Those infamous Skittles commercials say, "Taste the Rainbow" - and Lip Smackers wants consumers to feel like they are "wearing the rainbow," on their lips. This new gift-able packaging aims to catch the attention of Tween shoppers - and their moms - during the Easter holiday.
Mars Retail Group partnered with Markwins to package its new Lip Smacker Lip Balm Trios, candy-flavored lip balms, inside plastic Easter eggs. The ad camapign says "Kiss the Rainbow, Taste the Rainbow."
The Skittles and Starburst candy-flavored lip balm flavors are: a Skittles Trio that includes the flavors of green apple, wild berry strawberry and strawberry; and a second, with strawberry starfruit, banana berry and mango tangelo. One Starburst Trio includes strawberry, mango melon and orange; another contains cherry, watermelon and strawberry.
John Capizzi, general manager of licensing for Mars Retail Group, said, "We're proud to team up with Markwins and Lip Smacker in creating these new offerings, which will make terrific Easter gifts."
Bill George, President of Markwins Beauty Products, Inc., added, "As an iconic pop culture brand, we are thrilled to reinforce our partnership with Mars, Incorporated...We will rely on Markwins Beauty Products' strong distribution network to bring to passionate fans around the world even more fun, fruity and candy colored flavors, which have largely contributed to Lip Smacker's success and iconic status."
