Technology Features
· The packaging features a hybrid dispensing innovation, which introduces a click-based propulsion system that moves the lipstick up and down in controlled increments, rather than relying solely on a traditional propel-only mechanism. This new click system makes it possible to use a different dispensing architecture without compromising formula stability.
· Precise product dosing: Each click dispenses a calibrated amount of product, ensuring the user always gets the optimal quantity for application.
· Protection of the formula structure: The incremental click movement reduces mechanical stress on the lipstick bullet, helping maintain the integrity of a very soft, high-glide formula.
· Enhanced glide performance: By exposing only a small, controlled portion of the lipstick, the system helps preserve the extreme glide and creamy softness of the formula during application.
