Bizarre Mammal Lotions

Hippo Milk Body Lotion Uses Actual Hippo Milk as Its Main Ingredient

— March 9, 2015 — Fashion
The Hippo Milk Body Lotion uses real hippo milk to engage unique consumers. While cow's milk and sheep's milk are white in color, hippo's milk is 100% naturally pink. The pink shade of the hippo's milk is the reason why this obscure body lotion has its rose-like complexion.

The design of the bottle shows the unique color of the body lotion well through the use of a glass bottle. The ink color and craft paper were added to make the product feel earthy and natural. The cork and the bottle's minimal plastic outer shell make this product eco-friendly. Hippo Milk Body Lotion is fresh, clean and sustainable — not to mention it is cruelty-free too.

1. Animal-derived Skincare - Exploring alternative animal-derived ingredients for skincare products could create new and unique offerings for consumers such as Hippo Milk Body Lotion.
2. Sustainable Packaging - Developing eco-friendly packaging for beauty products can appeal to eco-conscious consumers and differentiate brands from their competitors such as Hippo Milk Body Lotion's minimal plastic outer shell.
3. Unconventional Ingredients - Incorporating unusual ingredients like hippo milk in beauty products can provide a unique selling point and intrigue consumers, offering new disruptive innovation opportunities for cosmetics companies.
