For those with particularly blurry eyesight, I can imagine that [applying cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loreal-sync) could become a bit of a guessing game. The Magnifying Flip Lens Makeup Glasses are an outside-of-the-box solution to what must certainly be a daily frustration for some women.

Made by [Kikkerland](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/koala-sponges), the eyewear cleverly features a [pivoting inner frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/editions-pliables) that can be rotated out of one side of the main frame and repositioned as the other lens. This leaves one eye nearly obstruction-free for the application of eye shadow, but it also enables the other eye to see clearly with 2.5 times magnification. The swiveling spectacles increase the woman's efficiency and accuracy while getting gussied up for the day. These Magnifying Flip Lens Makeup Glasses are such a neat idea!
