We all know the healing power of cupcakes. Now, in addition to taking them internally to sooth owies, you can also apply them directly to the wound with cupcake bandaids to help the healing.

If you are feeling particularly vulnerable about that big zit on your forehead, may I suggest the Eyeball bandage? Position it right and declare the day â€œMike Dayâ€ from Monster's Inc. Avoid any mention of the [one-eyed monster](http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=one-eyed+monster) however.

**Implications** - Businesses that discover unique and amusing ways to transform a traditionally mundane task from repetitive to ravishing will likely experience favorable results in today's society. Consumers will be willing to invest in a product that provides them with a brief or quick escape from their tedious day-to-day responsibilities and hectic lifestyles.
