Christophe Roussel has created an edible makeup palette full of delicious sweets. Everything from the palette itself, to the brush, lipstick and eye shadow can be consumed. Even the lipgloss is edible, as the tube is filled with a mouth-watering chocolate spread.
All of the edible makeup pieces are either made out of chocolate or a blend of fruits, spices and ganache. What makes this treat so original is that it appears as if it's a makeup kit or paint kit, but it's really food. By incorporating two things that women love, chocolate and makeup, and then rolling it into a product, it is creating a distinctive piece that is sure to stand out from competitors. When shopping for gifts, one can turn to a regular box of chocolate, or instead purchase a gift that is sure to surprise.
