Apparently you are supposed to let your wine breathe before you start drinking it. Ideally with a decanter. But that takes way too long. Enter the Vinturi wine aerator. As you pour wine through it, the right amount of air gets drawn in, aerating your wine almost immediately for a better bouquet, enhanced flavors, and a smoother finish. It might not make much difference with a bottle of Two Buck Chuck, but for impatient wine snobs (hi Dad!) it sounds like the perfect gift.

Wired magazine once said this tool was like a Sonicare toothbrush for your face. A portable, battery-powered device, the Clarisonic Skin Care System removes makeup, cleanses your face, and leaves your skin feeling and looking younger and smoother. It also reduces the appearance of visible pores and takes care of dry patches, oily patches, and blemishes. It sounds like some kind of sandblaster, but it's gentle enough to use twice a day.
