Gold Facial. True Story.

When it comes to skin care, all I really know is that at the very least, you’ve got to cleanse, tone and moisturise.

Like me, you’ve probably heard of many far-fetched anti-aging approaches (or don’t really care): diamond dust scrubs, moisturisers made from fetal nutrients, and of course, the ubiquitous dead sea mud. But this one’s totally new and surprising, even to me…

24k Gold collagen face mask - I love gooold!

“While our new gold mask is simply beautiful, its real benefits are a matter of complex chemistry and biology. Gold powder, when combined with the proper level of silk extract, blocks free radicals to help the skin regenerate quicker and fuller. After a single treatment, your face will look and feel firmer, fresher and vibrant.”

At least that’s what Nicole Vitale, senior director of Equinox spas, says of their new treatment.

Personally, I’d rather have me some of these precious gold prizes:


The Ultimate Nail Clipper

Some things work perfectly. Others… well, they could be improved. The problem is that we become so used to what we have that we eventually just settle.

I was also puzzled when I first saw this.

One company is not willing to settle any longer. And they are on a mission to show you and I why their new improved nail clipper is the business…

AHA!

Meet Klhip: A revolutionary nail clipper that’s been reverse engineered so you apply pressure right above the blade. The results? Better ergonomics. Effortless cutting. And a nail so smooth you can skip the file ladies!

Snip!

Plus (and this is the biggie… wait for it!), clippings stay on-board instead of flying to the floor!

Brilliant Queen Bee Waxing Advert

Hanlon Worldwide Industries, an agency in the US, published this excellent advert this month for Queen Bee Waxing. I nearly fell off my chair when I saw it, and I’m not even the demographic!

Now they just need a novel Business Card and their campaign is complete!


Animal Weight Categories – What Are You?

Sometimes we have to face the truth (despite it being easier to ignore). That’s why this Animal Weighing Scale won’t tell you exactly how much you weigh, instead they will make a rough comparison…

animal-scale

Just hop on the scale and you’ll be told your weight by way of a regular animal. So for a mere £25.99 (about R314), you can find out if you’re up there with the baby rabbit, duck, pig or bear! Get it in a variety of colours over here.


Event: Mixed Martial Arts Invasion

We’ve all heard of or seen mixed martial arts from the guy with the bruised nose or on TV. But just like any sport, it’s just not the same hearing a second hand story or watching it on a little cube in the living room – you need to be there!

And now you can because iDale is giving away some tickets and goodies to the next MMA Invasion event… watch this space and check out the flyer…

What’s Wrong? Get Help…

This is what Help Remedies had to say about their awesome product designs:

“Our packaging is made of molded paper pulp and a bio plastic made primarily of corn. We use these materials because they are interesting to look at, and they are compostable—which means one day, they might become part of a large tree. Maybe you can cut down that tree and make it into a speedboat.”

Isn’t the packaging and branding just great?!

Don’t Be Late for the Gun Show

This is brilliant! It’s an alarm clock that won’t stop buzzing until you’ve done 30 reps in the morning. Now it may not be the heaviest weight, but if you take it seriously, maybe you can give those biceps a little more meat in the mornings…
