[IPSY](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/i-play-beauty-campaign), the world's largest beauty subscription, teamed up with fast-growing restaurant brand [Raising Cane](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicken-finger-dipping-sauce) to launch a co-branded Moisturizing [Sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heinz-x-morleys). Raising Cane's x IPSY Moisturizing Sauce, touted as an "innovative, industry-first" launch, entices consumers who want to enhance their skincare routine with a delicious, effective solution.

Launched on April Fool's Day, Moisturizing Sauce is not available for purchase. Even so, Cane's Sauce is ready to be savored at Raising Cane on toast, fries, or chicken fingers, and IPSY curates the best moisturizers to enhance the look and comfort of skin.

Although this prank product isn't real, people can't be blamed for doing a double take since many QSR brands have launched genuine personal care products with savory ingredients inspired by fan-favorite menu items.
