Fabaroni: a pasta 3D printer made from scratch. Natural Machines: The makers of Foodini - a 3D food printer making all types of fresh, nutritious foods. Mink Is A 3D Printer For Makeup. 3D printing is all the rage these days, but for now, it’s mostly centered around little plastic doo-dads. The Mink, launching today on the Disrupt NY stage, is a bit different.
The little printer lets users choose any color on the web, or in the real world, and using simple already-existing software, print that color into a blush, eye shadow, lip gloss or any other type of makeup. See, most makeup comes from the same basic substrates, from high-end labels like Chanel all the way down to the cheap stuff available at drug stores. Founder Grace Choi sources the same substrate for the Mink so that users can turn any image into any kind of makeup. The idea here is that consumers are increasingly focused on instant gratification and DIY solutions.

The FabCafe caught our attention in Valentine’s Day when it turned 3D scans of heads into chocolate. Now, the cafe in Shibuya, Tokyo, is offering 3D printed gummi sweets for ‘White Day,’ which is a Japanese version of Valentine’s Day that falls on 14 March where males are expected to give gifts to their sweethearts. Nine lucky male customers will be selected to have their bodies scanned, rendered, and 3D printed into sweet treats. The event is part of FabCafe’s two-part White Day workshop. The works shop costs 6,000 Yen per person (around 62 USD) and the spots are limited. FabCafe is an innovative concept that offers a mix of 3D printing and laser cutting in a relaxed, cafe atmosphere.
