9 innovations containing 'beauty'

Chocolate liptstick

Master chocolatier Dominique Persoone brings out, after the chocolatesnuff machine for Rolling Stones, now also lipsticks and ediblemassage cream chocolate.
Beauty treatments have used chocolate for a while, but you are not allowed to taste it. Persoone mixed almond oil with original chocolate and mint. This cream penetrates the skin, gives a fresh feeling and, you can eat it. He is also testing a mix with lavender for a relaxing effect.

Revolutionary are the lipsticks based on chocolate. Food scientist Bernard Lahousse told Persoone that many lipsticks contain cocoa butter, so why not give lipstick a good taste? The result was surprising and easy: you place empty forms into a mould, squirt the filling in and let them set, like ice blocks.
