Fingers are the latest “must-fix”

Written by: Rebecca Milner on December 29, 2007 at 12:01 am | In Fashion & Lifestyle Trends |

Just when you finally got your hair under control, now its time to work on your fingers. Or so says the number or products recently on the market specially designed for “finger care.” RanKing RanQueen, the ubiquitous station building store that carries a selection of top ranked health and beauty products, has started giving “finger care” its own category (like longtime obsessions such as hair and skin).

The top three in descending order:

3. “Yubi Germa Lax” (¥945) hand-held finger massager from Matensha
This previously top-ranked device promises to rejuvenate hands thanks to the wonders of germanium, a mineral that causes the device to warm up during use.

Germanium is a popular addition to many health and beauty products (from bath salts, to detox patches, to energy bands) for its purported ability to help everything from a low immune system to bad circulation.

2. “Kenassy” (no hair) finger hair removal puffs (¥409) from Bison (right)
Rub these cute heart shaped pads on your fingers to remove the tiny hairs. Look closely you probably have some that never bothered you, until now.

1. Diet Finger Cream (¥714) from Marna Cosmetics

Marna seems to have a whole line-up of body part specific sculpting creams although the fact that there doesn’t seem to be any positive reviews from blogs that mention the finger cream probably means it is too good to be true.

On the other hand, I found several rave reviews of the Yubi Lax Germa (Feels just like a massage at the nail salon! So easy to use and feels so nice!). Looks like some people will be getting this from me for Christmas.

  1. Do you know where I could order the Yubi Lax Germa from the US? My wife has problems with her hands and this looks like it might actually help! I’d love to get her one, but searches of the usual online J shops are turning up nothing for the Yubi Lax Germa. Thanks!

    This isn’t exactly what I had in mind when I posed the question the other day about whether anyone has seen a good massage device for Blackberry Thumb, but this little finger massager caught my eye at Trends in……
