Hate having to test every foundation out there just to find a single one that barely matches your skin color? Prescriptives not only test and keep records of the condition and tone of your skin, they can also get you a custom blend of anything from moisturizer to lip-gloss.

NIKEiD

Get yourself identified with a customizable pair of Nike shoes. You first choose a category (running, soccer, training, or basketball shoes), a color, then a style to base your design on. After that, you can go crazy on all the other parts, from the soles to the laces. The prices of these shoes are between US$100-150 (B3,000-5,000).

Converse

A dek naew’s wet dream for customizable kicks has just come true as you can now design your own Chuck Taylors. Choose from Converse’s signature styles and then pick a color for almost any part of the shoe—tongue, sides, rubber lining and laces. You can even add your name to mark your property. A pair will cost you around US$60-80 (B1,900-2,600)

Monopoly

The classic game Monopoly can be customized to any theme (birthday, wedding, house-warming, etc) so you don’t have to be stuck with the standard get-out-of-jail routine. You can change the name on all the spaces and decide on your own penalties or rewards. It’s £79.99 (B5,000) a set.

M&M’s

Get rid of those boring M’s and add your own messages instead. You can include up to two custom messages on the candies. You can also choose the colors and the packaging—a tin box or a plastic pack, you decide. Prices start from US$30 (B900) depending on the packaging design. Want to buy in bulk? For a 5lb. box it’s US$130 (B4,300).
