Here’s the thing about the Skinny Mirror — unless you’re playing a trick on someone, or you’re a shady clothing store, you’re going to know full well that your mirror is a Skinny Mirror. That’s like when people intentionally set their clocks a little fast: WHY? You know what the real time is!
If you’re looking in a Skinny Mirror, you KNOW what the real picture is!
The Entrepreneur behind it, Belinda Jasmine, says it’s an alternative to cosmetic surgery! We’re not sure if she was trying to get the biggest eye roll out of the world, but she did!
Basically, she says it’s a ‘self esteem booster,’ and that it’s the equivalent of someone saying that you look nice today. Except, when someone else says it, they might not by lying to you — or at least lying to you without you knowing full well they’re lying to you! LOLz!
There’s no new trick to it. Belinda has literally taken something that has been in funhouses for eons (curved glass) and repackaged it (pet rocks, anyone?) to make it seem like it’s new and bold and helpful! It makes you look up to 10 pounds lighter, but you aren’t really!
The only reason we would ever see this being useful for would be for those who are on a weight loss journey! Being able to visualize your goal 10 pounds at a time COULD be great motivation — or it could trick you into feeling comfortable where you are, when your health is dictating you should lose a little more!
Honestly, we just think this lady has come up with the easiest scam to steal £116 out of your pocket!
If you want one, though, we won’t judge! Just use it for good, not evil!!
Maybe the next version will have fake hair painted on the top of it, and she can market it to balding men! Take advantage of THEIR insecurities too, when they’re fine the way they are!
