You've seen the wrinkle-busting balaclava… now try this terrifying pink anti-aging mask

Frightening tightening: The Facewaver Exercise Mask from Japan promises to give users a more youthful and energetic look

It all started with this: The Face Trainer works to reduce the signs of aging by toning the underlying muscles through a series of exercises

Strange: The device comes with detailed instructions of the exercises, which, if done for 10 minutes a day, are meant to help build up the muscles under the face and improve wrinkles

Among the amusing range developed in Japan is the Hana Tsun nose straightener - billed as a 'nasal support beauty clip' - which features two silicone prongs that must be inserted into the nostrils.

According to the seller, also Japan Trend Shop, putting the gadget into one's nose for 20 minutes a day is enough to achieve the perfect profile.

Other unusual products sold on the website include the £80 Eye Slack Haruka, which is aimed at combating sagging skin around the eyes with battery-powered vibrating pads, and the £70 Beauty Lift High Nose, which applies vibrations to help push the nose higher and make it firmer. 

The manufacturers insist that just three minutes' use a day will make enough of a difference that others will notice the user's perky new profile.

Quirky: The Face Slimmer Exercise Mouthpiece is made of a pliable silicone that is said to be comfortable to wear

For those who hanker after the plumped-up lips of Katie Price - or even more extreme, Pete Burns - the rather cartoonish Face Slimmer Exercise Mouthpiece slips over the wearer's own mouth, with the ultimate goal of boosting the lips to a more prominent pout.

And then there's the Facial Lift At Once Toner, a cylindrical white plastic gadget that is gripped between the user's lips where it buzzes at a high frequency, thereby toning the area.

Lip up: A facial lifting device fits between the lips where it buzzes at a high frequency to exercise the area, resulting, say the manufacturers, in a youthful, taut complexion

'All you do is put on the mouth cover, pop it in your mouth and it does the hard work for you!,' the website claims, adding: 'If only running a marathon could be as easy!'

The Japan Trend Shop claims the results are instantaneous.

Other gadgets include rubber masks that can be strapped on to provide resistance for facial exercises (just 10 minutes a day will provide staggering results, they say) and a pair of outlandish goggles that the makers claim will mean you 'won't look old and tired any more' thanks to their ridged form that massages tired, lined eyes.
