Battery-Powered Mascara

[Jaye]

I got an email from Dillard's yesterday about this new product from Lancome. It's a motorized mascara wand called "Oscillation". They claim that the back-and-forth action replicates the correct stroke for proper application.

I saw that and all I could think about was Larry the Cable Guy. Bringing the "Git 'er done" philosophy to a whole new level. I've been accused of putting on foundation with a trowel before, but this is ridiculous.

Hey - I've got that oscillation built in. It's called essential tremor. All I have to do is bring the mascara wand up to the lashes, and my hand vibrations do the rest.

Unfortunately these shakes and my lousy vision combine to paint my ears with mascara.

At any rate, I have saved $34.

Hugs,

Only in America! Just imagine what I could do with 7000 oscillations per minute

Kay,

My imagination stopped with 6900 oscillations

I've seen numerous oscillating mascara brands at target. they were in the 10.00 - 12.00 range if i remember correctly. i'm certain that is less expensive than lancome's if someone wants to try it.

I with you on that one Lydia, i have the same tremors. though for now fortunatly the majority of the tremors are in my opposite hand. Hope it stays there too.

Geez, my hand is fairly steady and I still get mascara on my eye occasionally. I can't imagine what I'd do if the wand vibrated!

Still, if anyone has tried this type of product, I'd like to hear the feedback.

I think I've seen a review of something like this. The general thought was that the best way to apply mascara is to move the wand back and forth and so it this gave better coverage to the lashes.
