The Pitch:
Japan Trend Shop says, “Looking for that perfect Mother’s Day gift?” with an ad spotlighting the $94 Houreisen Face Exercise Mask (“Simply fasten the straps behind your ears and give your face a work out!”) and the $39 Pupeko Anti-Aging Mouthpiece (“Just pop the colorful Pupeko gently into your mouth, clench your jaw and breathe in and out”).
These are just two of the many whimsical products found in the site’s “Beauty Gadgets” section.
Why They’re Not Ideal:
Even the products’ models look borderline terrified, and they’re being paid.
Exception to the Rule:
Your mom already has the $80 Face Slimmer Exercise Mouthpiece and is looking for a couple more items to add to her collection.
