"Speed is of the essence." It's a hackneyed phrase, but one that accurately and succinctly describes the modern world. We all want our smart phones to be faster, for our computers to be faster, for our meals to be faster - we want to get our work out of the way more quickly so we'll have a little time for ourselves.

This is one of the primary reasons behind Glaspray's release of the new, patented Minimo line of sliding compacts. For getting to colour cosmetics, there's nothing faster. The  patented Minimo slides open when actuated with one hand, revealing enough space for a variety of cosmetic products. The godet slots are customizable and can accommodate a variety of concepts. A company could release a simple eye set with an included brush or a one-stop set using complementary colours for a full day's worth of make up, with products available for the eyes, the cheeks, the lips, and the full face.

The speed with which the compact can be opened can even take it out of the standard consumer arena and put it in the hands of professional make up artists working on movie sets or photo shoots, for those moments when a quick touch up is required.

The Minimo concept is compact for a compact, and fits easily into purses (even clutches) to provide access to make up in just about  any situation, from cocktail parties to conferences. Each Minimo compact also comes with a perfectly sized mirror that's excellent for spot application when a larger one is unavailable, no matter where the consumer happens to be.

Glaspray's patented Minimo is a totally new concept in colour cosmetic packaging that's bound to attract attention from time-conscious consumers and companies everywhere.
