At last, the unscary makeover













We know women who'd rather go on the Stealth ride at Thorpe Park than have a department store makeover.
     We know where you're coming from. (Although we've also had fantastic makeover experiences ourselves, most notably at Bobbi Brown, Laura Mercier, Clinique and Chanel.)
     So:  you need to know about Shiseido's Magic Mirror, based on a revolutionary technology:  it scans your features, then allows you to 'apply' a range of lip, cheek and eye shades so you can see how they'll look on you - very realistically.
     No walking around wearing scary green eyeshadow all afternoon.  Or dashing back to the office to wash your face.
     Magic?  We'd say it lives up to its name...

And here's where to find the Magic Mirror, in a department store near you...
