Designer Toothbrushes?




These designer toothbrushes just appealed to me, made me think why would people want to buy a designer toothbrush? No-one sees these toothbrushes and it's not something you would take out and wear on your head for people to compliment. Yet someone has taken the time to design them as quirky and new so that people will buy them. Everything from the scenery they have been photographed in to the colour of them. Even the little bristles on the head have a little design on them, when all we would do is put toothpaste on it. They have even come up with concepts to suit people's personalities, extreme and forest - when in actual fact these toothbrushes do not have any functions that suit extreme people and their lifestyle. It goes to show that publicising and marketing these toothbrushes as 'designer' with the artistic approaches and concepts. Maybe anything can be buttered up to look like the next big thing, but when analysing it further there can be many reasons why it seems stupid really..
