Mink has upped its customization game by creating a simple, affordable makeup hacking system.
Customization is a leading consumer need impacting the beauty industry. Now, Mink, which previously released a 3-D printer for makeup, has introduced its Makeup Hacker Startup Kit ($55) that allows for quick, simple customization.
Available in 2017, the set includes four pigments, which can be precision-applied to consumers' existing products per directions offered on an accompanying app and measured by a special dial device. Once the pigment is added, it can be blended into the existing product with a brush to create the desired hue.
The entire process, per a Mink video, takes about a minute. The company describes it as the "easiest and most exciting way to instantly expand your makeup collection."
According to Mink, the kit allows users to:
