Beauty Gadgets

When we posted a relatively simple beauty gadget on Facebook the response was huge.  "I need this in my life!"  "Where can I find one?".  And it got us to thinking - what other cool beauty gadgets are we missing out on?

And a mission was born.  Here's what we found.

1. The Nail Polish Bottle Holder.


This is the gadget that started this mission.  No more awkward bottle grasping. No more nail polish spills.  Similar silicone holders are available online from NZ nail stores for around $5.

2.  Q Redew.


This rather strange looking object is a handheld hair steamer.  Yes you read that right.  This is perfect for all hair types, but especially curly hair.  It promises to restore moisture. rejuvenate and reshape flat hair.  You'll find it for around $70 US on Amazon.

3.  The Hot Pocket.


We're huge fans of this gadget here at BRHQ.  It protects your surfaces from heat damage - it'll hold your hair dryer, straighteners and curling wand.  It clings to your vanity or desk and is heat resistant up to 260 degrees! AND, it's on special at Bossy Cosmetics right now for under $20. 

4.  The Quantum Scale.


These are scales with a slight difference.  They don't tell you how much you weigh.  They save your weight (without you seeing it) and from then on whenever you step on them they tell you how much you have lost or gained.  Don't let the fact Dr Oz approves them put you off!  They're around $39 US.

5.  The Cool-It Caddy


A stylish cosmetics case that keeps your makeup cool while you're travelling.  Genius!  And the tag line has us sold.  Cool inside.  Haute Outside.  We say it again.  Genius.

And now for some oddities from around the globe...

6.  The Nose Straightener.


We have no words.

7.  The Beau Bust Roller.


Using pressure and electrical stimulation you can apparently improve firmness and increase the size of your boobs.

8.  The Neck Stretcher.


Again.  Words fail us.

9.  The Sauna Face Mask.


This slightly Hannibal mask will allow you to sweat the fat off of your face.  Which if you know even just the basics of weightloss, isn't quite how it works...

10.  The Face Slimmer


Pop it in, repeat the 5 vowel sounds over and over.  Slim your face.*

So there's 10 beauty gadgets that piqued our interest - what do you think of them?  Has the world gone mad, or are there some 'why didn't I think of that?!' products in there?  Get chatting below!

 

*If your mind went to the gutter when you saw this product...you are forgiven!

Hehe! My nail polish holder...I still really want that. I like the Quantam scale, that's clever. The sauna one reminds me of Hannibal Lecters mask, awesome haha

The nail polish holder was very appealing but the Face Slimmer, wow.

9th February, 2015

The nail polish bottle holder and the hot pocket both seem like wonderful inventions however the rest... are ridiculous to say the least!!

9th February, 2015

The list goes from acceptable to totally bizzare and out of this world lol. I bet Some of those designs took some real out of the box thinking

9th February, 2015

Some of them look ok, but others a little strange looking lol.. not too sure about the sauna face mask.. The hot pockets sounds useful

9th February, 2015

Haha Ong I thought the same thing!! Loving the look of the hot pocket though have had my eyes on that baby since I first saw it on BR!

9th February, 2015

Wow. This is crazy - good way of making money though...

9th February, 2015

Yes .. Gutter thinking here too.. Lucky I read it. My mind did wander off though.

The hot pocket is my favourite, must get one, I got a new hair straightener for Christmas. As for some of the other weird gadgets, what sort of mind thinks of these things?

9th February, 2015
