Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

NYX Cosmetics' 'Love You So Mochi' Takes Cues from Dessert

— December 30, 2017 — Fashion
The 'Love You So Mochi' highlighter palette from NYX Cosmetics introduces a vibrant illuminator set that takes inspiration from pastel-colored Japanese desserts. The illuminating powder palettes available in 'Arcade Glam' and 'Lit Life,' each of which offers a different variation on the sugary-sweet theme. Like the well-known Japanese treat, the product is said to have a "soft and pillowy texture."

Although there have been plenty of cosmetic products inspired by desserts over the years, the foodie movement has inspired a deeper appreciation for the nuances of flavor, scents and color when it comes to food-inspired beauty products. In the past year, consumers have been introduced to everything from cocoa-scented beauty pencils to lip products inspired by chocolate hazelnut spreads, as well as other beauty items inspired by globally influenced treats.

3. Globally Influenced Beauty - The popularity of globally influenced treats has sparked a trend in beauty products that draw inspiration from different cultures, allowing cosmetic companies to explore innovative, diverse and exotic formulations.
