Heineken Silver Reinvents Skincare with Cream That Blurs the Lines Between Beer and Beauty

Heineken® Silver, the beer renowned for its ultra-refreshing smoothness, today unveils The Heineken® Smootheriser, a “skin-smoothing” beauty cream. Blurring the boundaries between beer and beauty, the cream draws inspiration from Heineken® Silver’s crisp, easy-drinking formula, taking it beyond just beer.

At a time when consumers are engaging with brands in more unexpected ways, Heineken® Silver is leaning into cultural trends, stepping beyond traditional marketing to create something playful and disruptive. Launched in Asia, this unexpected creation taps into skincare’s popularity surge and the rise of self-care to engage a broader audience with something playful and disruptive.

Disrupting Expectations, One Smooth Move at a Time

Pushing category boundaries is in Heineken® Silver’s DNA. Brewed at -1°C for a refreshingly crisp taste, in true Heineken® Silver fashion the brand is making waves with its unconventional approach to brand engagement and sparking curiosity and conversation.

“The Heineken® Smootheriser is not just about jumping on the latest trends. It’s about Heineken®’s move to blend humour, innovation and cultural relevance to create a memorable crossover that gets people talking whether they’re into beer, skincare, or both. After all, when something is as smooth as Heineken® Silver, why stop at beer?” said Nabil Nasser, global head of the Heineken® Brand.

Stephan Schwarz, executive creative director at LePub Singapore, added, “Heineken Silver is so velvety that we just had to take it beyond the pint, bottling that sensation in the most unexpected way to create something you can actually touch and experience. Barley and hops never felt so good.”

A Cultural Conversation in the Making

While it makes its debut on April 1, The Heineken® Smootheriser is no April Fool’s joke. The product actually exists, blurring the line between parody and possibility. Infused with the same quality barley and hops that give Heineken® Silver its signature crisp taste, The Heineken® Smootheriser is exquisitely packaged with a premium formulation that’s designed to hydrate and nourish the skin. Over 1,000 limited-edition boxes are now available exclusively through select activations and giveaways.

The Heineken® Smootheriser will launch in Taiwan and Cambodia, coinciding with Heineken® Silver’s official launch in the latter market.
