Minions: Rise of the Guru, the next instalment of the popular Despicable Me franchise, is hitting theatres in 2021 and [K-beauty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oliviaumma) brand is tapping into the popularity of the yellow cartoon characters with the [Tonymoly x Minions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tonymoly) collection. The themed skincare collection includes a wide range of products—everything from lip balms and glosses to body masks, scrubs, aromatherapy sticks and hand creams. Thanks to the Minions' love of bananas, most of the items are [banana-scented](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prada-beauty-lip-balm).

The summery skincare collection boasts bright primary color packaging with playful shapes, as seen in the fruit-shaped Strawberry Banana Hand Milk and the Eucalyptus Calming Night Mask with a one-eyed character peeking over the top of the lid.
