Cruising through these forums, I have found it mentioned frequently that its a good idea to keep certain skincare items refrigerated. I used to put lipstick and eye pencils in the 'fridge if they got too hot and slightly melty during the summer months, and I have friends who refrigerate other makeup items as well.
But, who wants to trudge all the way out to the kitchen morning and night for our skincare products, then trudge back to the refrigerator when done using them?
Then it dawned on me ... why not keep a mini fridge in the bath or bedroom? I mean a REALLY mini fridge! So, I went on eBay and Amazon and lo and behold ... I found a number of itty bitty 'fridges for sale! One of them even has Hello Kitty on it! If you look up "mini" or "compact" refrigerator on eBay or Amazon, you'll see what I mean ... these things are tiny. Some are only large enought to hold a 6-pack of soda, some hold 2&1/2 6-packs ... you get the idea. And besides Hello Kitty, they come in some really cute colors and range in price from about $45-$50 (though some are only for use in the car - they plug into the cigarette lighter socket).
Am I just strange or is having one of these a good idea? Would they cool products to a low enough temperature to be useful? Thought? Opinions?
Thanks! |

Sormuimui posted this one in the lounge a little while ago and we were all drooling over it. It's the absolute haute cuisine of cosmetic fridges with 4 micro-climates, but retails for just under 4,000 USD

40 degrees below ambiant temp so it seems like a little too cold because Tiger_tim's rec was around 65-68 degrees farenheit, which could be achieved w/a wine cooler as they generally have adjustable thermostats.
There is one on the site for $88 w/free shipping to stores. The only downside I see is the size (rather it be like the one jlrobatzek found) and the shape of the shelves since they are for wine. I suppose you could take them out but then you'd lose the storage space.
