Mink is a 3D printing company based in New York.[1] The company created a 3D printer allows users to select any color and print it into an eye shadow pod.[1][2]
Mink was founded by Harvard grad Grace Choi and debuted at TechCrunch's Disrupt conference in May 2014.[3] The printer combines ink with a variety of substrates to "create any type of makeup, from powders to cream to lipstick," according to Choi.[2] All ink used by Mink is FDA-approved.[4]
The printer was initially estimated to retail at $300.[1]
