What you can't come up with for money: crazy inventions of the past

The modern world is replete with various technological innovations, which, to be honest, have turned our lives upside down: the Internet, television, airplanes, satellites and more. Nevertheless, among the amazing discoveries there are also those that may seem very strange, and sometimes even frightening. But it’s good that they are all in the past and now no one remembers them.

Let's travel back in time and see what they came up with before.

Amazing household inventions of the past

The first thing I would like to remember is a life jacket, which strangely resembles nothing more than inflated sausages. In fact, he even looked ridiculous. True, in the photo the people are quite joyful, but weren’t they embarrassed to wear it?

This creepy device was intended for ladies who wanted to get adorable dimples on their cheeks.

And here is a back brush with a rear view mirror. You wash yourself and make sure you have washed everything thoroughly? It’s a rather incomprehensible thing, because it seems like everything can be cleaned just fine with an ordinary washcloth, but here there’s also a mirror. For what? No one will answer this question anymore.

And one more accessory for taking a shower. True, such a cap seems less strange than a brush. I think that in times of lack of waterproof mascara, such a helmet was very useful for ladies.

But almost all Hollywood stars used such a mask in the past. In fact, it was a mask against the consequences of drinking alcohol, and it was invented by Max Factor. The product perfectly relieved signs of a hangover, refreshed the skin of the face, and combated swelling.But it looks really funny and ridiculous, but in reality it is quite effective.

Here is another very strange and even frightening invention. If you are a young mother who has no time to walk with her baby in the park, then you will probably like this thing. This is a cage that was attached to some window in the house, a warm blanket was laid there, and then they laid... a child! This way, it was possible to get the housework done, and the baby could breathe fresh air. Yes, a very strange invention. But, whatever one may say, it was very popular at the beginning of the 20th century.

Here's another invention for parents. According to the creator, it should have made walking with children much easier and more comfortable. But it doesn’t look very good, to put it mildly.

In the distant past, women did not even dream that waterproof mascara would ever appear, which would not be afraid of either rain or snow. Nevertheless, they knew about cosmetics, and in bad weather they had to be saved. So they came up with this strange mask that protected the face from water and prevented the mascara from smudging.
