High Tech Beauty: The vibrating mascara.

Salam, friends.

Not many of you know but I'm a beauty junkie. I love cosmetics but never really have the time to apply makeup; still I' a beauty junkie. While shopping online I came across the vibrating mascara, created by cosmetics giant Lancome. It's called the Lancome Oscillation Mascara, it said to vibrate at the click of a button up to 7,000 oscillations per minute! Wow, now that is definitely high tech considering how slim a mascara tube is.

Here's a picture:

How cool is that?!

Alright, I know its not that new it had been released for about 2 years now, but it still manages to catch my eye. I have to admit I heard about it before but thought it'd only be released overseas and not in Malaysia.

Here are the claims:
(taken from the Lancome USA site)

Take your lashes to a whole new level with this revolutionary vibrating mascara that delivers 7,000 oscillations per minute to re-create the application technique of a makeup artist. This lash-transforming powerhouse does it all: lengthens, separates and multiplies with just the press of a button. In an instant, you’ll experience a breakthrough sensation in application as the vibrating brush, combined with an exquisitely smooth formula, wraps every lash up to 360°. You’re lashes will be utterly transformed before your eyes.

Benefits
  • Spectacularly multiplies, extends and separates lashes instantly
  • Smoothes on evenly and effortlessly for a flawless application every time

Technology
  • Micro-Oscillation Technology ensures every lash is fully wrapped 360°, thanks to the perfect deposit of the formula
  • Ultra Fine Dispersion Formula with Fine‑Coating Complex provides a creamy, fluid texture


It retails for RM12O.
(I know it's expensive but technology does pay, right?!)

What are you thought on this high tech beauty item?

Do you think it makes sense? 
Have you heard of this?
Do you think its cool and high tech?
Do you think its worth your hard earned money?
Do you think its functional?
Do you its just a gimmick or a scam?
Has anyone you know tried it out?
Would you spend that much for a mascara?

*Personally, I would purchase this mascara if I had that much money to throw around...^_^

    1. No, they won't vibrate. The vibrations is supposed to coat mascara evenly on your lashes thus darker, fuller and longer looking lashes^^
