Flavors of Maine Trio

We’re so excited to announce that our collab with Marin Skincare is here! Inspired by our mutual love of the Pine Tree State and an appreciation of Maine resourcefulness and practicality, these giftable bundles are perfect for the holiday season.

Mainers are known for their ingenuity, a characteristic that has helped the state’s heritage industries like lobstering prevail in a changing world. They are hardworking people, who look for solutions to everyday challenges in the environment that surrounds them. Amber Boutiette and Patrick Breeding, founders of Marin Skincare, discovered a sustainable way to repair dry and damaged skin while studying biomedical engineering at the University of Maine. Their secret ingredient? The protein that allows lobsters to regenerate limbs. Now, customers in all 50 states are treating their skin with hydration cream and lip balms made with glycoproteins, a byproduct of the lobster industry that previously went down the drain. Their success is just one example of the enduring resourcefulness that defines Maine’s people — a story Down East has proudly showcased since 1954 and is thrilled to support with these limited-edition bundles designed using nostalgic illustrations from the Magazine of Maine.

Each Bundle Contains

• 1 Blueberry French Toast Lip Treatment (0.5 oz tube)
• 1 Campfire S'mores Treatment (0.5 oz tube)
• 1 Unscented Lip Treatment (0.5 oz tube)
• 1 Down East x Marin sticker sheet

About Glycoproteins

Glycoproteins are molecules that bind and lock in moisture and stimulate skin cell growth to repair your skin barrier in the same way they help lobsters regenerate their claws. Marin partners with Luke’s Lobster to upcycle the protein — which used to go down the drain — adding even more value to Maine’s heritage industry and leading to a more sustainable fishery.
