But will a swipe of polish soon be replaced with a stroke of the razor? Inspired by its new disposable razors and popular shave gels, Skintimate recently opened the first professional leg shave bar in New York’s SoHo neighborhood.

For the launch of the brand’s campaign called Planet Earth’s Favorite Vodka—which encourages consumers to practice sustainability—the brand held a private event in New York that encouraged attendees to trade in recyclables for cocktails in an environment where recycled materials were used as decor. For Absolut Bar Recycle, which took place April 22 at West Edge, the brand tapped Team Epiphany to design an interactive space with vignettes and bars made from recycled materials and natural elements such as recycled wooden pallets, bubble wrap, and fresh flowers and greenery.

This mall sees more than 20 million visitors per year and is considered one of the more productive assets in Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield’s portfolio of 92 centers, across a dozen countries, today.
