Augmented reality mirror enables testing Shiseido makeup

Interesting concept! Already saw things like these before, but not actively used in stores. Isn't this great? As a woman I think this is a very good invention: never walk out of a makeup store looking as a clown anymore ;-)

Found via Springwise.

Raplapla pluches

Love these pluche toys by Raplapla, spotted via the very nice webshop Ethic Garden. They are very creative and handmade of course:

 

Readeo: bedtime stories at long distance

At Springwise, I came across this concept called Readeo. The platform enables parents to share bedtime stories at long distance via the web. Great idea, that also makes use of the webcam. 

"The Chicago-based company's patent-pending application integrates digitised picture books with webcam communication, allowing adults and children to share stories while seeing and interacting with each other. A diverse library is available on the site." Springwise tells us.

The Working Proof: selling art for charity

Well... not all the money goes to charity, but about 15% of the earnings. At theworkingproof.com, artists can submit their work and choose their own charity they would like to support.

The Working Proof is an interesting concept, although I'm a bit disappointed they only add new work on a weekly basis. Why not more? Think this could really work well and the platform will probably be an inspiration to others.
