XWL said...: Not as bad as this. Both are wrong, very wrong, though.

And razors have been vibrating for years. Seems like it's an application of the same principal for similar reasons.; 7/31/08, 12:31 PM
Anonymous said...: Why? Like the ad says "...for maximum results."; 7/31/08, 12:37 PM
Chip Ahoy said...: It's a breakthrough in application. You should buy it.; 7/31/08, 12:50 PM

I finally know how the Harry Potter freaks felt.

Put it on and go through the garbage.

Ann Althouse said...: Wiggle it a little?! We're talking 7000 oscillations a minute!; 7/31/08, 3:47 PM
blake said...: I think knox is suggesting you don't need all 7,000 oscillations.

Maybe you could do with 6985 fewer?; 7/31/08, 5:16 PM
Bissage said...: When they start making the Swiss Army Cell Phone®, that vibro-mascara thing's going to go into the basic model, for sure.

7,000 oscillations.

kimsch said...: Does it go on any faster or cleaner? Does it dry faster so you don't get mascara all over your eyelid when you blink?; 7/31/08, 6:37 PM
veni vidi vici said...: Is this perhaps the product of a co-branding deal with BettyBeauty.com?; 7/31/08, 6:43 PM

It could, but only if the product design team gives 110%. :); 7/31/08, 6:44 PM
