Corporate Lip Gloss Bar Chicago: Brand Color for Loop Teams and Clients
Our corporate lip gloss bar brings Chicago teams a gift they design themselves, in a color that can match your brand. Each guest picks a soft-matte lip cream or a high-shine gloss, and a host helps her build the shade. Then the color is poured into a new tube, capped, and handed over in a few minutes.
Downtown towers hold some of the best-known employers in the country. Willis Tower is home to United Airlines, ADM sits on Wacker Drive, and Northern Trust anchors LaSalle Street. So the Lip Lab often shows up in an office lobby, a conference floor, or a client lounge instead of a ballroom.

Why a corporate lip gloss bar works in Chicago
A corporate lip gloss bar gives Chicago guests a brand color they can actually wear. Send us your logo color code at booking, and in most cases we can match it. Plus, we can name the shades after your product line, team, or event, then print the menu and signage in your palette. As a result, every tube carries your story out of the building.
The tube is small enough for a handbag or a coat pocket, so it rides home on the L or Metra without a second thought. That matters downtown, because guests often head straight from your event to dinner or a train. Our most requested Chicago Lip Lab bookings are International Women's Day events, lobby pop-up events in Loop towers, and company family days. Also, Chicago planners tell us a branded tube is one of their favorite corporate gift ideas.
Who books a corporate lip gloss bar in Chicago
Women's networks and ERGs
ERG stands for employee resource group, such as a company's women's network. Downtown ERG committees book the Lip Lab because it turns a networking hour into easy conversation. In addition, many guests make a second shade as a gift for someone at home.
Financial firms and wealth teams
LaSalle Street financial firms book our corporate lip gloss bar for Chicago client appreciation and team celebrations. A tube with your firm's name on the label feels personal. Even better, it tucks neatly into a handbag after a long reception.
Large holiday parties
For parties in the thousands, we add hosts or pair the Lip Lab with our corporate candy bar near the entrance. Meanwhile, the corporate perfume bar often anchors the middle of the room.
How the Lip Lab works at a company event
Usually, two or three hosts serve about 100 guests over three hours. For a bigger room or a shorter window, however, we add hosts or pair the bar with our corporate candy bar. Many companies also book the corporate perfume bar in Chicago alongside it.
Our lip color is made in our own lab, and full ingredient and allergen details are on our allergens and safety page. On the day, we bring the bar, linens, displays, and signage. Afterward, we pack out cleanly.
Chicago venues for a Lip Lab
The bar takes about 12 x 6 feet and two 6-foot tables, or we bring tables. That's why a corporate lip gloss bar fits a historic Chicago hall, a rooftop, or your own lobby.
Chicago Cultural Center
Preston Bradley Hall and its Tiffany glass dome make a glowing backdrop for a leadership reception. Plus, a tray of fresh tubes photographs beautifully under that dome.
Cerise at Virgin Hotels Chicago
This 26th-floor rooftop suits smaller receptions, especially a women's network evening where every guest leaves with her own shade.
ROOF on theWit
A year-round rooftop looking over the river and the Loop, so a client evening here can happen in any season.
Hyatt Regency Chicago
Its Grand Ballroom on Wacker Drive holds up to 3,000 guests. For a crowd that size, we add hosts and pair the Lip Lab with a faster station.
Planning notes for Chicago
- Send your color earlyEmail your logo color code or a sample when you book. Then we have time to match the shade and name it before your date.
- Dock windows and freightLoop towers and hotels usually require a booked dock time and the freight elevator. We schedule both, and our team arrives one hour before guests.
- Lobby placementFor a lobby pop-up, place the bar near good light and a clear sight line. As a result, guests take better photos, and passersby can spot the shades from across the room.
- December fills fastDowntown December dates fill by late summer, so book three to six months ahead. In addition, proposals arrive within two business days, and a 50% deposit holds your date.

Corporate lip gloss bar Chicago FAQs
What does a corporate lip gloss bar in Chicago look like at an office event?
Hosts set up a styled counter with our 16-shade swatch board, pigments, and shimmers. Each guest picks a lip cream or gloss, builds a shade, and leaves with a capped tube in a few minutes. Because it moves quickly, it works well in a lobby between meetings.
Can our logo go on every tube?
Yes. We print custom labels with your logo or event name in advance, so please order them at booking. Allow about four weeks.
How many guests can you serve at a large downtown holiday party?
Two or three hosts serve about 100 guests over three hours. For a bigger room or a shorter window, we add hosts or pair the Lip Lab with our corporate candy bar.
Do downtown buildings need a certificate of insurance?
Most Loop towers and hotels ask for one. A certificate of insurance, or COI, is the proof of coverage a venue requires, and we issue it naming your building.
Can children join at a company family day?
Yes. Our Kids Lip Lab welcomes children ages 5 and up. So a corporate lip gloss bar at a Chicago family day can serve parents and kids side by side.
