Ice cube maker

This ultra funky, very cool ice cube tray is not an ordinary one with 3-D fronts and flat backs, but *full* 3-D characters -- both front and back! Featuring all your favorite Sanrio characters (Hello Kitty, Keroppi, Badtz Maru, Purin, Monkichi) in ice form. To make these cool characters, fill the bottom tray with water (or your
favorite liquid) so that it not only fills the characters, but overflows them a bit. Place the top tray on top slowly, squeezing down gently so that the water is forced into the shapes. It doesn't matter if some of the water flows out the holes. You want the water as close to the tops of the characters as you can get it. (It is recommended that you practice a bit with plain water before placing any other liquid in, for best results. Great fun!

Double eyelid

In Japan, there are two types of eyelids: hitoe (single-crease) and futae (double crease). Single-creasers look traditionally Asian, but double-creased eyes look more like the eyes of foreigners. This water-solvent "glue" allows you to create the effect that you have them. Extremely popular in Japan, to use, all you do it use the brush to apply a small amount to your upper lids, and then use the Y-prong to *gently* push up your lower lid to create the effect. Give yourself a whole new look that will surprise everyone, but be suspected by none.
