Welcome to the new Forum. Please feel free to start a new discussion.
Beauty products that don't exist, but you wish did.
  • Think of this as a kind of "getting to know you" thing. LOL
    1: A diet pill that not only works with no side effects, but can also make you healither by reducing colestoral, cleaning out a "fatty liver", and lowering your chances for cancer.
    2: A pin-point vacuum for sucking gross stuff out of pores that have become pitted and also sucking ingrown hairs out by the root.
    3: A lotion that's cheap and really does get rid of stretch marks.
    4: Tools you can use yourself, without help, no matter how limited your mobility is, to remove bacne.
    Come on, folks, use your imagination. No beauty problem too big or too small or too gross to imagine something you'd want to correct it - for cheap!
  • Skin Pills to be consumed orally with active ingredients required by the particular skin type like eczema, psoriasis, rosacea.
    Of Course, a machine to diagnose the skin type & rx the exact prescription.

    No more creams, lotions, sunscreens. Just a cleanser & pills!
  • A truly effective way to remove hair permanently. None of this "60% reduction in growth" or even "90% reduction in growth", I want 100% of it gone and I want it gone forever. From a specific area, of course.
    A suncsreen pill would be great too but I'd settle for a lotion that blocked everything, absorbed well and didn't have to be reapplied during the day.
  • Purple, Sunscreen Pills are already available.

  • A pill to keep hair at a desired length, so my haircut will never grow out. When I'm ready for a new style, I stop taking the pill for longer length, or obviously, get a new cut and style. My husband would want it so he wouldn't have to go every two weeks to maintain his regulation length flat top.

    In the same vein, I want a topical application to put on my kids' fingernails to maintain their just-trimmed length. Their nails seem to grow so fast and I feel like I'm always trimming them so the play-doh doesn't keep getting under them (not to mention paint, dirt, glue, glitter and all the other stuff they use for art projects at school). Again, my husband would appreciate this product for himself as well.

    I need something that gets rid of cowlicks.
  • mo, the pills are "designed to complement topical sunscreens" so we're not there yet.
     
     
  • Does anyone here read Daisy Owl?  Steve and Chester are building a "hair beam".

  • What an interesting topic!
    I also would love a sun-protection pill, especially if it also gave you a natural-looking all-over fake tan.
    I really would like a mascara that goes on looking great, is waterproof, stays on as long as you want it to with no flaking or smudging, and then comes off easily with standard makeup remover, or cleanser and water.
    A full-coverage concealer that looks completely natural.
    Nail polish that does not chip. Ever. Also, it does not stain or yellow nails. And it does not contain chemicals that make it necessary to use it in a well-ventilated room.
    A permanent hair color that can color your hair any shade, even the lightest blonde, and do absolutely NO damage to hair.  Wait, even better - it should improve the condition of your hair. And  it does not fade or otherwise change color. And you can do it at home by yourself and it only costs a dollar.
     
     
  • Great topic!  We're going to be posting a summary of this talk on the main Beauty Brains site to see if we can generate even more ideas!
    I always thought the invention in the Jetsons where they got out of bed, stood on a conveyor belt, went through a machine and came out looking completely groomed would be a nice invention.
    Or maybe just a device you could put on your head that would automatically create your hair style.  You could program the look you want using a computer and it would just make it happen.
    Skin lotion that removed age spots
    Product that helped people stop biting their nails
     
  • Apill that tans and SPF protects at once.
  • Heh. I'm tickled pink that my little idea is going to be on the main page!
    Meanwhile - I don't know if any of you watched that tv show Andromeda with Kevin Sorbo. But the character of Beka Valentine had nanites in her hair that allowed her to change it to any color she wanted with just a thought. I would love to have that. No more coloring! No more dark roots! 
    Actually it would be cool if nanites existed to do all sorts of things. From cosmetic things like stopping pimples from the inside before they start, to serious things like repairing damage to heart, lungs, and liver.
