About Freeze Into Fragment of Time Lipstick
Freeze Into Fragment of Time is a lipstick package inspired by the hourglass. The body is shaped like an hourglass and is covered with highly transparent PETG, so the product resembles an hourglass frozen inside ice. The surface is formed by irregular multifaceted scales that reflect even a weak beam of light into a bright highlight. A two-time injection molding method was developed to prevent material shrinkage and surface unevenness while keeping the light refraction. The package measures 20 by 20 by 80 millimeters.
