A product combining the properties of skin moisturizer with palatable flavoring, designed for topical application with the potential for oral consumption. This category encompasses formulations intended to hydrate and soften skin while offering a pleasant taste, often achieved through the inclusion of food-grade flavorings and sweeteners. For example, a vanilla-scented lotion formulated with edible oils and flavoring extracts would fall under this classification.
The appeal of these items stems from their novelty and potential for sensory enhancement. Historically, products blurring the lines between cosmetics and consumables have existed, though recent formulations emphasize safety and quality control in both ingredient sourcing and manufacturing processes. Benefits may include enhanced user experience through dual sensory stimulation and perceived playfulness. However, responsible formulation and clear labeling are critical to ensure safe usage and consumer awareness.
