Kylie Jenner's Kylie Cosmetics recently dropped a skin-caring Lip Butter in a new sheer coral pink shade with a Peach Mango scent, and to mark this limited-edition launch, the brand collaborated with Van Leeuwen Ice Cream on a special version of its Mango Sorbet. The custom peach-mango sorbet was made available exclusively at the Tribeca store in New York City, and on one hot day in July, the first 200 customers were treated to a free scoop and a free Peach Mango Kylie Skin Lip Butter.
Beauty brands are teaming up with scoop shops to create multisensorial experiences that go beyond just heavenly scents, serving up experiences that are good enough to eat. Fortunately for those who missed out on the Kylie Cosmetics collab, Van Leeuwen's Mango Sorbet can still be savored at shops nationwide.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- Businesses from different sectors are joining forces to create unique, memorable experiences that resonate with diverse audiences.
- Multisensory Marketing
- Brands are blending taste, scent, and visual appeal in their promotional efforts to captivate consumers on multiple sensory levels.

Sectors Adopting This
- Beauty and Personal Care

- Gourmet Food and Beverage
- Ice cream and dessert companies are exploring innovative collaborations with non-food brands to enhance product appeal and novelty.
