Beauty-Inspired Slime Toys

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Gui Gui Makes Gen Alpha's Skincare Obsession Age-Safe & Fun

— February 25, 2025 — Life-Stages
Gui Gui by Moose Toys is a new line of beauty-inspired slime for kits that mimics the textures, scents, and colors kids are drawn to.

Gen Alpha is captivated by beauty products with sensorial formulas and vibrant packaging. In response, toy brands are launching beauty-inspired products designed for safe, age-appropriate play, allowing kids to explore without the high cost of products targeted at more mature skin, which often feature inappropriate ingredients for youth.

Gui Gui invites kids to unbox products like an influencer, enjoy scented slime, mix boosters to enhance Gloss, Clear, Butter, and Cloud textures, and add charms to personalize their creations. Kids can also look forward to discovering blind collectible figurines and displaying their creations in cosmetic-grade jars.

2. Youthful Skincare Fascination - The demand for youth-targeted skincare play products highlights an emerging market focusing on age-safe beauty experiences.
3. Collectible Play Experiences - Integrating collectible elements into toys, like blind figurines, enhances engagement by combining the thrill of surprise with creative play.
Industry Implications

2. Children's Skincare - The creation of skincare-inspired play items presents new opportunities within the children's skincare industry for educational and safe product lines.
3. Sensory Play Products - Expanding sensory play offerings by using adaptable textures and scents aligns with the growing interest in multi-sensory stimulation among younger generations.
