Perhaps Barbie isn't the only nostalgic figurehead making a comeback this summer.
Remaining true to the brand’s farm-raised roots, head of product development Ayesha Bshero turned to potato pulp, which delivers vitamins C, B6 and amino acids to the skin. From there, minting a Mrs. Potato Head collaboration quickly emerged as the logical next step.courtesy
“One of the biggest parts of the nostalgia trend we’re seeing for Millennials is movies. Mrs. Potato Head was one of the stars of ‘Toy Story,’ so Millennials recognize her; older people from Gen X to Boomers can also tap into that nostalgia from having her as a toy — she hit all those different demographics,” Farrell said.
Mrs. Potato Head — who turns 70 this year — is the second high-profile spokesperson to join the Beekman 1802 camp, following the brand’s 2021 induction of lifestyle TikToker Kat Stickler. As part of the collaboration, Beekman 1802 will roll out a number of short-form videos on social media depicting Mrs. Potato Head in the lab helping to cook up Potato Peel. The product will launch chain-wide at Ulta“We’re not the type of brand to go the more traditional route and hire a traditional spokesperson,” Farrell said. “Potatoes have spots; they can be discolored and bumpy from damage from the sun and the Earth. [Mrs. Potato Head] is the most iconic figure who could bring this to life.
