MOTIV: The Latest in Wearable Technology

They were only going to get smaller weren’t they… meet MOTIV, the fitness tech that fits inside a ring. It’ll count your steps and active heart rate, track your sleep and of course cover the calories you loose too. In fact the only thing it doesn’t do (yet) is trail that time of the month for ladies or tell you if someone is calling. Let’s face it, sleeping with the fitness watches on was always somewhat annoying.

The MOTIV has a subtle design, online security features that ensure the data is secure and comprehensive fitness tracking so you won’t miss a beat. Freeing up your wrist to wear something a little shinier, the MOTIV ring comes in 3x colors too, Bronze, Platinum and Black. It’s also ready for a dip whenever you are, fully waterproof up to 165 feet (50 meters / 5 ATMs).

It’s also super sleek in design with no bulking between fingers as it’s wrapped in a titanium shell, making it super durable, surprisingly light and stylish. How long does it last charged? Well it’s got a three-day battery life. When it does come time to charge, it comes with an ultra-slim charging dock that plugs into any USB port, and it only takes 90 minutes to get it back to full. The MOTIV Ring is less than 0.1 inches thick and weighs less than a penny to boot.

Dubai has a new piece of tech that will literally change your life ladies… no longer do you have to have that embarrassing phone call about which bikini wax you’d like in the middle of your office, speaking like a ventriloquist and willing the receptionist to understand your request telepathically. My VERY clever (and brave) sister has ventured into the world of tech, after working in the women’s fashion and beauty sector here for 5 years, and watching women suffer in silence.

I know I am notoriously last-minute with my maintenance requirements, often begging to sit on the floor of a salon if it means I can get in for a touch up that evening. BEEM takes all of that stress away from you, by helping to geo-locate salons for easy access. BEEM

So what is BEEM? It’s a very clever and easy to use APP that allows you to pick from the top 6 services; mani, pedi, eyebrows, eyelash extensions, wax and blow dry. You then get to pick 3 time slots for that day or the day after. As they have the BEST salons already signed up, you can choose from a chain you prefer, or find some that are closer to you and select one of them. There are also featured salons, which is great if you don’t know your way round the city’s hotspots yet. Once you’ve chosen, BEEM will search for availability, and the available slots will be pinged back to you for you to confirm your selection. BEEM
