Hello Dotstash. Goodbye Period Panic.
We joined forces with Dotstash to redefine how students access everyday wellness. Blending brand strategy, creative production, and digital innovation, Stranded helped bring Organic Cotton Pads and Smart Vending Machines to campuses nationwide. Our work spanned brand identity, Shopify website design and development, photography, film, and 3D product renderings, creating a connected brand experience designed to build confidence and normalize conversations around menstrual health.
Today, Stranded continues to lead Dotstash’s marketing strategy and optimization, helping the brand expand its reach, strengthen its digital presence, and bring a more thoughtful approach to student wellness.
Storytelling with Impact
Stranded, in collaboration with filmmaker Brock Vanheel, produced a video campaign aimed at destigmatizing menstruation and promoting menstrual equity. The series follows individuals at different life stages—from high school to college—as they share their experiences and highlight Dotstash’s initiative to make organic, biodegradable menstrual products accessible through Smart Health & Wellness Vending Machines for Schools in public spaces. Filmed on school campuses and narrated by students, the videos use authentic storytelling to underscore the importance of supporting menstruators and fostering open conversations around menstrual health.
Visualizing the Dotstash Experience
We created high-fidelity 3D product renderings and visualizations to bring the Dotstash experience to life. From smart health and wellness vending machines to organic cotton pads and recyclable packaging, each asset was modeled and rendered to showcase the product’s form, user interface, materials, textures, and campus branding while reinforcing Dotstash’s commitment to sustainability, accessibility, and thoughtful design.
The period pad icon featured on the packaging was designed by Lillian Nguyen, helping create a cohesive visual system across the product experience. The resulting 3D product visualization library was developed for web, digital, print, sales, and marketing campaigns, giving administrators and institutional buyers a clear, polished view of exactly what Dotstash delivers.
Building Trust from the First Scroll
We designed and developed the Dotstash website to turn a complex health and wellness offering into a clear, approachable digital experience. Our UX/UI design brought the brand to life through intuitive navigation, purposeful whitespace, warm brand colors, and a strong content hierarchy that helps facilities managers and institutional buyers quickly understand the products, program, and value behind Dotstash.
From responsive layouts and interactive UI components to calls to action and mobile optimization, every element was designed to move visitors naturally from awareness to action. Anchored by “Hello Dotstash. Goodbye Period Panic,” the website combines brand storytelling with thoughtful web design and development to build trust and redefine how menstrual wellness is presented online.
From Product Specs to Human Impact
We designed Dotstash’s Organic Cotton Pads product page to turn a utilitarian product into a tactile, story-driven digital experience. Inspired by leading consumer brands, the e-commerce UX/UI design combines clean scroll flow, close-up product photography, lifestyle imagery, and intuitive content hierarchy to communicate quality while keeping the experience approachable and human.
Product specifications, dimensions, shipping details, and dispenser compatibility are surfaced exactly where institutional buyers need them, while the visual storytelling keeps the experience engaging for students and everyday users. The result is a product page design that balances brand storytelling with practical information, making it easier to understand the product, build confidence, and take action.
