Consumers like when brands offer them more than they expect and amaze them with new product offerings, which could never be predicted. Following in the footsteps of Diet Coke with its nail polish and Virgin Atlantic with the lip gloss, Malibu Coconut Flavoured Rum has revealed its own make-up kit worth £20. The new set, which includes a mirror, coconut-flavoured lip gloss, eyelash curlers and eye shadow, is given to those who buy a Malibu drink for themselves and a friend at 4,000 participating UK outlets these months through the end of summer. For this promotion, the alcohol drinks brand teamed up with cosmetics brand, Models Own, which provided the make-up items.
Malibu, the well-known rum which sees taste innovation, beach partying culture and creative collaborations as essence of its brand style, is about to launch a new product Malibu Red slated to arrive in the U.S. stores in March 2012. To promote the new addition to its portfolio, the iconic rum blended with tequila, Malibu has teamed up with popular R&B singer and songwriter, film and television actor, Ne-Yo. So far, the brand doesn’t unveil much detail on the creative collaboration, but the press release discloses that “the story of Malibu Red will unfold through exclusive music, performances, video and digital conversations.”
Malibu has something in stock for those who dream of living the beach bum lifestyle and worship at the altar of sun, sand and surf. Courtesy of the brand, the best gig this summer isn’t in an office— it’s on the beach with a cocktail in hand. The perfect summer will be a reality for one outgoing guy or gal, when the iconic spirit launches a search for the Radio Maliboom Boom Correspondent across the USA. In this role, one fortunate individual will travel across the country attending concerts, reporting from the road, interviewing celebrities and celebrating the season of sun.
