I like the sound of the cleansing stick and customised lipsticks. I kind of customise my own lipsticks by mixing two different colours together.

Cleansing sticks would be great to take in your carry on for long haul flights and they wont upset the liquid restrictions.

The custom lipstick is the one that interests me most.

I'd love a custom lippie, always trying to find that perfect pinky-mauve but they never seem to be found!

I'm looking for a similar shade at the moment. NARS has a few pink/mauve lippies I'm thinking of buying soon. I'm looking at online swatches because I don't have a Mecca store anywhere near me.

I love those hair jewelleries! Yes, the pokemon's are cute but I don't think I have time to be that fancy with them on my nails. My 12 year old would think I was a very cool mum though if she saw me with those!

I don't like the look of the cleansing sticks either, but the customised lipsticks sound like a great invention. Lip lab, love it!

Hair piercings are groovy, I do kinda like Pokémon go only cause it Pokémon was my childhood favourite game with friends it should be around awhile ago that's why it went so big so fast :)

Love to try the cleansing stick

I already use a make-up remover pen, which isn't bad, though the tip becomes useless fairly quickly. I'd like to try a thicker end, to clean up larger messes more quickly.
Very interested in the concept of customisable lipsticks! I love experimenting with various shades of lippy, but there aren't many that actually suit me well, in my opinion

Hair piercings, psssh!
I would so buy the cleansing sticks if they can effectively remove eyeliner and mascara.

I love hair clips, but just a little bit subtler than these piercings. I really don't understand the appeal of Pokémon Go. I wish it would be gone!

Cleansing sticks sound interesting.... I wonder how well they work. I love the idea of customised lippy. Hope it comes to Adelaide - I'd love to give that a go.

Hair piercings are just hair clips, right?
But the cleansing sticks, I wouldn't mind looking into those.
