Facial kits
Facial kits provide you with everything you need for a do-it-yourself spa experience in the convenience of your own bathroom. From a facial brush to a pore cleanser and from a massage roller to even a mist outlet, this lightweight, easy-to-use and surprisingly inexpensive kit is sure to keep your skin clean and fresh between appointments.
Bottle-opener key rings
Although originally designed to simply define one man's set of keys from that of another, today these small 'tag-like' items have become a fabulous fad.
Key rings are now found in the form of glittered names, iconic figures and even small stuffed animals. The most popular in recent times, however, has been the bottle-opener key ring. It's safe to say that with their witty messages and pint-size convenience, you're sure to 'pop-a-top' in style.
Fashion frames
With the introduction of bold colours, fun shapes and funky patterns comes the fashion frame revolution. Finally, the sight impaired have been given an opportunity to add flair to their must-wear accessory.
Whether it's a touch of turquoise to liven up a basic black or netted metal placed on thick arms, you're sure to catch the eye of others ... and for a good reason. Say goodbye to your Harry Potters and say hello to fierce four-eyed fashion!
Tip: When selecting your frames, ensure you choose one that complements not only your face shape, but also your skin tone.
Goodbye …
Headphones
With the creation of the smaller, more comfortable and even more stylish earphones, why do men and women alike still find it necessary to wear clunky headphones? Please join the rest of us in the 21st century and lose the headgear!
Flash-drive flunk
As we put aside our floppy disks and picked up flash drives, it seemed we also picked up an unfortunate fashion boo-boo - the string. In an attempt to keep these pricey backups safe, we continue to keep them on coloured and even textured strings placed around our necks. Survey says: 'Don't replace your chains for fashion chokeholds!'
