Just When You Thought the World Couldn't Get Any Weirder, Along Comes This New Generation of Beauty Trends. Brace Yourselves….

We make it our business here in Beaut HQ to keep our finger on the pulse of all that's happening in the world of style and beauty. So whether it's a brand new, scientifically proven anti-ageing cream or the latest in bum-toning flip flops, we want you to know about it.

But we also like to keep an eye on the weird and wacky things making waves around the world, such as the unflattering yet functional C-String, which we explored in detail not too long ago. If you haven't read that article yet, you may want to approach with caution.

Today, we're take a look at a few other things taking flight, particularly over in Japan, including the very strange, apparently aesthetically pleasing donut/bagel implants. You know, where they create the shape of a ring donut on their forehead by injecting a saline solution under the skin. Gorgeous.

Or are you fed up of your small to medium sized boobs that JUST WON'T GROW? Well, pushing your elbows together whilst chanting 'we must, we must, we must increase our bust' won't get you anywhere, but the F Cup Cookie might. This ladyfinger-looking invention promises to ramp up your cup size thanks to some mysterious breast-enhancing herbal ingredient called pueraria mirifica.

F Cup Cookies will help you achieve larger breasts while you relax, and enjoy a tasty low calorie cookie.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm sold.

And I'm quite taken by the Beauty High Lift Nose. Is your nose ever so slightly crooked and downward pointing? Well in Japan, rather than head straight under the knife, they've come up with a few handy ways to remedy your wonky shrón. This electric contraption works by gentle vibrations from the bottom, side and front. Spend just three minutes a day with this monstrosity clipped onto your face and before you know it, you'll achieve "a nose lift without the hassle."

Or if that one's a little on the electrical side, you could always go for this nose clip that straighten your nose while ensuring you remain stylish at all times, for it's designed in the shape of a lovely butterfly. Nawww.

Alternativey, if you find yourself with more than a few facial issues, you could always just GLUE A NEW FACE ON. We can't believe this is a real thing but it's got proper testimonials 'n all. Here's one from the dedicated Uniface website:

I put make up on everyday, but I never feel satisfied with my face. Uniface newly developed a 'Bionic-skin' face mask and 'Cell-blending' glue. Simply by one spray, you can have all the beautiful facial features. Perfection is only one step away, Uniface.

From the company itself:

"Uniface mask is a dream fulfilling face that satisfies today’s beauty standards. Giant anime eyes, long lashes, a high nose bridge, and narrow chin and cheeks are all in one product for a lifetime’s worth of confidence.

Sure, you'd never know that these weren't real faces (well, only if your sight is rapidly diminishing). If you want a new face that appears in a perpetual state of shock, or think the whole human look is overrated and you'd rather look like a bionic doll, then Uniface is worth investigating.

Would you ever dream of experimenting with any of the above? Though we probably already know the answer to this one. Whats' the strangest beauty craze you've seen? To the comments on a Friday afternoon!
