If you’re concerned about smartphone privacy, this case makes your phone virtually invisible to spies by blocking radio frequency transmissions that could be used to track you.

You can still make calls, take photos and access all of your phone’s features. The accompanying app also lets you monitor Privoro’s activity. Privoro is available for the iPhone 6 and 6S, and versions for other phones are expected in the coming year. ($999) [email protected], 844.774.8676, privoro.com

05. la roche-posay my uv patch
Most people know that UV light can cause premature aging, wrinkles and skin cancer. What they don’t know is how much UV radiation they receive on a daily basis. That’s the information beauty and cosmetics giant L’Oréal seeks to uncover with this new patch. Waterproof and thinner than a strand of hair, the patch resembles a temporary tattoo; it uses NFC technology and photosensitive dyes to measure your UV exposure and communicate this to an app on your phone. Each patch lasts for five days and is available through L’Oréal’s La Roche-Posay skincare brand. loreal.com, laroche-posay.us
