Gone are the days of daydreaming about a magic mirror that can attest your unrivalled beauty – it’s here, and it’s smart too. Now, the time you spend in front of a mirror can do more than just providing you with your reflection; it can contribute to making you the best version of yourself physically. A range of smart mirrors have claimed to offer such futuristic features, but the first one physically available to consumers is HiMirror. Priced at $189, this revolutionary gadget captures your ‘au naturel’ countenance with an integrated camera, thereafter providing you with personalized skincare advice for a healthier complexion. Upon trying it out, I found myself astounded by the wide array of features it offers.
The HiMirror, weighing 5.5 pounds, comes with an adorable design highlighted by delicate pink accents that make it seem more friendly than intimidatingly futuristic. It includes a 14-inch LCD screen and a camera nestled within a ring flash that enables capturing high-quality images at all times. The smart mirror snaps a picture of your face each day, thereafter analysing your wrinkles, dark spots, dark circles, red spots, and pores. The goal here is to monitor changes in your skin over time, highlighting potential issues, and enabling you to take early action to improve your skin’s health, thus helping you achieve your beauty objectives.
During a recent demonstration, I positioned myself in front of the mirror, aligning my face carefully with the on-screen outline for the best results, until the camera recognized me. HiMirror then snapped a photo, displayed it and provided a comparative analysis. The system compared my reflection to another person’s profile and pointed out that I had fewer fine lines and red spots but worse dark circles than the day prior. Consequently, it nudged me for more sleep and hydration, highlighting how it’s more than just a mirror. Besides the friendly advice, HiMirror pairs with an iOS or Android app, allowing you to keep track of your complexion even when you’re on the go.
In addition, HiMirror is capable of playing instructional videos on the correct skin-care techniques, stream music from Spotify, and provide a daily weather forecast and UV index. It can also be informed about specific beauty products that you use, which will help it evaluate their effectiveness in treating your skin. To add a product, just flash the barcode in front of the camera for it to scan. Currently, it supports a wide range of popular brands.
This evolved mirror brings us a step closer to the future of beauty by offering personalized skin-care guidance through advanced technology and user-friendly interfaces. Embrace the future today and achieve your beauty goals seamlessly with the HiMirror.
