.

"Headspace is a perfect partner for hum by Colgate as both of our brands share the mission to reinforce healthy habits, while improving overall health and bringing more smiles to the world," says Bill Van de Graaf, Vice President of Marketing North America, Colgate-Palmolive. "Uniting our brands offers a powerful opportunity for hum to continue to create unique experiences that are relevant for our millennial consumers' lifestyle and to reinforce the tie between oral health and overall wellness."

"Headspace's mission is to improve the health and happiness of the world, and to reach the world it is incredibly important that we meet people where they are," said Lindsay Shaffer, Senior Director of Partnerships at Headspace. "That is why it's so exciting to partner with a brand like hum, which shares our commitment to supporting the daily routines, that in just a few minutes a day, help to improve health and happiness.
