MOON Selfie, a unique compact selfie light accessory, has been launched today on Kickstarter. Its sleek and modern design is compatible for smartphones, thin screens and tablets.
With adjustable color temperature and brightness, users can enhance their lighting preference easily with a simple touch of the finger, allowing for the ideal lighting and perfect selfie experience anytime and at any place.
The inspiration for MOON came one night when CEO and Co-founder, Edward Madongorere was trying to take a selfie with his wife but was not successful due to poor lighting. An idea dawned on him to use his phone's flashlight and her phone's camera and that resulted in a superior picture.
Later on, Madongorere partnered with CTO and Co-founder, Dishen "Dixon" Yang, who also had a desire for engineering, product design, manufacturing and entrepreneurship. With over two decades of experience combined, the two put their ideas together to develop MOON.
Over 24 billion selfies have been uploaded to Google Photo App in the past year alone. Everyone is looking to capture themselves in the moment and if the lighting is poor, it can put a damper on creating those lasting memories. Whether you're sending a picture to your parents while traveling, or attempting to post the perfect profile picture, we want to help make the process better and easier with MOON's advanced lightning technology.

MOON Selfie Light comes in three color variations: Full Moon (white), New Moon (black) and Blood Moon (red), and retails for $49. As a tribute of the 2017 Solar Eclipse, a special limited edition all-black Lunar Eclipse MOON will also be on sale only during the Kickstarter campaign.
