Some skin gadgets are just toys. On the other hand, we have this intriguing new product from Philips. It’s called Crystalize and it takes extreme closeup pictures of your face, then analyzes the results and recommends products for your skin type. Crystalize was developed with the advice of university dermatologists and is unbiased in its recommendations – Philips does not accept comission of any sort and recommends products across all price points.
Do women want to discuss their skin problems with online strangers?? Are you kidding me? Of course they do! Women jump at the chance to review and share on sites like MakeupAlley, and in forums where they communicate and share tips with total strangers. Philips is wise to bank on women using this product and then joining their social networking blog to talk about the results. For now, a Crystalize assessment costs $90 and is only available at one retailer in the world: Studio BeautyMix at Fred Segal. If anyone out there is a beta-tester, I would love to hear about it! Next time I am in California I will have to swing by and do some reconnaissance.
thanks Mattie
