Beauty micrometer
- ... that Max Factor helped to design the beauty micrometer, a "Clockwork Orange style device" used to detect tiny imperfections on women's faces?
Created by Violetriga (talk). Self nominated at 22:30, 3 November 2013 (UTC).
- Hopefully there'll be an image there soon, but copyright laws are silly. violet/riga [talk] 22:31, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
- And there is one there now. violet/riga [talk] 17:45, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
Nominated one day after creation, and is about 220 characters, satisfying length and date criteria. QPQ has been completed.

- It had been suggested that a crop of the other image would be "less free", but given that it's essentially the same image I find that a little confusing.
