Vibrating Mascara: Because You're Worth It

Posted by Emily Farris

 

A few years ago we had a vibrator called the Hide-a-Vibe. It was "hidden" in a ginormous lip-stick-like tube. It's supposed to provide an "extra measure of privacy," but if we were the type to go through someone's things (we're totally not!) and came across a huge plastic container that looked like lipstick but was the size of a small banana, we'd sure as hell open it out of sheer curiosity.

While we love the idea of hiding a vibrator in a make-up container, the Hide-a-Vibe — while good at vibrating — was, unfortunately, not so good at hiding.

But what if there was a product out there that could actually do both, perfectly?

At the end of next month, Estée Lauder will begin to sell a vibrating mascara.

Forgetting for a moment that a vibrating mascara wand might make it easier to poke your eye out, it's actually supposed to serve a purely practical — and pure — purpose. Wiggling while applying mascara does separate one's lashes. But if we're going to pay $30 for mascara we damn well better get full, sexy lashes and get off.

So, being the dirty product whores we are, we're going to try and get our hands on one of these as soon as possible and we'll let you know if it's worth it. Because, duh, you are!

I think you'll need two, because having mascara on your naughty bits? Gross, and hard to clean. I know I'd be very skeptical about licking anything with little black specks on it.
