As consumers increasingly associate the sensory qualities of food — from comfort to indulgent surprise — with personal well-being and pleasure, the beauty industry is turning to food-inspired aesthetics as a powerful source of inspiration.
Packaging designed to stir emotion
Albéa Cosmetics & Fragrance has embraced this trend by placing packaging at the core of the sensory experience, favoring soft, rounded silhouettes. The enveloping tactility and intuitive application gestures “help transform the beauty ritual into a moment of pleasure, felt from the very first touch.”
To transform the beauty ritual into a moment of pleasure from the very first touch, Albéa Cosmetics & Fragrance has created a new packaging collection dubbed Sugar Rush.
A new collection centered on sensorial pleasure
Created to meet rising expectations for pleasure, rich textures, and immersive application moments, the collection features five innovative packaging solutions, two of which feature formulas developed by MS BeautiLab, reinforcing the collection’s sensorial focus:
– Crystal Bloom, a compact with minimalist lines, offering a fresh and elegant aesthetic, filled with MS BeautiLab’s Butter Balm Blush, a creamy, melting formula that blends seamlessly for a natural, healthy glow;
– Lolli Tottle 15ml, a portable, playful, and ergonomic format with a soft-touch coating;
– Nano Stick, a compact, precision-designed format whose tactile feel and application recall the rich, enveloping textures of food. For this packaging, MS BeautiLab developed Butter Highlighter, a creamy formula designed to effortlessly brighten the complexion.
– Square Jar, a jar with clean lines, combining robustness, a soft touch, and a large surface area for sensory expression;
– Sunset Mascara, a mascara designed for intuitive handling and a gentle application, echoing the precision of culinary techniques.
Albéa Cosmetics & Fragrance states that “this new collection lays a powerful creative groundwork for brands to reinvent sensory experiences in cosmetic packaging.”
