Teenage girls who want customized makeup might want to consider literally printing it up on their home printer!
An entrepreneur named Grace Choi who I read about in Business Week has come up with a way to jailbreak a printer so it can make custom makeup. This schematic explains her idea in a step-by-step way.
By next summer, Choi will have a Mink machine available on the market to make the process easy. Her target market is girls 13-21 years of age.
Cosmetics is a $56 billion business. She doesn’t need a big chunk of it to be successful!
What Grace is doing is similar to what’s going on with 3-D printing. Of course, the name “3-D printing” is really kind of misleading. It’s more like 3-D manufacturing.
Instead of making a photocopy of a piece of paper, a 3-D printer is a machine that actually makes an item by creating it layer by layer out of plastic, metal, or other material — such as this Marble Run Yoda Base you see pictured here.
