Holland America Line has launched the first Lipstick Blending Bar at sea. It features a hands-on experience led by beauty consultants, enabling guests to design their own lipstick or gloss.
The Lipstick Blending Bar is available in the onboard shops and offers a palette of more than 30 premium pigments, four finishes and over 20 signature flavours.
Working together with the consultant, guests can choose their colours to create a one-of-a-kind hue, match a favourite discontinued colour, or formulate a shade that complements an outfit. Each tailored blend can be made into one of four finishes: butter, crème, matte or gloss.
Once blended, the custom formula is melted and poured into a lipstick mold or gloss tube. Guests can choose a custom name for their lipstick, which will be applied to the tube upon completion. In addition, each guest receives their personalised product along with a formula card listing their selected ingredients for future recreations.
The Lipstick Blending Bar uses products that are free from parabens, sulphates, phthalates and GMOs, as well as cruelty-free, gluten-free and vegan ingredients. The pigments contain antioxidants and SPF for sun protection.
The experience is $65 for a custom lipstick or liquid matte, and lip gloss is $60 per tube.
Carole Biencourt, vice president of onboard revenue for Holland America Line, said: “Today’s travellers are looking for more than just a holiday – they want exclusive experiences like the Blend Bar that feel personal, immersive and meaningful. We’re excited to launch the first lipstick blending bar at sea, where our beauty-loving guests can express themselves and create a unique souvenir of their time on board.”
